Now this is a quote I can get behind! Honest, intellegent, and non-hurtful to the players. It gives well thought out response that doesn't bring the team down. The players read these message boards and need encouragement, praise, and people to get behind them no matter what the situation is! Thanks Warrior

HAHAHA!!! P-spy, I look forward to you getting on this every season. It makes me laugh and realize how much of an idiot you really are!!! Could you please get behind the players and stop acting like a woman, running your mouth and starting rumors. Summer workouts haven't even started yet and all you want to do is tear the team down. Its people like you that always look for the bad and never recognize the good things that happen. Oh well, maybe one day you will change your ignorant ways but until then I will continue to enjoy your stupid, ignorant, D.A., uneducated, illiterate, and naive posts. Until next post, stay DUMB!!!

Who are some names for replacements for the coaching staff? Losing 8 coaches is tough but you would think they would want to hire quick so they can get their new coaching staff together to help push the guys during summer workouts.

Any scores or updates on how the teams in the district are doing so far this season?

What are some predictions and info about teams in 8AA district for this season? Will Dekalb Co and Smith Co be able to make it back to the state tournament? Can't believe the season is already here!

Has anyone been to a practice so far? I know practice with pads started Monday, any news or scores from 7 on 7? I'm to anxious for the season to start! Go Lions

CCINSIDER = IDIOT!!! He is more of a coach than you will ever be!!! He and the players did an awesome job last season and I can't wait till fall starts to see what the Lions have to offer this season. Good luck LIONS

"Who is going to run the defense??? Seems Shrenk is going about coaching similar to what goes on down at the baseball fields....heard rumor he is using parents as coaches???? There are some local parents who have played football at the college level and that maybe who he has gotten to help...let's hope so... The big question is who is going to run his offense and the BIGGER question is who is going to run the defensive side of the ball??????? GOOD LUCK TO THE LIONS AND AS ALWAYS I WILL BE THERE TO CHEER THEM ON AND POST THINGS THAT SOME PEOPLE DON'T WANT TO HERE....THE TRUTH....." P-Spy I usually agree with most of the things you post but whats with slamming Schrenk? He seemed to do a good job last season if I remember, or do we have short memories? How does Schrenk coach similar to what goes on at baseball fields??? The team will be down with talent level from memory of who should be coming back but play calling wont make any difference. This will be an inexperienced team but a team that will also give everything it takes to win on the field. I for one am pumped to know spring football is a week or so away, can't wait to see what we have to get excited about!!! GO LIONS!!!

I could be wrong but doesn't Livingston only have 3 district wins. Cannon Co & York play next Monday: If Cannon Co can sweep York then they will finish 4th and Livingston will finish 5th. Once again I could be wrong. What is everyones district record?

Dakalb plays Cannon Co.

Does anyone know the official district standing to this point? let me know if i'm wrong Upperman 5-1 Smith 4-2 Livingston 2-2 Dekalb 1-3 Cannon 1-3 York 0-4

How are the teams in 8AA doing so far this year? District play starts today, post scores as soon as they come in. Livingston @ Smith Dekalb @ Upperman Cannon @ York

Well I never claimed to know everything about this district just my opinion. But if I am soo wrong let me know what your predictions are.

Since baseball season is just around the corner & practice has started lets start getting some district predictions. Here are my predicions: 1. Upperman 2. Livingston Academy 3. Dekalb 4. Cannon Co. 5. York 6. Smith Let me know what you think.

You know, I have been around for a while but rarely get on here and post anything. Just felt like it was time to give my 2 cents worth...Cannon County football was very successful this season *2009 8AA District Champions*, this success starts with the players and coaches. The coaches did a great job making a transition for a wing t offense to the spread offense. There is always a difficult period when trying to make changes like this, but the players did a great job studying and working as hard as they could. The coaches did a great job working with the players making the season very enjoyable. Whether you like the coaches or not its always difficult for players to adjust to a coach when you have had 3 coaches in 4 years. The community was great supporting the players and making this season for everyone very special. "We Believed" When it comes to coaching changes or any other decisions that are made they are always difficult to handle at first then its time to move on. The D-Coordinator did a great job motivating and getting the players in the right spots to succeed. With that being said there has to be something with him being let go 2 years in a row. Coach Schrenk has every right to bring back or let go any coach he wants to, ultimately its his job on the line. If Coach Schrenk feels he will succeed better without the D-Coordinator then so be it. Most of us on here posting are just fans and don't know anything about what goes on behind closed doors. I hope the guys are working harder in the weight room than they ever have before. They now know what it takes to make the playoffs and what it will take to make it farther than this year. To the players and coaches: Great job this season, keep working hard and don't pay any attention to the negative stuff. Can't wait till the 2010 season begins and we can capture another District title!!!

Have you ever stopped to think the football players read these posts, they read these posts because they want to see who is backing them and who is predicting them to win. It might be time for a change...but please stop with your stupid posts about Coach T, wait till after the season, start your on website or something. Get behind the players and show some support. If that is too hard for you to do then that makes me think you were one of the players that didn't put in the effort to be good and see the playing field...If you are mad because you didn't get the "ball" enough when you played stop living in the past, move away and root for another team or something. Football coaching goes way beyond X's and O's especially at Richland! Lynnville doesn't produce enough top end athletic ability. Coach T means a lot to a lot of people. The ones that don't like Coach T are the ones that didn't put the effort in and didn't care about anything but being in the football picture for the yearbook. Coach T's door is always open for anybody that ever played for him, past or present...You should know that, if you don't then you probably need to check yourself! I am a true Raider fan, Black and Orange through and through...If its time for change its time for change but stop with all your negative posts get out show some support, and if you really don't like whats going on go to Coach T let him know what you think and volunteer your "knowledge" if you have any! To all the Raider players that read these posts, keep your heads up, play hard, and always give everything you have when you put on your jersey. Your memories are only as good as you make them! Good luck the rest of the way! 18

First off to all the "true Raider" fans and most importantly players, keep your heads up and keep playing hard! In my opinion success is achieved by way of hard work, responsibility, accountability, and a desire for a player to fill whatever role the team may need him to play. Also, success among a team will never be achieved without all persons in the program (including parents) seeking to achieve the same goals. I haven't been around Richland for 10 years but I still cherish every memory that I have of being a true Richland Raider. Coach Taylor meant more to me than anyone else I ever came across in my time during high school. Having grown up and becoming a coach I now realize how smart Coach Taylor is. Football goes beyond X's and O's, most people don't understand this. Coach T is a great motivator, competitor, and leader! Richland doesn't have the talent pool year in and year out to win 8-10 games, much less compete for a state championship. Talent goes in cycles in Lynnville, every 5-6 years a talented class will come through that will take the football team to the playoffs. I don't care who the coach is, it will never change. Coach T is not the problem. If you are a parent and you are upset, take a step back just for 1 min. Trully look at your football team. How good is your child? If you are the ones that sit behind a computer your kid is most likely TERRIBLE!!! The truth hurts I know, if you really care about your kid and the Richland football program PLEASE do whatever it takes to make your son, friends, teammates, managers, coaches, and whoever else better. Lift there spirits don't tear them down! And if you really have a problem I have a great solution.... GO SEE COACH TAYLOR, guaranteed you don't have what it takes to listen to the truth the man will tell you!!! Coach Taylor, Thanks for making my memories of football great. Thanks for always being there when I needed to someone to talk to. Thanks for making me a better man. and Thanks for making me a better Coach, I am glad to be a fellow coach and thankful to have played under you. 18
