Same here, Topgun. Someone is either very paranoid or they are reading way to much into my posts. The Mutt is not griping. The Mutt is discussing his passion. I love the team and coaching staff. My posts are meant simply as discussion points between fans and other people who love to follow the game of high school football.

 

Like I said, it is early and Whitley has played two top 10 teams. It is way too early to tell how good this team can be. I think Black has done a nice job with the time and talent he has had to work with.

 

As I said, Whitley has had most of its success in the past as a smashmouth football team until something else is proven successful, the old fanbase will question what is going on.

 

That is what fans do. They talk about the teams, players and coaches they are interested in. Personally, I enjoy high school sports more than college or pro sports so I spend a lot of time talking or corresponding with other high school sports fans. If the fans ever stoped talking and playing on the internet boards, real trouble would be at hand because there would be no interest in the team.

 

"Interest in the team" is probably the most important component in building a successful program. Coaches should encourage all the interest they can create for the team.

 

As far as football knowledge, I doubt that high school coaches have a corner on the market. Many fans have been studing the game longer than most high school coaches have been alive. Like any game of strategy, different strokes for different folks. I have not read or for that matter heard very many negative comments regarding coaching or the QB for that matter. I am quite confident that the fanbase is very happy with the coaching staff. The QB had a bad game last weekend but, that happens sometimes. He has done a good job all season and I expect to see him playing with confidense tonight.

All I can say is the largest dam is felled by the smallest crack.

 

why start a crack at this point? First we need to pass more, then we need to run more....... All I'm saying is the coach has an offensive package. Let him run it. You may have studied the game, but I doubt you know more than he does.
