I'll counter this and say that Dalton's skill is ... OK. Tough kids who play hard, but they don't look to be any different than anyone else in the region/area.
I'd agree. IMO, the 2021 Bulldogs had better skill. This year's line seems to be very, very good.
I'm sure the kids remember that game. Dial respects Cline so I doubt you'll see him ring em. Will Dalton be able to stop the option this year? They couldn't last year will this be any different?
Come on, Bob. Of course Dalton will stop the option. After all, they're Dalton. Hillsdale is no match. Dalton has already been crowned.
Sammy & Siders vs Schlabach & Malone is splitting hairs to me. The latter is way more skilled but both can get it done & both can (or were) be stopped.
Come on, Bob. Of course Dalton will stop the option. After all, they're Dalton. Hillsdale is no match. Dalton has already been crowned.
Yeah. Should have been only talking about JFK
Contenders for THIS season, homie.
The bolded schools also haven’t had the misfortune of playing the Evil Empire in their region, whereas Danville has.
Oops. My bad. Lol
I ain’t kidding. Danville was one rejected Ft. Loramie 2-point conversion in 2021 from possibly making the regional final as a 16 seed.
Lucas played the evil empire in the 2020 regional final. Ugh.
Kennedy? They’re the only one to beat the Evil Empire.
I am trying to remain as optimistic as they come, but taking Sebring's spot on so many schedules was a mistake... I give Coach Bohren all the credit in the world for what he did with the program, but it was and is not ready to be thrown back to the wolves. Don't take me the wrong way, as an alum, I love and I support Mathews football, but I won't turn a blind eye to reality and the truth. I am also happy that Mathews did not accept that invitation they had to join the MVAC. I feel kind of like a hypocrite, when Mathews left the ICL for the now defunct East Suburban Conference and now the Northeastern Athletic Conference I was one of the biggest mouths against it, and how 20 odd years has changed my perspective on things. I still hate running all over Eastern Ohio and West Virginia for games, I would much rather stay close to home, play local small schools. I remember the whippings we got in the ICL, but I miss everything that came with it, the gates were massive, big marching bands, packed stands, great football teams. Will just have to wait and see how this year ends up and recorded....
Looks like the Mustangs are looking at 3-7 very tough schedule, Bohren is a legend in the area but that is his M.O. not to stay in any place too long and get out when the schedule is brutal.
I get it now.
It wasn’t meant as a slight to Mathews either, Bohren took a program with one foot in the grave, playing 8-man and brought them winning records (albeit against one of the worst schedules in the state). But the poster making claims that the mustangs would be better than McDonald and Lowellville and talk of reaching the heights of Dalton and Springfield was what triggered the callback.
For their standards I guess? It’s ranked 53 out of 110 on F50 for D7
Exactly what they’re used to playing
I guess it’s not a same season, home & home w/ St. Urbans…Mathews had a few young athletes the last few years. Who is coaching them? Have they called Dom?
You played another evil empire before them too. We're just public though
I didn't think it was a slight..... I do and have respected your thoughts and opinions on here. You speak the truth, and your not wearing purple hazed glasses. I've been to the last two games versus Ravenna Southeast & Newton Falls... If their heads are in the game they have a decent defense for a small school, against other schools like them, but their offense is extremely limited. Bohren had a lot more options last year it seems, then what is happening on the field this year. I will keep watching and supporting, will see how much is left playing the gauntlet, still with Lowellville, Springfield, and Mineral Ridge to come....
