Outplayed, outhustled, outcoached, outefforted, outcheered, outwatered, outmatched.

If you can come up with any other aspect of this game, we got whipped in it.

Bottom line...no heart. There's a few that put out the effort, but having only a few do that won't win football games.

We have no identity on offense, and defensively we were pushed around.

At what point do the Gordonsville faithful decide to go outside the family tree to hire football coaches? They decided boys basketball and baseball coaches were not getting it done. I hear year after year how much talent is coming from the junior high and how they should win state titles. Last night was a total mismatch coaching wise. Just wondering???

When you hire two assistant principals to run the football team someone gets the shaft. Either the team or their school. You cannot do both unless you have Rankins athletes.

FWIW, I like our coaches. After talking to them, my son, and other players, effort and execution was lacking. There were some assignments that were not carried out, and there was some heart left in the locker room.

We also took some huge hits injury wise. Looks like we lost 4 more starters. We were already starting a few freshmen and playing a few more at times. Those numbers are increasing this week.

Bottom line, we got whipped, some can harp on our choice of coaches, most from outside the community, and they shoulder some of the blame,  but players have to put out the effort, fill the right gaps, block the right players, and make tackles.

    • And that needs to go, Charter ,private ,magnet,city and any school that operates differently than pure public schools should be separated. What really needs to be done is address urban and rural. About all the usual powers have access to several kids from other schools period.
    • Sad deal. Hate it. So the coach that kicked her off is now fired?? 
    • Slightly off topic from a gender standpoint but just observed several boys volleyball games in the Knoxville area for a short spring season. The guys seemed to have a great time. There were several club players on each team but several football, basketball and tennis players involved. Knoxville Catholic, Maryville, Heritage, Knoxville West maybe William Blount had teams. Thanks to Coach Brent Carter from Knoxville Catholic/K2 for getting it together. I’m sure the coaches involved got several laughs trying to coach guys that really had no idea what they were talking about but pretty athletic and competitive. Catholic’s best basketball player told the coach he had played a lot of 2:3 and 1:3:1 but never a 3:3 LOL Maybe it will catch on with some more schools next year.
