I take it Campbell didn't do so hot?

I was talking to a friend of mine last night. And he said Campbell did good. he was a little worried about defence. But said the ingredients are there. stay healthy and campbell can give teams a run for there money.

Why would you say that? The starters played two quarters the scrimmage as if it were a real half of football except for kick returns, i.e. time was kept, downs, penalties, time outs, etc. Campbell held their own against a much bigger Niles team, losing 14-7. I left when the second part of the scrimmage started because both teams took their starters out. I can't wait until Thursday night.

If Spread called it a "doosy", I can't imagine he meant it was in Campbell's favor. He's been harder on Campbell than anyone.

Not a shot at Campbell... I wasn't there. I don't know what happened... that's why I asked.

You're not the only one...

Not sure what you guys watched.

BTrev;1646567 wrote:I take it Campbell didn't do so hot?

I heard 2-1 Niles with the starters. Campbell was very basic on offense. Defensively heard the db's were a little weak. Overall people tell me they were conditioned and hitting like a old Campbell team.

If a Campbell team walked on water you'd say look they can't swim! Your opinion is your opinion. It doesn't mean it's an educated opinion.

Well said Devilone.

Campbell played well according to every one i have talked to that was there. the Offence is doing well. But the defence is gonna have to step up a whole notch this next week. And again campbell did not give much to be seen as far as play book. Now i'm not saying we will beat studders. I know they have a much more mature team.LOL!! Get it!!!

If a campbell team walked around the field however, i would not be surprised.
Broke one play for 40 yards when the niles kids thought they heard a whistle, and couldnt stop Niles at all after the first possession. Chill. Double tights does not work with a bad line, or is that an uneducated opinion too?

Yeah he's not even playing weeks 1-2....
Your excuse for the game will not be valid.

I dont think many of the Campbell posters are delusional about where this team is and where it is going. Most posters feel this is at best a 500 team, but for some reason Spread you feel the need to come on here and take unnecessary shots. Werent you the one who said "dont make this a pissing party"? The scrimmage was an improvement and I believe most Campbell posters are seeing improvement in areas from last year and comparing it to that. Of course you Spread are comparing it to an almighty Struthers program that just returned to the playoffs for the first time in 15 years. Its easy to come on here and take pot shots at Campbell when there is no Struthers thread. When the center had 6 bad snaps it was quickly ignored and pawned off as something that will be corrected. Thats what scrimmages are for!!! But when Campbell gives up a TD because the safety got hurt during a timeout and only 10 guys were on the field for the TD were not making excuses for it. Who cares. I know you guys think Streetsboro is a good team but they arent. So if you want to use rose colored glasses thats fine, but enough with making this a pissing party like you so eloquently put. We know Struthers is a much better team and most are expecting a blowout in the mean time grow up a little bit. Also I have zero respect for your loyalty to Struthers and your "Cats" logo by your name. Your digs are worthless to me because you are not a real Struthers fan. Not too long ago you jumped back on the Struthers train as they started improving from the URSULINE IRISH. Please. These events just so happened to coincide. You were defending YOUR Irish all over these sites so save it with "diehard" charade you are putting on for Struthers. Nobody buys it or respects it. When Struthers was down you had another team. I find it even more comical you now bash Mooney and Ursuline on yappi when you were defending area catholics not too long ago. I can respect someone like BTrev...through and through Struthers fan, but its real hard to take anything you say serious on here considering your past allegiances. So continue to take your digs but at the end of the day you are making this a pissing party my friend. Most Campbell posters are being very realistic about this team this year.

Campbell made some improvements in the scrimmage. We are not good enough to beat any GOOD team on the schedule including Struthers. Bottom line Rozum is trying to build this up from the bottom. Yes double tights prob doesnt work when you have a bad line, but I would surmise the point is to force the kids to learn and improve. Its not an ego thing. It is about getting better for the future. One coach marveled about how little technique these kids had learned coming into this offseason. The previous staff won two conference championships without teaching much. Imagine trying to teach a bunch of senior linemen the proper steps for the first time. Imagine trying to teach the linebackers they actually have to read and react for the first time. You cant just blitz every down. Its not going to happen overnight. Small steps. I am pleased with the progress so far. Also I am not joining in on the bickering, I get along with everyone here and enjoy talking football and not measuring penises behind computer screens lol.

You are delusional. Always been a struthers fan. Supporter of Ursuline as well but what happened to Ursuline after 2011? Ah yeah my support left the program lol. Where were you all last season? Lol I have never ever supported mooney ever in life. Nor will I.

It is a scrimmage. I think it was a very sloppy one. Is something wrong with that? And to say an opinion is uneducated is simply not true. I am always right about campbell! Every single year! (Go read my posts from prior years, lol) I have not said Campbell will stink. I have implied it. You have said it. They will.You won't post again or go to the games after week 4. But you're a true fan right

4 years ago when Campbell beat struthers you guys were ruthless oh and now you're the bottom feeders again and you're upset? Hilarious
Struthers has beaten Campbell about every year since what? 2004? This isn't new to us.


You you can see the struthers program is different and you HATE IT. cry.

Oh oh and don't worry. I have heard that CMhs does not want to renew with the cats in 2015.

And then the nerve people have to talk down on mick. He did his best. The kids he had did not buy in. Not his fault, can't change mentality. He did win two conference titles after all. Great coach who lost his way is all. (Not at you reddevil90)

Struthers guys...help me with some research I am doing for tho history of the rivalry. What nfl or afl draft picks has Struthers had? Name and year? Any historians that could help me

What kinds of things are you guys expecting/hoping to see from the Devils in week 1?

BTrev;1646803 wrote:What kinds of things are you guys expecting/hoping to see from the Devils in week 1?

Some good ol fashion licks here and there. And just to move the ball with consistency. Defensively. Soupcity summed it up with the D. Not to blitz and Reed the the QB and see if we can get some stops. And definitely not seeing kids sit down on the sideline laughing when we are losing. And the return to the rivalry the way it should be!

Spread. No disrespect at all. But he lost the team the day he took over. it slowly reared its ugly head. But it was the way it was. You can not allow a player to get into trouble in school or get into fights and beat someone half to death and still play. It happen year in and out. Then the kids not showing up for practise and still allowing them on the team. It allowed other players to believe they can do whatever. I'm not putting him down at all. But he inherited some really good teams after bayuk left. and he could have went a lot further in 2010 if he was a lot tougher on the kids. Also coaches over the years did a lot of nothing to instill tradition in those teams and it showed every week,

It was almost like the kids didn't mind getting their asses kicked in last season vs Struthers. That really bothered me about it. Its the biggest game of the year!

BTrev any info on my last question ? You don't happen to have that Struthers scrapbook?

Marino out 4-6 for Lakeview

Struthers is a good program right now with a good staff. Campbell is rebuilding. Period. The only thing anyone can ask from Campbell in week one is to play hard, limit mistakes such as turnovers, penalties, etc and trust in your coaches and teammates. If you can do that, you give yourself a better chance to win the game. That is all anyone can ask for.

The Campbell philosophy is different than Sikora's. Its not better or worse it is just different. The kids are working hard as is the staff. I hope that the fans can get behind this team no matter what.

I don't understand why the offensive line coach who is at Campbell now and was with Sikora couldn't teach them the proper technique when was with Sikora?
