Coors9 10 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 Ok. What is wrong with Graham? no offense i love graham i bleed cardinal and gold but why cant they hold on to the ball? and the center, oh lord don't get me started on the center hes in the backfield more than the running backs! The secondary is just horrible, the #10 and #33 kid are just f'in horrible yea brewster has shown some signs of being there but thats it. As for #21 there is all the hype leading up to him is crap i mean yea he has great size and some pretty good speed for his size but HOLD ON TO THE FOOTBALL? Come on guys this isn't Graham G-men football lets go the season is still young and you have a great chance at a District Championship if you will just work for it, the seniors need to step up and be leaders for this young team!!! COME ON GUYS!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom 10 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 those slippery hands sure didnt help them against Bluefield. Marrs has to go back to the basics and make sure the fundamentals are there and it all starts with holding on to the ball! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunz9 71 Report Share Posted September 2, 2007 No need to panic just yet. I was part of the 98 team that started out 0-3 and i think we had about 20 total points in those first three games. Carlock finally straightened us out and we ended up second in the district, won regionals against Lebanon and made it all the way to the state semi's before getting beat.

Only time will tell. I hope Graham gets it turned around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] I agree! Marrs could find someone else its not the "Marrs Show" down there at Graham. if you son isn't getting the job done then get him outta there....Marrs needs to relize that he needs to do whats best for the team not what will get his son on the field!

old_school_blue 247 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 Try a freshman, namely, Skyler Bunker. He is a Center and SWD fans will get used to hearing his name. Tough, hard nosed, and intelligent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he get that maybe JUST MAYBE he'll be alright. i mean this kid is gettin embarrased out there. i mean ive seen backs run into him on certain plays bc he is so far in the back field. I vote to get him off the field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is no different than any graduate. He I am sure has good reasons for not playing at Graham, kind of like our former quarterback. Now if you want to press him on why, that is your business, otherwise shut the hell up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ghsfan4life 10 Report Share Posted September 3, 2007 The point is this... It does not matter whether he quit or just did not come back if he still goes to graham (which he does) it is not cool to talk bad about your previous teammates. Also I know Will Cole and know his reasons for leaving and it is his choice to make. No matter the outcome these are kids trying to play football and alot of the team has heart. Maybe they need to work on unity but they need to be lead by someone who knows unity. Apparently this has not been handed down from those that have left. Before you start making accusations remember they are just kids and it is just High school football!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/ QUOTE ] LOL I'd love to see the look on a NCAA or NFL Center's face if you told them that. It's almost like telling a HB/FB, "It's not that hard to grab the ball and run with it. You're just not an athlete." Honestly, that's the most ridiculous thing I believe I've ever read on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GHS61 10 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 not saying the center should leave but i did read some say graham has noone else to play at center and thats wrong the two starting tackles for graham both had there hands in the center's position me being one of them i played center all of my freshman year before starting tackle my sophomore year so centers we have and good backups at the tackle spot have shown they can play at practice and scrimmages so if theres not a change its not because of lack of talent that can play there besides its not my decsion to make or the team's we have to line up and play our best regaurdless of wether its the marrs boy or george bush it dosnet matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

total 12 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 center is the 2nd hardest and 2nd most important position on the team. guard would be 3rd... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sup_rbeast 296 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 The bigger a player is, the easier it is to play center. I played it at 5'10", 155 lbs against some of the best competition in the state...and it wasn't a cake walk...especially when a number of the nose guards and defensive tackles were at least 6'4", 260.
