JD, couldn't agree more with your comments. It is very aggrivating to get on any thread dealing with Lloyd and it turns into a coach/administration bashing session regardless of sport. I think Lloyd has great coaches in all programs (Key, Lucas, Moore, etc), would just like people to find other excuses besides the coaching.

 

I find it hard to talk about Lloyd football at the moment and not mention the coaching situation since the coach just resigned. I have said that Lucas was a good man and a good coach that surrounded himself with bad coaches, you may dissagree but thats your opinion. Lloyd is like every other school out there, they have good coaches and bad coaches too. I also said that Lloyd was going to run the table in 2A next year because of the quality of athletes returning to the program. Also, I dont think anyone will dissagree that when Yeagle was hired there was mass excitement! It was time for a change, for everyone and when a new coach is announced there will be more excitement, that is all I was saying. Where ever Roy Lucas lands that team will be getting a quality offensive coach, I hope to see him on the sidelines next year!

You can't run the table in NKY 2A without getting real dedication in the weight room.

 

I dont think our problem will be in the weight room, as DARARK has mentioned several times, we need to replace some O lineman. If we fill those holes we will be very good running football team! Lloyd returns almost every skill player back, QB, running backs and recievers. We run the ball like I think we will next year ,Smith will have time to throw to Wood, Nunn and Tolle and we will have the balance that we never had last year!

When it comes to coaches some people just have an axe to grind. I did not say I agreed with what the coaches do, I was just saing coach Lucas is a very good offensive coach. Let's bring this back to the football program and the kids not bashing coaches and administration. JD

As to the comments above by Neverwrong about Lloyd running the table in 2A, I don't see that happening. Lloyd is in a competitive district with state powerhouse New Cath, a solid program looking for more success in Holy Cross and rising program Brossart. Lloyd needs to put in all the work they can and then some just to get back to being a contender, let alone running the table. There is talent there and it would be nice to see the Juggernauts program make the comeback. The boys just need to keep working and the administration needs to find the right coach. Best of luck to everyone.

Finally, someone calls me on Lloyd running the table!! Running the table may be a stretch, but this team will be a contender next year. We need to get back to just winning first and this new schedule will give this team a chance to put wins together, gain confidence and build momentum. I thought New Cath and Holy Cross lost alot to graduation this year. Brady Hitchew is a fantastic athlete, I love watching him play but that aside what do they have coming back? Newport too while Im asking?

Got a name?

 

Would like to share it but he might not appreciate that. PM me.

They will have a balance like they haven't had in several years Neverwrong! Practice today was high intensity and alot of bodies out there..The kids are very pumped as well as the coaches..

I agree, I think this will be alot more than a running team this year! Im very happy with the coach and his staff, this is a completely different look then in the past. I can't wait to see them on the feild! He has done a great job so far of creating some excitement, alot of new faces out there this year!

Hopefully with all the players coming out this year, some of the players that had to play the entire game last year will get some breaks and not be so tired in the fourth quarter! But on another note if he keeps this program going the way he has been they will be ready for any fourth quarter play!! :taz:

4:30 this week and next, then they go to mornings, 9 and 10 am til dead period.

Finally met the new coach yesterday and what a really nice and motivated person. He will do great with the kids at Lloyd and will turn the program around. He also has some good enthusiastic coaches and the kid's are loving what they are experiencing right now. Good Luck Jugg's. JD

Up to 17 seniors on the team as of now! These are kids that have been playing for a long time. Some that moved away but are back. Some chose not to play the last couple of years but are now back. This is a very seasoned team and the level of excitement is just awesome! Season is just around the corner!

Hey DRKARK, just fly under the radar and not let everyone know about your secret weapons returning. Go Jugg's. JD
