I bet those family reunions are a blast.

UK#1fan has a Catholic cousin in the Ville.

 

That is an instant classic and had me in tears. UK#1 is in a class by himself

As much as I love football....Oh for the love of God!!! Here we go again! This will be an interesting year to watch some of the BGP kids in the sandbox. :lol::lol::lol:

Wrong! X has 4 stud backs that could start anywhere including Trinity

 

That's pretty strong !!

Well to clarify, X has 3 backs that could go to Trinity and start over Daylen Dawkins, all underclassmen. You'll didn't see much of them b/c of the Stud, Lamont McMurry, but these 3 backs are far more discplined then he was, and as far as quarterback goes: Yes there is a mold of Buenher under Center. He's faster, better playmaking ability, but undersized. But no question X's backfield is loaded

 

Welcome to BGP Avid and I love your spirit!!

 

Good luck to you on BGP this year! Sorry but I'm just sayin'!!! :lol::scared::lol:

TD

 

I loved the observation about having a No. Ky. Cousin - that was priceless (& fitting). "Kids in the sandbox" was a close second - IMHO. Don't know what he/she is on - but I will take $50. worth of it.

I have no issue with his/her spirit and no doubt X has MANY great athletes. My fear is not a real game has been played yet and already potential bulletin board material. I'm just thinking the "Speak softly and carry a big stick."

He/she should be thankful that LSURock is no longer with us.

Brother, I admire your passion for the Tigers, but I tried to talk you into putting the pin back in that grenade you were about to drop and you just wouldn't listen. Even assuming for a moment that you are correct--X has 3 backs better than Dawkins--I would maybe wait to share that opinion publicly, especially to our esteemed Trinity colleagues, until after these wonder backs have chewed up the Rocks for 300 or 400 combined yards of rushing. Until then, let's just act like we are digging fox holes (Sorry, I've been watching too much Military Channel).

Oh WOW...True story!

I have no doubt he is up in heaven reading BGP. There will be no "rest in peace" for LSURock when it comes to Trinity.

That is some strong stuff there ! But, I would say that the three backs that St. X has in the rotation are strong once all get healthy.. I think that you would be hardpressed to find a better rotation. Quarterback Mattingly is no slouch either.

My gosh, I've really missed a lot. My power has been out since last Saturday afternoon, and just now got restored. I love the spirit shown by these new Tiger posters, but even I would have to say that they have drank too much Kool-Aid. We did manage to look good against a rather sloppy Simon Kenton team last Friday night. However in defense of the Pioneers, neither of their star players, RB Nate Powell or LB/TE/RB Jared Bowling played in the scrimmage. Given their absence, I'm not really sure how much stock to put in the big win. But I probably would say that we need to move from #7 to #6.

 

When they talk about all the great backs we supposedly have that were held back because "the Stud", Lamont McMurray was at TB, they need to remember the big 83-7 difference between T&X last season when Derek Bishop was running ruffshod over us while Lamont was being held in check. How then can backs who couldn't surpass McMurray be an improvement?

 

Both the two juniors and the two sophomores that are now primed to run for the Tigers are "good high school backs", but they are no where near the caliper of a "bellweather back" we normally have like a Lamont or Deuce Finch. In regards to Mattingly at QB, he did look very sharp throwing the ball to Wempe. The big thing though is we must find a way to keep him healthy for the season. He has had a lot of injury problems in the previous years. Plus we desparately need to develop more than one receiver for Mattingly's passes, or we are going to make it awfully easy for opposing defenses to negate our new air attack.

 

Moving forward, the BIG POSITIVE THING shown by the Tigers last Friday was how well they operated with an entirely new 4-2-5 defense with people flying to the ball and a pistol spread offense which stretched the length and breadth of the field. We actually threw some deep post patterns....unreal. These changes seem to have brought a whole new level of enthusiasm amongst both the coaches and the players. I know Simon Kenton was totally surprised! :ylsuper:

 

Teddy Roosevelt always advised, "Walk softly and carry a big stick", not "Talk loudly while carrying a toothpick." We need to accept our baby steps and go one game at a time. Our true strengths this season are T-E-A-M, numbers, discipline, and tradition.

Missed ya OX!
