It’s close, but I’d probably give a sight edge to LSX.
Trinity is going to be 0-7 after they play Cincy X. That’s wild to think about. Have to wonder if the first yr coach is already on the hot seat.
Yep. That's why I mentioned that I dislike the transitive property.
It's nuts. That's the risk you take when you play a schedule like they (and our GCL teams) play. You get a young or not-as-good roster and you're in trouble.
There’s no way Elder puts up 49 points, absolutely zero chance.
Is the Elder O line that bad? Because Moe’s D is not exactly their strength. They’ve given up lots of yards, over 300+ per game average.
It’s pretty bad.
Not as dominating as recent past but still a well above average O-line. They've played some of the best defensive fronts in the region this year. There is far more pressure on this line than past few years for a variety of reasons. So it It's easy to blame line because at first glance you see the pressure in the passing game and it's automatically gonna be "O-line is killing us".
If they were above avg they would’ve at least been able to protect Hambleton a little in those games. Instead, he’s been getting killed all. They’re not only undersized, they constantly miss assignments that lead to wide open shots on Hambleton. I don’t like being this blunt, but you’re either not paying attention or you’re lying.
If only there were a trade market for "fans"...
I’m trying to be as respectful as I can be. I know everyone involved is doing their best, but this is just the reality. Things will be much better next year, but this yr is going to continue to be a major struggle. Height, weight, strength are all critically important in the trenches. You can only mask so much with technique. De LaSalle can get away with having small OL bc they run that Veer Offense. When you’re a spread offense like Elder, you need your OL to have size.
Where the Non Feeder O Line talent on the Westside Pboy? Come on, Everyone on here knows that you have the answers ?
They typically can fill out an OL with Feeder kids. However, there’s 2 Sophs OL (Schorsch & Weidner) who should start next yr from OH middle schools. Weidner actually played a little on Varsity last week. The OL is going to improve a ton by next year. It should be a strength of the team if the right kids put in the work in the offseason.
There are other ways to kickoff than endzone or out of bounds. They could squib it, they could pop it up short (25-30 yard line). Or you know just do your job on special teams and make sure they don't get a big return. You're trying to say don't give them better field position, but kicking it out of bounds, thus gives them better field position. Makes sense.
How’d doing their job on kickoffs go last week? Squibbing it gives them almost the exact same FP as kicking it OOB. Whatever they do, just don’t kick it to either of Moe’s return men.
It’s not one player, the entire cvg team can’t stay in their lanes.
