I had to comment on this post even tho i try not to and usually I like your post. There is only one thing in here that I will totally disagree with. I have played football since I was big enough to carry a ball and try to look at things all the way around on a footbal field. I can tell you that being a ball carrier is a lot different then people may see from the stands. For 1, the reason for all the ball carriers to be upright is to be able to cut to the open hole. Now I know a lot of poeple doesn't know what that means but like my coach has always said if there is no hole then you will not make the yards. Now watching this years team I know that the caoching staff does have their work cut out for them because on a lot of plays our offensive line misses, loses, of just refuses to do what they are suppose to do. Yes i know that it can be difficult but atleast some effort would help your backs to start running down hill. Kain has tried to put different running styles in his game because he can't just run everyone over each time he gets the ball. Even tho he is strong and runs hard, there are others out there that like our boys do work out too. Please don't take any offence to this post, I was wanting to also point that out. Also we all split the team up into multiple parts and not as a whole. Personally to me as a whole the only game I was the most disappointed in was the Belfry game. With some of the leaders out the team looked lost and really the blocking was abandoned but could have been some of the younger guys in, which I agree with like you said that they are going to need some time to get adjusted to the high school speed of the game. I also like how they use more weapons in the passing game no just loking to Joseph or Bryson, Giving them credit they are good athletes, but no team can key on just one player when the ball starts to get distributed around to multiple players. So once again no disrespect everyone has their own opinions. And yes if anyone who reads this I am Kain's Uncle. :biggrin:

Hope you took what I said in the spirit intended...

Please don't get me wrong, I really enjoy watching your nephew running the ball. He runs as hard as anyone I've seen carry the rock. And yes, sometimes there is no hole to run through. Was just making a point when that's the case and it's a -short yardage- situation, a fullback should try to go through the tackler's arms - not stop to look for a different hole.
