I don't believe you'll be better next year than this year. Willard currently does not have anyone on their roster similar to Devon. We'll play a much different style of basketball.he doesn't have to be Devon. Rebound and play solid d.

I screwed that all up...but he doesn't have to Devon.rebound and play solid d.we'll play a whole different style of basketball. That's why these kids need to stay in the gym and weight room.there's high character kids on this team. They'll put the work in.

I would like to talk about what we need to have to get farther than we did this year.we MUST have someone else beside coop to shoot the three at a high percentage.ill take 40%.baldridge boy MUST put on 15 -20 lbs.MUST hit the weight room.I might get crucified for this but must change our offense a bit.id like to see Skeeter at the point and run coop of some screens to get open looks at times.he can handle the rock and be a playmaker Finally. I'd be glad to talk about what needs to happen for Willard to get further. First and foremost, learn how to play great man defense. If this team could, Coldwater might have still won, but it would have been MUCH closer. I've been trying to get you to say it, since you're an "xlegend". You almost did above. There's got to be at least 100 xWllard players that know how defense used to be played at Willard. I watched it. When Balogh first started coaching, he scrimmage Willard. He wanted his players get there butt's beat and "feel" what it was like to play against Coach Haas' defense. Why do you think Balogh's teams play defense like they do?

I saw that a sophomore from Shelby may be a potential recruit after they had a disappointing season. Does anyone know of any plans of any players moving to Willard for school next year?

Why do you think Balogh's teams play defense like they do? what planet are you from?You haven't a clue of what kind of defense coach Haas loved to play and anyone on here can back me up on this. It was a 1-2-2.the only time he went man to man is when he was behind or I seen him go box and one on the great players.you act like you know so much about willard and coach Haas but you actually don't know crap the 1-2-2 was his staples at least when I played back in the 80's.

I'm from the planet of knowledge. Back in the olden days before the 3 point line, when you played, most coaches played a zone due to not having to worry about 3 points given for outside shots made. They worried about close in shots, the closer to the basket the more they worried, thus they played zone defense. After 3-pointers changed the basketball world in the 86-87 season, when you became an (x). Most coaches went to man defenses so they could closely defend all 3-point shooters at the 3-point line.
Were all Coldwater 3-point shooters closely defended at the 3-point line?

To answer what type of players we plan on recruiting. Well that's a tough question. We need to look over the recruiting budget and see who we can afford. If need be I'm sure we can raise some more funds to fully pay for the type of player or players we need. The recruiting went dormant for a while, but I'm sure we can get back on track. We have our people everywhere. Silent but just waiting to steer the next kid over to our side of 224.

I've never been a fan of 1-3-1. Corners and elbows are the weak spots.I'd put that in the trash can if I was Joe.agree that these kids to learn hard man to man.

Syracuse uses a 2-3 match-up zone exclusively and they recruit players exclusively that fit that defense. Kentucky and Duke use a zone on occasion when it's best for them to do so. Coach K and Roy Williams are man defense coaches. Also, those three school successfully go after the best and most athletic high school players in the country every year. Even though some would argue, Willard can't do that. I don't blame the Willard coach for using a 1-3-1. I've watched this bunch, excluding Tripplet, since the 7th grade. That's is all they've played. I do not know if those coaches were given the authority to use defense they wanted or not, but I only saw them play 1-3-1. No doubt that helped win games in middle school. One thing I"m sure of, middle school coaches for top coaches in this area since the inception of the 3-point line, INSIST that their lower level coaches play nothing but man defense. Even in 3rd through 6 grade.

As it is game week and a new season is upon us, I'm just posting to see if I can turn this post with over 34,000 views over to page 28! All for a team that has gone 14-52 over the last 3 years. People in Willard love their basketball!! Good luck flashes! 16 win season this year baby. Turn the page. Not a bad prediction if you were going with regular season which we won 19.

I also feel you guys need to temper your expectations a bit. I watched willard several times this summer and i agree they have some potential but are far from being “loaded”. My guess is a 2nd or 3rd place SBC finish and knocked out at district. Biggest challenges to overcome are turnovers and team chemistry imo. crimson5, you need to temper your expectations. purefan is right, Willard isn't going to win this year.
Willard fan wins this prediction battle

Yes! We have a good team and good players and can play well, even against a team like Bucyrus. It builds confidence and helps them gel. They need a few games like this to build momentum. I think they'll play just as well this week against Carey and we continue to gain a head of steam. A wise man once said there is nothing greater than hope and once you have it, sky is the limit. I see where Parrot and Pingston played well, glad they stepped up and played like we know they can. They've earned their starting spots back. Don't order the trophies yet. There is a reason Willard wanted to down grade their schedule. I doubt the thought of momentum was a factor in that change. I would suggest we celebrate the win and leave it at that. dude throwing his 2 cents in, Willard just took home the SBC, Sectional and District Trophies. Hate on

Willard had 5 turnovers and 13 assists against bucyrus. There your 2 to 1 ratio.if you want to be a very good team that stat alone will tell you who won the game. You act like it can't be done. Obviously you haven't been around a whole lot of basketball. Keep trying though. Great post. Coldwater had 24 assists and 13 turnovers vs Willard or 2:1

Kind of but not completely. I don’t think we have a false sense of improvement we have a real sense regardless of schedule, we can look out on the court this year and clearly see we are a better team. Understood, I guess I was following the idea that "a person can be smart but people are dumb". The general idea of going from 5-17 to 13-9 makes people think that earth shattering improvements have been made. What about going to 22-4 and winning the SBC and District Title?
Willard fans are smart Willard hate club loses again

You are also ignorant about where people post AND what true hate is. Hating a town, school or high school sports team is the epitome if ignorance. I save my hate for the likes of Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein.
READ all of my posts, where I am not supposed to post and you would have noticed that I gave Willard credit for a great season. I see you have been unable to find a "hate" post of mine to copy and insult.
You also are not wise enough to comprehend the significance of Willard Fillmore.

I can pull plenty of posts of him hating on willard. He acts like he knows so much about us and coach Haas. He's pulling at strings thinking were not coherent.his ignorance is evident in his post then when you catch him up on something he back peddles to try and cover it up. I see right through him.

No one on cw took us off the dribble.I mentioned that to a friend of mine. I'm just wondering if our coaching staff told the kids they won't make then all night.we definitely gave them way to much room but don't know if it was the kids or if they were told to.I was wanting to pick them up full court after halftime.it probably wouldn't of made a difference.

that very bad Tiffin team only lost to the river league champion truckers by only 6. I think your one in ten is bs.50 50 worst case scenario for willard. Not only is your belly bigger but your eyesight is going as well. This willard team could run with them anytime...like I've said this team has 5 guys that can put 20 on you at anytime.lake champions. My bad Still think that this 2019 DISTRICT championship Willard team splits with a 1984 STATE CHAMPION Monroeville team? LOL! For the record, I don't believe that the Flashes had more than 3 guys "put 20" on anyone, all year long. To say that 5 could is hyperbole. Still an outstanding season for the Crimson Flashes. My congrats! For about 14 minutes of basketball on Wednesday night, it looked and felt like the clock had been rewound. Good luck next season.
