Madison County shut out at North Oconee

Let's face it, Madison County is not, never has been and never will be a football power. I have watched kids start at the recreation park and go through the whole program through high school. Somewhere down that route things have got to change to make it better. It may be with the daddys trying to coach and failing. Not because they want to, but because they know no better and are a product of the same loser program they themselves went through. A less kind soul might say it is the ignorant leading the innocent.
We have to ask why? If we can produce winning basketball programs and winning softball and baseball programs, then why can't we produce an even mediocre football team?
This is not meant to be a slam of the team or even of the program, but rather (I hope) a discussion of what is wrong - minus all the hot tempers and the "I went through this program and we did all right" comments.
My grandfather once told me, "even a blind hog finds an acorn every once in a while". Yep we have had an occasional winnint season over the years, but those are flukes - few and far between.
What is the answer? I think part of it is attitude. The team goes into a season with an attitude of wanting to win, but after the first loss the winning attitude turns into an expects to lose demeanor and attitude.
Perhaps it is even deeper and the whole program at the rec dept needs to be scrapped and a new one started.
I have no answers, only comments and questions. I do know that what we have now is not working.
