    I’m hearing a lot of kids are already buying in (that haven’t played football in awhile) and it hasn’t even been a week. Amazing how hiring one guy can boost moral and change the whole outlook of a program. Jeremy is super excited and ready to get to work. I guess the next question is who will be the assistants and coordinators.

    I wouldn't put GC in the playoffs but with the right offseason program and kids buying in, GC can make an impact sooner rather than later.  I'm excited and hopeful on the future of the program.

    Got word it was a charlie horse for Dean. Took the air out of the Big Blue fans when he went down. He was able to walk under his own power after the game. Scary moment. He should be ok. 
     
    Va High’s program has took the turn that the GC football program took. Hardly any fans, and hardly anything promising for the future. That JV team can barely dribble. GC’s JV is something else, those boys can ball and play some defense with some shooters that’ll put em down.  The varsity played fairly well for the most part. Some things to work on. I do know the Reed kid might be a starter before the season is over. Luke is very physical and creates a lot of 2nd chances with his play on the boards. He hit 10pts tonight off the bench. It was good to be back at the Den tonight. Miss winning big games in that place. But I now see why they dropped us from their schedule.

    From what I’ve seen from the community on social media, folks are extremely happy. As so am I. Housey will give his all for his players and the players will give their all for him. It’s a long road ahead, we all understand that. But we got a fired up, enthusiastic, players coach. That’s what we need right now. The kids trust in Jeremy, he trusts them, the kids love him, as he loves them, he respects the kids, they respect him. That itself will go miles in the rise of the program back to former glory. We must support and be patient. Go Big Blue! Is it August yet?

    Congrats to Jeremy!  Unless I misunderstood, Reed is to be the DC?  Someone correct me on that if I'm wrong.   Not sure about the rest of the staff.  I think GC fans will be more patient in getting things turned around with Jeremy being the Coach.  Its gonna take quite a few years IMO to get the program headed in the right direction, but there should be a noticable difference in a year or so.  Not necessarily in just wins and losses, but fundamentals and also in the attitudes of the players.  The kids will enjoy playing for Housey and he truly cares about the kids. It will be noticeable.  There wont be a lack of enthusiasm from him that can be assured.  I'm sure the folks at Rye Cove seen the same thing from him while he was there.

    Great hire — excited for Jeremy and The Program. The timing is good too, not to let this thing drag on.
    The boys will be crushing steel in the Fieldhouse with the Rocky soundtrack in no time. Get those final licks in...
    Go Blue!

    Ehhh, I disagree.  It's more like 6-7 seasons but it won't take that long to see some major improvement so it won't be n issue.

    Does anyone think it will snow this Christmas?  I don't think that's been discussed yet.  It's already cold and had some flurries and it's early December.

    Exactly.

    It’s one of those 3  
    We’ll know tomorrow night. The coach himself was notified today or will be today, from rumors I’ve heard. 
     
    For the record, any of them will have 100% support from me. And I hope the rest of the GC community will do the same.
