I gotta be honest, I don't know Coach Rogers at all. Heard a lot of good things about him though. Pretty sure there was an issue with one team having two games scheduled for the same date. Honest date mix up. Forcing Lincoln to go looking late. But, Lincoln was only down 2 scores at halftime. I don't ever really think they were going to make it a game late, but they competed and were able to move the ball at times against a good football team. My point is that I believe the Scott Co. game helped Lincoln. As opposed to what the Danville game will do for them this coming season.
I do understand a new coach needing W's though. I really do. New coach, home town guy, great player at the same school. I just wonder what the reaction would have been if Coach Jaggers had paid 3 grand to buy out a contract before he had coached his first game because the team would be to tough for them. They'd have called him a coward, or soft or questioned how he expected to get better just playing easy teams.
I hope Coach Rogers makes a good run at Lincoln. I really do. Just seems to me the biggest problem with Coach Jaggers was that he wasn't Coach Rogers.
