king Posted October 26, 2010 Report Posted October 26, 2010 Dp you have to admit we had good athletes in 07 also but the injury bug got us. When bickham was there we were disciplined and if we weren't he would of corrected it real fast ;) but when healthy this team is dangerous. GO PIRATES!!
DP#1FAN Posted October 26, 2010 Report Posted October 26, 2010 We have always had good players. Our kids play with a huge heart, you may not see in alot of teams.
Clsof87Pirate Posted October 28, 2010 Report Posted October 28, 2010 Yeah Deweyville has "good players" and always play with alot of heart. But we are talking Bottom Line here. not what could be. Somebody tell me how in the world a defensive back who runs a 5 flat forty can cover a reciever who runs a 4.4. Thats not lack of discipline! As far as being in the Old district being a nightmare? What? We are 0-3! How would it be worse????? I believe we won some district games in THAT district last year. The reality! No matter what disrtict we are in, we are going to be the small school,Unless we drop down. Yes we have made play-offs in past. But we could make them just about every year in 1a. And before someone else accuses me of Whining, Im just stating facts, not whining. The one post that made sense is; YES you do have to get these young kids in the program early. thats with any sport. But like I stated. LACK OF TEAM SPEED! TOO MANY ONE WAY PLAYERS! LACK OF SIZE!= 0-3 in district.

The Pirates do not have anyone that runs a 4.4 so you put your best out there to cover the WR and teach them proper technique, i.e., at snap of ball back peddle, read the receiver and turn and run, read and react, if you sit in your stance at the snap of the ball and look into the back field then try and get back in coverage then yes the WR is already by you which has repeatedly happened this year, that's poor technique that's been addressed in practice. You will never have great team speed or alot of numbers (player wise) at Deweyville, that's just the facts, what you do have is a bunch of kids that are hard nosed and tough who will play hard till the last whistle. In a perfect world they would drop to 1a, but we know that's not gonna happen so you suit up with what you got and go out and teach them how to play the game, and play it right. Coach McDaniel swiftly handled the disciplinary problem and the other players got the msg. The Pirates are gonna be fine they just need to get a leader on the team and play together, team ball. The future is bright at Deweyville.
oldollie Posted October 28, 2010 Report Posted October 28, 2010 There are teams who win their districts all over the state who are the smallest schools in their district. The community needs to stop putting in the kids heads the idea they cannot win because of this. Just my opinion.

Just_Saying Posted October 28, 2010 Report Posted October 28, 2010 Plenty of ways to get bigger, faster, stronger. A summer in the weight room would have done this team good
TTB Posted October 28, 2010 Report Posted October 28, 2010 they do have a summer weight program but they just need the whole football program to participate in it
Just_Saying Posted October 29, 2010 Report Posted October 29, 2010 That all falls on the kids. Its up to them if they want to work and get better.
