The Indiana traveling rule hurts them from competing against OOS games other than Ohio , Illinois & Michigan so not always a fair comparison but you know this while others forget or don’t know 😀 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said to myself what can I do now? Well dressed in my golf wet suit I went to the game. The weather was so bad that the Cocoa band went to the bus to dry off after playing at halftime 😂 I'll never forget your RB, the kid was unstoppable that game. The rain and wind made it a running game early and he was lightning in a bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cole Gest went to Indiana and played some but got hurt then transferred to Youngstown state 3 or 4th year i was most impressed with Chauncey Gardner best player that day on the field and I said he would play in the NFL some day 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't know he transferred out and was still playing. I had the pleasure of watching Gardener play from freshman and on. He is a special player with tons of spirit. Him and Dean were scary good.

National teams are programs that have repeatable formulas year in and year out. Buford is a good Ga team, but not a National level team. FWIW Buford would not be Top 10 in Calif. You don’t know that. bgw 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atticus Finch Posted August 27, 2021 Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 Collins Hill is now a top 25 program in the country after accomplishing precisely nothing.

A 3-loss team in 2020 who's only result so far this year a is 36-10 win over a team that will be borderline top 500. A 26-point win is good but it's not even a running clock against merely an OK team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah they still hover around the state semifinal round. They're just not as good defensively as they were under Wilkinson and their offense is now oopty-oop so it doesn't help at all.

Other than that completely inaccurate claim, bang-up job! Sorry, I didn't go back and look it up like you did. It felt like 15 years ago. And their losing record was actually eight years prior to being ranked #1. So that wasn't even close either lol. Stuff tends to blend together when you get old.

How many of those kids from last year's Grayson team moved on vs how many of those Collins Hill kids came back? We say what happened to Grayson last week. Look I get it. This isn't my first time being a new guy on a forum. I know how it works. New guy gets no love while the vets disregard what the new guy says until they finally realize the new guy kinda knows what he's talking about. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buford had been around Sammy, and are recognized for it. Just those in the know. Some in the know recognize this. Try to leave your big state of SJB/MD lack of parity “bubble”. In another vein Buford is All Galaxy in power five commits, no one is even close. bgw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
