It seems at times we go over and over the same old stuff year after year. McGloan and the coaching staff call the wrong plays. McGloan calls a play and the players have no idea what he is calling. What are we trying to say? The coaches have all lost thier minds and have no idea what the plays are.

Horse crap. These are coaches that took Russell to the state chamionship game two consecutive years are the same coaches that made Russell a school that has earned respect on the field. It was not so long ago that signs appeared around Flatwoods and Russel that said "Ivan for President". How soon we forget. I'm tired of hearing the crying and whinning about play calling. Ivan is here, he is not going away because of a few disgruntled fans. We have a hall of fame coach. How many other teams can say that? Not many.

Just maybe we don't have the talent that we have been blessed with the past 10 years. We have been blessed. How fast some forget.

Amen.

We don't support the coaches blindly. We support them for good reason. They have proven over and over again that they can not only win, but win on the biggest stage, given the right group of players. During the last decade, they had quite a few teams who had quite a few players who really dedicated themselves to the weights. If a few of the underclassmen realize it takes a year round commitment to get bigger, stronger, and faster, then Russell will be right back to competing for state championships again. If not, then they'll still be above .500 because the coaching staff is top notch.
