I see at least 5 other players starting before McCain. Hardaway, Thomas, Haynes, Brooks and Bush.

What makes you say he will
Not start? Why wouldn't he if he is one of the top 5?
Reed
Elam
Jackson
Grubbs

Wow. They might start over him for reasons that none of us will understand, but when the game is on the line and the best 5 is in, he will be in. Silsbee does not always start the best 5... It really means nothing. But he should start since he is top 5 on the team.

I don't think McCain will be a every game starter. Coach Sigler does rotate some starters. I see a lot of match up that coach will have with this years team. Reed, Elam, Jackson should be every game starter. Hardeway, Grubbs, Brooks, Jenkings, Haynes, Wallace, and McCain should get a lot of playing time and a chance to start. I wish McCain was playing football!!!

I wish they were also, BUT like I told them.. If they don't want to, then don't. If a kid don't wanna play football, don't force them 2. That's how injuries happen! He was a very good football player but said he wants to focus on his dream. Basketball.. Can't be mad at a kid for that

Can't be mad at the kid, but can be mad at the one who is influencing the kid to make those decisions. ;) :-X

The speed of the game will not be a factor for McCain. He didn't just play middle school ball. He played in 74 games with me this year since Feb. against some of the best teams. He will be ready for the speed of the game.

But you can't compare playing against 14 yr old on the AAU circuit to play against 17 an 18 yr old that always a big Difference especially the style Silsbee play of a non stop running  :o got dizzy thinking bout them running

I'm with you there AAW. Been a part of this kids sports life a long time, he is just as important to football as he is to basketball. I wonder if he talked to some past basketball players that where good in football also and see how they liked it? Can't be scared of injuries, they can happen anytime. He can dream big in both sports.

Yes you can... The teams in this district this year, absolutely. I'm not sure if you understand AAU basketball or not, but we played against teams that would finish top three in this district as a 14U team. What do you think AAU basketball consist of? Running running running... Plus most 14U teams are actually 15 because they were held back or failed. If your telling me that the top 14 and 15 year old teams can not be compared to HJ, WOS, HF, Silsbee, Buna, OF, BC... Your out your mind.

I understand your point, but understand mine... He don't want to play football anymore.. There is nothing wrong with that. He is a human being, not a piece of meat for Silsbee to use toget wins... Respect the young mans decision and support him... Maybe Silsbee should start focusing on getting these kids ready for college sports and adulthood rather than using them to get wins.. Just my opinion.

Ask him if you want. I told him he should play.. So if your talking about me your wrong.. When he told me he didn't want to play anymore, I told him then don't play... It's not about what everyone else wants him to do, it's about what he wants. And if people/coaches/fans/sports "specialist" can't respect that, then they don't need to be a part of the kids life. We get caught up in winning and not focussing on the big picture... It's a shame.

So you are saying that some of the aau 14u teams would beat either HJ, Silsbee or WO-S this season, or two of three, or all three? I am not buying that and yes, I have seen aau games.

I believe the experience of the players and the coaching on the sidelines would be too much for those 14u teams. I'd be willing to bet all three of those coaches (Sigler, Sutherland, Wilkes) would have a definite advantage over the opposing aau coach. ;)

You giving aau too much credit in this situation.

McCain will definitely be a varsity player this year and will get plenty of playing time (may even start a few games while the football players are still in playoffs), but don't see him being a regular starter this year. Next year and beyond, he will be the man.

    • I simply asked a question, since at the time of my post no one had reported how the spring game went and that was about 11pm. I did not think my post was negative, simply asking a question. Of course instead of getting an answer on how it went, we get all this half empty and negative comments reactions.  However, I do thank the 2 or 3 post on how they thought the scrimmage went, especially the better coaching comments and the changing of some positions to help the Dogs this coming season
    • I thought the spring game went well! Exciting times for sure. Dogs looking better coached than in the past, tackling looked 10x better.. offense new system, a little growing pains, but with a brand system I thought they did well. The o line looked bigger yesterday than it did in the fall… one thing I was truly glad to see black and gold teams had 2 big rosters so safe to say the football kids are staying in the program and turn out quality work…. Now for the kids to buy into the summer strength and conditioning program the coaches have in store for the athletes. 
    • Why do I have to blame anyone, he was a good President and he'll be a good President again, if elected. Got no problem with the nominee. But after 4 years of what we've been through, you bet I'll blame those that choose to continue down this path when presented with a much more successful option.  
    • Food For Thought “The same Democrats — who condemn Vladimir Putin for suppressing opposition parties and candidates who would give the Russian people a choice — strongly support Joe Biden who is employing the same antidemocratic strategies.” — Robert F. Kennedy, Jr
    • And you continue to blame the other side for not bowing to the situation that your side created.  Can't believe those idiots won't vote for the guy we knew they wouldn't vote for but insisted on nominating anyway.  How dumb are they???
