I just want to see what all the hype is about on this kid, for all that i've heard i havent seen any of it, just trying to figure out if its just smoke being blown up our you kn ow what.

Well near as I can tell College scots saw enough to offer a scholarship (which aint cheap) especially since most athletic departments have special meal plans. But considering he had surgery on his thumb, which is kinda important if you are gonna catch a ball, and he is just now back to playing, maybe you'll get your opportunity to see why others think he is so good. I would say  7 catches 77 yards in the last game is a pretty good start

Don't forget he ran the offense out of the wildcat (single wing style) in the 4Q (which JB did against R'dale in the 4th)

Gameday and the Blaze reading to the Sparks is pretty cool.

Great game for Blackman - but still not a complete game. 700+ yards of offense is impressive with 500 in the 1st half alone. Penalties at critical times and turnovers are still a work in progress. Gonna be a fun ride for this team - on to Stewy now.

If Blackman can clean up their mistakes, I think they have a chance at Oakland. No one can stop those wideouts.

Blackman put up some points on Oakland last year it may be a matter of protecting the Blaze QB, and getting a few stops a dominant Oakland team...but that's a couple games away, so we gotta focus on Stewarts Creek. I don't think that is going to be as easy as some seem to think, Got to be careful and play every team with the same intensity and focus.

Stewart's Creek should be very easy for Blackman.   I'm trying to remember and not entirely sure but Stewart's Creek did have one player I was really impressed by.   #8 I think it was.  He was dangerous with the ball in his hand.  Elusive and good speed.   

The blaze will put up some points against Oakland when the time come but the Oakland offense has the ability to score often and early.   Pats qb is big and very hard to bring down.

I think you are referring to Otey... real fast kid...  Oakland will give us fits for sure , but we have to stay  focused and not let them get in our heads. Oakland is a great team, but I think a lot of times they beat teams in their own head before the game even start.
