Too much talk of injuries and kids being "uncoachable". Stop with the excuses...take your lumps, get back to work, and move on! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's an option guy and that's what he believes in, so I have no problem with that call. If it worked, everyone would be talking about how ingenious the call was!

OR wasn't ready to play last night and I agree with whoever said that Farragut isn't as good as normal...they're good but is NOT a great Farragut team. We have QB issues but it goes beyond that. If we can figure out a way to get the ball to our playmakers (22 and 13) MANY times a game, we win. I don't like to criticize play calls after the fact BUT on the goal line, get the ball to 22. At midfield, get the ball to 22. Deep in your own territory, get the ball to 22. And when you don't get it him...get it to 13. Agree with this. We need to run hard routes in practice with one on ones drills so we learn to catch these balls in practice and then it will be in a game. Are we hitting our rbs enough in practice to let them know what contact will be like? Grasping at straws, but hopefully we can pull it together, sooner than later.

The other part that got me was when he said this was unacceptable because HE had never had a shutout in HIS CAREER before. But I’m for him and the team all the way. You just don’t say everything you think out loud. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess these shirts are turning out to be participation ribbons. #23, did he even get in on a tackle? I see him doing more dancing around before the games and between plays then actually making a play. SMH ORDT I started to not give anyone a shirt last night. And they are NOT participation ribbons these kids earn them. Yes #3 dropped a kick but he has had a good season up till tonite. #23 has played good all season also. So what if he dances around? Maybe they all need some more enthusiasm on the sidelines. I'm not a coach just a long time fan. You're welcome to come up to Z section and sit with me and try to pick who should or shouldn't get a shirt. Ain't always that easy. Excuse the rant I'm off the soapbox now.

I understand the frustration, but can’t be doing that, especially this day and age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still can’t get over how awful we looked last night. Things can only go up from here, you’d think. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t an if and I don’t mean that in a smart mouth way. I won’t do the same and say the name on here but I only knew one of the names after I heard him say it in the interview.

ForTheRidge Posted September 10, 2022 Report Share Posted September 10, 2022 I’m going to forget about this week and start checking out Lenoir City. Can’t believe I just typed that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shutout only twice in 25 years and both times have come to them in the past 5 years. We are their whipping boy. Hard to believe. It was the other way around for years on end. We have become their Clinton. Edited September 10, 2022 by SweetScience Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
