I agree with this. Yes it was 14-7 when Snow went out, but Snow doesn't play defense. Our defensive coaching continues to suck.St Eds was so fast on defense. They closed so well on every blitz, every pass breakup, and every tackle. That was a huge difference in this game. Snow’s injury and the offensive line is maybe the difference between the team having 7 versus 21 in this game.
But the biggest issue is that Mentor’s defense looked like the 2012 defense…but without the 2012 Trubisky offense to bail them out. Mentor has played more versatile and more talented offenses from the Eagles. But the Mentor defense and coaching staff made this version of Eds look like world beaters on offense.
Snow playing probably makes this a 2 or 3 score loss instead of 40 points. But eds and medina are the top dogs in region 1 by far. Ignatius improving as the year goes on is the main threat to that. Our coaching staff doesn't know about defensive improvement
