abbatt Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 Solid states........if you`er comparing....Ohio....IL....Tn......PA........Mi.........etc......Ohio would still be at the top......but they aren`t an elite level state any more....and haven`t been for about 5 years.Teams from WI......MN......Ne. don`t belong near any top 100 poll ever.......I think it was Prepforce that had Lakeville North,Mn. and Muskego Wi. in their top 5 regional poll that`s absurd......A realistic top 100 national poll would be 85% teams from Georgia.....California....Texas.......Florida....with 1-2 teams from states like NJ....SJR......LA...John Curtis...Ohio..not sure which one or two......one from IL......one from MO.....maybe 2 this year......Cardinal Ritter and DesMet Jesuit......and that`s about it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abbatt Posted September 21, 2019 Report Share Posted September 21, 2019 I would certainly have the top 4 WCAC teams in the top 50....even though they have lost most of their OOS games, they are losing respectfully to top tier teams...It is a very tough conference 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the most part, it's not about states anymore. It's about programs. There is a group at the top right now, and everyone else is playing for scraps as far as the national picture is concerned. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not every year, but this year we do. I won't argue with you there, but I think even you would admit that MD and SJB are in a league of their own. The rest of California's top ten would actually look like they're playing the same game as the top teams from other "power" states. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the Buddy LaRosa Classic. But Fairfield beat Berwick 5 or 6 years before Iggy went to Berwick. When Berwick lost in Cincy they were ranked #1 or 2 in USA Today. You do know that George Curry and Berwick were 2 or 3 times national champions as was Iggy? There was incredible national hyperbole for their first game in PA.

Chuck Kyle is considered by many to be one of the best (and most successful) high school coaches ever. Bill McGregor led DeMatha to more USA Today top 25 rankings during his reign than any other school in America except De La Salle. He was also named by the NFL as national high school coach of the year and arguably his best team, ‘98, was on the back of a box of Cheerios. Both Kyle and McGregor have continued their excellence for an unheard of, almost 40 years. DeMatha’s Bill McGregor graduated from Cleveland’s John Carroll University. And, Bill and Chuck are good, long standing friends. For the first time these two coaching legends and their teams (both of which are strong) meet. Iggy is travelling to the D. C. area to play DeMatha on Saturday afternoon at Fed Ex Stadium’s auxiliary field. I believe this is only the second time in 40+ years that St. Ignatius has travelled this far for a game. The first was in the late ‘90’s when Iggy and Ohio football were at the top and travelled to Berwick to play George Curry’s several time national champion team. (I saw the first game of the two game series when St. Ignatius rolled.) With all due respect to the several recent bi coastal games and their hype, given the history of these incredibly successful programs and the stature of their future Hall of Fame coaches this is as important of a game as any that will be played this year. This is not about three, four and five star athletes (of which there will be many). Rather it is about two programs and their creators who have helped shape high school football in America. Big Drop One thing I learned today if you give up a 75 yard first play touchdown and 4 turnovers you can’t beat God!
