Guest Pay the piper Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 First off clock management at the end of the game. Key defensive players taking theirselves out of the game cause they are so tired they can't go anymore. Bridge City put 10 in the box at times cause they knew Buna wouldn't pass. Do I need to go on
Riding Solo Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 [quote name="cantankerous" post="1288096" timestamp="1349118648"]Tackling should be taught in practice and obviously hasn't been. Adjustments should be made at halftime and Bridge City was the only team that made adjustments.[/quote]Not from Buna and did not watch the game. I agree with tackling issue, fundamentals seem to be a lost art at many schools not just buna. On the flipside for buna, I would think it would be hard to make adjustments when you are up 24-0 at the half. What Buna did in the first half seemed to be working.
bruno994 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Was not at the game, had other committments, that is why I am asking for your point of view. As far as passing, the passing QB could not play this year due to previous injuries, losing him has really hurt this team as far as not having to be so one dimensional. However with that being said, I am taking nothing away from Patrick, I think alot of Glen and truly know he leaves everything he has out on the field every Friday night. Breaking him and a number of others out every few series might help as the game gets into the 4th quarter, especially on the offensive side of the ball. Once again not arguing your points, just getting your side. Riding Solo, you just made my other point. Your up 24-6 at the half...why not stick to the game plan, it's working. Hats off to the BC coaches for making the adjustments that a team who is behind 24-6, should make.
cantankerous Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 BC was already making adjustments before the half. Buna last scored with over 8 minutes left in the half. Buna was being shutdown long before halftime got there. Defensive backs couldn't cover BC receivers just as they haven't covered receivers all year.
Guest Pay the piper Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Patrick pulled hisself when the game was on the line at the end cause he was so tired. IMO he is a must have on defense. There has to be someone that can run punts back or kick field goals or hand the ball off.Do we even have a backup QB? Patrick is our best athlete and we have to have him on D when we play passing teams for sure. The other cornerbacks just don't have the speed except 42. As far as adjustments the plays we scored on seems like we ran them a 100 times after that. Our secondary is suspect to start with and we over no help over the toplike maybe 2 safeties

I also agree on the Patrick being our best overall athlete, and in a running offense, surely there is a Soph or Junior that can get the ball to Ford and Biddle. Could not agree more. See, you thought I was going to argue with you and here I am agreeing.
Guest Pay the piper Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 We could put in a freshmen to hand the ball off in our offense.
cantankerous Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Ford was out against BC, hopefully back this week. Perry Smith did ok as his replacement.
cantankerous Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Kelly on the jvwould be a better choice than either of those 2
bruno994 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Haven't got to see the JV yet, heading out Thursday night to watch them though.
Guest Pay the piper Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Don't know the Richarson kid but Clark is starting Defense I think he is in the same boat as Patrick. Don't know why Clark is starting D not my idea of a strong safety maybe a corner
Guest Pay the piper Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Who is the Richardson kid and the Kelly kid
cantankerous Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 JV will flat out hit you. Unfortunantly they have a long year ahead of them. Predominantly freshmen playing other schools jv's. BC jv was mostly juniors and szophomores. Most of these 3a schools have a freshman team, Buna doesn't.
Guest Pay the piper Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Which one is a good athlete. Are they on varsity or JV. Who is the backup to Patrick.
Riding Solo Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 It would be nice if we was back in the old district, OF, HJ, HF, Buna, Kountze, EC and AP. It will be hard for the smaller schools to compete year end and year out with the likes of WOS, Silsbee and BC. Not crying about it just calling a spade a spade.
Guest Pay the piper Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Who is the JV qB and has anyone played QB other then Patrick this year
cantankerous Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Kelly is jv qb but he is only a freshman. Could help in defensive backfield though.
Guest Pay the piper Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Not many freshmen step on the field for the coogs on Friday nights.
cantankerous Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Some of the sophomores shouldn't be either.
Guest Pay the piper Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 I agree with that statement. Edwards is the only sophomore who should be playing all the time. He is the only one who should be starting all the others should be backups.
cantankerous Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 And now you're back to coaching, or as in Buna's case, lack of coaching.
Guest Pay the piper Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Some of the sophomores are benefiting from lack of skill position players in the upper classes not having very many. It's good they are getting experience now though
Riding Solo Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 I know these coaching are getting paid but coaching is not as easy as it looks. Lots of coaches from the stands. To be honest, the offense Buna runs gives them the best chance to win just like Orangefield. Simply because they do not have the numbers or the skill people to pass more than run. JMO of course!!!!! Don't get me wrong, I think both schools should pass more. They both need balance but the wing-T is a very deceptive offense. But again the problem is fundamentals is not being taught anymore in high school sports at all levels. ;)
