Larry Lewis. A thank you note!

Thank you all the information you provide us on InsideTulsaSports.com. One of the reasons I come to Tulsa is to see our family there. A member of that family is Weston Brookhart who plays football for Holland Hall. That was a nice article you wrote about the football win over Rejoice Christian. He had a great game for sure which will probably be his career highlight. The grandson is talented and athletic for sure, but don't think he will take it beyond high school.

I didn't get to watch it. I put it on ESPN+ just as they were suspending the game and saw the 2-0 score line and decided to not bother with it. Shot lines and score lines like that are a surefire indication your team is using U12 tactics against college level teams. You're trying to play over the top exclusively and trying to connect with a couple of forwards who are very good and fast, which is also an indication that the coach has no idea how to coach possession and keeping the ball or is not recruiting to a high enough level where he's getting players that can play a possession based game and have the technical skill to do so.

Again, if the AD or any of his underlings are on here...it's time to move on. This coach is not up to coaching a college D1 team and a style indicative of that. I mean from what I have seen so far, they don't even try to keep the ball and work it out from the back or MF, the first ball is a long clearance ball EVERY TIME...and frequently it's to no one in particular.

By contrast, I caught a little bit of the South Carolina @ UGA game last evening. Georgia, extremely heavy in possession and shots but couldn't break through until much later. So. Carolina had a 2-0 lead and the 2nd goal was so quick on a counter attack and the build was freaking flawless, ball moved form the 6 to the outside back to the middle back to the outside on the opposite side and then a quick slot into the middle. Initial shot got blocked but came to a USc player who took 1 touch and freaking hammered home an outside of the right foot shot that curled in far post. It was one of those team goals and shots that make people go WHOA!!! Not saying we should be as good as SEC teams, but we should be able to actually be competitive with every AAC team.

3-1 final. We were outshot 21-5 by UNT. We should never be outshot 21-5 by North Texas. We make a minimal effort to play out of the back. As you said I not sure if it’s lack of talent or lack of coaching. Watching the goalie blindly kick the ball down the middle of the field to the opponent is beyond frustrating. Hell…my daughter’s coach would be screaming the first time that occurred due to losing possession. We generally play two seniors and two freshmen in the back. None of them were elite recruits coming out of high school. I assume our issues are a combination of lack of high level talent and high level coaching. I don’t see recruiting getting better without a change in attitude and effort on behalf of the staff.

Shots were 11-1 in favor of UNT when the game was suspended last night. Just a crazy stat line to have against UNT.
