GUT CHECK!!!

Unfortunately the Ribault Trojans loss 47-0 to the Trinity Christian Conquerors in what came to be a very dissapointing and embarrasing performance.Nothing seemed to work from offense to special teams the one spark was the kick return team which played particularly well led by the returners James Branch, Jante Boston, and Lakhalon Holland. So our record now falls to 2-4 with 4 games to go and the season will be on the line this week in our 2nd district game against the Jackson Tigers. This week of practice and leading up to this game is what I like to call a GUT CHECK where you can see who really wants it and has the passion to play as hard as possible, and if they are willing to do anything to win with the season on the line. From friends to family to fans to coaches are waiting for this team to play to their potential until the players decide they are going to play hard and everyone DOES THEIR JOB!! The season will continue to be like this so make a decision: Are you going to step up and show that u can step up and overcome all the odds and fight for your coaches and fellow teammates? OR do your own thing? All in all its time to move on and if you believe like i do true leadership will emerge and we will play together and not selfish.

WHERE'S THE EFFORT?

5 games into the season we are 2-3. Effort is the thing that is missing and the difference between 5-0 and 2-3.Now the players are goin to get a real gut check the one thing that should never take a play off is effort. The coaches are doing a good job with the gameplan the players need to go out and execute. The key to winning and losing is winning the battle of the trenches. As I see the lines have to come together separately and decide to control the line of scrimmage if it kills them. From quarterback to safety thus team needs its playmakers to step up a and make plays. So we can have our first complete game of the season. Its time to really beat a tea soundly nothing is going to be giving to you its time for the players to take it and determine how they want this team to finish. If this team is serious about trying to reach the goal of winning a state championship you have to commit your very being to this goal.Until that happens theirs no real chance of success.
