You keep saying they don't quit like last years team. I don't reacall anybody quiting on last years team. But you're right. They aren't like last years team in one way. They're 0 and 4!!! And fumble the ball 4 times as much. And they have an easier schedule this year than years past.
WOW JC has the same record as DB!!!
No, they don't quit. That is the thing I love about their character as young men.
I NEVER said "like last years team", you put words in my mouth that are NOT there.
I did not imply that either. Never would. If you think that, you are miss reading my post.
You need to read the post and not put words on my post that do not exist.
I sat in the stands until the last second ticked off the clock in every game last season and will continue to do so this season.
Last years team had a Sr QB that is now playing at Carson Newman and a Sr Running Back who is playing at UTC and I do not recall us winning but only one game after McFall was injured and out for the season and that was against Cocke-Co. You may want to look at the whole record as we are 1 and 11 since McFall went out last year. There are plenty of turnovers to go around since that night.
Also, I am not sure how you figure this years schedule is easier? We went on the road to Greene County , again. Then play a preseason top 5 team with a D1 prospect as their running back. Then go on the road against an undefeated SC, who spanked DB last night. Then have to go on the road AGAIN against a team that had a 10-0 halftime lead on that preseason top 5 team you played 2 weeks ago. So we have played 3 road games and 1 home game vs a preseason top 5 team and this is an easier schedule, HOW???????
GO PATRIOTS!!!
More Cowbell is coming!!!! Fear the Cowbell!!! Join the Cowbell nation.
Whats McFall got to do with anything?? We won one game when he was QB (Greeneville), were losing against Campbell county when he went out in the 1st quarter and Darby took over (we won the game) cause we got mad (and didn't quit) and we won against Cocke County. Would the season have been different if he had not got hurt? I would like to think so but who knows? We dang near beat the snot out of Bearden last game last year but lost on a trick play, after a turn over. For that matter every team we played last year win or lose was limping off the field. Remember DB or SH? This was supposed to be the "undefeated Freshman" team to regain the past of JC football. What happened???? I don't see the focus or commitment from this team as in years past or the phyiscal smash mouth football that is supposed to be JC. Don't miss understand me. Some players on this team have that drive. Maybe your kid is one of them, but as a team, overall it's not there. At least not yet. How do you instill that into a 15-18 yr old kid? Peer leadership, parents, and coaches need to do their part, but the kids have got to have the want and will to do what it takes through the week, not just on Firday night. And by the way, there are several other players besides McFall (CN) and Brooks (UTC) from last years team that are playing on Saturday's now. I really hope this team turns things around the rest of the season.
