Pioneer Valley Conf 2016

[Twogirls]

This is crazy. Trail will be ready I promise.

[pvcguy]

I think Trail will be good. I just thought they would be young. I figure the new coaches will work hard and have their kids ready. Trail may be better than I thought.

[Twogirls]

I am confident in Spiker calling the offense at BT.

[pvcguy]

Where do the Caldwell fans think Ivey will play? Does he have the arm to play quarterback?

Will Jones play quarterback for Shenandoah?

Hypothetically if Hooper - Jones - Ivey - Engle are quarterbacks it would he safe to assume the PVC will have more athletic quarterbacks than other conferences.

Buckeye Trail will replace Gadd and Frontier will replace Metheny depending on who they replaced them with there could be a lot of running quarterbacks.

Ivey will be running back. Depending on the offense the new coach brings, it's a 2 horse race at qb with Hupp (jr) and Ivey (soph).

Sherman is the name. He will be the best back in the pvc for the next 4 years.

High school is totally different than jr high. I have seen the kid play and he has potential, but won't be the best back this year and not even close to it. Until he takes an actual hit at the varsity level, you dont know what to expect.
Top 3 backs:
Lewis (Fort)
Ivey (Cald)
Snodgrass (Trail)

Absolutely, two things I've learned from junior high football is never get too excited over excellent play, also never get down or depressed over poor play. So many things change you just never know. The same can be said about Highschool-college, how many Under Armour all Americans do we see having next to no impact at the college level, on the flip side you have a walk on catching TD passes for Clemson in the national title game. Same goes for college to NFL, if your a Browns fan you know all about draft busts, on the flip side if your a Patriots fan you know all about signing a nobody that had a huge impact on getting you to the AFC finals.

With all the great talent pvcguy's been watching in Sarahsville the past 8 years, he would probably mistake Trent Richardson for the next Jim Brown.

Frontier has an ATHLETE coming in next year that was a rb, that 8th grade class won alot coming up through but it could potentially mean nothing if they dont get in the weight room and out on the field and put the work in. It is the same for every school in America

I was a good Jr high football player and I got hurt in high school and never was able to play. But I would have been good. So you are correct. But if you seen Jr high football at Shenandoah the last three years you would see why my emotions are running amuck.

[pvcguy]

I get frustrated when guys predict off of one junior high year when you have multiple runs then the celebration is worthy. If there was junior high playoffs which I think are coming are boys wood have done solidly.

[EasternDspy]

Was Shenandoah JV the only team that beat Fort Frye?? I don't follow Jr high closely that's why I ask.

Basing varsity success on Jr. high success is a very, very tricky business.

Let's face it, the best recipe to be the greatest jr. high coach ever is to just get your best athlete the ball on a toss sweep and hope that he breaks a big run. It's the same recipe in those "biddy leagues".

At the varsity level that is rarely the recipe for success. It's more about putting four classes of athletes together, watching film and making game plans, and having kids dedicate to the weight room.

Exactly. You never know what to expect.can you imagine that kid running a dive and Sheldon Archer from Caldwell (2 time all Ohioan) coming downhill at him? It's a different breed of football at varsity level. Takes a certain mentality that you never know if a kid has it until he gets a few games under his belt at the varsity level.

No, I totally understand that! I hope Shenandoah does put together a nice little tradition soon, I was just stating how I've gotten excited over the same things before in fact it was four really good junior high classes in a row. That year they were all in Highschool at the same time though....something just didn't pan out. On the flip side I've seen atrocious junior high teams...literally winless junior high teams go 10-3 their senior year.

Let the dominoes fall where they may.
