From watching on YouTube, he has a pretty good arm. A good mix of run and pass. Not much of a hurry up, they don’t huddle much though

Thanks! I didn’t know you could watch their film on you tube. I’ll have to check it out

Good Luck to Coach Brunetti and the Pearl-Cohn Firebirds this week.  This will be the 9th time he’s coached in a State Semifinal Game since taking over at Pearl-Cohn.

That is a remarkable feat!

Pearl Cohn is more battle tested than Haywood. By far, they have played a tougher schedule than Haywood. Similar to Haywood, they can score. If this game were to be in Nashville, I would lean with the Firebirds. This could be the first time Haywood has faced any sort of adversity. Curious: has Haywood trailed at any point of the season? 

I'm not a believer in "playing tough games in August can prepare you for November." Why? because late August was 3 months ago, and a lot can change in between those that time. I don't think PC will be scared or timid. I respect the heck out of this Pearl Cohn program. I'm leaning with the Tomcats, but Pearl Cohn needs to strike first. I do believe that's the key. I won't be shocked if there is 65 points combined in this game.

Sorry bud! Not taking the rat poison! It’s gonna be a good game. Whoever wins the Haywood/PC game AC better beware is all I have to say!

Haywood played six teams which made it to the quarterfinals, including Covington who is in the semifinals. They played Bartlett and Henry County in the preseason. And no, they have not trailed a single second this season. But they are battle tested with two semis and one final from this senior group. I get your point, but this team is just different than those in the past. Pearl Cohn is a great team, but I'm leaning Haywood by 10 with weather and the home field a big factor.
