now lets not take it that far. Pecora was a heck of an athlete. As far as Ramires being number 22 in the nation on maxpreps, you have to take into consideration the number of schools that dont even use maxpreps. Still he has put up some impressive numbers, and is doing a great job filling in the spot of QB for the graduated Pecora.

Your right about the MaxPreps thing, but you have to admit that he could be a possible D1 recruit and is carrying Richlands offense right now

Basically Richland and WH switched on what I was expecting. I got caught up in the numbers (WHs size, Richlands losses)


...BC is a let down too...

Not nearly good enough size or ahtleticism, college football potential yes. As far as the QB richland thing goes, maybe it is the system that makes the QB the last couple years, just maybe Bailiey Jr is not as dumb as Vman makes him out too be (although I still believe Rameriez falls into the system making him esp. considering the performances of Ripple and co the last couple weeks). As far as former mccort coaches go, I would not give them too much props considering one is a defensive coordinator for Rland(yes Rland does have a defensive coordinator believe it or not) and another coaches the JR high team to a not so good record.

Goldenbearfan or whatever you name is, you shouldn't ever talk about football again. Stats are a descent indicator of how people are doing but truly they don't mean to much. Their fun to look at and interesting but truly don't mean that much especially in high school and college football where the level of playing field is different unlike the NFL. So if stats are that important Timmy Chang is the best college Qb to ever play. Terrell Pryor number 1 qb recruit in the nation last year barely threw for 1,000 yds. As to say someone is a D1 recruit by judging off stats, shows you've never followed football in your life.

size is definately the issue for ramires...i'd say about 5'11'' maybe 180?

however based on his athleticism and the fact that he has another whole season to improve, i think he could go to a d2 school

Studying someone's film and seeing what type of plays they make is more important than stats for recruiting. Saying someone is going d2 is very unspecific you could go play at an elite level d2 like cal or iup or play somewhere that is terrible and still d2. I think it is way to early to talk about him and recruiting

I think as far as football goes you should be the one that keeps your mouth shut. While size for him is a problem, hes done great so far considering everyone knows what richland is gonna do....Pass....Pass....Play action Pass....Pass. While your right about Timmy Chang, Pryor didnt have to have all those passing yards, because Jeanette is dangerous essentially everywhere. By the way.....have you EVER seen a Terrell Pryor passing highlight before he started playing at Ohio State? The only thingsi ever saw were huge rushing TDs.
