A few thoughts with no inside info. Might the Cats Have a QB that didn't play football last year? Is it time to let Ron Gray coach the OL? As with every year, EJ Bush is talking about playing football. New uniforms are sweet. Kids will have to sell a lot of cookies.

 

Clark's shoulder bothered him most of the year. Imagine if not.

 

Gotta have something to talk about in the off-season

NO NO NO

I love the new white uniforms but the dark gray don't float my boat as much but I won't complain.

I would love to know how to buy cookies over the internet or at the Secret City Festival..

Willie, if you know anyone who has a son on the team, such as Nole, just get into contact with them, or the Booster Club I would assume.

Not necessarily the case, a lot of times it's the older generation fronting the bill. Not all QB Clubs have cookie sales.

You may be right but I'll put it this way.....the older folks who don't like them shouldn't have a voice that matters. I would hope the coach can sell the new unis to whoever is going to be footing the bill. And I'll bet since the pictures have been released that the coach already has done that.

As long as they get the cardinal color right, I like the new unis. This years team was still wearing the uniforms that Blade ordered. The red pants are not the right color, they don't even match the jerseys. New unis waayyy overdue. Pleas, just get the colors right!

 

Nike will pay a percentage of the cost for each uni. I doubt they will be able to replace both home and away pants, home and away jerseys in one year, may have to get one set this season and the other set next.

Gallatin got new grey uni's last year and the sentiment was the same. The younger people liked them and the traditionalist older people hated them. I personally don't mind them if they are used sparingly and not every game. The older people generally do have a say somewhat when the major supporters are the ones footing the bill. If I am a major contributor, then yeah I want a day in it. So it goes both ways. In a few years it won't matter if they stay with them or not.

AMEN. The pants we have had are more of a maroon/dark purpleish color. Didn't like them when they came out, and still don't. CARDINAL!!!! Geez.

    • Who’s going to lead the pirates offense this year?
    • Pickett is good, may have a Mr. Football like season if he’s used correctly. One of the best teams Marion has fielded in a while. I think they go 12-1 and loose to ER.  ER has better players at almost every position. If they play discipline this year, they win soundly. If they don’t though…Marion could sneak away with it.
    • I’m betting the house on the Indians. Pickett and Co will be the only team to challenge the Indians in the East. Huntingdon can in the West. I think Brooks goes 15-0 and has the first perfect season and state championship in ER history.
    • Sounds like a great opportunity has opened up for the football team.  With the head coach of the diamond rebels making it official and quitting this week, there should be some room for the gridiron guys to benefit. I assume the administration won’t continue paying six figures to two former coach that quit to continue teaching drivers Ed. Thats pretty good money that could be redirected toward the football program. Also, with the more recent policies of pushing kids to only play one sport, abolishing the baseball program altogether would help on Friday nights in the fall. There is some decent speed on that baseball team that should’ve been playing on Fridays IMO. I’m not sure if anybody would really miss that baseball program anyway with it being across town from the school. The liability of letting players actually use the facilities could also be mitigated with closing the program. That liability seems to be a really big issue for 825. Anyway, it seems like a great opportunity is available.
    • Yeah, I read about their spring blue/gray scrimmage after I typed that.   Sounds like a real mess over there.  I just hate that for 'em.  Haw
