2025 WCAL Projections

[cityfan]

The state title team was put in the hall of fame last year. The team the year before was put into the hall of fame at the same time.

Yet the Riordan team with Fontana who would blow the shit out of that losing state title team is not in the hall of fame.

Does that answer your question? There is absolutely no way in hell that team should not be over looked. And trust me plenty of a Riordan guys from my era feel the damn same and I didn’t even go to the damn school.

I get it, but are you referring to the Riordan Hall of Fame? If so, I agree that the Fontana-led team should be added. I remember watching that game and Manigo couldn't buy a bucket that night - tough. If they had the 6'9" center that transferred to Mission mid-season, they would have matched up better with Mater Dei's height, but Fontana, Buckner and Crump more than held their own. Jamie Edwards also had a great game.

All this constant year after year venom and hatred toward the Riordan basketball team, coaches, players and board supporters is fueled by a former Sacred Heart alumni player fighting for justice over a perceived slight on behalf of Riordan players who last played a quarter century ago?
How does that explain your excoriation of Coach Mellis for taking his team to Hawaii instead of another more challenging tournament? As a former WCAL player you of all people should know the value of the life experience gained through the Hawaii trip.

1) When have I ever hated against a player. Let’s start with that, that’s BS.

2) The WCAL has had many teams play in nor cal and win the chip. I am a WCAL guy all the way period. I ain’t a hater like some who literally root against WCAL teams if they get deep. However when it comes to that level of basketball there are kids and teams that can be so much better. Did you see she last play last year against Salesian out of a timeout of all things at CCC. That’s not hate, that’s reality. So yes I will question coaching in such a reality moment.

3) Salesian doesn’t have a bunch of D1 players. So yes I get the experience part, but when your cross bay team who you will most likely play again in the nor cal final once again uses an experience and when your a team that will dominate your league hands down, well playing against adversity is huge. That’s why I have Riordan a kudos as well as De La Salle.

Ask every kid that has won state titles. And since we are speaking of the WCAL will tell you, it’s bragging rights. And it’s something you get to speak on for life. There is one poster on here whose son was two games from Arco. Every kid on that team at Sacramento High was in tears. That’s fact. It’s a special thing. And as we know So Cal is loaded. And the teams in the open don’t play in cupcake leagues. My school is horrible, you think a 49 point blowout is adversity preparation. You need to be prepared. Mayne I am wrong. But my schools girls dominated the nation for a few years and on paper weren’t even close. But Coach Brian accepted all challenges. And Sue does the same. Kind of like De La Salle has done with football.

Thank you for the acknowledgment unlike clowns on here who never attended a WCAL school. The Fontana team was unreal when one looks at the big picture. That team also had Chris Krol and dude from England. I can’t believe his name slips my mind. In all honesty it’s like some of the posters are dying for a title hit on the under make excuses for losses. Win or go home. I was with Dorian and the fellas a few years back in Texas. His son needed up a baller but not sure how far he went.

You guys got great memories! I do know it was Jamie Edwards who was from England. Reggie Johnson was the 6-9 player. He started his HS career at Serra. Jaha Wilson was a freshman that was brought up for the playoffs. Wish he played more in the title game. He was one freshman I thought would contribute on the big stage. Freshman just weren't considered. I think Jason Kidd changed that, at least in the Bay Area. He played like a senior. Best HS player I've ever seen in addition to Gary Payton and Terrence Mullins back in the day.

Jamie Edwards. You got it. Great memory. Thank you for that input

Wizard, from one man to another. You have spent way too much time white knighting for other men who are in their 40s 50s over some BS that is none of your business even if your story is true. Find another cause bro. You are acting like a mark.

Ok 4 messages. You a rookie. Stay out of grown men debates. There is a lot of history on this site. It goes back to the early 2000’s. And I have been on this site since. Ain’t nothing about being a mark. It’s about the history of the game and the many people that have played in different eras compared to today’s charmin era. Charmin as in soft as shit I am gonna transfer mentality. But hey your opinion counts. So I will follow your lead.

Good Point,…

The problem is the poster got: “Peak a Boo” and had no come back.

The problem with these long term posters who think the amount of post or length on the Message Board adds wisdom,…Dumbshit can be carried over for years when ignorance is repeated.

For example: A poster compares today players or Student/Athletes as Charmin Players because they are soft & transfer. What he falls to mention that his infamous “State Banner Team” had two transfers into Riordan, the previous year,…Hmmm-Peak A Boo🤫 But the MOST Historical factor of those transfers, is one of them transferred his sons into @TheR & actually relocated his family to do so,…Hmmm?🤫

Now as far as the Riordan Folklore Teams of Isola,…all those Student/Athletes wanted to come to Riordan as Freshman,…Sound familiar to today as the CIF allows StudentAthletes to transfers. Heck coaches can apply to other program, while thier team in NorCal playoffs: Seems fair🧐

But what you have here is a MAGA populist mentality or more specifically “Make Riordan Great Again”,..Mindset

But based on what is True and an Actual State Title champion has his children at TheR,… TheR is Great Now🙏🏀🙏

Dude when will you ever STFU. Do we have to meet in person so I can do it. You talk and talk. Last year you pumped baseball and what was the record. You are the worst and by far the biggest Riordan rep in history. All yoh do is talk talk talk. And then you add pound pound pound. Well let me make this very clear. Either win or STFU. Participation trophies don’t count and you obviously have a few. And you of all people with such a rich history around the game of basketball of all people, constantly talk each and every year and the year end result is blah blah blah. Kings of Kezar, purple reign, you’re so fake you thought the team won Torrey pines for Christs sakes. Now go tell a staff member to post their fifth message. And I will be sitting on the floor at golden 1 this year. Either bring it or shut it up.

It amazes me that Riordan even lets you in the crusader forum. You should be banned for all the dumb ass shit you have spewed on here cause fact is not one time have you mentioned that last game of the year. FOOTBALL, BASKETBALL, BASEBALL, SOCCER. All talk and no action period
