Did Mahan come back to the team?

I love to see student athletes from this area get the opportunity to pay for some or all of their college education by playing football. And, there are a lot of players from this area who are doing just that right now. If you have a player on the Greenup Co football team. You can help this to happen for them. Many coaches do not work as hard as they should to get scholarships for them. You can do this. Get a game film of the best game your player has had, if they will not give it to you, then film it yourself, sometimes this is better anyway, you can focus on that player (particularly if he is a lineman). And write on the film the color jersey he is wearing and the number he is wearing. Then type a resume of his scholastic and athletic accomplishments, including his 40 time, bench max, squat max, deadlift max, clean max, and GPA. Then send it to the colleges of his choose, really hit the D2, D3, and NAIA schools. If he is decent he can get a scholarship, even if he is on a loosing team. After you send the tapes, wait a week and call the Head Coach at the colleges, ask what else he wants/needs and send that to him as well. Please, take this on yourself.

 

My point was, there are players on the team that have the ability to play other positions, and would do a better job in a certain position than one who is actually in that particular position, but they're not played there because they're not from the right end of the county and who they are or are not.

:thumb:Gotcha.

Maybe attitude is keeping them from playing not location.

What about the poor attitudes:mad: of the ones holding those positions? I've seen those first hand. Some think that they're the only one who is doing their job and the only one who can play that position.

Thanks, Old Rambler! I've read your postings, you seem to be very wise.

Two wrongs doesn't make it right certainly, and it really should be the ones that put forth all the time not just walk on and expect to play.

I'll probably get berated, but you asked a legitimate question, that should be asked, and I feel as if I can, at least partially, answer the question.

 

To start with, other then Raceland, I am, more then likely, closer to Greenup Co. then any other program in the area. I went to Argillite elemetary K-6, then moved and transferred to Raceland. I have many friends with students at Greenup Co and I know several faculty members at Greenup Co. With that being said, I am not bashing Greenup Co, I just wish they could right the ship.

 

Greenup needs to start over. Whether it is real or perceived, there is a big split in the Greenup Co district. You have South Shore and the rest of the district. In the past and present all the administration is from South Shore: High School Principle, AD, Head Football Coach, Superintendent.

 

Where is GCHS AD Chris Alister from? I thought he grew up in Greenup. I think he may live in South Shore, now due to his wife. Greg Loagan GCHS Baseball from Lloyd. Varisty BB coach Leach, not from GC at all. Was former coach TJ fromSouth Shore?

 

This discussion needs to be started somewhere else. I hoping for Greenup win friday night. Back to the real subject.

 

TJ is from Russell and was quite successful at GC. Some of the problems at Greenup are things that can't be fixed by a football coach. One big problem is the location of the school. It is in Lloyd, not Greenup, South Shore, or Wurtland where there is a chance to develop some community support. This is an often overlooked problem. The South Shore / Everybody Else problem is well-known and needs no further comment other than all parties should know better. The so-called South Shore Quarterback Club needs to disband and just stay out of athletics. Greenup has the kids to compete but these factors and more force them to play with just a fraction of the student body. They need to split the school or better yet, put the high school in Greenup. Then a concerted effort to allow all students a fair shot from all areas. They also need much more support from the administration as far as cutting grass, cleaning up, getting rid of those lights, new bleachers, and so on. It adds up.

Okay, it stayed derailed. You can start another one if you want to talk about the game.

I suppose I'm as much to blame as anyone.
