[The Contrarian]

I swore to myself that I wouldn't post regarding this game, but I guess I'm just a brute for punishment.

My heart goes out to the seniors on this team, for most of them have worked extremely hard to become better players, but, at this point, the return on investment is nil.

Last night's debacle was very disappointing, SC made so many mistakes, the snaps were not good, to say the very least. I saw many standing up and watching instead of blocking, and they are getting the backs killed.

Taylor Chapman, Tim Smith, Chase Lafferty, Kristian Skyles, and freshman Trevor Blackburn played hard. But it takes eleven men to make a team. Unfortunately, Lafferty and Skyles were knocked out (literally) and saw no action after the injuries. Another young man, whose name I don't know was also knocked out. I certainly hope and pray that none of these guy's has a concussion.

I have (above) praised Tim Smith's play but I would like to see him add another skill to his repertoire, and that is to block when he doesn't have the ball.

Belfry has an exceptionally good team and a great program. I noticed that they had a least twice as many dressed as did SC. This speaks loudly for what a consistently good program can do for a school. It creates a lot of interest and desire to be a part of the team.

It seems that SC has a plethora of problems and definitely needs to vastly improve.
