I agree with some of these users on here about ThinBlueLine411 he won't stop on the McGlone leaving and the Maynard hire. It didn't matter if McGlone finished out his career coaching at Russell for another 2 or 3 years or more because Coach Maynard was going to taking over when he did or after McGlone would have left later. Coach McGlone would have been beaten by Belfry at Belfry the couple of times just like Maynard was beaten by Belfry. The last 4 or 5 years the Belfry team could have beaten some College teams. The bottom line is that you can't argue with ThinBlueLine411. No matter if your a huge Coach McGlone fan because I was and seen it all graduating at Russell in the 80's you still stand behind your team no matter if McGlone is coaching or Maynard is coaching. Coach Maynard did an outstanding job at Raceland while he was there and he has done an outstanding job at Russell in his 4 years. There was many injuries to Key players on offense and defense to start the season and QB Church wasn't the same with his injured shoulder to start the season and he is still not back 100%. Just look at the 5 or 6 athletes we lost at beginning of the season and that is why we are 5-5 this year. We didn't even have QB Church tonight and was playing with our backup QB tonight. If Russell had stayed healthy at beginning of season and had a 100% QB Church and WR and DE Ryan Stump this team would have been different. We lost 3 or 4 CB's, 2 RB's and WR and many on the defensive side of the ball. If we had everyone healthy at start of season we could have beaten GC, Fleming County, and maybe Ashland and Raceland. We could have been 7-3 or 8-2 with everyone healthy all season. We have outstanding freshman coming up next year to go with the talent we played this year and Russell will be back winning 9 or 10 games real soon.
