I've heard enough about #27 - after all he is just a JV player. Yes he had a good season. Has some big shoes to fill as he is no Teen- can't even compare him to Teen - they are totally different runners. You can tell he loves the game and that's what we need out there in the HL. Good luck to all teams next season - Congrats to SMCC - keep rolling on!
CC uses 6 or 7 different backs three are leaving...theree good ones. But the others are real close to those leaving and they have some good ones coming up as well.But when its all said and done everyone will wish they were running behind that O-line that is returning..should be an All State line next year.You heard it here on the blog first.
Some thoughts about next years teams, Smcc will be good they are only losing somewhere around 15 seniors but some of them are impact players.Airport has a lot seniors leaving, no doubt that the JV this year is going to have to fill the voids, but they still have joe and kitts. Jefferson should be good with a young team this year look for them to break out next year.Milan will be up there as well with a good offense. other teams like Riverview, Huron, flat rock and GI will be at the bottom of the league like always.
To say that GI will "easily" replace a 2 time all league RB is certainly facetious at best.
Based on the JV games I saw, I would say GI does have talent coming that keeps the ground game an offensive threat. (including O line and RB's)
Agreed that GI needs to develop a D.... they were porous against most opponents this year.
wow seems like GI can replace a two time all huron league running back pretty easy. Good luck #27
Number #27’s dad here…. Yes he had a good year, with very good numbers and I am very proud that he played as well as he did. He also had a good O line to block for him so he could get those numbers.
I also agree with Mr. SITOFN statement…. GI NEEDS TO PUMP THE D UP...too much talk about O skilled players. Job one is to work on our defensive line. Yep we scored a lot of points, but we also let a lot in especially the second half of the season at the JV level.
GI will make our mark in the league if the D gets to the same level as the O.
The best thing about this whole season is the number of athletes, not just “players”, which have come out even with the abundance of sports that are offered on the island. I hope that our program has finally turned the corner and will be even more competitive than we were this last year. In the past we have always found that success breeds success I believe that will be true with our team this next year…..
No QB's in my family....but I am a Huge Football Fan and Dad.
#27 played RB & OLB/DE...size and speed package. He's no Teen, different running style...maybe better for HL?? I feel flames coming on that one.
NOBODY said GI has a QB better than White... rather someone that WILL compete for the job which is why I say a "coaches dream"!
GI's pipeline is flowing with skilled athletes to utilize as signal callers and backfield replacements next year.... B U T
GI NEEDS TO PUMP THE D UP...too much talk about O skilled players.
O Stats are for loosers...O Stats coupled with D excellence brings winners.
BTW, I root for GI football success here and I root for my kids at home (except 1 time when I thanked some praise from HLF). I have no use for "stage-door-dads".

To answer...Can someone tell me about #27 from GI is skilled or big or both?....
Well from the roster when he played us he is listed as 6'2" 180 lb. 10th grader. In seeing him I do not believe that those stats are pumped up at all. Yes he is skilled. Ran very strong, blasted through tackles and had great change of direction.
Not sure of his stats since YES it is only JV. but he did take control of the field when he had the ball.
gi has a JV qb thats better then white? he must be sumthing because white threw for a thousand...that or this is the jv quarterbacks dad talkin mr. sitofn
