Hard to gauge at the moment but Its about what I expected so far, All in all not overly excited about the general feel of the program. This young team will be a work in progress for a while. It is not just a youth and experience thing it is a physical/ size development thing. They are just not as mature as some other teams are gonna be this year. I may be completely wrong, but I think a .500 season would be a stretch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just feel like they have to get tougher and have some edge. Those kids are way too nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those kids are way too nice That has been an issue for way too long...I have said you have to go back 7-8 years to find a team that had some DAWGS. 9Kids that would load up and lay a slobberknocker on you every chance they got. Kids that had real grit and passion. They have had plenty of talent over the years but you gotta go back to Shadowens days at the helm to really find that edgieness.

They have some pieces on both sides just have to have the right blend. But they do need to get more physical Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will probably lose to both Ravenwood and Brentwood, but they are the only non-region games I see them losing. Riverdale is probably the favorite to be 2nd from what I am hearing, but Blackman should beat Rockvale and siegel so that puts them about 6-4.
