Hoban '23

Yes some poster on here was saying his son committed to Hoban, then later changed to Glenville, probably more because location. Hoban and glenville far apart. It doesn’t take much lose 2/3 studs a year that would usually attend your school, to go to competition and the powers change. Not saying that’s Hoban right now. But with their 2 biggest competitors making a resurgence, Hoban could slip in near future. As could Ed’s . Look at St X and or Elder. Or iggy a decade ago. Doesn’t take much. (Can’t win todays games with yesterdays scores)
If the kid that you’re speaking of is who I think, I know for sure that logistics played a role, as he lives in Mentor. Neither Ginn or Hoban are particularly close, but that daily commute down here in the winter would’ve been brutal.
 
Are you referring to the Greenwood kid that played for Ginn Elite?
I’m really not sure on specifics I just recall a Hoban poster saying that the kid they thought was going to be in their freshman class was going to Glenville instead. I believe he was playing for Ginn Elite so most likely the same kid

That’s my nephew, LaMarques. He really liked Hoban and Coach T, but the distance factor was a factor.
 
Well good to hear Massillon won’t have to face him lol
They play the freshman and JV, but unfortunately not the big boys. My brother is actually a Massillonian by default, he’s been on MFD since ‘99. Not the brother who’s son we’re talking about, this one’s son’s is an unathletic genius that attends SVSM.

Massillon has a nice group of freshmen this year so that matchup should be fun
 
Final Four…I’ll go R5 Hoban, R6 Avon, R7 Massillon, R8 Winton Woods.
This is the Final Four that most people project.
So in this case would you say that Hoban plays Avon in one semifinal and Massillon plays Winton Woods in the other?

Yes. The OHSAA has never deviated from matching Avon and Hoban when each win R6 and R5. I don’t see why this season would be any different, though the only possible switch I can imagine is matching Hoban vs Massillon and Avon vs Winton Woods in the semis, but I just don’t see the OHSAA doing it.
 
I won’t count TCC and Winton Woods out, but on paper Hoban and Massillon seem to be a cut above.
LDG, are you at all familiar with Jackorion Caffey RB from Avon class of 24'. I'm a Bearcat fan and see where he committed to play football at Cincinnati. Is he legit?

TCC poster here, he had a great offensive line with him but by all means is the real deal. Good pickup for the Bearcats.

TCC!!!! I believe we had an awful good back named Michael Warren out of TCC a couple of years ago.....there are a few folks on our boards that were comparing Caffey to Warren. Similar body type, and strong as an ox based on his workout videos.
 
Apologies if this was answered in the 8 pages already, but is the Feister kid (Freshman) going to be seeing Varsity time?

Kid is unbelievable athlete and wrestler.

Even with a loaded Hoban Sr class im sure he will see plenty of varsity time. Im sure he would completely destroy any freshman football player.
 
Not much response from the Hoban posters on an earlier question I posed... Do you think Tyrell is looking to move up the coaching ladder to the college level or do you think he is a Hoban "lifer"?
