Burg threw the kid on field as a freshman b/c they was worried he’d transfer to Ironton if not. Ironically, he ends up transferring there anyways. Lesson in there.*
He’s not the only freshman we have rushed up, and the results have not been good. We’ve lost good upper class boys who have gotten frustrated by these freshmen being moved up so quickly, and we’ve watched these freshmen not get developed the way they should have been.
Time to go back to when no freshmen played or even dressed varsity. Let the kids mature and develop. The program will be better for doing so.
