Russell seniors Jacob Ferguson and Micheal Mabery have left the Team. Don't have any other details.

You dont know why they left?

[spindoc]

Wow.

[CountyPride]

Wow.

 

Double WOW

[CountyPride]

Anyone with any info on this?

 

Possibly because of the overuse of younger players, over top of some of their classmates maybe? I dont know anything, just a guess.

I was at the school earlier and saw the team comming into the gym. If any of this is true than I don't think they left on behalf of their classmates. The other seniors were there.

I am not a Devil fan, but it is a shame when these two fine kids find the best thing for them is to quit. I believe that has to fall back on the coaching staff. I happened to be at a game earlier when there was a banner that read " All I want for Christmas is a new coach" but to hear the Devil backers they have the best staff in the 16th

Like anything else it boils down to players. Coaching is and makes a difference no question but you must have the Jimmy's and the Joe's. I am sure the Russell boys are trying hard but that is the worse team I have seen Russell have in any sports period in history. Good luck to all.

Does anyone finish what they started anymore? It seems like we sure see a lot of this anymore.

By far the two best players on the team.

When I was growing up, a long time ago, quitting anything was not an option. Times have changed, for the worse.

Totally agree.

I agree. It is a shame that a parent would let their kisa quit as much as they do too. Not referring to this situation because I dont know what happened, but parents are not old fashioned anymore either. It is more like "WE will show them" attitude.

Personally, I feel it falls back on the parents. You can teach a kid when he's younger to finish what you start, then when they get older they may make better decisions regarding this.

Considering your thread you started last week, I suppose you would assume that it is the coaches issue.

Any red blooded Devil fan I believe would get down on their hands and knees and beg Perry Yates to take over the program, the kids love and respect him what a nice change of pace that would be. I hope I'm not living in a dream world , but alas I probably am.
