Butchie Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 What difference does it make who he throws to if the play gains yardage? Smith is a great receiver---and he might be double covered which will allow someone else to be open. Score and win games---play team ball. I guess im in last year withdrawls. But anyone who knows bugs knows hes a teamplayer even though i may not be. Im a true rebel fan, and would love to see the rebels win it all God knows it's been a long time coming no matter who catches, or runs the ball. I just want all the weapons used.

I have no doubt that Bugs Smith is the best athlete on the team, and he should be used to his full potential. You mentioned using all the weapons----I am still in wonderment about why Keegan Ball was pulled out of the backfield last year after he pounded for good yardage and several touchdowns in the first 3 or four games. He was getting good yardage and then BOOM we start running a no back offense. Go figure. With a balanced passing and running game, the Rebs should have a good year. Pass defense needs to tighten up, and kick off coverage HAS to improve. Correct those problems, and we can make some noise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sauce, I agree we need to play team ball and I completely believe the Rebels will do just that. As for last season and why we went away from the run with Keegan, Huntingdon probably did that to us. For three weeks in a row we went up against teams that we couldn't control the line of scrimmage enough to run the ball. We were only "backless" against those three teams (Huntingdon--which we tried to run on, Union City and Lake Co.) We were doing what the coaching staff felt we needed to do for those critical games. It almost got to that against JCS too!!! In short, the Rebels did what they had to do to get where they got!!!! Ya' gotta respect that! This season may well be a bellweather season for the coaching staff at McKenzie!? The potential is there to make this one of the best season's in several years for the Rebels and we'll all see if that is close to what happens. This could easily be an 8-2 or 7-3 season for the Rebels (MAYBE 9-1) so let's set back and see what they can do with it!! I'm hoping for 10-0 myself at the end of regular season!!!!! That would be a trip! Edited August 22, 2006 by duckman38201 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
