Now we have a lot of games to be played and many things can change and I have no doubt that many of you will see things much differently than I see them; but that is ok, you are allowed to have your own ideas about things. Unlike some folks, I don't think that we all have to have the same opinions about things.

Based on games so far, this is how my current ranking of 5A stands.

With the Dingle kid out for the rest of the year for Byrnes how much do you think that will effect y’all’s defense?

If he is in fact OUT for the rest of the year, it will be HUGE for the defense as he is one of the LEADERS out there. I think we are still #2 Seed at best in Region Two and that would have to be if the offense steps up and plays all four quarters and not just being a second half team. Right now, I would put the over/under at 6.5 wins.

Wins in the books: 2

Likely wins: 3
Byrnes 296.3 VS 243.2 Greer
Byrnes 296.3 AT 230.6 Wren
Byrnes 296.3 VS 240.9 Boiling Springs

Possible wins: 2
Byrnes 296.3 AT 269.6 Greenville
Byrnes 296.3 AT 278.8 West Florence

Tough wins to pick up:
Byrnes 296.3 AT 272.4 Spartanburg
Byrnes 296.3 AT 289.7 Dorman
Byrnes 296.3 VS 288.7 Gaffney

Well his father has tweeted out that they are shutting him down for the rest of the year due to the shoulder injury.

Yeah I heard his dad was saying he is done....

He has been injury prone since getting to Byrnes. He has yet to finish a year the last 3 years, if in fact he is done for the year. Hopefully he can stay healthy at the next level. As far effecting, he will be missed, but plenty of talent to replace him.

How is a no win Gaffney team ahead of 2-0 Dorman or Byrnes?

That loss to South Pointe, to me means more than the two wins over Brookland Cayce and Chapman in the case of Byrnes and Dorman's defense has given up a lot of points and yards. Dorman's very good O-Line and run game is good, but Greenwood win doesn't look that impressive and North Augusta win was not impressive either. I know Gaffney always starts slow as well.

I'm good we had 5 out .plus have to replace center.
We are big on oline .we ave 300 last year we arr bigger now.but young .we could be a beast
In a month.but not as explosive as last year.
That team was a few yrs in the making.
We need them reps right guard or t a ckle is 14 yrs old.
7ft 400 pounder ain't even starting yet.
Next two years we are going to be huge.
