Best of Luck to all the MAC Schools tomorrow!  Here's hoping to be 3-0.

I can only assume most posters have been around the game to understand that you get one shot at it "to win" in the moment. 

It's great that poster are now saying one more time it would be different......

I'm sure most teams would feel that way on either side of the ball.

Way to go LYCO! I wish it wasn't this close, but I'll take it just the same.

  I have not posted all season but have enjoyed reading all the banter.  I figured I would break my silence in wishing Lyco Warriors and our son good luck against LVC College in his last Regular Season Game.

   To all the players that I've had the pleasure to get to know, Chat with, and occasionally cook for, I wish you all continued success.

GO WARRIORS!

just got back from LYCO...Coach Clark has 104 players on his roster to start camp.

He was looking at several MAC schools and a couple Div II schools, but really like the atmosphere from the begining  Made friends the very first W/E up there and has never looked back.

I've asked him several times if he would do anything different in selecting a school, his reply has been "no nothing would change".

Good luck with everything.

Sorry Cap maybe I din't give enough info in that response or maybe we haven't talk before.  I'm a father of a current lyco player in his last year hence last year of tuition payments for me.

But I love the opening days of camp and the season, it's like fresh grass in the spring.  and too boot I'm a football junkie.

I think just 3 or 4 years ago there was conversation about 50 kids being a large class.  Now that"50" number wasn't iron clad but average in our discussions.   That discussion really center around the MAC schools, of which some have left the league.

So in the short amount of time, What gives?  Is it truly Quantity over Quality ?  who knows? 

I do agree that coaches must account for losing 10-15 freshman not returning to school or football every season. 

I personally can't wait for camp to begin, of course this is my last year of tuition payments!!!!  Good Luck to all.

I understand that the philly area has serve lyco well in years past...my only question which i sorta pose to "G" a few years ago..."why doesn't Lyco have a bigger presence in the Mid-Penn Conference.  There's plenty of talent there...and it's a very competitive league. 

But yet there are only a few kids from that league that play for lyco.  Coach Clark tap that unused resource only 90 minutes to the south along with philly area kids.

just an observation and not meant as any critisism

most MAC schools release the names of in-coming freshmen

I was very impressed with Albright "O" last year but they did taper off as a team a little.  How many key guys did they loose?

Lyco has the talent to compete, but there's alot of ?'s because several skill guys are young.  QB, RB, etc.  plus replacing Yapple won't be easy.  This group of players needs to learn how to Win when their backs are against the wall.

I know it's slow, but like talking Football.

So now that the dust has settled with Lyco, What are the expectations of MAC teams this year?

Is any one or two teams going to stand out?  looking for views from others regarding "your" teams.

I also heard that news via phonecall!

Thanks for update Dre.

Housecalls.....not to get all retro....but my 2nd grade teacher was Mrs. Fernbaugh who retire last year after 35 years I believe. 

And we're good friends of  Mrs. Watson and family(to include Kenny!)

Good luck teaching in HBG.  there are many great people in that community that tends not to be reported, they only the shootings are news.

13-J Hall Manor, 1 row down from foose, aaahhhh  the memories!

Well spoken 4warrior, my son (current warrior) echoes alot of your thoughts as well.

House calls...where do you teach?  I grew up in the shadow of FOOSE school.....and was a shooting gallery back then.

Deck that's alittle harsh...if you followed sport enough you know that a record with numbers never tells the whole story.

I'll be honest I think Lyco playing so many freshman this past year was their downfall(3-7).  Wiser was looking for that next golden child that didn't exist on D, and some young men on O just need to develop some poise in gametime situations,  G didn't leave the closet empty of talent.  Several games COULD have been wins that weren't, that why the games are played.

But Lyco could have easily been 6-4 in a very competitive MAC conference.
