Oh my gosh, you have to be kidding here. Are you talking about FUlton High School Knoxville, TN? Remember one thing, Fulton only have about 10 people total in their band and I don' t think they would be consider for this award.

 

 

Now in my opinion, the best dancing bands I've seen are

Chattanooga Brainerd

Chattanooga Howard

 

They're football teams might not be good but their bands are like WHOA!!!

 

Now PartyMan, when you say Best Band, you need to have a category for a dancing band and one for a regular band..

While inner city Memphis football may lag behind the rest of the state, Memphis bands have to be considered the best.  Whitehaven is my personal favorite.  You have not seen a halftime show until you've seen Whitehaven's!  If anyone has seen the movie Drumline you have a vague idea what I'm talking about.

Whitehaven, by far, has to be the best "showband". They have all the ingredients that you are looking for in a showband. Size, sound, precision marching, Pizazz in their routines. Their band fills up the football field it's so big! This band travels every year to different "Battle of the Bands" competitions throughout the country, and they usually place in the top 3! They host their own "Battle of the Bands" competition every year during the 'Heritage Kickoff Classic' between JSU and TSU. They have bands from across the country to come and participate! I'm not exaggerating about the SIZE of the band ... their band is the size of a university's band. Many musicians throughout the city come to Whitehaven to be a part of the band program at Whitehaven. They are responsible for a lot of their band members getting scholarships to college. They are known for their bands! I think the band booster club is bigger then the football team's booster club. No lie.

Wow, is there a website where I can order a copy of that Band Competition that Whitehaven host?  I've seen Chattanooga Brainerds and Howards band but I would love to see another band similar or better then those two. 

 

How's J. South Side Band?  Are they a dancing band or just a regular marching band?

AERoadrunners, I don't know of a website. I bet if you contacted the school you could get a copy through those channels. I think, in years past, a school from the east part of Tennessee has participated in the past. I'm not sure though.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • 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.
