I go to Lambuth University and I am a baseball player there. I work in the sports information dept. so I got to see all of their games. Last year, they won their conference, but then lost in the 1st round of the NAIA playoffs in North Dakota. Lambuth has an excellant coaching staff led by Vic Wallace. They lost the the NAIA tackle leader from last year, starting QB, start wide-out, Starting safety, and a couple of lineman. They have a bunch of talent returning including RB Kevin Haynes, who is the quickest person I have seen carry the ball. This year they will have a great d-line, with a couple of transfers coming in. The question marks for this year are QB, WR, OL, and the secondary. Congrats to all these young men for coming to a fine institution.

Lambuth will have to replace a really good QB in Jon Finch.

Yes, Jonathan Finch was a true inspiration to the team and students on campus. He played all of last year with a broken right arm, which is his throwing arm. You should have seen the x-rays of the thing it was snap in half. Knowing it was his last season, he played through the pain and led his team to victory many times. Jon Finch is a great role model to all who knows him.

 

Lambuth does need some more WR after losing their deep threat of Matt Davenport. They also lost a great saftey by the name of Bobby Antee, he could play in the NFL if scouts would give him a look.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
