re-load, not re-build.
we invest way to much in these programs to fall short each year

Second, the players didn't lose this game. They did all they could. The coaching was horrendous. It was completely inexcusable and incompatent, and the reason we lost.
I'm really worried. The players for the most part did what they could. I loved their fight tonight.

The punt block formation on 3'rd down? I've never ever even seen that!!!!I'll agree about passing on the 2 pt conversion. We don't have the level of talent and/or experience across the board that a team needs to be dominate.
