The General is my favorite poster here BY FAR.  People don't like him cos he TRULY be tellin it like it is.  But I learn from EVERY.   SINGLE.  ONE.  Of his posts.  We are ALL better off for having been in his presence.   I even spellchecked this.  HES WORTH IT. 

Thanks for reading.

I believe the west has won 8 out of the last 9 trips in 2A. 
 

 

If you're counting the cheating thugs of Trez in that...just don't.  Marion should've been state Champs in 15 and 16.  And every single poster here knows it.

Very good assessment especially not ever seeing them in person. Their Dline is very good. I don’t have anything against ER obviously they are a good team or they wouldn’t be playing Saturday but I’m curious if they can hold their composure. The film I seen lots of mouthing going on.
 

I can’t wait! Good luck to you and your team. Y’all are going to need it 

ER last 3 games have been dominating wins against Marion, Smith, and York.  The latter of those the entire opponent's raison d etre was trying to snap a kids leg in half. They have grown up.  

One thing in Panthers' favor...they were here last year.  But Indians will have best player. 

Which team is faster.  Which team is tougher in trenches. That will be huge. 

Coaching..I'll give it to Riverside. 

Players win games.  I'm betting on Groves.  It's the best and easiest argument for ER winning.

I disagree. Been through this argument many times. I believe Waverly would have beat Marion in 16.

I don’t think the Key for ER to win will be in the trenches or running the ball it will be getting the ball to #2 and not getting down early.

16 team was built around their defense. But yes that was his sophomore year.

Thomas is a hard nosed solid ball players, really great linebacker and is strong as an ox. Best ball player is gonna be in maroon though.

Feel as if Zack Groves doesn’t get enough recognition. He will be just as much of a game changer as his brother Isaiah. Take either one of them off the team and they aren’t in this position.
