I DONT know who Coaches Riordan so did he win some lower level “State Championship”?….. I have no idea, you tell me….
As far as the WCAL goes I know Serra and SF won some kind of D2 “Sate Championship” and I am sure their are others…..
With 17 D1 in players you should be winning the Real State Championship which is the Open, not losing 4 games….
Put 17 D1 players on DLS and They win the Open because they will be well coached and developed…. 🤣
Interesting you bring up DLS. Makes me wonder what is the most D1 guys they have in all the years per season. I don’t think it is close to 17. I know for sure they have had no more than 2 on their state titles teams for basketball and all the great runs.
As for Riordan it’s a very interesting story. One would think they would be so much better. However sometimes it’s not just about having a loaded roster on paper. There has to be a complete buy in and everyone has to fill the role.
They do have a couple of guy who obviously are legit. Lawson is going to Washington. Tofi is going to Cal. I am not familiar with enough to say anything about offers as football recruiting is nothing I ever followed. But the younger Tofi did get an offer from Ohio State which I tend to think is rare for Bay Area kids so I would say that is legit.
Overall the school has tons of talent sports wise. But in the end every kid wants to win titles. It’s like the new to basketball Caitlin Clark fans. They will scream about records and many think she is the best in the WNBA at this moment. But one thing has eluded her. No state or college rings. And SH did win a bowl game, however as an alum I look at their title as I would a D5 basketball. In my alums case, they were far form one of the Bay Area best.
