Yeti Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 @Tigerbomb We looked good vs Loudon Friday. We will be better than I thought we might be considering how young we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our offense most notably looked already as strong or stronger than last year. We had 4 backs run the ball really well. As I mentioned in a previous post we didn't have a real back running it last year. Loudon looked as good as they did last year mostly except for the qb. The coaches son will be missed not that their new qb was bad, the last year's qb for Loudon was just a talent that's hard to replace. Meigs looked good running it against Loudon and Loudon looked good passing it against us. Thats about the jist of it really. Semey Turner still there btw. He's gonna be a handful for anyone this year Edited August 2, 2022 by Yeti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's gonna be a handful for anyone this year We cancelled scrimmage.Too many starters will be out.Got to get healthy for season.Had 2 go down yesterday. They figured they'd cancel early enough that you too could find somebody else to scrimmage or scrimmage amongst yourself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad way to start the year O&B, hope all are healthy and ready to go by the start of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We scrimmaged Hixson yesterday and struggled pretty bad. We are gonna need to heal up some as well most likely. After Loudon I was optimistic and after Hixson I'm not so sure. We have skilled players but may be a year away from making a deep playoff run considering our youth. Not disregarding this year but next year we should retain 20 starters On a side note though all of the Sweetwater staff apparently showed up to help cheer us on. It was pretty nice of them Edited August 3, 2022 by Yeti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interested to see how our defense handles the stud from rockwood. I hope to make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hixsons defense is probably on par with what Tyner and Marion will have this year. I'm not selling us short by any means. After playing Loudon I just thought we were progressed futher than what I had initially thought we might be. We are just missing the reps to be able to produce alot of positive plays against a defense of that caliber this early on. One thing that didn't help us was all of the Sweetwater coaching staff showing up to check us out I guess. Few of us talked about it afterwards and we didn't run the same Plays we ran against Loudon anyways. Edited August 4, 2022 by Yeti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This used to be the greatest thing in the world for kids, now lots of them look at it as a Job. They just don't have to do anything hard anymore, when something hard comes along, they tuck their tails a run. This is not the rough and tumbling world we grew up in. From what I hear, a lot of them don't know if they are girls or boys,lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
