Riverdale

I think I've seen this thread about 5 times in the past year.

LOD complains about Riverdales coaching, compares teams to great teams of past, somebody mentions Maryville, Maryville then pretends they don't recruit. Then Riverdale goes out and makes a deep playoff run but loses to Maryville and then this thread starts all over again.

I never heard anyone from Maryville say that they didn't recruit.

There are 50 players on the Freshmen roster and all of them live in the "281" .

Before Rankin got to Riverdale, nobody knew who they were. Oakland was the big boy in the Boro.

[GREYRIDER]

There are 99 players listed on the Varsity roster, I have been to or by just about everyone of their homes over the last 10 years or so. All but 2 of them (99% sure) live in the "281" . The 2 , one of them has a home in Louisville and in MARYVILLE. The other lives in Alcoa and now plays for the F5.

Are you the Blaze fan that has shown up at the Maryville game the last couple of years on Thanksgiving weekend wearing the Orange/Blue Blaze jacket? On second thought, probably not. That guy is probably a Maryville transplant.

Maryville is where they are due to preparation, planning, leadership, involvement, and the commitment to keep all those things at the elite level. Players are attracted to that and find their way there. Players buy in and do their job. A good player that is in the right position, and plays with the right fundamentals, will almost always win over a more talented player that lacks discipline. Maryville has that formula down to a science.

 

It's up to everyone else to catch up.

I'd prefer to do this after the season. There's a lot of football to be played.

 

I would to, but unless the current coaching staff wakes up the team it will be here much BEFORE any of us wants it.

 

To many folks say do not put pressure on the staff as they are doing their best. Unfortunately their best does not appear to get the job done.

 

Like I said, time to either step up or step aside.
