I'll tell you why the whole senior class QUIT. PLAIN AND SIMPLE. THEY DIDN'T LIKE BEING TOLD THE TRUTH AND WORKING HARD!! The boys playing over, what would have been the senior class, are better athletes. Buddy tells you the truth, won't let you get by with anything, and expects you to give 100% everytime out. He's expects you to be as great as you can, WITHOUT comparing you to others.
Also, my son (and daughter) will NEVER QUIT ANYTHING MIDSEASON!!! They'll finish what they start. Now the boys remaining just have to pick up the pieces and finish out the season.
