Western Kentucky Hilltoppers

Coach Procter/ The Beginning

Season Report Posted: October 07, 2010 00:13  

The Hilltoppers are without a doubt one of the worst and most struggling programs in the country. Everyone new it was time for a change and thats exactly what happened. Coach Procter has been given the head coaching job for Western Kentucky. With this change, coach Procter is going to be bringing in the spread, and a 4-2-5 defense. It is his first year but he is said to be an offensive guru."I come to this program with high hopes, says Procter. These first few years could be tough ones but we will be getting better over time. Once the players buy in to the program us coaches have, we will have some big years to come. For now, we are rebuilding, but we are still going to do everything we can to win." What he says sounds good, but dont expect much from the first year or two. They do have a star freshman quarterback, but thats about it. There is little to no experience on the defensive side of the ball. Lets hope the players buy in to the program and start off with a bang.

What To Expect

Well like we said before, there is little to expect from this young inexperienced football team. The offense is lead by the freshman quarterback while on the other side of the ball nobody has any idea of who the leader will be. "Our goal is to go to a bowl game this season. I think we have a good shot for it to. I like the boys we have in this group but were just lacking leadership. I do expect good things though from this young group of rascals" stated coach Procter. Who knows how this season will go.. Dont expect too much.

-As you can see here, the experts have predicted the Hilltoppers to win no more than three games all year. All of whom are fairly weak teams. " You just cant worry about what other people say or think about you. We have something to prove this year. We may not be the best team but were sure as hell gonna give it all we got." Stated coach Procter. Atleast there is no where to go but up.. Its just a prediction, but most know its usually pretty accurate.

Key games -
Indiana
@South Florida
@FIU
@UL Lafeyette
Middle Tennessee State

- The games listed here could really be a key factor in determining how the season ends. They say if you can win three out of your five key games, it helps out a lot in the long run on how well the team will work together. Although they are predicted to lose all the games listed, thats one of the reasons why they are considered key games. Three out of the five are conference games so we can hope to expect pretty close games there. The predicted best for this young team is a 6-6 season, which atleast would be a moral win for the players and the coaches. Lets hope the Hilltoppers can take advantage in these key games and hopefully make it into the post season.
