(Genius!!! They'll never see that coming!!!) Injured players playing on phones during game. Injured players and reserves laughing and cutting up during butt stomping. Whispers about the coaching from players after the game. I believe we have officially drove the last nail in the coffin tonight. You know it's bad when fans start leaving before the 4th qtr even starts. Welcome to the new norm of Gate City football! IMO, it won't get better any time soon either. Boone does have a good team, but GC got outgained what? 411 yards? There are already several kids not playing who could greatly help this team and the players we have now are the ones who are playing because they love football regardless of who is coaching them. Just wait until they are discouraged enough to quit playing. I don't think most fans realize yet just how bad it is behind the scenes, but they will.

When I look at my Facebook feed after a 35-0 drubbing and see players posing for pictures with big grins on their faces it makes me sick. No idea how to fix it; ya'll tell me. Maybe Jarhead was right. On to Union, I guess... Yup. You lose, you get your butt back to locker room, shut up, take shower, and go home pissed. There's a couple of players who understand that, and I mean just a couple. Losing has become acceptable by the program. It disgusts me. gc1, Leatherhead Barry and Grapeape 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had one who has played since he was 9 years old quit this past week. gc1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leatherhead Larry 530 Report Share Posted September 17, 2017 He wasn't a starter. But I reckon he had enough of Akers. I'm a firm believer in finishing what you've started. But Akers is really making it hard. I honestly think the man doesn't have a clue. mw0729 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
