Was gonna wait but what the heck....opinons, projections, thoughts, who will play where?

[bballdad]

Big step back for the Colts. Probably will still be competitive but can't imagine matching the success of the past couple of years.

[NORTON 14]

Its pretty nice walking into a school that has two really strong senior classes!You want to know whats bad is that numbers of the program drop off so much from last year to this year and we can not have that.We need as many boys out on the football field as we can get.

[5knots]

My guess is CF will be just fine....so you only beat everyone by 7 next year....is that so bad. My prediction.....9-1....of course back in the loss column when the Red Riders come to town week 9...lol.

Never is.

From what I hear...and it pains me to say so but CF has a bunch of young talent coming. Jr high and Freshman I think had great years. That builds on what has been going on there. Things seem to keep going in the right direction.

Week 9 might be rough for the colts though. Lol!

How did having fewer players affect the team this year in a negative way? This year we had a better team and better record with fewer players. Being successful is not about the number of kids, but having the right kids. Why would anybody want to have kids on the team that don't want to pay the price to be successful? All they do is drag down the other kids. Reaching a high level in Ohio high school football today requires alot of hard work, commitment and discipline and not every kid is willing to do that. Is the goal quality or quantity? In many cases it's hard to achieve both.

The 2010 Colt Football Program may have had fewer participants than last year, but apparently there were just as many football players !

[burnt wood]

as i look back at last summer's workouts, 7 on 7's, scrimmages, etc... and
of course the first game of the season, i could never have immagined the
success we had this year. things looked pretty rough early on. i thought
as though we may be lean in the skilled areas and with the lack of physical
size, it made me very skeptical, but we all seen how things worked out.
alot can change in a years time. kids grow and mature. commitment is
the key. not numbers. and yes we do have alot of young tallent, but some
times it's the kids you least expected that mature into something special.
positive attitude and the right environment can bring out the best in many,
so we'll just have to wait and see. it's been a real joy watching jordan these
past few years though. that, i will miss.

Is jordan goingany where for football

[Bird Nation]

Ashland U wants him.

[oldfart67]

That's it

[CFColts]

There will be a lot of new starters next year. A lot can change based on how much work is put in starting now. It will be interesting to see what offense CF runs next year and who the starting qb is. As for the younger grades, the Frosh had a tough year with injuries but they are a talented group. The 7th and 8th grade teams finished 6-2 on the year. More depth would be nice but not every kid is willing to put in the effort it requires to be successful.

[Press Box]

I think what might be holding Jordan back is not his ability to play, but his grades. If a players grades are poor colleges shy away in a hurry.

[5knots]

No matter what....he was a great high school football player and fun to watch......even more fun to watch him graduate!!! so we don't have to try and tackle him any more. haha. Best of luck to the young man in baseball season and beyond.

I am uncertain if this writer had any first-hand experience in any phase of the collegiate recruiting of student athletes. High school grade point averages are only one aspect of the process. This young man will graduate with a certified high school diploma from an accredited Ohio secondary school. That puts him into a very large pool of people this June.

Another aspect of the collegiate recruiting process is the athletic ability of the prospective student-athletes. In this classroom, Jordan McCune is an "A + Student".
I might suggest that any further discussion of this student or any student and their performance in the classroom be a non-forum item.
Unless you are one of his teachers and base your comment upon first-hand academic knowledge, you should refrain from making statements that are only hearsay. If you are a teacher of his, I ask why you are making any comments about your students anyway!!!!!

A side bar to this posting is the personality of the player. He has grown into a very personable young man that any employer would love to have as an employee. Let's talk sports-this is not the academic hotline--it is JJ HUDDLE

[caddyshack]

Well said Fumble.
