That seems strange. Why would you play a scrimmage with no substitutions? Don't you need the subs prepared too?

 

Of course you do. First of all there were 3 injured varsity only players there, so they clearly were not scrimmaging. There was one varsity only player home sick and one out of town. The other subs did scrimmage in the JV game.. However, they did scrimmage last week. This week was just different. Like you said. Some teams work on individual things. Hope that makes it easier for you to understand. If not, then I guess your question will remain unanswered.

Ease up big guy!!!! You don't think that is a legit question for any team playing a scrimmage??? Sounds like more than just me were confused by that statement! I would have felt the same way if it was my own team!!! I've NEVER heard of only playing 6 players in a scrimmage no matter how many I had hurt. (unless I only had 6!). Is that not a fair question by the original poster??

 

AND I didn't ask it originally, so why didn't you respond to guy that asked you directly?? My response was to his comment. You need to chill my man!

 

BTW...are the 8th graders dressing varsity? I believe it was you in a previous post telling me that wouldn't happen. They would have too many other JV players in the way. I know one was in a boot (not sure if she's out yet and I wish her well), but I think the other dressed and traveled with the varsity team to both scrimmages, right?

Ease up? LOL.. This is comical. Ok big guy, Are we going to go on and on about this and have 10 pages about enrollment next. The comment was HC had no depth. I stated the comment was false, because it is. Questions surrounding how they chose to play IN A SCRIMMAGE should really not be a concern to anyone. It's a scrimmage and its their team. Why is it such a big deal??? So many of these post have done nothing but bash HC and their coach. I have yet to see where anyone questioned how any other team has subbed in their scrimmages. Back on the issue, there are enough players for subs even if a few are injured or sick. However, they wanted to play the entire game with no subs since there was a JV scrimmage. It was a practice and they are coming off summer break.. What better time to test your endurance with a good team like FC? If one or more wanted a break, they would and actually did get one. FC has some great players in Frank and Stewart, I don't blame the girls for wanting the entire game against D1 commits for practice, considering the the other varsity only players could not play. I mean we are referring to the VARSITY scrimmage, are we not?

 

Also, the injured player you are referring to who is in a boot was not referenced in previous posts. But clearly she was sitting varsity and was injured. The rest of the girls that were in attendance are playing freshman and/or Junior Varsity, few of them were missing as well. But I wont do a head count on who was not in attendance because it was a scrimmage that has come and gone. I don't live in the past, Its a new day.. Happy Thanksgiving!!

Wrong again...here's the comment from Catchtheball..."Its also odd that "the girls knew and agreed there would be no substitutions", N2thepaint, could you clarify if there was a vote to not sub?". Did you not see that one???

 

It's a discussion board...they are the current state champions...are people not supposed to discuss what appears to be an odd decision???? Again, I would have asked our own coaches the exact same question if they would have done that! And I'm not the only one asking (and I wasn't the first) so apparently others were curious as well!!

 

We are referring to a varsity SCRIMMAGE. Are you saying there are only 6 varsity kids healthy right now. And for you comment about the kids wanting time against D1 kids...are you saying that only those 6 wanted that???

 

It was just a question as to why only 6 would have played in a SCRIMMAGE. It's odd to me and many others on here and this is a discussion board. It's where questions like that get asked...and again...we would have asked any team that did that. Just happened to be your Indians and you take offense to it. It was just a question.

 

And why is no one questioning substitution patterns of other teams...well maybe because they aren't odd patterns like this is for a scrimmage. Regardless of whether they agreed to it or not and whether they are working on their things, it's still an odd choice. To each their own. We were just curious.

 

And again, why didn't you respond to the guy that asked you?? And I never said a word about depth. And you never answered...were the 8th graders there? Your previous post was from weeks ago when you told me the 8th graders would never be on the varsity roster.

I answered the first and last comment (#'s 10 & 14) and that referenced how odd it was. It doesn't appear odd to the girls. Every program is different and if you're not in the program, you won't know how it works. And this is their program and yes, it is different. But it works for them.. I apologize you are having a hard time keeping up here, let me make this easy for "clarification"......EVERY team has JV subs or girls that play up, so of course if I am saying "varsity only" then I'm stating how many varsity only players ( the ones who will never play JV or freshman) were there or not there. There were many subs (girls who will dress varsity) in the building. But with the absence of the other varsity only players, the starting 5 wanted to play the whole game. Because AGAIN, we are talking about a varsity scrimmage with FC, a really good team. (Have you seen Frank or Stewart Play??) If other girls who will be playing varsity were playing FC in the JV scrimmage, (which by the way, their JV team was as good as most varsity teams in the 9th), Why does it have to be examined? They played to prepare.. Wasn't that the issue? It wasn't fair, why wouldn't they get to prepare too.... I believe it was...There is the clarification.... The rest is Moot!

 

Other members of the team who are and will be dressing varsity did in fact play. They scrimmaged in the JV game against a very talented Franklin County JV team. I believe the chief complaint has been remedied for now. I will leave you with your discussion board.

Thank you because you always bring a lot of hostility.

 

I know Franklin Co. I also got the low down of how they played and who played what minutes for them from a very reliable source. I know all I need to know about the scrimmage...other than why a varsity team would only play 6 kids. That's why we asked. (and for the record, I can't believe any bball player would say that they are okay with not playing...if they were a varsity player.) But whatever! You said the other varsity players got to play in the JV game. If they are varsity players, why in the world not play them in a varsity scrimmage?? That's the question me and others asked. That's all we wanted to know. Others challenged your depth...not me. And others asked this question too, but you want to come back on me. So again, why are you addressing me? I didn't ask the question!!!

 

And you said they wanted to get ready for the season...like they needed to get in game shape. That's fine, but what have they been doing for the last month? And don't you really need several players ready and tested...to see what you have? And aren't the first 30+ games just scrimmages anyway. Why was this scrimmage so important to just play 6 kids. Like I said. I know who played for them and how long they played and how they subbed. Tells me what I needed to know.

Hostility? Victim much?? Here's what I was trying to say the nicest way I could, so Let me rephrase....Its none of your business.. At all, just none of your business why they play or rotate or don't rotate like they do!! Who cares, are you the coach? On the team? Mascot? Who cares why the JV only played JV or the varsity only played varsity. REALLY!! Who cares! It was a scrimmage. Lol. You will get to see who all the players and subs are in a couple weeks.

I didn't ask. The other guy did!! Why don't you respond to him??? You keep responding to me.

 

And it's a board where we talk about opinions. When you're the champ, people will talk about you. Don't respond if you don't like it. You always get real defensive real fast. You even went off on one of your own not too long ago. Simma down my friend.

Let's lay off all of the personal comments and discuss...I don't know...let's say basketball?

 

Seriously.

Wow..tempers already flaring up in the 9th region...I cannot wait to see some of these games..technicals flying around in Louisville at a scrimmage....March madness is starting early
