DeMatha-Close to GC, but I believe Iggy is better than Charlotte Catholic. 4. Good Counsel-see above 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that Bill McGregor is convinced they have the talent (at least 13 major division one offered athletes, front seven back on D, perhaps America’s best rb with an incredible line in front of him). Thirteen or more 3-5 stars. He has brought in a transfer QB from D. C.’s Wilson (started freshman year at SJC)(recent offer from Columbia is his first-sincere bravo to the Ivy League) who has a great deal of potential and who may be the key to the upcoming season. Fantastic potential. For all of the hyperbole about talent and transfers at SJC and SFA DeMatha is still the equal of any. For me the most interesting game is St. Ignatius-a game that should have happened in the ‘90’s when Chuck Kyle was winning national championships at Iggy and Bill had his (and D. C’s) best team ever-‘98 with Scott McBrien and their own 15 major division one offered players) Interestingly Bill has a strong Cleveland connection. He graduated from John Carroll after high school in Pittsburgh. I saw Iggy blow out Berwick in the late ‘90’s when the four or five Cleveland busses had a half mile long caravan following them from Ohio to northeasternn PA. I don’t know how many busses or cars will travel from Cleveland to D. C. this year but it will be a real pleasure to watch Chuck Kyle’s St. Ignatius play Bill McGregor’s DeMatha. In Landover. I believe DeMatha will be undefeated when they play. That would have been a great game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those at the game said it was his best team ever which was an incredible statement since he had a pair of 45 or so game winning streaks and retired with something like 350 wins and only 40 defeats. Anyway I saw DeMatha beat Wyoming Seminary in Wilkes Barre a week or two before. Wyoming Srminary had 5th year players including the previous year’s Pittsburgh Post Gazette player of the year. DeMatha won by 20+ points, two weeks later won the WCAC championship 49-7. I believe CB West was 4th in the US and DM 12th. For me DeMatha was at least as good as Central Bucks West’s best. WyoSem not a football school back then, still not one today. they could have all the 5th year seniors they want, they still wouldn't win a state title in PA. Its a total wrestling school, football is an after-thought up there, always was. You would have seen much better game w/ DeM v CBW that season. That could have gone down to the wire. CBW was a beast at line play. they were never the biggest but certainly the fastest and strongest. I have a bunch of their games from the 90's if interested. And yes that was arguably ONE of his best team in 98' but many will say 99' was better including me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigDrop Posted April 17, 2019 Report Share Posted April 17, 2019 DeMatha vs. Iggy is a big deal. It won’t receive the publicity that it should but for me it is the most interesting game on DeMatha’s schedule. There was a time when Cleveland St. Ignatius was thought of as the absolute best in America. Any list of all time greatest hs teams would include one of the Chuck Kyle ‘90’s Iggy teams. And: Chuck Kyle was a running back at John Carroll in Cleveland about the same time Bill McGregor was there. Did they know each other then? Did they both play for John Carroll-the same years? Is this a 50 year friendship that will have them share a game this Fall outside of D. C? Three national championships for Chuck Kyle, national hs football coach of the year and more than ten top 25 rankings for Bill. This is a game that I have long wanted to see happen. And may have a bit more meaning than anyone suspects. Bravo to Bill McGregor and Chuck Kyle for making it happen. A half century.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
