Couldn't have said it better myself notice nobody got a reply to that! Thanks Logcabinman

Ok here is my take. Back in the old days when I played. I played for Huffman HS in B'ham, AL. Alot of our upper classmen me included had jobs so they could have cars buy gas etc in the summer. We had to be at work at 7AM so at Central you got a choice have a car and spend money or play on football team. Our Coaches opened up the Workout Room from 7 to 10 and 5 til 7 so we could get our workout done. Nothing about soft or lazy oh by the way we went to the 1/4 finals in the state in the larges schools 4A down there then. These boys want to play but want a car, ins & pocket money. Every kid doen't have a mon or dad that will furnish the car gas & pocket money. Why not just try and make a flex schedule so we can keep these upper classmen

Hey Rumple, My son is a 17 year old good young man. I'm 50 years old and have not said one thing neg. I have tried to point y'all in the direction to improve the program on how to keep our upper classmen but all we get is gutter talk (fire him, last hit, etc..) . Like I told Tony do not reply to the BS posts best thing to do is be positive and wish the best for the program us older guys should know that you get alot further with sugar than spice

Ok Son of mine. I gave some sugestions about keeping the JR & SR on the team. A flex schedule in summer workouts where you could come in the morning or evening so you can have a job. Can you think of anything they could do different to keep the upper classmen as we had 20 JR last year and only had 8 to play their SR year. Just ignor the BS post you reply to them that just feeds them. Marc Preskitt

I think we would keep alot more if we had flex schedules summer work out in AM & PM so the boys could have a job & play sports and by the way it's not just Boys Football its basketball too only 1 sr on it. Y'all know why McMinn had a great year they had 18 SR on roster. Once again 17 to 18 yr old boys against 14,15,16 kids we all know who wins

Thank you Log cabinman, Now lets move on please and get some ideas how to keep our Jrs & Srs. This is the problem with I'm sure all Boys Varsity sports

Ok how many Dist champs has the Boys gotten in the last 10 years not the girls. Golf 5 or 6 kids, cross country 3 or 4 kids. I think they need to look at a way to keep the upper classman in the programs. Last year in football we had 20 JRs this year we had 8 SR where did they go? Spoke with a Mom today she said this was her son's last year he will be a JR next year because he wants a job and a car. Could we be putting too much of these kids time into a sport, maybe it would be better to be less taxing on thier time so they can have a job and play sports. I think we lose alot of the upper classmen to this.

You know you put a team with 17 or 18 year old boys against our 14, 15 & 16 year old boys who do you think will win? Does anyone have any idea of why we are losing so may upper classmen in Boys Varsity Sports?

ok back to the previous discussion did y'all know the Boys basketball team only has 1 SR this year

ok here my take it ain't the coaching it's keeping the kids in the program. We had 9 seniors this year & 5 I think last year. Yea this group of kids the Seniors from this year and last year in their Freshman & Soph years went ot Alcoa and had them beat in a JR Varsty game but let it slip away. Y'all say yea got alot of very good 7th & 8th graders coming in but how to you keep them. We lost over16 Jrs & SR before we played our 1st game. Y'all figure out a way to keep um and they will win. My son's Freshman & Soph year we had 13 or 14 just SR and alot of JRs. He Grad this year sure hope y'all can figure this out.

This is a big game for both teams if Central wins and Sweetwater beats Seq they get into the playoffs. If Sweetwater wins and beats Seq they are in playoffs. If this doesn't get both teams fired up nothing will. This should be a good game. Got to go with My Chargers 26-21

Yup I'm a REAL Charger Fan and proud of it. Orig from Ala so I played in Ala not a Charger E-Lum. If our boys bring there "A" game we win but if we play like Friday night we get pounded. It's up to our kids to bounce back and I'm sure they will. Central 28, Kingston 21

Well Sonny Moore's Power ranking has My Chargers winning by 3 should be a good game as long as our boys and yours both come to play

hey where are all the Sequoyah fans are they going to support thier team?

thanks man that was it
