What kind of team speed will SL have this season?

What kind of team speed will SL have this season?

 

Most total team speed in along time at South Laurel.

Too bad the qb can't sit in the pocket for ten seconds in a game like he does in 7 on 7.

 

With the OL South Laurel returns Bowling will have more than enough time to hit the open man come August 29th when Covington Holy Cross comes to town.

How good will South Laurel's running game be this fall?

South has one of the best linemen in the state...I had the chance to coach him at the UK camp recently and he is the real deal. I expect him to receive an offer if his books etc. are in order. Good luck to this young man.

Who is he?

Who is he?

 

Jeremy Armfield 6-5 270lbs OT

Any SLHS fans know how practice is going thus far.

South Laurel is projected to have a 8-4 season this fall according to California preps, also they are ranked 13th in the state in class 5A.

South Laurel is going to Jabez for team camp this week. I have been hearing good things about SLHS since they resumed practice after dead period.

I agree ROME, I think that South has been working long and hard. I would like to see them have a good season.

I couldn't remember Armfield's name off the bat...thank you. He really stood out in the lineman camp...although I'd say he's closer to 6'4 it doesn't really matter because he can play. My guess is he will be a center/guard type player in college, but he certainly has the feet to play tackle. He has great feet, and is really a tenacious player. He was also a well mannered young man, so best of luck to him on a great year.

Yes I totally agree. He has a lot of talent, and will most likely play at the next level if he can get his grades together and get over is injury so he can get back on the field.

Rule 13

I think this is the best team at South Laurel since 1999 when they went 11-2, won the district and lost a close one to Tates Creek 42-37 in the regional finals. The offence is going to be special with Ricky Bowling at QB, Jake Cobb, Chris Mitchell, Steve Quillen and Blake Fields to make lots of big plays, and it don't hurt that all 5 OL return.

 

If people would quit comparing south teams with the (99 team) then maybe they can make their own mark. Instead of trying to live up to that. Also I don't recall the (99 team) winning a state title or Region title for that matter. And on the OL isn't Armfield out for some games?

Rule 13

What does South Laurel need to do to improve in 2008? What do they need to keep doing to be successful? Remember, please be constructive.

 

South really needs to find a way to stop the run. You can't let teams beat you running the ball. South has a great QB who is hands down the best passer to come throught the school. On the other side he is not Payton Manning he should run the ball when he can. I went to some games last year when someone would rush him he runs for the side line. He needs to try to break tackles and gain some yards. I know he has very good speed.

I agree with you, laurel county sports. There are a lot of questions to be answered on this year's SL team. A good quarterback with some mystery players around him. Which way the intangibles go will dictate much of this season.
