DFOLDMAN is obsessed with Daniel and doesn't know his stuff. Daniel's preseason schedule was JL Mann (5A upperstate), Hilcrest (5A 3rd round), and Crest (NC State Semifinals). Daniel's roster this year sucked compared to 2020 & 2021 state titles.DFOLDMAN wrote: ↑Mon Dec 11, 2023 8:08 amWell, well, well....the Return of Scooter McDDub...(his friends call him "Skippy")...Slick, Penguin, Colby, Mikey...say "hey" to Skippy.
You're preaching to the choir, brother...at times,DF was gawd awful this season. I kept telling the board not sure what was going to show up week to week. I think the most worrisome part for SC HS football was that a five loss team was the best team in the state. That's about as sad as DF was at times this season.
You've said the same thing I said about DWD's non-region schedule, so don't get self-righteous on me...you don't wear it well. If D. Wistar does go 4A Ole Fruster the Rooster is going to need to toughen up that non-region schedule, because come playoff time...NW and SP ain't Wren or Seneca. You know that, you've said as much. D.Wistar did what was expected with a talented senior class this season in 3A.
As far as the Foxes this season, to greater extent than last season, injuries were prevalent -that comes with the sport, but a lot of underclassmen were thrown into the fire before they were ready. And all Knotts has done has proven my point from years and years ago, the Jimmy's and Joe's were more numerous at DF than just about anyplace in SC, just needed the X's and O's. Knotts has been there 14 seasons, and has played for a state championship in 11 of those seasons, winning 8, most of which came in the last decade. Never won fewer than 9 games a season playing 4A-5A schedules. Good coaches take notice of this and when he does retire, the job will attract top applicants...Pelham, Brand, E.Kimrey come to mind. His son is a freshman, and has grown up a Silver Fox so I think we have him a while- maybe not a McKissick stay but at least for a little while longer...
Don't be a stranger...we've missed you....lol
Fear The Fox...
Not sure what you're saying that this team did what was expected. Nobody thought Daniel would win this year except Daniel. This team should not have won a state title based on talent, but found a way to get it done anyways. The 2023 senior class couldn't hold 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, or 2022's jock strap but found a way to get it done anyways. Replaced 5 college-bound WRs from last year, their QB and RB, and two lineman... This team was well coached and the rest of 3A only has a few well-coached teams.
Daniel will be 4A based on the multiplier because their district has school choice and lots of kids come to Daniel for academics. Last two years Daniel was 4A in 2018-19, Daniel was 22-3 and went to upperstate and beat SP in the playoffs.. Keep yapping
