Gaffney is solid no doubt but I don't think we tried hard. I hate to say it but the effort wasn't there from the coaches on down. I've seen way worse greenwood teams give better effort than this eagle team did tonight. That's extremely disappointing. I will say the defense played well in spite of the circumstances. Offense and special teams for gwood gave up 11 points. 2 safeties by the offense and a kick return given up by special teams. Held to negative yardage on offense. Pathetic. Absolutely UNACCEPTABLE! Just damn unacceptable. There's no other way to say it. Greenwood has the ability to play better than that. But we choose to give THAT kind of effort................

Sounds like my Bobcats tonight!!!
Got their assets handed to the tonight!!! NO EFFORT from what i here!!

We just weren't there mentally. Offensive line has to do better. Gaffney's defensive line pretty much blew up every run play. Gaffney has a solid defense make no mistake but we can play better than that. If the bad news bears had a football team, that's what we looked like tonight. The offense just looked nervous. First time in front of a big crowd maybe. I don't know. Bunch of dropped snaps. Not sure if it's on the center or the QBs that were used but it looked like the timing was off. No excuses though. We'll learn from this and get better.

From what I heard...42 plays for -56 yards. Hard to believe that coming from a Dan Pippin coached team.

Gaffney is a great team and that’s a tough first game for anyone. I’m sure Greenwood will bounce back.

We can only hope they get better...

Yeah that mostly came from loss of yards due to bad shotgun snaps and the qb just falling on them 10 yards behind the line. Those add up to say the least lol. Or subtract I should say.

Yeah, those do add up. Just like our long snaps that all hit the ground tonight, which resulted in lost points and several short fields for Hartsville.

Hey man!

I gotta offer my apologies. I’d scheduled to come to the Greenwood game tonight but didn’t remember till it was too late. I’ll reschedule. Working in charlotte now. Maybe I can make a GW game up that way.

Hope you are well. Sorry bout the Eagles. Man a lot of big teams fell tonight. Sounds like a Good Friday for the Cavs to have taken a week off.

They weren't put in position to win and I felt the coach threw in the towel at the start of the 4th quarter. Completely abandoned the passing game and ran run plays that were getting blown up. When you're down and running out of time, it makes no sense to call conservative plays like that. This definitely wasn't their best effort calling offensive plays. At least I hope not. Coach has to get a championship mentality and not just a winning season mentality. Kudos to the defense though. Played lights out.

Our starting Center did not play this week either.
