First off all these schools need to quit treating football like somethin other than entertainment till basketball starts. Secondly the community needs to quit treating the football players like "The kids who werent good enough to play B-ball" Ive heard this comment from one of the schools you mentioneds fans and Im sure thyre not the only ones who feel that way. Thirdly the need to completely restructure their little league and JR high programs. Each school needs to consolidate theyre fedder school teams at this level. Fourthly the coaches on these feeder school teams need to be on the same page witht the varsity staff and run the VARSITY offense and defense instaed of having their own agenda and these kids having to learn a completley new system when they are freshmen. With all these schools numbers they could ALL be region and state contenders in their respective classes. But instead theyd rather win region in b-ball and get blown out by 30 in the first round of the sweet 16 than actually CONTEND for a state title in football.

Why consolidate feeder programs and lower the number of kids that get playing time and experience? Three schoools playing is 33 starters seeing lots of action. Consolidating feeder schools is 11 players playing and getting experience. No high school playoff games are won with county grade school championships. Get your little league program solidified keep your junior high coach intact and put that coach at the high school working with the high school coach.
