Prince, this is where I got confused with how D-1A scholarships work.

“D1 football team are required to offer 85 athletic scholarships (and no more per team) and there are 119 football teams at the 1A level and you can divide 85 by 4 because each coach has about 21.25 scholarships per year. In reality, Division 1 football coaches can offer and distribute no more than 25 scholarships per year, but for use of this example I will stick with 21.25 because they cannot have more than 85 players on the team under full scholarship.”

I agree about Coleman he he has a nasty side too him he hustle to the ball but from the tape I didn’t see the ability to read and react to a play what I didn’t understand was ther was no disguise blitzes or stunts!!! He was in blitzing mode, and they never adjusted or accounted for him!!! Was the coaches that bad?.... Was he that dominating!!!.....

Husky 3K, we gave Nocita some run on here. But maybe it is better to keep everything quiet and he can shock people come Fall 2011!

Prince, yeah there are some players on Coleman video. I think it was one of the inside Backers. But here is a throw back question. What happened when teams didn’t block LT,

Got to block the backside especially when the kid has a knack for creating turnovers.

But a retort to my comments, what happened when they tried to block LT, he still made plays!!

So the answer to the question, why Coaches not blocking backside with Coleman on the video? Probably a little of everything. Opposing Coaches to blame for not blocking backside. But a team like Seet Home, with the players they have, sometimes you have to pick your poison.

I would never leave Coleman unblocked. Too much of a play making Beast!

Thoughts?

I think downstate has the better defense but I believe the north has better linemen, staff and the class AA player of the year with two of his familiar weapons and because burger I think will know how too put it together!! It will be the o-line and Ashton!! That will be too much for downstate staff!!!

North 28+
Down 14+

Just
Nothing yet offenses lil out of sync

Just
Lol!!.... Yea north was terrible!!!... The talent was second rate!! Compared too the south defense!!! I figured the south had the better defensive players!! But I thought the north had better offense but after takin Ashton off the field all of them look like class c, d talent could not match south the north receivers wher the worst talent on the field drop balls, bad routes, couldn’t create separation!!... North line couldn’t handle Wayne Williams d.t. he had very good game!! Bubby manns!! Typical forced fumble and a couple good tackles!!! Goodman!!... Incredible performance!! Was snub when he got co- player of the year in class A he is a legit d1 talent!!!! All the d1 scholarship players performed the rest didn’t show up!! Syracuse should be smiling all there guys made a play or two!!! Thoughts

Prince, I didn’t catch the game. Yeah, I would have handed 15 to 20 to Woodford(#4 Rush), so that makes absolutely no sense at all that he did not get 1 touch. Did Burger forget what Woodford did to the Troy D?

I guess he treated it like youth soccer where everyonne has to feel good and play, LOL

That or South maybe just had too much talent. Two blowouts in a row for the South

Does this make Burger- Dirienzo even?

PPR,
To your point about Akron, I’m sure you know Akron is now coached by a Stepinac grad, Rob Ianello who was previously an assistant at Notre Dame. This was Ianello’s first recruiting class and there were a couple other NY players besides Goodman and Weston. This is definitely a good sign for NY players in general and local players in particular. I’ve heard several NYS players have already been offered by Akron for next year.

What a performance by Goodman! Let’s give him some credit for winning the MVP in a game with several other 1A commitments in it. Whoever doubted Goodman or Hunt’s ability to play QB in college may be re-thinking their ideas. Hunt has an excellent arm and is a superb athlete. Goodman, I think, could surprise a lot of people at the college level. I’d think it would take him a year or two to get comfortable in the Akron offense, but clearly he has the talent to play well at that level.

I cant wait to see Goodman kick some D1 a$$

Hoops, as you already know, I made the point about Akron, .

This is no knock on Goodman but from the tapes I saw I have stated several times I did not think he was a D-1A QB. Doesn’t mean he can’t play QB at the College level just means what it says..D1A IMO. No shame in it, probably toughest position to make it at. It has been reported on here that Goodman was recruited for QB so shocking the MSG announcers say he does not have a set position. Actually I am nto shocked. I also said in the article that was originally posted here that Akron Coach said one too many times for my liking that he was a great athlete.

I will happily be proven wrong when the time comes. But here is the question. If I am proven right, will some of you be man enough to give credit where it is due,

Doubt it!

But have a retort and we will see what the future brings. As previously stated I am on a Stepinac-New Ro Truce!!
