It's great because you want high standards but it sucks when it hijacks a season in November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skip-zip Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 I have a scary thought...Remember last year when he had an issue, and it looked like he was going to just quit the team? Lets hope this doesn't go that far. And for what it's worth, I don't mind having the reputation as the school who is tough regarding student/athlete behavior. It is something to be proud of, even if the results suck sometimes. We'll rally behind the guys we've got, who know how to behave themselves, like we always do. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right is right even if nobody is doing it."When will these guys learn and quit throwing opportunities away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SR - Ibitayo, EvansJR - Kretzer, McAdams, ForsytheSO - Cheatham, JohnsonFR - Robotham, Jackson, Jackson, GladdenI think this will be a good season to utilize the "cupcake" schedule that we have. I know we were all not happy about the cupcake schedule we have this year, but perhaps it's the best thing. Most of the games will give this young team the opportunity to learn how to play with each, while being against relatively easy competition. I like the youth of this team a lot.
