coach four hand knocking playing quarters worried
We know there are four quarters to a game, so we weren't really worried at all. Coach told us we weren't playing bad, they were just knocking down the three-ball tonight. So we had to keep our hand out on them and that was all we could do.

believing efforts exactly expected football games good guys handful including individual kids might opportunity players potential realize seven start team until wins
Until our kids start believing in the potential they have, that's exactly what it will be - just potential, ... We're getting some good individual efforts from a handful of guys but we're not getting it from a lot of others. Everyone, including us coaches, expected big things from this bunch. But if the players don't realize the opportunity they have, we might end up being just another better-than-average Hilliard football team that wins seven games or so.
hand
They have so many weapons. You could hand us their playbook and it wouldn't help.

You're not sleeping in your own bed. You have some typical logistical issues that are gonna take you out of your normal routine. We have a young football team and I've tried to explain to them how important it is to be able to handle these 'adjustments' the right way.
district experience handled pulled school share students
As a school district we don't have any jurisdiction or any right to tell them what to do or how to do it. But we want to share with them that it can be a traumatizing experience for students to be pulled over. We don't want to get in the way of them doing their job, but we think it could have been handled differently.

Hands down, they are the best defense we'll face, ... They are in a well-respected conference, and this is the first time in a long time that our guys have seen these types of athletes with that kind of speed and size. So it's a good experience. The thing that I like most of all is our guys remained positive throughout the whole game.

We tried to keep the momentum on our side and control the tempo. We don't normally play a run and gun style, so I was surprised that when we sped up the game, it actually worked in our favor.

We just want the kids to attack. We'll count up the takedowns at the end of the year. We want them to be aggressive, to not shut down for six minutes. We want them going for major decisions instead of regular decisions, tech falls instead of majors, falls instead of tech falls. We want them getting team points, to buy into the team concept, and they're starting to believe in it.

We just got keep adding bricks to the mansion.
carefully climb crash crew entire feeling hatched helm holding mistake opposite rig side southern spike storm sweep top yacht
We were out there in the Southern Ocean, feeling very insignificant in a big part of the planet, ... At any minute, another storm would sweep in. We hatched a plan: Spike and I would climb up and jury-rig the fitting. As we started the climb, I told the crew that they must helm the yacht very carefully on the opposite tack, as the rigging was only holding up one side of the mast. If the helmsman made a mistake while we were up on the mast, we'd crash down over the side with the entire rig on top of us.
