hear the puppys had 3 quit the team. who was it? we cant wait for week 10. we gonna be coming ready to win.

[OleTigersDaddy]

The word on the street is that it was 3 seniors that quit. I guess those kids do not care for Ellison

[OLDSCHOOL44]

Must be kids that did not play last year they only had 4 on the team last year that was in the 11th grade

I don't know if anyone cares to name drop here; but who were the kids that quit? Wartburg could ill afford to lose seniors with experience!!

[SCW86]

So, has anyone heard anymore about this this situation? Did these kids really quit? I've been thinking about this situation and to be quite honest, I just don't get it. I don't see why anyone would want to quit right before their senior year. I guess I'm just an old has been that still longs for the 1980's, but it would have been a cold day in South Texas before I'd have quit right before my senior season. To be more honest, I couldn't stand Bill Winstead, but I still played my heart out for him on every play and I showed him the utmost respect. Again, I don't know all the why's and wherefore's here, but if those kids did quit, I hope they reconsider-football's much like life, it's way too short.

I read this & dug in a little. After talking to a couple players it is only 2 that have quit & neither one of them played last year they just went through spring practice. The 3rd is probably going to have to quit due to a "family issue" that Coach Ellison is trying to give him time to work out & rejoin the team.The two that I was talking to said that Coach Ellison is the best coach they have ever had so I doubt that kids are quitting due to him, they are probably just too lazy to put in the work. I think ole tiger just like stirring stuff up because we spank their hind ends every year!

Thanks for the info me2. I hope the dogs keep their personel together because from the looks of their schedule; they're going to need all hands on deck! Coach Ellison seems to be a dynamic young coach who could accoplish great things in the Burg! Yeah, I think all players should put in the work for the experience of playing high school football. I know I'm sentimental about it all. I don't know how many out there watched the final episode of Friday Night Lights last week, but it reduced me to tears! There's not a more magical time on earth than Friday nights when the field lights are turned on and everything stops but football in towns all across the country!

I have heard that there are 5 or 6 starters that are injured right now. Is this true? Will they be back for the opener? I had high hopes for this season.

Lights"

Hey its the mouth of the south! Ol sourpuss himself.

I was actually able to make it & it appeared to me that the Dawgs played their JV most of the scrimmage. Even when it was varsity play a lot of those young kids were in. I did notice several players appeared to be injured & a couple more went out with injuries, that does have me very concerned. What is the prognosis on these players?
