He’s got several assistants that have done a good job this year. Nobody is calling the shots but the coaches on the staff. Haha, yeh buddy.

The key to the Bears' success the next 2 years will be the QB spot. Who and how that role is handled will determine good vs great seasons. The other pieces will be there. Your exactly right the QB position will be biggest problem next year. Travis is a great coach but he sure hasn't been able to figure out that position except 1 year with spears. Hall put up great numbers but that was the best receiving group I've ever seen in high school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigWinners Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 If Wise underachieves and stinks next year, it'll be because coaches start listening to parents. Never listen to parents.

Too many administrators and school boards give an ear to bad sports parents these days and if a coach is willing to let parents influence decisions as far as plays, who plays, how much time etc. , then that coach has no business coaching either. Coaches are really in a no win situation , you cannot please everyone and shouldn’t even try.

Mountain Football Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 Graham has good group of freshmen and sophomores. How well will they grow and develop? I guess only time will tell. Hitting the weight room is obviously going to need to be a priority. I think the offense may need to be tweaked just a little bit to fit the personnel. Curious to see how this group of kids develops.

Only parent that might possibly have an input is Tester and he’s an excellent coach and on the staff. Why start this stuff? No other parent of any player is telling this staff what to do. No pnut coach is telling them what to do. Just stop with the nonsense. The message you’re telling is wrong. Are you there at practice and in the film sessions and game planning?

Warriors_XO Posted December 8, 2019 Report Share Posted December 8, 2019 I think, for Central, the key is just getting better at what they do. All the pieces are in place. They didn't decide to install the Wing T until late in the summer, and that took several weeks, even into the season, to learn the system and begin to gel. That why everything kinda came on late. Kinks had to be worked out on offense. Defensively, the right personnel combination wasn't fully in place until about week 5, but once that happened things started to click. I think, barring injuries, this team should hit the ground running next season and maybe even exceed expectations. Time will tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's terrible but he throws alot into double coverage. I think he just has small hands because the ball floats on him. I do think he's a good athlete and might be a helluva receiver.

Do you always pull your son into your internet disagreements? I'm starting to think you are so upset because they left you out. I'm sure they are only taking advice from knowledgeable parents Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I agree here. He will only get better with a full year under his belt plus the off season. Plus I wish that they would let him read defense's and find the open man instead of pre determined man to throw too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think they know who the ball is being thrown to when they break the huddle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
