biglon68 Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 I've seen the last couple Dobyns-Bennett vs South-Doyle games and physically they always have a dozen players who look athletically imposing. I think they definately have a good talent pool but no cohesion. It may be a case of trying to fit the players into set offense and defense schemes instead of changing the offense or defense year to year to utilize talant to its potential. I think several local teams are great at this. Oak Ridge, Dobyns-Bennett, Sevier County, Alcoa, Knox Central do a great job at this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BgBoy56 Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 I think you're right about several players with talent. I think there may be a depth problem. The new coaches need some time to get their system in place. It is regretable that the team didn't log the win against Science Hill. They should have won that game, and they would have developed some confidence that is desparately needed when a program has lost several games in a row.

VolTimesSportsEditor Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 Don't get to down on South-Doyle. They were a team in turmoil last year and now they have a new head coach. I think the team will be on an upswing in a coupple of years just have somefaith in your players and coaches. Good luck with the rest of your season.

keecrazy Posted September 29, 2004 Report Share Posted September 29, 2004 I really don't know what the answer is. New coaches, new uniforms, and I think they even redid the fieldhouse. The whole program has been overhauled, and yet here we sit, on our way to another winless season. I think besides the difficult schedule, the biggest problem is confidence. These players just aren't used to winning. I'm afraid we may have to wait another year to see any payoff for the coaching changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
