Excellent post disgustedfan!!! I hope that your support for the program will be there in years to come. Your the type of fan that we need. One that doesnt just see a winning record and who is only happy when the team wins. The future teams will be fun to watch with the talent and more important love of the game that the younger players have. Thank you for your loyal support and for seeing the truth in Coach Hunt.

Thanks disguted fan, I have enjoyed reading your comments about the team and are glad that you have stuck by Coach Hunt and the team. I appreciate your support and hope that you enjoy the future seasons to come.

The Cavs are still alive and will face Oakland again tomorrow. I truly believe that we can beat oakland since we have had the lead in every game and the fact that we still have alot of pitching left while oakland has used their top pitchers. It will be a good game while the winner will face the loser between riverdale and blackman.

I hope to god that everyone will realize how dedicaed Coach Hunt is to the program and that will see that he deserves to stay at Cookeville for years to come. I will step up and fight for him if it comes down to it with the school-board. He has my up-most respect and he defines the word "winner".

Hey Micheal, well our season hasnt gone so well as you might have read on this post, but our team is coming together at the right time, district tourny. As for myself, I hurt my elbow during the first scrimmage before the season, so I havent gotten to pitch during the season and that hurt my scholarship chances. I had heard about some really good JUCO schools that were interested but I had been waiting to hear from Coach Petterson at MTSU. I had talked to him before the season started but I dont know if he knows about my arm, so I will probably walk-on at MTSU and play for him. But good luck on the rest of the season man, and hope that we meet up again sometime.

disgustedfan, did you ever ball for marty cook growing up? I'm just trying to figure out who you are. We all appreciate your support for our baseball program at chs and would like to know who you are.

Ok I am really tired of hearing all of the excuses being made about the Cavs season. All of the coaching changes, Coach Hunt's decisions, lack of talent, etc...First off, the Cavs have alot of talent that returned from last season and second of all no one and I mean no one deserves the right to blame anything on Coach Hunt. He prepared our team for the season and has sacrificed more than any coach that I have ever heard of. He cant make the plays on the field or make the decisions for the players. If anyone should take the blame, I will. The lack of leadership has been present and the seniors know this. We will be ready for the challenge ahead of us in the district tournament. But the excuses have to stop because the players have to step up and play the game that Coach Hunt taught us to play. I have never had more respect for any coach than I have for Coach Hunt because his morals and ethics are what make him a winner, not our season record.

Ofcourse I remember Michael Green. Thanks for the interest man. How are things going for you now a days? Are you still playing baseball or sticking to basketball? I still havent seen any other basketball player break an entire team's press like you did back in our AAU days. Are you going to play in college? I'll get back to you later on man, thanks again for the interest.

123dp, your right in alot of what you said, some players on the cavs team are individuals, but the "team" is coming around. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to take anything away from Clouse and Rogowski when I say something about them, it's just that alot of us have grown up with them and know them too well. They know us as well just the same. But riverdale does have a good program, but they can be beaten. Just like any other team in the district.

wacot, you have to be kidding me. First of all, the seniors pitchers for the Cavs are great pitchers, Barrett and Robby are doing a great job but arent getting any help, and with Wade Bilbrey, Micheal Alcorn, and Evan Dyer in the rotation, it's a great pitching staff. For you to say we dont compare to Kyle Copeland from Livingston, thats a mistake. Your post was horrible, and it makes me believe that you dont know much about talent. We can compete with anyone in our district and we know that, we just have to play as a team to prove it. Dont even think that Sparta's pitching is better, we hit Rogowski and Clouse everytime we face them, and we win. So dont talk about our talent level unless you know how to judge talent.

jon227 has a good idea of what to do. I would center my workouts for pitchers around the legs and rotator cuff muscles. Your legs have to last in order to pitch well. Build up your legs in the gym every other day while having a running program in between workouts. The rotator cuff muscles have to be developed more than anything though. I would base the workouts around some theraband and small weighted dumbells like 2 to 3 lbs. to begin with. No pitcher needs to have a huge upper body, he should be flexible. After a long period of workouts I would put in a serious long-toss program. Long-toss is a key for pitchers.

The Cavs are away on mon. and tues. but home on wed,thurs,fri,and sat. for a tourny

The Cavs know that they can compete against any team they face. Whenever an error is made or someone makes a mistake, the team just seems to lose its momemtum. This problem has been fixed, and the Cavs are ready to play to their potential.

It's not right to judge a coach unless you have played under them. No one should judge the coaches from 7-AAA, they are all good coaches.

Coach Hunt has done a great job with the program, and the team is coming together. It's all about to turn around. I dont think that he should even worry about next year, because Coach Hunt will have a winning program, and the kids want him to stay. Parents should keep their mouths shut, because they should agree with the coaches decisions and help the team instead of creating all of this negative talk.
