I would still have to favor Hoban. Avon replaces the QB and other key players, but they always do. They are a reload program at this point. The new starters will be a little green, but extremely talented. There is a belief that state championship talent is on hand for the next few seasons. All that being said, it’s still a closed enrollment public, so you get who you get and develop them.
I would think the usual players are in good shape. Hoban, Massillon, Toledo CC, Winton Woods, LaSalle. There will be others. Anthony Wayne, Olentangy. Maybe Painesville Riverside? I would love to hear from folks in all four regions as to who looks strong in their areas.
