So having now played "The Best of the Best" what lessons were learned about where your team is?
Only that it's only the coaches second year and he's not afraid to play the best. Even if they're nationally ranked. The effort was there and they never quit. DF will beat most teams that way or worse. So long as he doesn't lose games he's supposed to win like Easley, Woodmont, Laurens he's on the right track.

Greenwood is doing well, but beating those teams you named is like Clemson beating SC State and UConn! Liner at Laurens made them a formidable opponent which they are no more again. When Easley lost Wyndham as a coach that also downgraded that program too!

That's my point. Greenwood lost to those teams it usually beats before the recent change. Liner is at least beating whom he should. Greenwood has never lost to Easley, Woodmont, or Laurens with Dula or Cathcart.

Almost.....

Shell Dula coached Greenwood in 1997
1997-10-10 Easley 34 Greenwood 8
1997-11-07 Laurens 42 Greenwood 14

1998 was the start of Greenwood's winning streak over these teams.
Much credit to Shell Dula and Cathcart.

97 was Dula's first year. That wasn't Dula's system that year, the kids hadn't learned his system yet and principles. Was Mike Martin's system and the worst I've ever seen our teams in my lifetime. Greenwood went 2-9 that year. No disrespect to you sir. I respect you as a poster. You've been around here a long time. Never seen it that bad. Tried to change everything. The helmets, the uniforms, the culture; and tradition. Greenwood folks were not happy with that.
