Please explain how this so called "mentality" change took place when Coach Maynard took over, and please list your suggestions for improvement. This excuse without any explanation or solutions is :lame:

There are several little things that I have noticed about the mentality of the program since Maynard took over. First and foremost, you don't have to cus out a teenage kid on the sidelines to get your point across as I have seen Maynard do numerous times. The players walk on an off the field and don't seem to have much of a sense of urgency. Last Friday after the game I saw a lot of players throw their helmets and lay down on the field like a bunch of two year olds who didn't get their way. I understand they lost a hard game but have a little self respect and walk off the field with your head held high instead of making a public display like that. Winning games is great but the big picture should be about teaching lifelong lessons and learning how to win and lose with grace. As long as behavior like that is tolerated Raceland will never be championship material because real champions have a good attitude even when they lose.
