This entire thread has to be the most jumbled piece of garbage. Supposed to be about Boyd and Marion and then all the pirate junkies pirate the thread and talk about garbage. Pure garbage. You guys must live on here. And your English? Do you have a problem speaking clearly? I'm out of here.

Saw the box score and stats in out of town paper. I must admit from what I saw last year sounds like Boyd thinks they can run with the big boys again. 10 passes? Won't cut it in big game against top tier teams. Dropped passes or not could be because the receiver guys are surprised when they see a ball coming their way. The option thing Boyd runs with the running back or QB just won't work consistently against better teams with more speed. Not sure who the receiver guys are this year but that big TE/split guy would have at least 10 come his way every game. Surely they have some other decent receiver to help as well. Haven't been to a game yet this year and still pull for the Bucs, but is odd when I see the amount of rushes they have in games. Hope it is not a selfish thing and the offense opens up against the better teams. Without it Boyd will not take advantage of the weapons they have and will struggle against the better teams. My ramble foe the year.

Based on what I saw last year passing game and early don't mix at Boyd. Bland at times. What happened to #86? Did he transfer to another school where they throw it more?

nice update on kids. Find it impressive with some of the schools listed, especially the early offers. Even more impressive is the focus on grades and the doors that opens. In the long run that is what counts. Great lesson learned

Being an ex NAIA small school player years and years ago, I think the quality of athlete these days is much better than when I played. I always follow local players around the area if they continue their career. Anyone know of any upcoming Boyd seniors that are on any radars, have desire, have early offers, etc.?

My point exactly. Just because Boyd could run and smash in years past does not mean they need to do it all the time. Times changes, players change, etc. Who cares what Boyd did over the years? A good coach and program will adjust to the type players they have, regardless. Boyd has a good passing team. Why not use it? Because they have not in the past? Makes no sense to me. As Sqatch says, use the passing game to it's advantage, and the defense will never know what is coming at them. From the few games I saw last year, any subpar coach could figure out what Boyd was going to do on offense. Without the dominate line, smashmouth running the football just will not work. Perplexes me why if you have the athletes to have a dominate passing game, why it would not be used. I'm old and grey, but you guys sound even more old school than me!

How does the Boyd passing game look? The primary receiver guy from last year is gone, correct? Boyd looking to use #86 more instead of a last option this year? That guy is dangerous when he gets the ball... big and fast... Any other receiver guys stepping up? Boyd has good QB that can throw it around, and would be shame if they don't use the right concepts for the individuals they have. I know Boyd has historically been a smash mouth type football team, but I did not see any big type lineman that can move people around when the defense knows you are going to run every play.

The comment about 'threating a Senior?".... Not sure what difference being a Freshman or Senior makes in context of that statement...Maybe I missed the point.. Just saying.

Ok, maybe just a stuid question being new to this board, but South Pitt went to the state finals last year, correct? Was all this stuff this entire thread talks about identified last year, or was it ok because SP had a successful year? Is this entire conversation only because SP had younger, or less talent available this one year than previous years? Just odd how a team can make the State finals one year and everything is hunky dory, and then the next year SP 'preceived controllers' are ready to run their coach out of town. Odd.

What has Boyd got to do with this? No one person could have stopped a 41-0 blowout against a totally inferior team. Geeesh

Refs just bad overall. Buc play calling after first drive was horrible. Passing when they should be running. Running when they should be passing. Looked totally out of sync against a totally inferior defense. That's the sad part. What happened to 5 and 86 in second half on offense? Both where tremendous weapons that got overlooked. 10 went to 21 too much, who was having a rough night.Boyd wins this game 8 out of 10 times. Tonight was one of the 2 they lose. Congrats Rockwood, but Boyd better overall athletes and just had an off night.
