No. Garland played QB, he's been here all along. The new kid didn't see the field today.

I got to see Newport play for the 2nd week in a row since they played on Saturday again, and The QB I saw play tonight was the same kid who played QB for them in the 2nd half against Frankfort, and he did a fine job obviously by helping lead the team to 34 points. Which for the people who were there, they know Newport left about 50 points out there because of 2 touchdowns being called back on penalties, and then also messing up a snap inside the 5 yard line. So the offense got on track this week with Garland at QB, but still have things to clean up like with the penalties. However it was much improved and the Defense and special teams also had really good nights for them.

 

Tonight's game has to be encouraging for the Newport players and staff because they know they had a lot of mistakes but yet still was in control all game. Newport has showed that with their close defeat last week against Frankfort which they could have easily won, and then with the victory tonight that they could be a team that will turn some heads this season.

I also want to say from what I seen tonight, Bellevue is a team that is going back in the right direction. Coach Eckstein and people did a great job going out and finding a head coach that would get back to how they do things at Bellevue, and get them back in the right direction that Coach Eckstein had them going in. Even though it was a losing effort tonight, you can just see the new head coach has Bellevue going back on its way up after a down year last year. They play really hard, run the ball well, and fly around on defense. Which is exactly what Bellevue football has always been about.

 

This Newport vs Bellevue rivalry that has developed is going to be fun for people to see for years to come.

Sounds like Newport is the real deal. Congrats to them!

Come on coach Shear never had a chance there last year they hired him late in the year and never had the support of the AD or the full administration from the very beginning. He took a team that had no players returning and had a nice season. As i recall he even won a playoff game. So before we go saying this new guy has them headed back to the promise land lets not go back and kick the old coach.

[Shredding Defenses]

Amen! Didn't Bellevue beat Newport last year????

Newport has some fast athletes and it obviously showed in this game. Garland is one of those kids who will also be a major contributor on the hardwood this winter.

Wildcats came out ready from the get go, they scored on their first play from scrimmage on a very nice playcall that had #21 wide open all by himself for the td catch. Before you knew it Newport had a 24-0 lead. Could have been 38-0 if it wasnt for 2 fumbles deep in Bellevue territory with one being unforced with first and goal from the 3. Bellevue did fight back and take advantage of the miscues and I believe they scored off both turnovers to make the score 24-12. They could have easily called it a night being down 24 early but they did fight back and tried to get themselves back in the game. Newport had a couple tds called back on penalties which they really need to get cleaned up because they cant afford to keep having scores coming off the board due to penalty.

 

Bellevue's kick return team was beyond bad, if Im the Bellevue coach I might have a whole new 11 on that team next week. They let the Wildcats recover two kickoffs which really werent even onside kicks, the tigers just failed to get on the football. No excuse for not recovering those two kicks.

I agree; you definitely make a good point.

Never once was a shot at Coach Shear, I know who Coach Shear is and believe he is a good coach. I know it is to hard for any coach to only have one year, especially when everyone knew last year would be more of a rebuiling year for them. However as you said he never seemed to have the full support from the very beginning, which just made it a bad match. No more, no less. You read way to much into that, because it was not a shot at him. All I was saying is it seems like Bellevue got a guy now that is a good match for them. It's hard to be a successful coach if you don't have the full support of people, so it just made it a bad match. It was better for both parties probably for the split, Coach Shear is a good coach and I am sure he will get another chance and deserves too. You just read way to much into that, and it by no means was to be a shot at him. I'm sorry if it came off that way, because it was not suppose to. It was just more giving support to the current coaches for this year.

Good summary of the game.

[THEDUDEABIDES]

The game was loaded with mistakes on both sides of the ball, Newport just did a better job on capitalizing on those mistakes.

 

I agree with future coach...the coach Bellevue has now is what Bellevue needed. He has the numbers back up that dropped drastically last year and so far has managed to do the little things right that the last coach didn't do.
