RedZone Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 I don't know much about Cardinal Ritter College Prep. Evidently they're on a 28-game winning streak and have Won back-to-back State football championships in Missouri. They signed 13 D1 prospects this last class. St Aug fired their head coach a few weeks back and hired a pretty good one. He will make a difference. St Aug has the #1 player in the 2026 class in the nation and a few more studs. Talent is never their problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZone Posted January 26 Author Report Share Posted January 26 Cardinal Ritter, MO will be traveling to New Orleans. I got that wrong. Cardinal Ritter so far has 8 prospects with D1 offers including a 4* RB committed to Arkansas. I didn't realize those schools had that kind of talent up there. Anyways. St Aug 2024 Schedule Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZone Posted January 27 Author Report Share Posted January 27 Cardinal Ritter Prep is 6-4 OOS, but the only team that I recognize in the 10 games is Joliet Catholic, Illinois. Home of Rudy! Joliet Catholic beat Cardinal Ritter, MO 30-20 in 2021. Joliet Catholic was 14-0 and the #2 team in Illinois if you believe in the computers. Interesting matchup, I guess. Louisiana doesn't play Missouri that much. Evangel beat Rockhurst back in the day. That's the only match up I can remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Aug hired Robert Valdez who was the offensive line coach at HBCU Grambling State last year. Valdez won a state championship at St James, La few years back. He's a no nonsense guy. Will be interesting to see what he can do at St Aug. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZone Posted January 27 Author Report Share Posted January 27 Man, it just won't stop raining here. Hard fish in the rain....it's possible, but just not very fun. Anyways, Cardinal Ritter Prep, MO also has the legit QB amongst their cast of prospects.. He has some pretty nice offers...... https://www.on3.com/db/carson-boyd-18720/ This Missouri team might be for real if talent has anything to do with it. They kind of look like Warren Easton on the field to me. Typical City team... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Aug 2024 Schedule Small note: Warren Easton is now in the NOLA Catholic League and will play their first Catholic League schedule this year. The NOLA Catholic League may not be the best league in the nation, but it will be highly competitive with LOTS of teams. We may be adding NOLA De La Salle very soon as well.

Of course everyone knows St Aug is an all Black Catholic Boys High School in New Orleans. I guess I can understand this match up a little bit more now. It actually makes sense.

I assume the one loss was earlier in the season? Did they split w New Iberia? I certainly remember the Fournette years. They weren’t lacking in athletes, as I recall back then. Surprised the Union showing in 1979 was from NY. Lou Rettino had a powerhouse at Union, NJ in those days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rummel upset St Aug in 1979..... not really sure it was an upset though we were pretty good just very young. We beat St Aug in 1980 also. We won district that year and lost to the eventual state champion John Ehret in OT in the first round at the Superdome in front of 25,000 people. I have the video. St Aug was ranked back then nationally mostly because of the athletes they had. They were sending 25 to 30 kids every year to colleges. I kid you not. Anyways, those were the good old days.

Makes you wonder about all this talent they've been stocking up recently. They have more of it this year. Never heard of the school until about 3 days ago. I always like to learn a little bit.

RedZone Posted January 29 Author Report Share Posted January 29 Nowadays everybody has athletes and lots of them. That's why ranking teams is just about impossible. Back in the day Ohio Moeller was pumping out an absurd amount of college players. They had their best run back then as well Some say they were getting players from Kentucky and etc. Today, you can have 21 D1 athletes and be ranked #200 in the nation. 😧😆 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at that game. Union, NJ has to be ranked during this period, I would think. Maybe Westfield,NJ in 77-78 period. Whatever the senior year Butch Woolfolk had, I’m guessing. Belleville, Summit, maybe? Cant think of any other public schools with a shot. @Testadura help 😊 @RedZone Public schools in NJ kept their kids back then.
