*OF vs. HF/OF wins 54-9/Comments

[fisherking]

I'm really disappointed in my Longhorns this year.  But its not their fault.  The Head Coach is trying to run a 3A program like a 5A program.  The kids in 3A programs need to play however many sports they want to play not concentrate on one because then you get most of your athletes play one sport and its not football, so that's one reason your losing every game.  HF has plenty of talent at the school why not use it to your advantage besides being just a football coach!  I Hope Coach Tilton our defensive coordinator gets the head coaching position next year because he knows Longhorn Spirit and Pride that we have always been known for.  It has faded completely away since Coach Tarver left.  Coach Tilton was his defensive coordinator back in the good old days  (O zone)!!!  I hope this message gets out!

I am not sure what this post is saying? Are you saying the coaches are making kids play football even though they do not want to? Because I heard they had only 65 kids playing football this year. Sounds to me like kids are choosing not to play football to play other sports but this is not what you said. Please elaborate since you posted you are from there and played there.

I guess the coach caused the fumbles?

For some reason, the HF grades from 7th grade thru high school are having a problem fielding a full team. Maybe it's just a period where the numbers are low for football teams.

I think we need to give Coach Mangan 1 more year. Basically what he has to work with is JV talented players playing at the Varsity level, and freshman talent playing at the JV Level. If he does not do anything with the experience and talent he will hopefully have back next year, then IMHO a change will need to be made.

Honestly, he has done nothing with the experience and talent he has had in the past. Look back at the class of '09. They had guys like Burrell, Daigle, Koehl, and East who had been starters since they were sophomores and look what he did with that.

If you remember correctly three of the four young men you mentioned were injured for most of, if not all of the season.
