Lakota East football update
Lakota East High’s football team is 14-26 over the last four seasons. Veteran coach Greg Bailie vows the Thunderhawks will be back in the upper echelon of the GMC.
“One thing to remember is we’ve been there before and we’ll be back there again,” Bailie said. “A mistake would be to do all kinds of drastic things — change the offense, change the defense. … I have confidence we can do it. I think we’ve got good players coming. It’s a matter of redirecting some of our focus a little bit and how we approach things. After every season, we reevaluate everything from the practice schedule to everything else. We’ll continue to do that.”
At this point, Bailie does not foresee any changes to the coaching staff. Does he have another year in him?
“I hope so,” Bailie said. “There’s a mindset in education that after 30 (years), you’re supposed to go. I don’t have interest in pottery. Golf makes me mad. I hate yardwork. I still get after it on the field good. I still run. I like studying film and getting ready for the season. Those are things I have to do. I don’t get tired of those things.”
Bailie said senior TE Cory Keebler (6-6, 225) is attracting interest from MAC schools.
