What does everyone think? I think it should be our goal in every sport. What does it take to get to that level? Can Lincoln get there? I believe it takes a special combination all aspects of the game coming together in the same year. I truly believe Lincoln has had years in the past where they were better than the eventual state champion in their respected class, but one of the aspects fell apart. For example, Bell County won the 3A state championship in 1991, and Lincoln County smashed them in scrimmages at camp that same year. So does that make Lincoln County the State Champion, no, because they didn't put the whole year together. One of the wheels fell off that kept them from making it.
Here are my thoughts on what it takes to make it: 1. Talent, you have to have it. 2. Great coaching, talent won't matter if it's not focused. 3. Discipline, have to stay focused on and off the field throughout the year. 4. Committment, from all parties involved. 5. Easy path in the playoffs, this matters because two top notch teams could beat each other up before you get to them, you only have to battle one. 6. Leadership, someone has to step up and carry the torch. 7. Heart and Desire, without a doubt, uncontrollable and most neccessary, it must come from within.
