No strength and conditioning a few weeks may not make or break a season in the way you imply but it definitely could get kids hurt if they don't prepare their bodies correctly which will make or break a season in the way you did not imply. If they start working out in January, that gives them 7 months before August. Is that not enough time? I am not from Knox County so you all will have to help me out. Basketball is definitely not an individual sport btw. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured taking time to hire the right head coach would be more important. In the words of Kramer, "whoa Jerry". A roster as unathletic as Bearden can't afford to skip a set of push ups much less weeks of workouts. They got done before Halloween. And I got news for you: nobody wants the job, that's why they're interviewing little league coaches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they are waiting till after the state championships are over to get someone who knows how to win. The previous staff definitely did not make it seem like a job someone would want so I agree with you there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

June and July is mostly on the field preseason prep. Take out a month for spring ball, that leaves you with four months. That's sixteen weeks. Uh oh. Spring Break. Fifteen weeks. Five days a week, that's 75 days. Not to mention other school holidays like Good Friday and MLK Day. Do you want a QB standing behind an offensive line that has worked out for 68 days?

Do you want a QB standing behind an OL that has worked out for 68 days? 68 vs 78 days does not seem like a big deal to me. I figure coaching staff and scheme can make up for a couple weeks in the weight room, but maybe I am wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like it helps to be strong or fast in the game of football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went to the semifinals that year. I know their offense struggled mightily all year but it still seems like a proud program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
