But that I see as bad optics outside NJ. To anyone in NJ who knew football, we had 7 starters out, and lost 3 more during the game. We were not a good team. Our DE that game weighed 195, was a 2nd-string LB and a 3rd-string DE, and was really a LAX player. Even healthy, though, we lose by 15-20, instead of 50-21 The game was sort of competitive for almost 3 quarters. we lead most of the 1st half and were within 2 scores with 5 minutes to go in q3. I’d take that Bosco team and lay 14 points over ANY NJ team this year. This year’s Bergen team would be blown out in 1 quarter by that MC team.

Testadura Posted October 28, 2023 Author Share Posted October 28, 2023 But more important, that dog Bosco team later beat Joes at Joes by 7. joes was ranked 5 or 6. Beating Bosco and winning states would have made them top 5, and they lose to Bosco. that’s why I asked about NJ going downhill, not Bosco. a top-5 Bosco team never loses to a Joes team, ever. The whole state has been shitting itself since 2011 So, after MC, we went on to beat the #5 or 6 team in the country. how did NJ decline?

Top ballers started going to others schools other than DBP, which caused the parity we see today. From 2000-2011 every top player creaved to be at DBP. No NJ team has that dominant allurement anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From 2000-2011 every top player creaved to be at DBP. No NJ team has that dominant allurement anymore. Every year in 2001-11, there was at least 1 other solid NJ team in the top 100. And Bosco throttled them except for a year or 2. How does Joes blow a top-5 finish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Testadura Posted October 28, 2023 Author Share Posted October 28, 2023 BC would have finished top 5 last year had they not gotten waxed 31-7 at home by Bosco. and didnt Bosco ruin another top season for BC? These weren’t great Bosco teams. And they’re in MetLife 3 of the last 4 years? Something’s wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Testadura Posted October 28, 2023 Author Share Posted October 28, 2023 I’ll give you part of the answer: Amateurs looking to get ahead at the kids’ expense are a big problem. parity, yes, of course, but parity is a result of selfish adults trying to get ahead off the kids.

To be a top 5 team you need an elite OOS win on the resume. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing is what happens when you’re worse than the other team. im asking how did our teams go downhill. Losing is just the outcome of becoming worse. Why did we get so bad?

He transferred 11 years ago, and due that single action, NJ football is becoming or is irrelevant? did big transfers occur before? After? Still? More? Less? In other states? How long has IMG been poaching? nothing else of note happened? He unleashed irreversible decline? No one could adapt or benefit or mitigate? like a meteor hitting the planet, causing calamitous consequences put in motion with nothing to stand in their way, and so, life just died? 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a decade prior to that, DBP had a corner on the market for every baller looking to excel at the college level. No other HSFB program nationally since DBP has housed five (5) All-Americans on the same roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
