Heartbreaker Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I think HOP said that anything less than 5-5 would be a bad season? Care to comment HOP on your quote? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HouseofPain Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Well, those were my words as I looked to the season so I will respond like this; I think everyone would agree that no one is willing to be happy or satisfied with a losing season and that lack of satisfaction is what makes us work harder. I truly believed that the worse the Raiders would do was 5-5 But it isn't the end of the world because they didn't achieve that! Did the loss of some games disappoint me, yes I think it disappointed many but at any point was I disappointed in the Raiders, no absolutely not. I know what it is like to be on the sidelines and not get the results you want the results you work for and I will have to say it is a lot easier and a heck of a lot less stressful to be on the other side of the fense saying "I would have done this or that" but in reality you don't know what you would have done because you are not the one in the pressure cooker. Because I have been there I know what it's like and that is why you will never here me criticize the coaches or players because I know that as a coach no one goes into a season thinking they will do nothing less than succeed and they will work their hardest to the best of their ability to be successful. The only way to help the program be successful is to support the program 100% and I do! I support coach smith and his staff and most importantly the players. I have spent 20+ years of my life try to help the Raider football program grow and it has came a long way. I can remember when an elementary principal threatened to suspend students if they brought a football to school! The Raider football program will continue to grow if everyone does their part and be supportive even in their criticism it's called constructive criticism. It you are destructive even in your criticism you are the problem and can never be any help to the growth of our program. No, a 2-8 record is not what I or anyone else wanted but I am still very proud of the boys for all their hard work and dedication to being a Raider. We have just completed the season but I know coach smith will have the players working hard for next year and because of that I am already predicting a non losing season in 2012! I am a proud Raider and fan and I know those boys and the determination they have and I will continue to support them 100%. go Raiders and Go Get'em Guys!

Heartbreaker Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 HOP there is alot of dissension in our town about how we need to progress with our program, ranging from a coaching change to removal of Robert Jones the AD. What do you think is gonna happen? I would like to hear cellkings and Banker of the Souths take also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HouseofPain Posted October 30, 2011 Share Posted October 30, 2011 HB I don't get involved with the politics I just support the kids that participate in the athletics at MCHS because athletics is the best avenue to motivate the kids to get a good education! But I will say this, the Raider football program has had way to many coaching changes in the last 10 years and the program needs stability so I fully expexct Coach Smith to get the guys into the weight room and have a great off-season and lead the Raiders next year and many years to come and as long as he is the Head Coach I will support him 100% and I hope everyone else does as well!
