aTmfan06 Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 Thought vidor was gonna be better ..
robanadana Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 We have a lot of work to do but I expect better things from the team in the near future. New coach and a mostly junior and sophomore team. No excuses however, we have a lot of work to do....
mytwocents-28 Posted November 30, 2011 Report Posted November 30, 2011 This was Montana's first game back and i would venture to say that he is one of the best players on the team so I don't see much into this game. I will make my prediction on the season after a few games and see how we gel and work together and how Sterling does.
texas2step4u Posted December 1, 2011 Report Posted December 1, 2011 The Pirates arent a team yet. It will take some time before they gel together. They had a good summer league and beat some good teams along the way, but now that things are organized, lack of varsity experience, maturity, and team play are showing up. It really is what was expected early on. I dont think that the Pirates planned on being 1-2 right now, but thats how it is. Looks like Orangefield figured out that they had to put a lot of pressure on Reagan inside to keep him from getting his shot off, so he will have to adjust if teams keep doing that. He averages about 15 a game and all of it inside and last night he was held down to 6 points or so. Once the sophomores get better acclimated to varsity, they should take some of that pressure off of him....it just all takes time and hard work. I know that Coach Sterling has them working on drills daily that will eventually get them to where they need to be. Stay positive with the coach and the players. They need us to encourage them. They know that they are inexperienced and playing poorly bothers them. It may be tough all year, but they are building a program that will deliver good results.

Something that can be improved. We played well inside....just need to locate that shooting guard and get in his grill.
