I think there was still a transfer of schools involved in that move anyway that is what I heard from a real reliable source. :angry: As for Cousins, remember, he is a 1st Cousin, once removed. Further, you're both car salesmen and you know what that means when you lips move. Almost like lawyers, weasel words. I may pop off but don't use a lot of that weasel word stuff.

I'll tell you why Harriman's numbers are lower. When they were a city school system, the city borders were the district lines. When the county took over, those lines have remained pretty much the same with the exception of a few roads close to Oakdale.

Right now, kids in Swan Pond that live closer to Harriman go to Kingston and kids that live in the Webster Pike area go to OS instead of Harriman. I really don't know about kids going to Rockwood that could go to Harriman instead, but I'm sure there are a few.

If and when Roane County rezones, Harriman would grow at the expense of those three schools. I know the county school board didn't want to make a lot of changes when the move happened and that's why it hasn't happened yet and it may not.

Hopefully, when they do or decide not to make the change, the only factor they will look at is a kid's education or shortening of a bus ride. I'd hate to think football politics plays a role.

I think Harriman will win this one just on a gut feeling 28-24. I find it hard to believe that Coalfiled will be any bigger, faster or more physical than Kingston or Sequoyah. They held Sequoyah to 7 points through 3 1/2 quarters even with one of the best wide outs in the state and Kingston really struggled to move the ball at all against them. It should be a very exciting game but I would not be surprised to see it be a Low scoring defensive battle

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
