My whole reservations with our team right now is work and heart. The group of kids we have currently are most likely the most talented group to ever be at Dresden. That doesn't insure a gold or silver ball. What Dresden has done in these good years is work their butts off and refuse to loose. It seems like some of our kids just expect to win on talent alone. Maybe I'm mistaken but in the past kids played for each other and I've heard kids griping cause they aren't getting the stats they think they deserve. When all we had was Raymer running himself to death you still had the other kids blocking every play and our D was nasty. Kids would rather tackle someone instead of getting a TD or give up a int to put up a big hit. Dang I'm rambling like revy.......

That is by far the most mis-used word on coachT.  No picking on you, YSO.  I see that at least once a day were "loose" is used in place of "lose".  Wonder why that is such a common mistake?

I agree with you yso.  I don't blame the kids but their parents.  They are told at home how great they are and it is all about them and not the team.  Winn coming back will provide leadership and hopefully that team concept of just winning and individual stats will come.  If the egos continue to be a problem Dresden will be a bust for sure.  I have been around these kids their whole lives and they are for the most part good kids but I have seen first hand what a leader Winn is and these kids will follow him, just hope he comes home.

 LOL...like I said, was picking on you.  That is the most commonly misused word on this website.   I'm definitely not an English major myself.  I just wonder why those get confused so often.  Obviously, you know the difference so I think it may be a sub-conscious exchange.

I usually have these issues cause I have fat fingers and I'm the worlds worst speller. If spell check doesn't catch my error I'm hosed. lol

Merry Christmas to all the coach T posters and go Lions!!

    • Best-of-three sectional series vs East Robertson at home starting Wednesday.  They put us out last year at this point.  Go Pirates!!
    • I don't believe they have anyone that is surbers caliber but a decent staff overall.
    • Richland plays at McKenzie on Wed.  Should be a good series.  Does Richland have good pitching?  
    • Congratulations to the Warrior baseball team winning the Region Championship.  Last night the football team beat Franklin Co 33-0 in their spring scrimmage. Warriors looked very good. Missing a few players who were playing baseball but still absolutely dominated. A lot of young ones got in halfway through the 3rd when the score reached 33-0. QB Tilton Pickett looked very sharp.  Sam Pickett is on another level this season. Seems to have put on 15 to 20 lbs in the off season and added a step as well. Transfer from last year Williamson caught numerous balls and is very elusive. Lots of athletes on this team. Defense was smothering and will only get better. The head coach from Sewanee was in attendance and offered 2 kids after the game. Could be a special year.
