Re the D1 schollie offers, likely it will be zero. But thats not uncommon for a DLS team. They may have a FB player who gets a baseball ride, and another one or two that get rugby offers. But thats about it.
Re returners, do understan that DLS typically has only about 14-16 "starters" because many players go both ways. With that in mind, there will prob be 7-8 starters returning, that will occupy 10-13 starting jobs.
Predicting key players is a losing proposition, cause it seems that new or unknowns rise to the top each season.
The frosh and JV teams (I think) only lost one game between them. But, this means nothing as an indicator of future performance. IE, Mater Dei won the JV games 4 straight yrs, but lost the varsity games 4 straight yrs.
No Calif rankings out yet. Probably not till the 1st of Sept.
Here is a tidbit for you. Did you know that DLS does not keep any stats, or records? You will never find things like who is the career leader in .... etc.
Any thoughts on career leaders are just speculation. There are no official records kept by the school. They dont even have any football trophies on display on campus. Only stats that you might see on TV re DLS players will be those kept by fans, or local reporters, (like Max Preps) or the local paper. I know and usually sit with three of the people keeping stats, and they are rarely in agreement. Its kinda amusing, actually.
Hope this ans your questions. pd
