Watch the emergence of JR WR Jess Davis...............fast becoming every bit the weapon his older brother who was lost for the season middle of last year (and was extremely costly to K's cause in 2014) and then some. I finally got to see this offense in person last week but still want to see them at full strength vs. a good defense.
There are a couple of things I've seen that concern me about Kearney but think it would be a very, very fun atmosphere (and help those somewhat anemic recent turnout numbers) in the Dome!
I have to agree with beatwriter on this one............MSHSAA has zero interest in who wins any of the games. NOW let me let this one out........I got to witness the second half of the Odessa-Harrisonville game at work tonight and would definitely NOT sleep on those Wildcats. They have a very good OLine and a very nice stable of backs and were they ever on fire vs. a strong C3 Dome contender! Not saying Webb would lose but think if the two are fortunate to hook up in the quarters it won't be the blowout that has happened in other recent years.
You will and can not get me going.....................I have some concerns about Kearney this year particularly something they could not control before the season: the schedule. Unfortunately the Small Six is really down this year and Liberty is a shadow of its former self. Again were I a "webbie" I would pay attention to what is going on in HVille.Just to get Toppy going, "Giving someone false hope hurts worse than telling them the truth"
LOVE seeing this and what memories it brings back especially those very first years under Skillman! To this day watching Yale Van Dyne in the 1986 playoffs at Center vs. O'Hara (still get chills thinking about how cold that game was) rates as perhaps my #1 memory of any playoff game and that, given recent history, is a MOUTHFUL.
Now having seen them in person this year I can say definitely this offense is as dynamic as any I've seen since that 2003 machine but is, of course, nowhere close to that level. The only big caveat with it is I wish they would face a top defense but those teams (Fort O-Staley) are no longer on their slate.
What surprised me was the use of the 3star Cale Garrett on offense. I had no idea they would use him like that on offense...along with their other points of attack. It is a fast paced offense. They are facing essentially the same level of defense they did last year--if you look at the numbers, and scoring 14 more points a game. Much improved and more dynamic than the past two years.
