Not a bad coach at all it seems, just seems like the players don't care.

Hmm... they cared enough to beat you tonight. Good try though. Final WC 14 PTown 11

Good game tonight boys. Hard fought game and just some stupid calls and stuff like that. Wilson Central is the most disrespectful team in this district. They earned the win but showed poor sportsmenship after the game towards Portland and the coaching staff.

Now that the season is in the books for Portland, the question is how long can the former coaches be blamed for the current state of the football program. It appears to me that with an "0 for 09" showing, you either have to say that you have "another" bad staff or realize the facts as they truly are, the talent in Portland is not what it once was.

 

I do believe there will be a couple of wins for this team next year, but it will be just that... A couple. I guess the real question is whether the people of Portland will finally realize this or will the tenure of this staff be shortlived as well. I mean I could really see a two season record of 2-18, 1-19, or 0-20. Far cry then of blaming the "former" staff.

 

Just my opinion...

So does this fall on the coaches' shoulders?

 

I honestly do not believe that Portland has the athletes that the teams they are playing have. Nor do I believe they had them over the past couple of years. Not sure what the deal is/was with WC. They showed glimpses of being a good team throughout the year, but could never seem to put it all together for a complete game.

partly, but the coaches can only push so hard until its up to the players to decide wheather or not they want to have a successful season.. WC has had multiple personal fouls in many games.. an example like that yes it is the coaches fault i say sit them for a game and i bet thell think about it before they do it

Dang, when does the excuse well run dry for Portland? Bad calls, former coaches, injuries, playing bigger schools, inexperience, other teams playing dirty.......wah wah wah :blink:

No doubt it will be tough. I just don't see them going 0 and 9 or 0 and 10 after this season. It might be wishful thinking, but I'm ok with that!

Plus we are loosing a whole lot more than the two kids you just mentioned. likes of zach woods, tj bostic, trey napier just for a example.

 

I guess they are losing more than just a couple of players. However, Woods had nagging injuries all year and was never full speed. Bostic received alot of personal foul penalities with his quick temper, but was a tremendous player. Napier was also out a while with a leg injury and returned just this year to play after a two year absence. Of all the Seniors, Kirkham and Kizer were the two constants. The entire senior class will be missed. Their efforts this year and their never say die attitudes are something to build upon for the furture. I look forward to the coming years for PHS. Granted we will continue to lose some games until the talent returns, but they are making strides in the right direction. I think the 0 for the season days are behind us.

    • Never in my life have I seen a team in a scrimmage against their own defense look so lost and confused. The defense didn’t look much better, the coaching staff can’t keep their anger together, not only with the players but also with their other coaches. I feel awful for those players. None of them look like they wanted or should’ve been out there, but for the grown men on the sidelines acting like fools, it's just embarrassing to the Farragut name and reputation. I now see why they chose not to live stream this on their YouTube channel.
    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
