Akron Buchtelwho did they play?
Schedule says, thursay the 11th @ 6.I thought freshmen played tomorrow at 6pm
I was a little late getting there tonight, but from what I saw, our freshmen scored once and held Buchtel scoreless.Anyone hear how the freshmen did today?
Trayonn is the starting RB correct?I was a little late getting there tonight, but from what I saw, our freshmen scored once and held Buchtel scoreless.
I believe that I missed a series for each team however.
The starting running back for us was in a boot and on crutches, so he obviously didn't play.
Bro imo I really don't have any concerns I mean it's August I guess that's because I'm a coach and I understand everything might not look good right now but just because you don't look too good in August don't mean you can't be holding the trophy up come December everything comes and due time yes I will agree with you Avon look pretty good but who's to say Avon might not get knocked out in the first round of the playoffs you never know you know what I mean I think we'll be fineYou guys act like the people who are voicing their concerns following the scrimmage (anyone with a brain who watched that scrimmage walked out of PBTS with some concerns) are being dramatic but are being even more dramatic with your responses.
If you don’t have any concerns that’s fine. My concerns have only been with the O line being ready for Moeller as they haven’t shown that they are ready for that, YET.Bro imo I really don't have any concerns I mean it's August I guess that's because I'm a coach and I understand everything might not look good right now but just because you don't look too good in August don't mean you can't be holding the trophy up come December everything comes and due time yes I will agree with you Avon look pretty good but who's to say Avon might not get knocked out in the first round of the playoffs you never know you know what I mean I think we'll be fine

What is going on with all these injuries? I don't think I remember an off-season where Massillon had so many players out this early.No Bond, Jones, or Lennix
Yep. Lol next week will be roughHeard we’re looking bad again, any truth?
Many posters have mentioned that Massillon is very talented. But talent alone does not win state titles. And I know that's what Massillon shoots for every year. Hard work, team chemistry, on field communication, DISCIPLINE, heart, fundamentals, execution, focus, etc.. the intangibles. It sounds like they may not have the intangible ingredients it takes. But.... 1.) it is early. 2.) it was only a scrimmage. 3.) Avon is no joke.There is a lot to clean up. And nope still no blocking on the run plays by our WR’s. Now the talent is absolutely out there. I have no doubts about that. Like I said we need Jones and Bond back and we will get them back most likely week 2. We were without Lenix and our 3 top safeties. But all that said that wasn’t my concern. We had way too many penalties again on simple things. False starts etc… so where is the discipline? Avon barely had any penalties. I don’t think Avon has near the talent Massillon has. But they were disciplined. They were ready to play. They looked sharp for a first scrimmage. I don’t understand why we weren’t? And last I’ll take the discipline a step further, we had guys all over the place on the sidelines. I don’t know how many times we had a coach trying to find a guy to rotate in because they were off talking to someone in the stands or just way away from the team. That right there shows me that you aren’t ready to go when you’re number is called. Discipline and being focused on what we needed to do today to get better was again a problem today. I try not to get to crazy over a scrimmage but I seen a team across from us today who’s been to the state semi finals 5 years in a row look the way I expect our Tigers to look. Very disappointing and I’m blaming most on the head coach.
Massillon will be fine, come November. The Moeller game will be tough, though. Iron sharpens iron, of course, so it will ultimately benefit the newer starters and contributors.Many posters have mentioned that Massillon is very talented.

After reading all of this, it makes it hard for me want to drive 2 1/2 hours one way to see them play Moeller. So I'm looking at 2 other games instead. But it's all about staying healthy and peaking at the end. Just 1 mans humble opinion.
They’re struggling, but missing 2 key lineman that will be starting once healthy which is likely week 2 or 3Next week will get ugly. This could be a very long season. The O-Line is horrible.
