Upperman host ND


Recommended Posts

Not quiet sure about that - difference between city boys and country boys. I would love to see those ND boys out cutting tobacco, stripping tobacco, spiking tobacco and hauling tobacco, chopping corn, cutting silage, hauling in bales of hay, milking cows, cleaning out stalls, keeping the black snakes alive in the corn bin, to kill rats, milking cows, "pulling a calf" trying to come out the wrong way, plowing with a team of mules, feeding, and on and on and on................. !!

 

These kids from Upperman, Smith County, Dekalb County, LA, Westmoreland, Macon County, York have to have good wok habits. Many of them come to the weight room at 6/7 AM, go to school, practice after school, go home and work, get tomorrows lessons and get thru by 9:30 or 10:00.

 

I doubt many of the kids from the above teams have done much of what you said either these days. Men my age or maybe a little younger were probably the last groups that actually did all or most of those things growing up. Its almost impossible to get a high school kid to help me in hay nowadays.

    • This scenario resonates with the dynamics observed in my hometown of Hartsville. The undue influence of politics on high school sports remains a pervasive issue, detracting from the integrity of athletic programs.  The proliferation of individuals driven by a thirst for power inevitably precipitates the downfall of any program. It appears that we are currently grappling with similar challenges akin to those faced by Greenback. Please accept my condolences for your ordeal.
    • From what we are hearing on the reservation we will be lucky to beat sunbright. And trust me I am not throwing stones at them because they play their hearts out. It’s a tuff game every year, just like Oakdale but when you have small numbers that’s what you get. And then you add in that you loose two top linemen and the starting qb!!!! Along with a running back!  We are in deep trouble. 
    • The coach's departure ensued due to the absence of backing from the board members, compounded by the unsettling revelation that one board member persistently surveilled him, verging on conduct akin to harassment. Furthermore, it appears that meeting the expectations of this community remains an unattainable feat, as even a hypothetical scenario of clinching five consecutive state championships would likely not suffice to quell discontent. The current situation is fraught with complications, primarily stemming from applicants for the position who have cultivated relationships with board members known to have opposed the former coach.
    • Yes it big when you only have 30 players last year and that is counting 8th graders it is huge!!!!!!! And this year they are starting a middle school team and the 8th graders will be on it. Until their season is over. That is a plus to having a K-12 school. The eighth graders can play on high school football. And yes we have used them a lot in the past few years. 
    • Was the Coach fired? I thought I had read here or somewhere that he had elected to leave himself and pretty sure some folks on here had already been eluding to his departure well in advance of him actually acknowledging it. Or did the principal can him and then in turn get canned him/herself for this action?  From the sounds of it, i don't know if this or the Clinton situation is more of a mess.
