HVAC you are so clueless we just played them and they are so young they will struggle all year and we set are game plan to face guard the red head who is only a sophomore and he still hit 3 3s on us. He shoots the 3 at 40 percent and yes he is to small to play the 1 as of now. They are playing so much better after the PG left he never stepped on the floor until this year at any level. Coaches realized he was not very good and were putting him on the bench that's why he left. I can only imagine how good you were I do bet you never played a minute of varsity basketball. You make up stats and think people listen to you there very easy to find if you look. He averages 7 3s attempted a game and makes a average of 3. Look it up. Schindewolf shoots a little lower percentage but still can stroke it. That's 2 sophomores and there 6'4 post is a sophomore. We will probably drop them after this year with so many upperclassmen. Also there only win came against a team we lost to.
Alright, you obviously know more than I. I'll admit, the stats I quoted were given to me by a former coach who watches the games much closer than I do. But as you said, they're easy to find so I went and looked. I said 20% and you said 40%. The stats show we are both wrong. He's at 23%. But good thing you called me out on my "20%".
MHS vs CVCA: Pappas shot 10, made 1. Schindelwolf shot 8, made 4.
MHS vs Canton South: Pappas shot 9 made 1. Schindelwolf shot 5, made 0.
MHS vs Waynedale: Pappas shot 12, made 3. Schindelwolf shot 13, made 6.
MHS vs Waterloo: Pappas shot 15, made 4. Schindelwolf shot 15, made 4.
MHS vs Triway: Pappas shot 13, made 5. Schindelwolf shot 12, made 2.
All games combined Pappas had more turnovers by himself than the rest of the team put together.
Then you said they benched the PG. Kid started and finished every-single-game. Had highest number of assists, points after turnovers and was the only one who got the ball across the line. I was at every game, were you? There was no indication of any “benching”. If you’re right and he “never stepped on the floor at any level” he sure made quite a showing before his exit. Koach France told me he dunked as a freshman JV PG so it seems you’re wrong on that too. If he stays in the PAC and/or stays with the game I guess we’ll see firsthand if he rides the bench the next two years as you surmise. Either way, another up and comer with potential exits Manchester basketball.
Listen, I've got no dog in this fight other than I'm alumni and I want nothing more than a winning season for our boys. That, and maybe what most others around town want, a new varsity coach. I want the best for these sophomores but maybe they're a tad undercooked? Might there have been better, seasoned players that were run off in recent years now leaving us a varsity team made up predominately of sophomores and freshmen? There’s absolutely nothing wrong with using the “red head” for 3’s, but you proved my point that our coach has all his eggs in one basket. Did you see any plays that aren’t focused on his 3’s? Kid never comes off the court but has zero, ZERO defense and can’t hold onto the ball. What happens when every team face guards him? You get a 1-10 record I guess. Coach is repeating the same old song as previous years (remember Jojo?). Zero depth, all hopes pinned on one player. Each year we lose players with great potential. They either transfer out or quit altogether due to the coaching staff. With stats currently at 1-10 will Manchester finally talk about replacing the coach?
