Maynord's still the HC and Principal at Smith Co. He's been there about 10 years.

Nitro14, I agree with you on the wing T but I was willing to add some of his plays to my playbook to expose the kids to a different style. (We did score a few times when we called "waggle 8"!) Something else that may help would be to have coaching clinics for the youth league coaches. Not only to teach the coaches the basic fundamentals, but to also teach how to deal with young kids. There are a few coaches that you hear constantly screaming for these kids to "hit somebody". The problem is, they're not teaching the kids how to hit correctly. I know I'm getting off subject focusing on the youth league but I think we lose too many kids there that could've been a good ball player at the HS level. As for Britton leaving FCHS, I thought he'd get one more year. I think it's the "win now" syndrome. I don't see him coming back to WC though. I did find it interesting to see the post about him going to Cannon Co. as Head Coach. That would put him in the same region as Coach Maynord @ Smith County who also used to coach at Riverdale.

That would be a heck of a catch if WC could get him.

Wrench, that's a very good question that could be directed toward any position on the team. I'm an outsider looking in and one of the big problems that I see (or hear) is all the negativity in Warren County around football and other sports. I moved here 10 years ago and immediately got involved in the youth program and one of the 1st things that I noticed was when the new high school coach got involved with it was all the criticism directed toward him and he had not even coached the first play yet. "He wasn't a native son", "we don't like the wing T offense." "He don't know what it takes to motivate these kids." He never stood a chance. These kids are very impressionable and when they hear all of this, alot of them start believing it to. Unfortunately all of this negativity starts in the youth league. This coach don't like that coach. The officials are pitiful (never mind the fact that they're HS kids helping out) My favorite, which was directed toward me, "He's not from here, how does he know who these kids are?" I thought at first that "who = talent". I found out later that "who = who the mommas and daddies were." Things like this happen everywhere but it seems to be much worse here. But, I will say that I had more OUTSTANDING parents that helped me than I did negative ones. You can take it for what it's worth but I got to see many more kids of those outstanding parents playing on Friday nights than I did the not so outstanding ones! Ok, that's my opinion as an outsider. I'm not saying I'm right or wrong, it's just my observation. /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

OK, I know how to settle this. An MTV reality show where band members go through football practice with the team and then the football team goes through band practice with the band members. /bored.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":bored:" border="0" alt="bored.gif" /> /popcorneater.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":popcorneater:" border="0" alt="popcorneater.gif" />

Refresh my memory. How many young ladies left the WC program and are contributing on other teams this year? About 4?

Oh to be in Van Buren Co. at tipoff! /popcorneater.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":popcorneater:" border="0" alt="popcorneater.gif" />

1. York 2. Smith Co. / Westy 3 4.Cannon Co. Two words----MELLLLLLVIIIIN YOOOUUUUUNNNNNGGG! 5. Upperman. 6. Jackson Co.

2024, congrats to you guys for a good year. See ya in 08.

I don't normally act as the coachT spell checker, but I cracked up over this one considering what this topic turned into! Sorry! OK, now back to football.

Too bad WC doesn't have a few more Nitros out there. /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

Curiosity killed the cat?!?!

MO$$$$, you should've seen the man at the 5A game tonight. He'd been sipping on some juice and tumbled down about three rows of bleachers and smacked into the concrete walkway! Do the drinkers only come out during the playoffs?

Legend, If I would've known your were at the games all day I would've looked you up. I was there for all 5 games.

Well we've probably run into each other a few times then. The first group of kids that I coached in youth league consisted of a few of the seniors from this year and last year's team. My second year we moved up an age group so I had some seniors from two years ago also.

Zone, congrats to SP on a heck of a game. I pull in the parking lot just a few minutes after kickoff and the scoreboard is flashing TOUCHDOWN. SP's 2nd score. Your O did what everybody expected. Your D picked it up alot. Again, congrats. See ya at Willowbrook!

I made it to the game late. (Dang Boss actually wanted me to work on Friday afternon, during football season!) I pulled into the parking lot and saw the scoreboard flashing TOUCHDOWN. SP had just scored their 2nd TD. No, I didn't get to speak either gentleman. I was going to try to find them after the game but they appeared to be a little excited about something last night!?!?!? Hey, I thought you knew better than to eat asian food. Did you eat at the place on Hwy. 25?

Settle down and think for a second doogie. There is an EAST bracket and a WEST bracket. MTP was in the WEST bracket. Now that wasn't so bad, was it?

You gotta show up to have a bad game! We voted, you get a free "do over" Try again. /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

Yea, that guy was the best. I think he'd been sipping on the corn liquor just a little.

I've been thinking about it. I haven't broken out the check book yet. /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

The silence is defeaning! Good luck to both teams. Today is why you worked hard all summer

Phoenix, are you associated with the youth league in WC?

I can't wait to see that P

You said you had the link to the all upper cumberland team. Now who was in the corn whiskey last week /biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> Are you going tomorrow to the 'boro? Give me a yell if you do.
