Drewcephus Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 I believe I'd take this year's DL over 2011's. More size and strength. 97 is a D1 player, and it'd surprise me to not see some colleges come checking on 95 as the season progresses. I would put this D-line against just about any in the state. It's a little tougher to tell as far as the backers go. 47 is a special talent much like #14 was from 2011-2013. They're an extremely talented group. The fact that this is a point for debate should have HC very excited. As far as Friday goes, I'll be interested to see this "new" version of Liberty. It'll be a great test for our secondary. I wouldn't be surprised to see them have some success initially, but you'll have to be truly balanced to consistently put points on the board against the Patriots this year. From what I've seen, I'm not that worried about the offense. The OL is ahead of last year and has some size and athleticism. Great athleticism at QB and WR. I think they'll grow with experience. And of course we have a stable of backs. I've been very impressed with the starter. He loves contact. I have a lot of respect for Liberty and hope they have a deep run when it gets cold. Just don't like their chances Friday night. Great post and I wholeheartedly agree, since we are debating 2011 v. 2015 defense - makes me very excited!!! Really ready to see some Patriot Football in a few days!!! Go Big RED!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not even close and the stats should be able to confirm. 47 is better Edited August 18, 2015 by revved1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedSwarm Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) You may be right. 14 put up some good numbers and he wasn't primarily in the Mike position during his career if I remember correctly. No doubt that #47 is just one of those players that are special. Hope he can find somewhere to play ball on Saturdays when his time here is up. He's what coaches dream of for a LB at this level.

Yanker Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 It is the YEAR OF THE YANKER.....It is the YEAR OF THE YANKER!!!!!!! This legendary YANKER is so excited about the coming season that I am early with my predictions! The YANKER hopes all is well in Henryland and you are healthy for the opener against my least favorite team! This happy YANKER is particularly pleased that the prophet (the anti-one) has disappeared from the scene (his stupidity made Henrylanders look foolish) and I am also thrilled that Team Mom has vacated the premises (Team Mom made the anti-prophet look like an absolute genius!). Now for the task at hand.........in a stunning shocker......JCM 27 - Northside 26....JCM WINS...JCM WINS!!!!!!!!!!!!! And the score that Henrylanders have awaited since this YANKER'S last post of the 2014 season.........HC 30 - Liberty 7.........I AM THE WORLD'S ONLY LIVING YANKER!!!! I AM THE "ONE OF A KIND" YANKER!!!!!!! Simply put.....I AM THE LEGENDARY YANKER.....and don't you forget it!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FactsOnly Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 We usually have to wait until Friday for any helpful information. Yanker must have turned over a new leaf with a commitment to expediousness. I have to agree though with the HC/Liberty score. DHSTennis is usually spot on but I think he has underestimated Henry County this year. In FACT, I think I had underestimated Henry County until watching a couple of the preseason matches. I certainly think the 2011 Defense was a once in a lifetime event, but I'd take my chances with this year's Defense from now on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So does this mean that we can expect your predictions on Wednesday's now? I like your thinking in this one. And I hope you are correct in your alma mater's score as well! I look forward to hearing your banter with other posters on here as well. Because there is no doubt, you are the One of a Kind Yanker!!! Go Big RED!!!

dhstennis Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Last year Bush had 189 yds against HC. I think this years D is about the same as last year - may be better at years end. So IF Liberty has a back better than the Bush kid, then HC is in trouble. HC offensive appears to have a few more playmakers, but not sure about the OL yet - although they did get alot of 6-8 yard runs against Paducah on the first 2 series. Go Big Red Bush wasnt the starter going into last season...Chris Johnson was, then ruled ineligible...all cleared up now ready to roll...not as fast as bush, but stronger We usually have to wait until Friday for any helpful information.
