Today in East Ridge's football meeting, Coach Branham asked who could play quarterback on the team and I was curious who will be the quarterback for ER?

Our QB situation will be hard to place. But im not going to say who I think it is just yet.

CoachB · 07-12-2007, 11:58 PM

I'll tell you, whoever has the best composure under pressure and can throw the football.

**warriorpride** · 07-12-2007, 11:59 PM

wow than it just narrowed it down alot.

CoachB · 07-13-2007, 12:05 AM

You may be surprised, I can teach them to throw, if they can handle the pressure and remember the plays.

**warriorpride** · 07-13-2007, 12:12 AM

Well my friend Channing Pugh tries to play QB but he has a nack to throw about 3-4 ints a game but of course these are FM and JV games. but I believe he could be turned into a good QB

Caleb Epling can play a little QB...he is great under pressure but he can't throw that well. The next best QB I can think of would be Brian Casey, even tho he's a frosh.

Thanks for the info!

The real question is if you will use that info or not?

a game? thats quite a few... but whats ER's offense are you all heavy pass or more balanced run??

CoachB · 07-13-2007, 09:22 AM

That gives me a place to start!

channing has worked alot this summer to become a better qb and iam sure if u teach him how to throw more accurate he can do the job

Jimmy Dugan · 07-13-2007, 12:46 PM

i'm not sure who Channing is but I hope he can step up. "if" er puts two recievers on the field, epling will probably be one of them. In that case bryan casey or the pugh kid would have to step up. I know nothing on channing but I know that bryan is the best freshmen qb er has had since its existance.

baseballfan606 · 07-14-2007, 12:28 AM

we will just have to see what this casey kid has on monday...

baseballfan606 · 07-14-2007, 12:34 AM

channing is a decent QB but he needs to work on his hands and his throwing accuracy

champion24 · 07-14-2007, 01:06 AM

channing can throw real far juss not accurate he has potential to be a starter

**warriorpride** · 07-14-2007, 01:54 AM

Yea I believe in him, hopefully this year he will do better.

p_casey#21 · 07-14-2007, 02:37 PM

what do u think about ER's defense this year who will be the starters now that corey feilds aint playin

baseballfan606 · 07-14-2007, 03:00 PM

i dont know about who will be the starters but i dont think the loss of Korey Fields will hurt the defense at all...Korey is more of a offensive player rather than defense

~~Jonnyappleseed~~ · 07-14-2007, 06:46 PM

I'm glad he isn't playing...from talking to some players last year, in the Phelps game when ER was up big, he didn't want to go in because it was "too cold".

**warriorpride** · 07-14-2007, 07:48 PM

Yea that is true but I guess he got less cold when he ran the Td in after he said that.

korey didnt even start defense

**warriorpride** · 07-14-2007, 10:07 PM

He didnt start offense either.

~~Jonnyappleseed~~ · 07-14-2007, 10:23 PM

He's talking about this upcoming year...He would have probably started at corner.

CoachB · 07-15-2007, 12:28 AM

How can he say that he would have started corner. Alot of speculation here. If he's that good he needs to show it and not talk about it. Monday 6:00!!!!

Coach I whouldnt get my hopes on corey I heard from several of his friends that he isnt going to play.

CoachB · 07-15-2007, 12:53 AM

We will play with or without him!! It takes 11 at a time on the field and from what I saw Thursday, I am happy!:Thumbs:

Shizzy · 07-15-2007, 02:27 AM

I think we will be alright without korey, if he plays he plays and if he dont then he dont we dont need to focus on one player cus they cant do nuttin without the other 10

It appears to me Coach B that this kid spells team with an "I" in it.....someone needs to let him know what team is...
T =together
E= everyone
A=acheives
M= more

A lot of kids these days seem to have that "Iam the team" disease...or "I dont like the coach he yells at me" crap it's FOOTBALL if you aint got the kahunas stay home and play your xbox or what the hell ever....My hats off to all the fine young men on every team who has the guts to go through two a days and the season..good luck to all the east ky teams this year....
