No big D1 exhibitions for the Cards this year. I think it makes sense--this is a YOUNG, YOUNG team and they'll need every second to learn how to play together and gel.
If ever there is to be a rebuilding year for Catholic, this is yet. Haven't seen one since I've been around (almost 10 years ago...wow, I'm old). But this is what happens when a team loses its coach and doesn't hire one for many months. But no matter, I'm excited about the talent level on the Cardinals, its just that its concentrated among young players so expectations need to be realistic.
Long term, I think this team is going to be very, very good---able to live up to the tradition of excellence that Catholic has established. This year? No idea, lets play the games and see.
Also, Howes has gone through several complete coaching staff changes. That has to be difficult.
