maybe a poor choice of words on the generalization. But you did lose and I think if the game set up that way you would be at a disadvantage. I have a lot of respect for this year's SJR team and do believe you are the only team than can beat us. However, I've always been a believer that the coaches put the teams on paper and if you think your the underdog you side it down & no one is better at doing that than Auggie. His teams always played hard nosed disciplined football. Win the trenches & win the turnover battle. I think that will be the game plan. Solid D, create a few turnovers & ground & pound. It wasn't meant to be an insult.

I wasn't making a point. I was just taking the opportunity to update everyone.

FYI. The kid that Bergen got from Rumson on Dline is supposedly the real deal. They feel like they got a good one there. Also, 4 frosh will be seeing real time on the varsity, especially 2 on the Dline who are expected to be special. BC's D will be the strength of the team once again.

Yes he is being very aggressive especially on the defensive side of the ball. His game plan is simple and for him it is age old. Play stout defense, run the hell out of the ball with Forester and win a close low scoring & if necessary ugly game. Joe's doesn't have the talent to get into a high scoring game with Bergen. Tough D & a few turnovers and he believes he can pull the upset.

Auggie has been busy. He is attempting to close the talent gap with BC. He has been somewhat successful.

Calhoun transferred from Donovan Catholic to BC

Exactly. If we by any chance keep that game to 17 points it’s a win for us. Massillon is the game I would really like to win.

yeah I know but it is still a good game for us. I like the fact we are staying true to our philosophy and not backing down. After being humiliated last year by Chaminade it would be real easy to back off & we didn't. If we start the season 0-2 by losing to 2 top 20 teams then so be it. Our kids learned a lot from last years blowout in Florida as we did in 2017 by getting beat by Mater Dei. Both years we came back and ran the table & won the State.

They will be a very good team with a lot of studs but depth will be an issue. I personally think they are to high & should be closer to where they usually are between 18 and 25. They can't hang with IMG but Massillon should be the real test.

ok here is the scoop, which you probably figured already. The kid thinks he's better than he is and from what I'm told he was a colossal pain in the ass. He played more than he should of because of who he is and they finally told him what was in store for him this year. My source claims that we lost a good kid last year (Shane Hanlon) to Northern Highlands because of him & Perrotti almost left. No one is crying over this departure.

lol who knows. The kid isn't good enough to play for his uncle I guess. Parents nowadays! Everyone hates the NJSIAA so I guess you sue.

The big stumbling block was money. DV was offering $12,000 & it would cost roughly $130,000. IMG coming to NJ was a no brainer.

I'll take your word for it

interesting..I was told by my source that he was glad they are playing IMG & not Duncanville. There was a lot of respect for the physicality of the Texas teams and he was worried about injuries to start the season. He said they feel they can hang with IMG. The belief was a Duncanville game could have had similarities to the Chaminade game. Not as quick or athletic but definitely a very well rounded & coached team that was a lot more physical.
