| 2006 SEASON COMES TO A CLOSE |
After 3 years of play the Greyhounds made a pit stop in mid-season. Admist controversy and turmoil several factors contributed to the decision of the Greyhounds owner to shut down operations for the 2006 season. Some people took the decision as an opportunity to beef up their support by saying the Greyhounds folded and would not return. Beeks said just like they always do these people put out information that they can't substantiate or have the true knowledge to make an informed statement; not returning was never the situation. My decision was one of a strategic measure that would allow the Greyhounds to position the organization in a situation to regroup and comeback bigger and better than before. The other teams used the Greyhounds business plan and accomplishments as a stepping stone to benefit their organization in one way or another and took every shot to shoot the Greyhounds down and never acknowledging what we done for them. It became a comparison of this team is better than that team, players jumping teams, and a decline in performance were the extenuating circumstances that guided me. " I tried to maintain the team and finish the season, but the effort was hopeless." In an attempt to save the integrity of the Greyhounds name, Beeks called it a season. So be it that the demise of the Greyhounds 2006 season became prevalent. Coach Beeks said that he has embarked on the 2007 football season with a relentless vengeance that will further set the Greyhounds above and beyond any other team in the upstate. Coach Beeks is looking forward to the upcoming season and anticipates another year of great fan participation. |
