Troll King;1259243 wrote:I agree with everything you say RedRiderNation except possibly the late hits. Those were pretty lame calls. Those officials were horrible, I think Triway only had one penalty for the game. I counted at least four false starts and several holds not to mention a nice horse collar tackle that were not called. The signal issue must be a coach problem,I believe coach Mac used signals when he was here.

The wide receivers are a part of this team also and there was a lot of stone hands by #s 1, 4,& 22 on some catchable passes and on kick returns and they must catch the ball! A quarterback is only as good as his receivers and linemen help him. Any QB should not have to start they play by looking down at his feet for the ball and then try to find receivers when he looks up. This was a total team effort all around by both the offense and the defense as there were way to many defensive missed tackles and wide open receivers for big gainers all night long. There were far too many defensive breakdowns to just blame the QB for stone hands receivers not performing as they could. Did anyone keep track of dropped passes tonight?

Red Rider Nation;1259274 wrote:Also disturbing was the fact that EVERY snap by our center in the 4th qtr was on the ground! Wonder why? The kid was exhausted. How is that possible? The disturbing part was the fact that our coaching staff couldnt recognize that and start putting Lichti under center. There is one coach on this team that makes adjustments and that was obvious in the 2nd half. The others? Not so much! This regime of coaches has worn out their welcome! I love it too at the end of the first half when the whole Triway team runs off the field including the coaches and Orrville coaches walk off. Leadership is seriously lacking in this program. It starts at the top guys and this guy just isnt getting it done! I know I'm not in the minority on this one. I am just one that isnt afraid to say it. There were many in the stands last night heckling him and I do mean many. I have always looked atg Orrville and the community and the fans as a program that is a smaller simulation of Massillon. Passionate people. Now ask yourself would Massillon put up with the nonsense frfom the coach that we do? They have run people out over there that dont win football games!

Why wasn't anyone who donated two dollars invited to midfield. Hell I donated 25 that should have got me to the back of the end zone lol. I understand I'm not one of the important people in town. Politics as usual in Orrville.

RedRider1;1259343 wrote:You completely missed the point..the large donors ($10k+) were recognized on the field but a thanks was given to ALL donors so as not to minimize anyone's contributions.

It wasn't politics as usual....whatever that means. Those dozen or so donors were responsible for over half of the money raised.

Troll King;1259379 wrote:I see coach called team an embarrassment in the paper. Why didn't you call yourself an embarrassment you were the brain calling the plays. You were the one who stopped running what was working in favor of something we haven't been able to do in three years. I would say you pretty much solidified my opinion of your coaching prowess last night. Imagine another big game another loss. Again magnificent play calling and great coaching.
