I am interested to see the Eagle defense defend the pass. McKinley was finding some success with short middle of the field passes and Moeller got back into our game with them doing that.

The Eagle defense has been a strong element in recent weeks. I think the offense will continue to work on things with their quarterback but it was pretty windy last week and he made some ok throws, I felt Mason did a great job of looking back and making a play on balls that were caught up in...

I thought St. Ed's had an efficient win on Friday. Great reps for Csyani and a lot of playing time for back ups in general. Hopefully we see more of the same this Friday. I don't know much about Glenoak but every week will get harder and the Eagles will need to be ready. It looks like the...

Agreed. Making that 7th division helped the lower divisions out but screwed Division 1. It also has to be said that the state of football programs at some of these big public schools have gotten pretty bad. I know the drum will beat about recruiting but schools the size of Elyria, Euclid, or...

I would think the difficulty with addressing it is that it's just extremely difficult to stop. It requires a ton of discipline with regards to your linebackers and d-lineman and many teens will over pursue on plays that they feel they've correctly identified. I think a big difference are...

I think it is hard to fault either side in this without the details of what is going on. Euclid last week obviously felt it could not control the crowd. Does that mean outsiders coming in? Does that mean adults? Does that mean their students? I read somewhere that they've taken a lot of...

I agree with this completely. The school is one of the largest boys schools in the state with talent seemingly in all their other athletic programs. The football problem is a program problem. Great weight room, a fieldhouse right? plenty of athletic fields, with more plans to add onto their...

Depending on how the playoffs end up, the series could be tied this year. For fun, Ed's won 8 straight games against the Cats in the 70s. Ignatius' longest unbeaten streak against the Eagles is 4. Eagles are at 7 now and look to be in prime position to continue that.

Ed's lost to McDowell 23-20 that year.

I think you have to issue a statement to protect yourself. A few years ago Ohio State forced Gordon Gee out for making jokes about Catholics. Upset donors or families aren’t worth it. They took a good step in my opinion.

A few come to mind: 1973 14-13 Ed's. Flea flicker on the 2nd play of the game for an Eagle touchdown. Wildcats driving late in the game when they are stopped on 4th and short, extremely close call. Ed's went undefeated with a 20-20 tie to Benedictine. 1986: 14-5 Ignatius. Ed's would go...

Good assessment. Cysani (sp.?) can throw the ball well enough. It is one thing to come in in the heat of the game with a simplified game plan with less than 2 minutes and its quite another to have to prepare all week and know that you are the guy. I think he will be fine. He made some nice...

Massillon played a strong game that exposed Ed's in some key ways. I thought the crowd was good and really showed Massillon at its best. I would love to have the Tigers come back to Lakewood in all fairness but trips to Massillon have always been fun and I think it is a good experience for the...

WGH ran over a pretty good Ed's team 42-26 in the playoffs. Clarett's 2nd quarter was like 3 runs over 70+ and Ed's never really got back in the game after that. Ignatius beat them the next week 40-33. Clarett still had a great game but Ignatius' defense came up big in the 2nd half. I...

Ed's escapes with a win, although not unscathed. I hope Bullock is alright. Csyani came into a difficult situation and was lights out though, ran and threw well when the team needed it. Slaper's kick return was huge. Defensively, Elder made us work as they always do. It seemed like they...

Great game! The Eagles were definitely on the ropes and coming out of the Pit with a win is always a great accomplishment. Too many mistakes by Ed's almost cost them that though. Both teams will be stronger for this game, Elder's qb was a nightmare to bring down and that offense is...

Eagles looked good again against a tricky opponent. Rock Creek seems to have the speed but not the size and it only took them a couple of plays to show that off. Their receivers were good and I thought their quarterback made some good throws over the middle. The game really was never in doubt...

I'd notice the band missing (and do when they are not there) more than I noticed the cheerleading. Honestly, the kids at the games seem to be loud and cheering without the cheerleaders. I think if we had more male cheerleaders over the past 30 years you could make the argument that the school...

I didn't notice

Great win! 2nd half was something special. The big drive to start things off set the tone. I was pretty worried that we had met our match after the first half as I thought it was a matter of time until their running back wore down our defense (and they were close in the first half!) and broke...
