[-STAT-]

This team has no identity, a true team identity. Every time someone mentions them, it's all Keathley all the time. They have some decent young players that don't get talked about much, if any at all, then you have Napier & Allen who are your veteran players, they get talked about more but not like they should.

It all boils down to coaching, bc this team doesn't have it. I've seen them play once thus far against FC, and you can tell there's a ton of dissention on this team, for obvious reasons, but it looks like from an outsiders perspective that Tackett doesn't have a grip on anything when it comes to team chemistry, trying to find a resolution to these problems. Like mentioned already, I guess a new offense was installed to try and fix those issues, but haven't worked any, if that's not going to work, then nothing will, but the fact that they're having to change things such as that just a few games into the season? Not a good sign at all. You really hate it for the Seniors on this team, but by the looks & sounds of it, they don't want to even be there anyways. It's easy to say ohhh you can't blame the Keathley kid, he's a kid, young and he thinks he can win every game 1-5, but at a certain point you have to start throwing it to him, am I right? In no way am I bashing the kid and I don't want anyone to think that's what I am trying to do, but he is a sophomore in high school now, he isn't in the 6-7th grade, at some point, someone has to pull him aside and say hey, you have to make some sacrifices for the betterment of this team, but at the same time it may just be too late to even attempt something like that, he is so accustomed to playing how he plays, sure would be tough for him to change now. I was honestly surprised he even went back to Pburg to begin with, but I think he will transfer after this season.

Maybe I am wrong or completely off base with all this, but to move the program forward you have to hire a head coach who would be motivated to turn things around, have a great rapport w/ the feeder schools and develop a good program w/ those coaches for the players coming up. Only thing you worry about is parents or anyone else not staying out of your way and not giving the adequate time to try and rebuild. Administration knocked it out of the park with the football HC hire, but they've obviously whiffed on basketball.
