Heritage has had a significantly better record sine Hartwig left freedom for Heritage, so yes, it is coaching…..

Having multiple coaches in a short period of time is a bad sign for Freedom…. Usually when this happens, programs take a step back or 2 and talented kids are open to other options…. HSFB programs need consistency and all the top ones have long time coaches….

And when you are as successful a Coach as Hartwig and you have been somewhere for a long time, you don’t leave unless there is some kind of conflict within the administration…. I believe his last team there was a Section Finalist, it’s not like they stunk….

So who knows, it may be complicated or it may just be as simple as Freedom is no longer getting the “Jimmies and Joe’s”…. 🤣

Did you see Riordan run for over 300 on Pitt last night? My point is they can run the football if they so choose to.

Coaching issues…, Ever Since Hartwig left they have never been the same…. They used to be a Section title contender every year and since COVID they can barley win a few games a year….

bosco is way down this year. lots of kids having to go both ways and nowhere near the size as normal they also weren’t as fast as advertised, respectable showing by serra and to keep it 100 I think that DLS would either play bosco close or beat them this year. Too bad for them though that maaterdei will be the so cal open rep.

Totally!..,. Serra did some good things in that game, and they are overall a young team when it comes to playing experience….

And look at so cal…. Sierra Canyon lost to SJB 38-28…. Cen10 lost to them 43-42 in the playoffs…. OLU just beat SFA, Rancho Santa Margarita just beat Cen10…..

If you don’t play those types of teams you will never understand how to beat them…. Serra wants to go back to the Open and win, to do that, you have to play a great schedule that includes either MD, SJB or another National Power…. And they have done that…..

The only teams that will Challenge Serra in league are SF and Riordan…. Based on what Serra did to Folsom, I think Riordan is out…. SF will be a bigger challenge due to their running game….

Kudos to Serra for Playing this game,… Let’s go PITT!!!….

Tells Serra where they need to be to be elite. A ways to go, but a young team. If they play these elite games, it will most likely draw better players over time as long as they can keep winning the WCAL and going far in the playoffs and state.

Aca was going to go up to play Galena in Reno this weekend, but that game was canceled due to the Davis Fire. Galena's been shut down all week, and their team has had no practice.

They will play at Del Oro instead.

Serra scored more points today (16) then They have in 3 state open games (7)…. That’s a Win for Serra…. 🤣

Watching Serra’s Defense give up 95 points combined to DLS and SJB makes you really wonder how is the Heck did Folsom only score 19 on Serra?…. Folsom’s offense seems very overrated and their schedule is straight garbage….

Will be interesting to see how PITT does against SJB next week…. PITT should be able to score on SJB, but their defense will be the issue….

So Glad to see Serra and PITT taking on this challenge….. Kudos to Serra for putting together the Best Schedule in Nor Cal and PITT right behind them….

I highly recommend everyone that is a skeptic to visit a Prolific Prep, Montverde, Link Prep basketball practice. Then please come back to this thread and report back. I think that would be a great idea for someone to do.

If any skeptic would like to come to Prolific Prep next week. ProlificPrepInfo@gmail.com. Practice is at 5pm.

Last week had head coaches from Oregon, Baylor, Kentucky, UCLA, Kansas, Iowa, West Virginia, USC (not assistant but head coaches) who would disagree with what is said on this thread. And don’t forget these same folks place their committed recruits with the top prep schools because they want them prepared when they enter college.

Another factor that most people look over is that a lot of these colleges are then visiting other NorCal high schools only because they’re in town looking at Prolific Prep and GSP. The local high schools really respect Prolific Prep and GSP because they know we are assisting local kids looks for their guys but everyone on here are probably disregards that very important fact. Especially mid majors which do not have huge budgets, but if they can come here and look at 10 potential players and then visit some local high school talent, it makes sense for their budget to make the trip.

Tuesday's my trivia night in Half Moon Bay (except during basketball season). Besides, I've never been to ANY basketball practice, so I wouldn't know what I'm looking at, really...

They might have made the score closer than it was. For whatever reason Evans did not change his defensive approach and just let Wilcox fullback/halfback dive SH to death. They must have known Wilcox was a run heavy team that is not a legitimate threat to throw the ball. 8 in the box or Bears 46 alignment probably wouldve been the better choice. Welp, they get a bye week to get healthy for a shootout at the jolly rancher.
