Except for Monday they were able to practice 4 days. the starting tailback banged up his shoulder on Wednesday but was back at it on Thursday scrimmaging Pioneers have a make up scrimmage at page on Monday at 6 pm. The blue and red game will be played on Thursday or Friday of next week Dang went from 87+ down to 65 pretty quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volsrock Posted May 4, 2014 Report Share Posted May 4, 2014 there is a universal rule in football, that to play football you have to practice football, not to ask of any young man or woman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volfan1986 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 there is a universal rule in football, that to play football you have to practice football, not to ask of any young man or woman Glad to see that's the rule, that is one thing in the past that's kept the numbers down. Some kids miss a couple of practice days and play in scrimmages or games while others that show up don't. It's like working all week then on payday your check bounces. Hope you stick by it, if the kids see you stand behind your word then maybe more will come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCTIGERFAN Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 there is a universal rule in football, that to play football you have to practice football, not to ask of any young man or woman Yeah great rule, and Im sure mostly everyone can agree with that. So Coach, lets here a prediction. I am talking wins and losses, not coach speak. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
volsrock Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 only concern ourselves with one game, the first one against Dekalb county, which i think is bringing back a very experienced football team and staff. Our short term goal right now is to get a little bit better today than we were yesterday and continue this process throughout the summer into fall camp. Continued improvement is what we seek.

Ok game 1 vs. DeKalb. How does that one play out? What are your thoughts on this matchup? Do you expect a win? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pioneersports Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) If he didn't expect to win, he wouldn't be much of a coach. All coaches expect to win. Edited May 6, 2014 by Pioneersports Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCTIGERFAN Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) If he didn't expect to win, he wouldn't be much of a coach. All coaches expect to win. Wanting and expecting are totally different things, dingus. So you think the coach at Austin Peay truly thought they was going to beat UT last year?

volsrock Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 I hope for it to be a great game. On paper you have a veteran dekalb county squad against a very young, ineperienced pioneer squad. No one should ever go into a game thinking that they are going to lose, kind of defeats the purpose of the whole thing. We have no room but to get better and hopefully we will provide you all with a test. One of my old favorite wrestlers rick flair stated 'that to be the man, you have to beat the man" you know where we are on that scale right now. I hope that after the game you can atleast see that you have seen some improvements/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

volsrock Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 thanks, and we feel the same about you all. One way or another dekalb will give us a mesuring point on how much better we have to get throughout the rest of the year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCTIGERFAN Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Well I look forward to the day that this can be a close contested game each year. Over the last 9 or 10 years, this rivalry has seem to of been mostly lopsided wins for the victor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
