PH, held them pretty good this year very tight game.
LC will be at 70+ players again this year. Big freshman class coming in numbers wise.
They will again have a dominant OL and DL. Probably 8-9 guys fighting for playing time on both lines. But some of these guys are like wild dogs just looking to tear people apart.
Losing Rentz is huge but the guys coming up have the potential to be just as good in Kruse, Mohler, Rohrs, Barrett.
LBs will be killers again as they have been for 4-5 years. Truthfully Tiger LBs have been killers for generations now. This year, Kruse, Lawnezack, Barrett and Walker.
DBs will be hard to replace Kahle, Miller and Garber, but again the young guys coming up know what's expected of them and are chomping at the bit for their turn.
Could be some nice battles for Wr reps.
QB will be the big question. Can Krinebrink become a leader and show some swagger.

You might want to figure out a way to wedge Spanger -DL - LC in this list. 1st team DL last season.
Also Ethan Gray LC (WR/DB/KR) who is maybe the most natural athlete around but was injured last season.

Swanton will go 0-10 once again, they went with a AW name they didn't interview many people but like 11 people applied. few old HCs and Cordinators. It's sad that their program cant get any structure.

Not all AW names are good, he was the STC there, but they had OCs and DCs who applied from decent programs

The incoming Freshman class is small…maybe 13-15 kids (if they all return) but a lot of talent

Will Wauseon and Bryan be that much better this season?
Bold to think Bryan could beat LC JV.

I wonder if Swanton will ever be back.

Not for a very long time. Their community gives them 0 support, their best athletes leave for private or rival schools, they kick coaches to the curb when they’re already struggling to lure them, it’s a hot mess.

Very bold, I guess that’d be banking on maybe the 2nd largest school in the conference can have a close game against sophomores and freshmen
As ridiculous as it sounds when put that way....I'm still not totally convinced it wouldn't at least be close lol.
Bryan football is just terrible. Honestly the whole athletic department other than girls basketball lately. Kinda shocking the state a school that size is in.
Probably more like this

you forgot the 20 asterisks between Swanton and Liberty Centers' freshman team, Swanton should schedule Vanlue.
VanlueVsTheWorld
VANLUE!!!
Vanlue to the NWOAL 2026, book it.
Vanlue should go 8 man.
Considering Bryan nor Evergreen had a JV team last year they really have to reevaluate what's going on at those schools.

2 entirely different reasons.
Bryan didn’t have a JV because in a school of 200+ boys, they couldn’t get more than 30 to come out.
Evergreen has its smallest classes in the 2024, freshman, and 8th grade class. Like maybe 35-40 boys per grade. It’ll likely be a D7 team next year.
Evergreen is the third largest school in the NWOAL
LC is significantly smaller and has V, JV and Freshman
Evergreen had culture problems too

Geographical district area has absolutely nothing to do with school size. Buck said Evergreen had the 3rd largest school in the NWOAL, which is just hilariously false
