My good friend and yours EG is requiring written reports on both. I suspect one will really be good and the other rebuilding. Due to a family event out of town I will not be at the MJ game but will be there for Blackman. Will talk to an assistant coach late this Friday night and get his take. MJ is charging admission so Commando fans be sure to take your money. We have 2 starters dinged up that won’t play against MJ but should play against Blackman. 

I know most folks are writing Blackman off as a team that is rebuilding and will struggle most of the year. I believe that there are some solid position coaches and the team will be very well conditioned. For sure better than they have been in years past. They will be playing very fast up tempo and taking more shots down the field than ever before. This will not be 70 run plays and 10 passing plays that we have fielded in the past 5 years. I think there will be a few folks surprised. Anxious to see what this all brings.

William Blount (Not sure of times, I am guessing around 5:30)

Friday 7/30 - Cherokee @ WB

Friday 8/6 - WB @ Bearden

I expect the Cherokee scrimmage would be a good one to get a feel for how the changes will look on O and D.

Bearden will be a great test against a 6A opponent to really see where we stand and what needs work.

Does he do it exactly like Pulaski Academy? If so, you will only punt about once every 2.25 years. It should be interesting to watch.

Not exactly. But he does do some odd formations and uses analytics that determine down distance and probabilities . He may go for it 50% or more . Depending on how good the kicker is they may punt. Its pretty sharp way of doing it, if the players execute properly. Kinda like playing the odds in Vegas
