Does there come a point that some schools should consider getting rid of football? Matt Stepp tweeted Somerville is on its 6th AD/HFC in 6 years, and even asked the question. My question isn't about Somerville but this problem as a whole other places. Does there reach a point that the struggle of not just winning in football, but even being competitive and the constant turnover of coaches actually negatively affects kids enough to call it quits and focus elsewhere? Somerville coach changed his mind. Somerville back open. https://www.kbtx.com/content/sports/Warren-wont-be-taking-over-at-Somerville-after-all-510099521.html?utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter_kbtxsports Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hate it for those kids. Wonder if they really may be considering ending it at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would’ve agreed with you until this year when we had to play burkeville. It was 32-0 in the first 54 seconds of the game. There’s no reason for them to drive two hours to have to play that game.

They had the same coach for 30 straight seasons with 219 wins, 3 championship appearances, and 2 titles. After this guy retired or whatever happened it just went all to hell. Very interesting. I think it was Hurricane Humberto or maybe Ike that ran a lot of people out of town. They never returned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had two 3 and outs on defense and either ran one or more punts back or ran a punt back once and scored on offense once I’d still would think all that would’ve taken longer than 54 seconds. It didn’t we returned the kickoff. Two fumble recoveries for tds on two plays if I remember right then a punt return. I think it was 61-0 with 3 or so minutes left in the first quarter when the kids were told not to score again started running out of bounds. I don’t think they had a tackle against the first string Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
