PurplePower68 is a true fan at least. I won't be on long. I'm just here for GB feuding. Once the season starts I prob won't be on much if any.

I will just say what one sp alum told me. The uproar about the GB transfers is because this season is the pirates last best shot at a title. He said there's a 2 yr window but a dropoff after this season and a significant dropoff after next season. Also there will possibly be at least 3 coaches leaving after this season win or lose. Again... not my words but his and he is connected to the program. A few yrs ago I was told this junior class would possibly win 3 state titles. They were very good in middle school but I realize some kids wind up not playing and some don't develop like planned. Still a very good bunch and a couple additions only made them better.

A couple of things about that scenario. 1. I understand a drop off, but SP will still compete at the 1A level most years. 2. I don’t think 3 coaches will leave after this season for sure. That’s a lot of turnover if true. 2. Anyone that made that statement about 3 titles from watching the grasshoppers play isn’t thinking clearly. A lot can change from little league to middle school to high school. That is evident from last season when SP mercy ruled Marion but as the paper said last season the score was reversed when those kids were all middle school grasshoppers. I don’t put a lot of stock in little league and MS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that that's what's happening here, but it makes me admire coaches like Tyners coach and Lewis County's coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont put a lot of stock in the younguns but you usually kinda know who's gonna be a stud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
