I think if you would have read the Bristol paper last Saturday you would have seen that Parks gave the credit to his offensive lineman, or at least some of them. Here is the quote:

Parks credited his offensive line corps of Nathan Brickey, Jon Pope, Jake Jones, and Seth Musick.

``Those guys made my job a lot easier,'' Parks said.


You are correct on a few things but you can't lump the whole line together on this one. Some of the boys are doing a great job. Some are returning ALL District players. I think if you go back and review the film(s)in slow motion, which I have, it is quiet evident where the weaknesses are. Notice in Parks quote that he mentioned only upper classman, 2 seniors and 2 juniors. Keep in mind some of these boys are underclassman and will get better, I hope.

Something else to ponder, Jake Jones (SR) missed the first few games because of his knee, I think he has only played in two games so far. Also, Chase Lane (SR) one of the starting guards has been out for a few weeks with a knee injury. Brickey (JR) has done a yeomans job filling in. Remember Brickey hasn't played since his Freshman year. If I'm not mistaken Musick (JR) and Pope (SR) are the only lineman who haven't missed a game(s) due to injury.

I also played for Coach Fry and you are absolutely correct about the sled. We spent more time there than anywhere, at least it seemed like it at the time. We even had a sled for the backs.
