I’m broadcasting the DeSmet vs Ray-Pec game Saturday afternoon and need a bunch of information on DeSmet as you all can share.
Help. DeSmet info needed
- Thread starter WPAlum2010
- Start date
De Smet Jesuit is a private Catholic high school serving young men in grades 9-12 in St. Louis, Missouri.
-Head Coach Rob Steeples was on the 2005 State Championship Desmet Team.
Played for Mizzou and Memphis, once out of the NFL came back to coach.
- 2016 = 2-8, 2017 = 1-9, 2018 = 9-3, 2019 = 12-0
- They are lead by a RB trio of Barfield, Butts, and Snider who have combined for 3k+ yards and 46 TDs. They slit time between 2 QBs but they dont throw it much. when they do throw its to 5 Star all American WR and Notre Dame commit Jordan Johnson. Probably 15 or so division 1 prospects and 3 top 100 guys.
- They dont really do anything fancy. they run the ball out of the spread or other pro-style sets. they run 70-30 which of course makes them predictable but no one has stopped them yet. Only scare was to Chaminade who decided to go for 2 instead of tying the game late in the 4th. Game was 32-31. No one else has been within 3 touchdowns
Thank you so much. This will help a ton. I really appreciate it, if interested in watching check out 810varsity.com that’s where the game will be broadcast from. Myself and Taylor Dameron on the call.
RAY PEC is an odd team. They lost to Rock early in the season. Seem to have found themselves. Looked unremarkable beating Liberty North. Gave up an 85 yard punt TD, and still found a way to win, without really looking good. I guess they are a plucky team...just good at the fundamentals. Halway through the regular season I would have picked them 5th in district 8. Yet here they are.
Yea I was include them in the 15 or so. They probably have about 10 guys with offers currently but after this season some more guys should get some attention.
That CBC game from earlier in the season just stuck with me. Desmet is a really big and physical team they just wear their opponents down.
Yeah, I noticed that Francis Howell hung with them into the 3rd, but De Smet just pulled away. I think the only way you beat De Smet is to take some chances and try to build a big lead and make them throw.
Yep and we're giving them praise because they've been the best team in Class 6 all season, but make no mistake they are definitely beatable. Its been some true Juggernaut teams in Missouri in the past I dont think this is one of them.
Like I think the CBC teams from the previous 2 seasons were smoking everyone. Desmet doesnt do that. If Ray-Pec plays their best game this will be a good game.
You're like Nostradamus with this post.
NO SHOT. Just like KC now has NO SHOT to win Class 6.
