Well was gone for the weekend, but I feel I need to respond to some posts, especially red devils rule, I wont sit down and shut my "pie hole" Im just speaking what I feel, and have felt for a long long time, I for sure know ive been around a much higher level of football than yourself, since your highest level is probably russell high football. I just feel that the game passed up coach mcglone along time ago, as far as play calling and scheming and and that attitude of Im gonna do one thing and stick with it no matter what, and just depend on the fact that my kids are more talented than the other kids. Which is why Russell wins alot of games, and mainly we play a weak weak weak weak weak schedule and have for quite a few yrs now. you gotta run more than 3 or 4 different plays. There is no weightlifting program, or atleast not a serious one, there's no preseason conditioning, thats why half the teams is always cramping till the end of the season. these are things that are a must these days, you gotta get out of the 5-2 play your corners 10yds off the ball, and have your safties covering the slants and the deep route's ( i for one have neevr bragged on these coaches, Ive felt that they just slip by on so much talent that Russell for some reason has a ton of for a small school.) and look like they dont even know what's going on. Then running pass plays at the end to Drew, who is a terrific ball player and runner, but recieving is not his strong suit, which is not a big deal alot of great backs aren't, but you need to be going to mitchel and bailey more, and not bender and abrams, although bailey did miss that deep ball that would have sealed the game, it still shouldnt have mattered, Russell was easily 4 td's better than SK, they scored 35pts in the first half, and only 2 FG's in the second half. WHY? becuz like in any big game in recent memory where Russell was up Mcglone went into shutdown, up the middle, and not turn the ball over, that may have worked in the 70's when passing games werent as proficient as they are today. Russell should have atleats put 2, more likely 3 td's up in the 2nd half, Mcglone and his staff know alot more about football than myself, but if ur not utilizing that knowledge to its fullest extent, whats it matter? Im sorry the wing T and the 5-2 need to go into the memory book, Russell should be running a 4-3, and when they play teams like SK and mason next week, whos kids are as talented as ours, you gotta make same changed and get outta the same ol crap, im telling ya russell plays a 4-2-5 against SK and its not even a contest. I know that much and Ive never been a head coach anywhere.
