  1. Have you watched this young man practice this season?

     

    Nope just going by history. Lets reevaluate this comment come christmas break, and when times start to get tough for Bellevue over the winter. Hope I am wrong, he has talent and the new coach could sure use a senior like him to be an example for the younger players to learn from, but I won't hold my breathe expecting him to change his stripes. :cry:

  2. The kids that are playing for Beechwood at the varsity level now have also gone undefeated in the JV level the last two years. They also played every night in practice against the players who Beechwood lost, so until someone acually beats a Shumate lead Beechwood team in DIII, I will stick with the tigers, but the competetion should be a little better this year!

  3. Well, since I haven't seen him take any snaps I guess the answer to your posed question is "yes."

     

    Why is this turning into an issue? I'm sure he'll play a lot next season. Heck, who knows - he could still get time the rest of this year and the playoffs. Like a lot of kids, its essentially up to him as to how hard he works and prepares.

     

    I just watch the game. I don't try to be the coach.

     

    Clyde, there is no issue. This discussion started when I simply pointed out that it was interesting that two players who I understood to be two of the CCH varsity's best players were playing in the JV game against Highlands. In subsequent posts, I stated why I made that assumption and gave a link to the Enquirer article to back it up. You (and others) have stated that that is not the case. So be it. Best of luck to your team and to those young men.

  4. While I don't know the reasons I do know that Adam has not played hardly at all other than late-game 2nd team situations for the last 4 or 5 weeks.

     

    Thanks, and I'll just have to take your word for it, Clyde. I didn't realize there were two Connaughtons, my mistake. As for Shumate, sorry for questioning it, but I do find it hard to believe that, as you say, CCH doesn't play him on varsity any more, based on what I saw in the Ryle and Beechwood games, based on what I've heard of him from others (some of them CCH parents), and based on what Shumate's Spartans' coach said about him to me and others at the Ryle game. Why did the Enquirer list him as a "player to watch"? Also, I checked your roster on your website, and Shumate is listed as a 6'4", 190 lb. linebacker/tight end. In another thread, you said CCH was struggling on defense. If he isn't playing, as you say, why doesn't CCH have room for a 6'4", 190 lb. player at linebacker? Sorry for my skepticism, it just doesn't add up.
