I can understand your frustration. Coach Napier and his staff are good men and coaches. I have coached long enough to know sometimes things just go down hill on a coach - a perfect storm of unfortunate circumstances, kind of like us at Russell this year.

The answer is not always changing coaches, there are circumstances beyond all of our control as coaches and that is what has happened at Clay and Russell, unforseen circumstances that changed a promising season into a difficult one for both of us. All you can ask is that your staff keep chopping wood and continue to be a role model to kids. Don't give up too soon on this coaching staff, they are good men and coaches batteling through adversity...

I got to talk to a few of your coaches at the end of the game. They truly care about the young men they lead, and are good coaches, going through a rough patch like every coach will if they coach long enough. Stay the course, support them and I think you guys will have a fine team next year.

Best wishes to you Tiger nation!

I hope you're correct. They have had some things go against them (injuries, players quitting, and failed drug tests) that really hurt this season. Good luck to Russell County as they move forward.
