What does St. Xavier need to do to improve in 2016? What do they need to keep doing to be successful? Remember, please be constructive.

Consistency from their QB will allow them to over come some short comings on offense, and their OL should be pretty good this year too. Defense under Bruner has kept the Tigers in a number of games and should be tough again this year.

 

They're returning about 13 starters so they have some experience returning, but will have to play mistake free football and take advantage of opportunities that come their against the top teams on their schedule.

This smells very bad!

Well that is an unfortunate perspective from a Tiger for St. X in 2016. :clap:

This smells very bad!

 

then open a window!

This smells very good!

The Tigers run their intrasquad scrimmage in a different manner than my Alma Mater. Ridder played QB today and will not play versus Simon Kenton. He will sit out the first two regular season games. Albers performed adequately at QB. It started at 9:00AM and was over before 10:30AM with a ten minute break built in. I am not familiar with their roster and today was team photo day. The Tiger faithful will know more next week. Coach Wolford de-emphasized the importance of this scrimmage to the parents back in the spring.

Which quarterback is going to the University of Cincinnati on scholarship? Is he eligible to play in week 2 vs Bowling Green or is he sitting out? Curious and a bit confused. If you don't mind let me know. Hope you have a good year Saint X. Thank you

The one going to UC will NOT play vs Bowling Green per St X alumnus with knowledge of the situation.

I hope he plays. He is a very good athlete. I have a feeling he will play against the Purples.

If he doesn't play, it could be a long night for the Tigers at the El.

Did the Tigers fall to Simon Kenton in their scrimmage?

Yes. Tied at 7 at halftime.

 

SK "won" 35-28. From outside looking in, pretty discouraging

St. X had a chance to go up two scores but Brian Carter intercepted a pass in the end zone. SK scored on a 4th and G from the one on a pass. St. X has a nice looking D-Line and gave SK some problems early in the game.

X "loses" to SK 2 years in a row??? Time of them to turn in their 6A elite cards?
