Athens didn't look good against Warren last night

[Jumpstop]

Logan might just be able to avenge themselves against Athens this year. Too bad they chose to pass for "better" competition. However, in this case, that might be true. Athens will not be the same Athens. Definitely a rebuilding year. The mistake Athens makes is putting all their eggs in one basket and only developing their starters from middle school on. That works when you have 5 strong players, on of which is a Doseck. But anything can happen and if you don't have depth,you are going to be in trouble. It is extremely early in the season to make predictions about a whole season. But if the roster is mostly made up of the JV, it may be a rough year. On the positive side, Mcneal will have no choice but to develop all his players. Only good can come from this strategy. Rebuilding is more about the future than the present. However, there are strong players that are not playing for some reason. Maybe they knew the season would be tough without Doseck. If that's the case, shame on them.

McNeal told me last night that he is having to do a lot of "UN-teaching" from the previous coach in regards to fundamentals and defense, and even though some of those kids who didn't come out could help, that they had so much to learn that long term he will be better off working with the young kids. anywhere he's been he's done great things when he's had time. I know he still communicates with former players from Lousiana and Kentucky and they are very appreciative of all the things he's done for them. The kids who stay for Coach will be Champions!

Interesting that a successful team would need "un-teaching". I thought the trouble was loosing who ever the "4" best players were and being mostly a JV skill level team. Not to question his wisdom, but to have a good program,you really have to develop all your players, not just your favs. Without depth, you cannot have longevity in the success department. Unless you recruit.

I never said anything about "4" best players leaving, all I can attest to is what Coach told me last time we caught up, which was lots of things to "UN-teach" because all they did in the past was rely on one player. Hope to make it to a few games this year and check them out myself.

I did not state that, so why "quote" me on that???? I know Coach wants no excuses, and your use of my post in quotes (erroneously) looks like an excuse.

[noreply66]

I didn't say you did so why ask..Look at my post it is not a quote. I didn't mention the person that said it. I put the topic ..so it could be looked up to see who said it.

You jumped the gun there.

[Runnersfan]

Whoops, my bad. I wasn't quoting. It was just like noreply said. The 4 player remark was from another thread. And I agree with you jumpshot. I think they did rely a lot on one player. And that one player really elevated the play of the other 4. Anyway, Logan would definitely beat Athens if they played right now. We'll see how the season progresses and how Athens improves. But I'm going to guess this rebuilding phase may take a year or two. Logan should have a great year. Good luck to all!

Gilkey, Stone, and Oberg. That's three 6 foot girls. You can't teach 6'

True.

How did the Lady Chiefs look Saturday?

How did the Lady Chiefs look Saturday?

The girls completely dominated Unioto. I can't remember the final score, 70 something to 30 something maybe? The Chiefs displayed how much of a complete team they are. Getting into the paint with ease, finishing with contact, great 3-point shooting, INCREDIBLE defense. I just remember steal after steal after steal. They are a very aggressive team, especially with perimeter defense.

Thanks

Too bad St Joe didn't play South Charleston at Rio. Be a good ole little school vs big school beat down.

Is the game with Wheelersburg broadcast tonight? Got SAM FM on now and the Eddie Trunk Show is a jamming.

[cbolt]

I was wondering as well.Maybe Scott and Misty didn't make the trip or got sidetracked somewhere,the game before them was at 6:15 so it should be over by now,this is a huge game,maybe biggest of the regular season for Logan

[TRENCHFOOT]

Actual game time start wasn't suppose to be until 8:00. I'm a wondering. Some more misleading media info I guess.
