Definitely noticed the wrong colors on the animation, needs some red, white, and black. Looks like 4ringz had his color choices in thereRedRider1;895742 wrote:The board has a "make some noise" animation...but it's in blue and gold (ewww!) Working on changing that but it's not easy.

. You have always been good at making a "spectacle" of yourself! Hey, in all the new scoreboard hoopla, I forgot to inquire about the fate of the old one. Did we keep it?

Graphic of something to get our "fans on their feet", or something that says "make some noise" would be great. Student section needs some motivation
People are not complaining because we are the worst team in Wayne County, we are complaining because so far we arent the best team in Wayne County. We dont play in the Wayne County Athletic league for a reason and so far Norwayne is the best team in the county. To me that is unacceptable with what we have. And if kids were gonna be kids every team would have the same sloppy penalties we have and thats not the case. Copley had some but they didnt turn the ball over and make careless mistakes. As far as Stew Turner getting hurt that sucks but it wont have anything to do with the outcome of the game because our coaches cant figure out how to get him the ball anyway!ridernation;895615 wrote:Wow you would think this team is the worst team in Wayne Co. with all the negativity on here. Its a high school football game not the overthrow of Iran. Mistakes will be made. We could play a mistake free game win by 60 and somebody will still moan about the coach or the players attitude was not right. I am sure these guys are giving their best efforts, I would rather see them be aggressive than lay back so they don't get any penalties.
I wouldn't mind seeing him line up at RB a few times during the game....heck atleast he will get touches. All you would have to run is student body left and student body right...he will do the rest.Red Rider Nation;896374 wrote:People are not complaining because we are the worst team in Wayne County, we are complaining because so far we arent the best team in Wayne County.

TY TY TY! You made my day!And, OQB, I agree on the "student body" plays for Turner. Have Lichti just hand it off and voila'! I certainly understand the fans being disgruntled with his lack of touches. I don't get it, either. Mind boggling. Thanks for the info, Flash.riders1;576847 wrote: It's not too early for Red Rider Football.
Is he durable enough to take some bigger hits that would come from touches from the tailback position? That would be my only concern......he's dinged now, not sure that would be the best long term solution.OQB;896377 wrote:I wouldn't mind seeing him line up at RB a few times during the game....heck atleast he will get touches.

True, that would be the only question is durability.RedRider1;896480 wrote:Is he durable enough to take some bigger hits that would come from touches from the tailback position? That would be my only concern......he's dinged now, not sure that would be the best long term solution.
I'm for getting him the ball in space in as many ways as possible. Short, easy passes.
Can't remember the last time we threw a slant..and he'd be perfect for that.

It was cheaper to buy a new score board than fix that one. It was talked about moving it to the old Jr. high field to be used by grade school tackle teams or to the new jr. high field, but it will be cheaper to buy a newer smaller one and not have to pay to move it and try to repair it.
Red Rider Nation;896360 wrote:Ya and putting the 50/50 up there instead of announcing it is just dumb. The scoreboard is nice but if you take away the graphics at top and all the sponsors around it, its no different than the old one. I dont want to be negative but its not as impressive as I thought. I would be more impressed with a scoreboard like at Wrigley field or fenway where we have to put the numbers up manually as long as it is Orrville on the winning side I dont care.

It's a shame turner is not from orrville or have wealthy booster parents then maybe he would get more touches. All he does is make positive things happen everytime he touches the ball. That is what the coach should be thinking unless he can't see what everyone else does. I'm sure this will tourqe some people off but oh well someone has to say it.Red Rider81;897096 wrote:They know how to get him the ball , problem is more touches for him takes away touches from one of there favorite sons. Name game is still alive and well in orrville.
