  1. He was out of bounds. But seriously, nice catch. I was trying to see who was guarding him but can't even get close to making the number out. Also, if I didn;t know any better I'd guess that was Chapman running that out.
  2. Fair enough. Maybe semantics, but I'm only counting six who would've been upperclassman last season. Suggs, Field, Floyd, Brimage, Brimage, Callaway. I'm sure not all of them will be impactful, some probably busts. Maybe its worth taking on a guy or two who might not really be worth it to build some goodwill with an up and coming program. Time will tell.
  3. I don't necessarily disagree. Jones graduated in 2011. Some other big named guys off of the top of my head the past few years were Erick Smith and Marshon Lattimore (you may have heard of him). Point is you don't need to be on some state powerhouse to put out some good players, which is what was originally questioned. None of the East players have even had a chance to step on the field yet, let alone let their collegiate career play out. Most of us are also aware of the resurrection of East football as Cap'n pointed out. Seems premature to judge any of this, unless you just don't like the recruit(s) based on their tape which is fine I guess, but Callaway had an offer from Toledo, Suggs had a a handful of D1 offers, the DB Brimage currently on the team seems to have a lot of interest as does Floyd. Other schools besides us are obviously taking notice.
  4. So while second highest, we are really right there with OU, Toledo, and Miami. Cinci is the real outlier.
  5. 2016 - Lost to Anthony Wayne (whoever the hell that is) in the first round of the playoffs. 2015 - Smoked by Perrysburg in the regional finals. 2014 - Smoked by Willoughby South in the first round. 2013 - Lost to Loveland in the state championship 2012 - No playoff bid 2011 - No playoff bid 2010 - Lost by 3 scores to St. Eds Had to go clear back to 2010 to find a playoff loss to St. Eds or Iggy. They've hardly faired any better since dropping to D-2. None of those other schools are anything close to D-1 factories. Whatever fits your narrative though. Marlington, New Phila, and since we are on the topic of Tusc. County, Dover are all pretty damn fine programs for their size.
  6. So is the limited film of him on defense from his sophomore year or did he get spot duty on the DL last season?
  7. Doesn't mean anything to me. How many championships has Glenville ever won with all that talent?
  8. They won the city series last year and beat the #1 seed in the playoffs.I wouldn't call them a top program in the state but they are certainly not bad.
  9. It did work...I don't agree with not gimmicky, however. I guess it really doesn't matter though as long as the job gets done.
  10. Hoping we won't need any of that gimmicky stuff if we can keep Keyondre/once he is here
  11. Damn that is a big boy. He stuck out on offense when I was watching Floyd's tape. He seems to move fine for a guy his size. Put on some muscle and put him at NT and all you really need him to do is plug up the line and hold his ground.
  12. Informative. Please share the others if you see them. Would like to see the new guys in charge try to expand use of the Info.
  13. Don't think I've read read a better Zips preview, even without the Warren Ball mention. I don't know what a majority of those advanced stats are, but am not surprised that we look to be close to dead last on some things I can guess, like rushing stuff rate on offense and rushing stuff rate, adj. sack rate, and general efficiency on defense.
  14. Gotta turn this one off. Going to be the largest loss of the season.
  15. Goofy scrawny center is really getting under our players' skin...
  16. Coach rode TDM for way too long there. This one is over.
  17. They are a step faster than us at every single position.
  18. Our offense is even worse with TDM running it.
  19. You mean Robo got another layup blocked...shocked.
  20. We need to get our crap together but not all of those travel calls were legit. UTA player also just took 3 steps across the lane on that layup and nothing was called.
  21. We have damn near 4 travels already. INEXCUSABLE
  22. Obviously this can change some, but I looked at 247's top Ohio prospects and it seems to be a down year in the Akron/Canton area. The only one I saw in the top 53 was Nate Bauer out of Hoban, and he came in at 44. http://247sports.com/Season/2018-Football/CompositeRecruitRankings?InstitutionGroup=HighSchool&State=OH
  23. The offer list is quite large and all of them certainly aren't listed on here. As of today we are aware of 3 commits for the class of 2018. Keyondre White, 3 Star RB from FL. 247 link Hudl link Devanier Floyd, RB from Akron East. Hudl Ronald Beasley, assuming recruited as an OL, from FL. Hudl
  24. I can't keep up with all these East guys...Is this the one you were saying you think is better than Suggs?
  25. 2017 Spring Prospectus Lots of mistakes in there......and I'm not sure I'd take some of that depth chart seriously, but I figured I'd share. I'm assuming at least the players not participating in spring ball is factual. I bet you all can guess one of the players. Hint: He's a popular topic of discussion on here about being under utilized.
