View Full Version : Graham/WF Rider Scrimmage update
The scripted plays ended 0-0 with Graham intercepting Rider 3 times. Graham had one pick, and a fumble lost.
During the 15 min live quarter Rider outscored Graham 21-7, but Graham did quite a bit of rotating with the 2nd teamers unlike Rider. Rider seemed to play very sloppy with poor route running, and a lot of dropped balls. Graham however seemed to play pretty crisp BUT only with the coach's son in at qb.
This is where it gets interesting
Case McCoy has got to be the best damn freshman ive ever seen play...EVER. There has been a lot of controversy surrounding Coach McCoy moving his son up to play Varsity, and im not going to lie I was skeptic of it myself (only hearing of how good he was in jr high and not seeing it with my own eyes). This kid is the truth...He led Graham down the field on there only scoring drive (with the 1st team O). He actually LED this team, playing calm and congratulating players when they did good, and consoling them when they did bad. He passed and ran on them at will, and ran this O to perfection. If Case does not start the season something is truly wrong.
I didn't think Graham was going to be as good as they showed, and would have to strongly reconsider them as a playoff contender. They played well against class 4A’s #10 team.

I had a feeling that Graham would put it together this year.
The only knock on the Fosh QB would be when he really gets the snot knocked out of him....how will he respond? Will he played scared or will he go at it full speed the very next play? If he does start this year -- look out when he is a senior!

I agree, but you can not deny the talent.

some of us tried to prepare the world for the start his freshman year. The kid is the real deal for sure.

You heard it hear first.... when he is a senior he won't be playing for Graham. His Dad wanted the Abilene Cooper job, and he was a finalist for the SA Central job. Both pay more than Graham, no AD duties... etc... Graham is just a stepping stone right now for McCoy. I don't see McCoy coaching in 3A after this year.
That's why Kent Jackson at Sweetwater always surprises me. He has been at Sweetwater for a few years now and hasn't jumped ship yet. He has had tremendous success at Olney and Sweetwater. Why hasn't a larger school hired him away yet?

they try. He will have to get a Ring I think to get a big time 5A job unless he takes a 4a job first.

if I was hiring I would actively pursue Jackson first (because I know Sandifer isnt leaving Wylie). I also think jackson wanted one more year in Sweetwater with Green and Banyard coming back.

Jackson is one heck of a good football coach. You Sweetwater boys better circle the wagons and start passing around the hat. Collect all you can and then just leave a big wad of money in his mailbox or something.

He's the next Bob Shipley. Move to a higher classification so your son can get more exposure. Hey that brings up a thought...is it "moving for athletic purposes" if your dad is a football coach and thus you have to move if he "chooses" to take a job elsewhere? :thinking:

Man I got the up most respect for cojack, he left Olney to Sweetwater mid way through my SR yr, and when I told these Graham boys he was going to have SW ready for the playoffs, they didnt believe me.
