I take nothing away from the nc kids but you adults thinking it was coaching, schemes, whatever are crazy and delusional.

 

Just a couple of quick points to prove you wrong .......

1. On our first kickoff, your return men were standing on the 20. Anyone that has watched our film would know that is just plain stupid.

2. Anyone that has watched our film would know you don't throw against #7. Where did you guys go over and over last night - just plain stupid.

3. Anyone that had watched our film would know that last night's offensive scheme had not been run all year. You couldn't have prepared for it - it was brand new and implemented in the last two weeks.

 

Plain and simple - one coaching staff was prepared (and executed very well by our guys) and one coaching staff was ill-prepared and dumbfounded.

Workinprogress, call it what you want. We expected more from the highly ranked 3A East Nashville team. Some things I don't understand. 7 total yards, woefully underprepared on special teams appearing to have never seen a good kicker, best play of 4 yards. I guess with your philosophy, East can mail in the playoffs because you will have to play a good team two weeks in a row. While our talent had a great deal to do with the outcome, East needs to look inward to figure out what happened last night.

 

Good luck with the rest of the season. I hope you finish strong.

No need for me to really respond anymore. Plain and simple nc had more athletes and were more healthy because of the schedule.

We expected more from a Christian school. What happened to humble. Your pride is going to cost you.

 

I miss the religion of my youth.

Beware the splinter in my eye and worry about the 2x4 in your eye.

Dude.... Chill out. We are just having some fun talking about a high school football game. You're really stretching it to place some kind of personal judgement onto a football post. Geesh.

East special teams & offensive was horrible lastnight. They looked undisciplined and disoriented. That's the knock on all Metro teams though. We didn't look mentally/emotionally prepare lastnight. The "underdog passion" that East carriers into every game wasn't there.

 

NCS defensive was great, and had a great game plan. We all know if #2 would've played it would've been a different story. That 7 yards stat is misleading to a certain extent. Injuries happen in sports, offensive looked dazed after he went down earlier. That's not taken away for your defense, which was lights out. It's just being truthful, it would've been a different game.

 

IMO NCS offensive didn't look good at all. You had success with one play all night. Going left w/ #35 behind #50 & the fullback. Once the defensive made that adjustment, the offensive looked suspect. NCS like numerous delay of games, burned early timeouts due to confusion, and the pass game was little to nothing lastnight with 2 picks. With the time possession NCS had I was thinking a blow out. 19 points wasn't intriguing. They did want they had to do to win, which I respect.

 

I have the uttermost respect for our defense & defensive coaches, they played 40 mins and only allowed 19 points (3 in the second half) to a team that averages 40+. That's something to hang our hats on. East will bounce back vs. Lipscomb and take 1st place in the district next week. No worries.

 

NCS was the better team lastnight. Respect.

No, your beating your chest and pointing out other faults. I would expect better from a Christian school.

 

Good luck to your team. Let East worry about East's faults.

I'm 100% positive that Waite and this coaching staff will bounce back better than ever and make a deep run in the playoffs!

 

"Minor set back for a major comeback"

I'm sure you guys will be fine. Good group of boys, just like last year. I hope the Upton kid is okay. Like I said before, he's special.

[workinprogress]

Upton has a bright future. He will be okay.
