  1. How bout a hint boxanone who are you? Seems like I should know you.
  2. Where do you coach now EastTNCoachTeach? We can use all the good coaches we can get /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> However, we have a very real problem at Wartburg. There are no teaching positions, Coach Davis has 1 fauclty asst. That is a really big problem when other teams in the Reg. have 5-7 people on the sidelines each game. What do we do to get more people in considering teaching positions are set and people that aren't interested in coaching have tenure and no intention of leaving? I wonder how many schools in our Region have strength and conditioning coaches? I bet quite a few do! We don't because we don't have people on faculty willing to help out! People in the community might be able to help some but until faculty members become active I don't see us being very good! Just my two cents
  3. I guess that's why UH's strenght of scheduld is 80th Look if both teams play as well as they can the dogs win by about 3 in my opinion........I'll even give you a sample score Wartburg 71 UH 68 now how bout you? Lets hear some predictions!
  4. Wartburg has the height advantage overall! Bigdave's gameday prediction Wartburg by 3 in a very close game /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> The dog's overall size, speed, and hunger is too much for UH's boys! Wartburg has played a much tougher schedule 40th 21-8 UH has played the 80th ranked schedule in A ball 27-8 I think Winstead, Rogers, Kidd, Bunch, and Nelson will provide a difficult situation for a team that will obviously be keying on DJ Good Luck tonight boys wish I could be there to watch you! Lets take it to the boro!
  5. You're right! The game is now like a job for most kids!
  6. Now Coach Layne is not a good game coach and everyone points their finger at him for our resurrection but Jeremy Shannon and D.J. Shannon took us out of the losers bracket and past mediocrity. Say what you want about their attitudes and the fact neither will probably play college ball, they are and were very good high school basketball players and our school should put up their pictures in the gym lobby for leading us into post season play. I have no doubt that the run the dogs have been on of late is very good but the two men that are the reason that the dogs are in contention are Joe Layne and Lyndell Goldston. People forget that prior to goldston the dogs were a door mat and were lucky to win 12 games in a season. During his time the program enjoyed success on the District Level, Layne has taken them to the point now where they are a regional power. I am not trying to take anything away from the Shannon boys at all! They've worked hard and are great ballplayers! Layne is a good game coach Period!
  7. 4 times could be crazy! /biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
  8. Two great players. Look forward to watching them at the next level!
  9. Webb is one of the better teams that I've ever seen.
  10. Who won it? When do they announce?
  11. Wartburg boys have a pretty good coach also. I'ld look for him to have his team ready as well. I expect a great game! Go Dogs!
  12. Floridagirl, Box and 1 Commonly known as a junk defense This defense uses four defenders playing zone defense in the standard "box" set-up. Two defenders are on the low blocks, and two are up at the elbows. The fifth defender plays man-to-man defense against the star player. This defense may work best against a team with a good point-guard or perimeter player. I should charge for this stuff There it is I was the first to uncover the mystery of the box and 1! I should be the next coach at CHS /biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" /> ....errr, well, ummmmmm...wait a minute...anyway could we put this nonsense to bed now and get behind our boys who have a BIGGGGG game on Monday?
  13. All I know is their middle school team plays pretty well and is constantly in the top 2 or 3 in area 2. It is possible that some kids just don't want to put the time in to high school sports.....and we as coaches shouldn't try to force them to. Fact is if you push kids that don't want to play in to the gym you will just be setting yourself up for a letdown. After seeing this years district and region tournament it's clear your heart has got to be in it 150% to compete and win. Coach the kids that want to be a part, make sure that it's cool to be a ballplayer and you'll have plenty of kids that want to play.
  14. I have Coached against the mighty Indians....you probably are thinking about another player. My playin days were so few, you probably wouldn't remember em.....I barely do /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" />
  15. I have little to do with football but you are getting warmer.... /biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />
  16. I know that you weren't saying that West couldn't coach....I looked back at my post and can see where you thought I may have got that sorry. I'm just saying you have got to trust in the program to pull through this possible bump in the road. Things will be ok in the land of O O One i i i da in the very near future. They have some good young talent coming up so in time, it'll be fine. It may be your guys district when we get to the post Christopher era! Right now we could all be playing for second.
