UNION CITY 2015

[BigSwo2]

Spring practise has begun in UC and even though I have not seen the team in action I have heard that these boys are more "intense" than the 2014 team. I was like "Whu?" How can this be? I hear tell that these kids feel like they have more to prove because of the last 2 years. They don't want to be the first team to "Not" make it back to the title. Oh well there is a long long season to get through first and so many things can happen in 1A ball where players have to play Iron Man football. I like the sound of that though.

They still have a football program in Union City? Figured they quit while on top. lol How's that for brimming with confidence? Actually, my opinion (we all know what they are like) is Dresden will be much better than last year, I think this year will be a more competitive game with UC. We don't have the speed to beat a UC or Peabody. I'm worried Winn wont have enough time to work his magic till our line develops.Time will tell for sure.

 

I'll be a UC fan if they make it east again. As much as it hurts!!!!

Yso you can keep on dreaming. UC football will be here for a long time to come. I will have a more personal intrest this season since my boy will be on the team. Not sure how much time he will get on the field but he will be in the Purple and Gold uniform. Speed is what you can expect from UC. Fast on both sides of the ball. Like I said earlier.....INTENSITY. Don't ask me why. Coach Bowling just has these boys focused.

@ losing to Lake County

yall keep on thinking UC can't lose to Lake Co.Could depend on the LC defense.UC Had better make sure District MVP and possibly Mr.Football candidate Stavonski  Wilkes doesn't run wild.Darius Johnson also has a lot of speed at quarterback.Wilkes had around 2, 000 yards last year with several 300 yard games.Had a lot called back.Can break a 70 yarder on any play.Also hear he has offers from Miss, St, Memphis, and must be pretty smart as I'm hearing Harvard and Yale as well.Just a few I have heard.And I think he had about 175 yards or close against UC last year,.And I, m not buying that this years team will be better than last year or the year before.UC will lose to Trenton for sure and possibly LC and Dresden

Bigster Bigster Bigster. The One thing I can say thing for you and  is "You are consistent". I know Wilkes is a great athlete and I am thrilled he is getting the looks from those schoold he deserves. He did have a good game against us with the majority coming on one long run. with all that said and done, what was the final score? I can't remember what LC had on the board but UC had 63 points. I think that says it all. I hope Wilkes gets all he deserves to get whether it be at the district, region or state level. One thing to bare in mind when it comes to LC and UC. After the way your foolish coach rallied against our team by getting other coaches in the district not to vote for any UC players at the District level, will be a sore spot for the Tornadoes for a long time coming. Now you can come back and say it's not true but we know that it is. So thank your coach for the butt whoopin LC will get once again this season. Now for you, keep thinking UC will have a huge drop off this year and you will be crying in your beer again.

Just remember a few years back,Lake Co scored more points against Union City than any Single A school ever has.About 60 points in a butt whooping.and do you know how your comment sounds.You're basically saying a coach could influence other coaches  and not only that .are saying they have no intergrity.I on the other hand would tend to believe it's because all the same coaches in the district that saw Wilkes and The UC players were more impressed by Wilkes when they played.For instance,Had over 300 hundred yards against Humboldt,Would you not think that coach was impressed by Wilkes.Same against Gibson Co and some other schools.Pioneer said he thought wilkes was as good as Jones  from Crockett Co ,who was a Mr.Football candidate.So just maybe on the nights the other teams and coaches watched ,were more impressed by Wilkes instead of someone running a couple yards at a time and maybe scoring 4 touchdowns in a game from only 4 yards out.Wilkes had more yards,more exciting and as many if not more touchdowns.Had about 6 touchdowns against Bruceton and over 300 yards.On long runs.Not 5 yards..You just made yourself look foolish with that comment about the integrity of the other coaches.Take the blinders off.

By the way,Not implying Henry or any of the other UC players aren't great athletes as well because they are.I kinda look at Wilkes and Henry as high school clones of Matte Forte and Barry Sander type runners.I prefer the Barry Sanders type,very exciting to watch.

Alright alright. I said Wilkes is deserving of everything he gets. Did I not? He is Awesome. Please don't be like the other 2 or 3 LC posters who come to our threads and make everything they say about LC. Bigster start a Wilkes Thread. As far as your coach is concerned it wasn't Wilkes that I was talking about. The only player from UC who made the All District Team was our kicker. Now tell me how that happens. A team that went back to back state Champions and only the kicker makes All District? Well it may be and does sound far fetched but either way our players believe that your coach had a hand in it. If they believe it, that's all that matters as far as getting ready to play LC is concerned. I'm sure no one from UC will tell them diffrent  Get ready.

I knew Wilkes was voted MVP but didnt realize Henry or none of the other great UC players didnt earn all district.If that is true, and only the kicker than something was bad wrong.Should have had at least 7 or 8 all district from the UC team alone,if not more.At least on the all district team.I think LC will give UC a test offensively.Not sure about on defense.But will UC be as good offensively as in past couple years.If not,Lake co should hold their own with the offensive firepower.

[BigSwo2]

Bigster, I did not hear the LC coach personally but some very reliable sources said it was so. He was mad about the scores being so high. But what are you supposed to do when your starting offense has 5 or 6 one play drives and scores on all of them? Next do you tell the second team players not to score if they get a chance? I think we have both been on this side of the scoring issue before. I don't like blowouts. They are boring. It is a fact that only the UC kicker made the All District team last year and the catalyst behind it was the LC coach. So whether it's true or not our players believe that it is. They will have no problem gettingready for the Falcons. Back to back State Champs and only the Kicker gets recognition from thier own district. Like you said something is wrong.
