I said they don't belong in that company DIDN'T I? gO BACK AND RE-READ, I simply said that the YEAR AWAY GREAT DAVIDSON SENIOR CLASS that got beat by pitiful Coffman Freshman year , so that awful Sells team somehow beat the vaunted Davidson class of 2014 DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ?/
Ok I also pointed out that as JUNIORS this outstanding class couldn't move the ball against " THE BEST TEAMS THEY PLAYED{ No Olentangy doesn't count they were just OK } sO WHAT WE HAVE THAT SOMEHOW YOU MISSED IS coffman won as Frosh right ? that crappy team BEAT HD frosh ,AND LOST BY 3 POINTS SOPH YEAR IN JV GAME .
dID YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ?? UA Seniors to be beat HD Frosh this incredible class by about 45 points . UA has regressed since then givng up about 400 a game on defense agasint the better teams but whatever.
OK I also pointed out that if this Junior class is so great why couldn't they move the ball or sustain drives at all against the best teams they played ? You aren't a fan of HD and don't know the snap for snap talent , you just looked at them as a legit R-3 finalist and they MUST BE GREAT THIS YEAR BECUASE they have a lot back .
I also stated they have a lot back becuase they al got to play because the Senior class was so small , it's not that there that great but there was much less competition from Seniors than usual for palying time . DO YU UNDERSTAND THAT ?
Don't know how difficult that is , and while we are at it WEAVER has had some pitiful Middle school teams recently , is there future success written in stone ?
I never said they handled anyone in middle school , but WHAT I DID SAY WEAS THAT HILLIARD'S MIDDLE SCHOOL TEAMS AND THIER FROSH TEAM THREE YEARS AGO WERE HARDLY AWESOME THEMSELVES . You mistook the reference I was making .
never siad they belong iin rarified air at all , DID YOU READ THE POST ? REALLY ?? Didn';t I say it is a totla teardown on offense ? I agree they don't belong there , but your assertion that HD is the TEAM TO BEAT seems to based on what ? a smoke and mirrors win and a Coffman hairball that they puked up the last two week s and what exactly ? Got thrashed by 21 and 23 AGAINST Coffman and PN never really putting togehter a drive at all , 3 points agaisnt Darby , adn a narrow win vs. Beavercreek at home as Juniors and suddenly they are THE TEAM TO BEAT ?
Did they improve ? YES but are they going to just line up adn start kicking people's azzzes this year after not being able to do it last year TO ANY EXTANT ? I don't know I am sure they wil be the favorite becuae of returning starters and they wil improve as I know how hard they work in the off season and the expereince wil help a lot , but looking closely over their history this class is hardly world beaters adn I would match up Coffman's front sever on defense against this HD defensive front seven , so the disparity you speak of simply isn't accurate , i would favor HD in week 4 by a small margin based on experience of it's players and Coffman's offense being very inexperienced , and in no way should they be a top ten team NEVER SAID THAT and they won't be in any poll they did lose a ton of good players and actually making the play-offs even in a smaller pool is hardly a given and there is achance they may not make it if they don't beat everyone they should beat very small margin for error . , but as we get closer to the season it is worth noting that it mostly myth that this HD group of Seniors didn't exactly handle everyone with ease over the last 3-4 years including Coffman's Senior group as weak as everyone claims it is.
A point I made that was fairly simple was YES THEY WERE A YEAR AWAY, but the hype they are going to get is based on landing in the R-3 final , but if you look closer they didn't exactly do much against Coffman or PN in thier play-off games , They didn't move anyone off the ball consistently they had no sustained drives for TD'S in 12 overall quarters of football agains tthose two teams excpet ofr one that was aided by 30 ayrds of Personal fould penalties agaisnt Coffman when they were down 30 in garbage time . So this tells me that this group WAS A YEAR AWAY no doubt , so are they going to line up one year later and thrash everyone physically ? that was the point , they wil be better and they won't have ot face some of the same players who have graduated but from thier what seems to eb embarrassing loss to the crappy Coffman Seniors as Frosh and a 3 point win vs the terrible Coffman class the next year and a complete beat down agaisnt UA Frosh year and last year's inablity to get a pass rush and move people off the line of scrimmage against " GOOD " opponents , I question the soon to be big hype about this group , that's all pretty straighforward.
Have been by a fan that the HD Junior class is just OK a few good players no doubt but not laoded group thmeselves, Coffman's JR class isn't stacked either never said it was THEY HAD A AN EXCELLANT JV record{ Doesn';t always mean much } including a thrashing of HD . week 4 wil be interesting , Coffman wil have real trouble scoring but HD will not have a real easy time moving it either with Coffman having a few D-lineman back who played a lot as wel as having two inside backers who played a lot and started most of the year.
Yes I am in pre-season form I will grant you that , and your mistaking my references were probably my bad, and My points and factsd aside Davidson probably should be the top of the favorite list not becuase they are a potentially dominant team but more on others rebuilding a bit .
