And I don't think anyone's expectations were a district championship or even the playoffs, but 60-21 to a 1a......  Really unexpected. All I read in the newspapers were how they were going to be consistently successful and go beyond just making it to state. And this head coach hangs his hat on his defense. It looks like some bad years ahead for Kelly.

In response to Kellybasketball. I love all the excuses. I hope you keep them coming for the next two years. No one ever gave Coach Long all these built in excuses. The offense is only returning a qb that threw for 2000 yards and 20 Tds. A Soph tackle who started last year and a guard who who was all district and another guard who started last year. And a tb who had two 100 yard rushing games including one in the playoffs. I thought the defensive guru would get the defense right considering he has last years DC still on staff and returns an all state DE. The staff is the same minus 3 coaches. I did see that Frank Middleton who coached there last year put up 43 points this week as the OC at kountze. Why didn't Kelly hire him instead of the defensive guru who gave up 60 against a 1a?

Magic you are amazing. Even in the down years with Long, when they didn't have much , they NEVER lost 60-21 period!  Much less to a 1a school. Last year all you did was criticize Kelly's offense who scored almost 42 pts a game and now you defend this. It's very clear you don't know much about football. So much for that attacking 3-4 defense.

Is Korby saying this staff is better than last years? He must have graduated with Holmes. Kelly has more than 1 receiver. There is still plenty of talent at Kelly. The question is can the new coaches develop it? Time will tell. Holmes came into a good situation, all of Kelly is doing all they can to help him succeed and because they went to State last year, there has been more kids come out for football than ever.

No one is going to mention Caleb Ceasar "the crowd pleaser"?

"lectric" Leeland McElroy. Him , Jamal Charles, Christine Michaels , Jerry LeVias and Joe Washington are up there if not the best to come out of this area.

Who is the best coach magic? You always seem to know 

Yeah those aren't good numbers for one game, much less for a whole season. Don't see any colleges beating on his door to throw the ball. Hell of a kid and football player though.

Let me put it this way. I've seen a lot of teams do much more with less.

The liberty team from last year was one of the most talented 3a teams I have ever seen. They had like 5-6 kids over 6"5 and athletes to go with it. Dline was huge oline was huge. It doesn't make any sense they were not better than they were.

How did Liberty get the jv qb from st Pius ? I have seen him play a few times and he isn't even in the same ballpark as fitzwater. He throws like a jv qb.

Yeah just relax because that is the coaches attitude too. They tried to fix the cosmetics by getting a new oc and dc but the problem is the head coach. In year 4 they look worse than they did in year 2.

I hope they have a lot of D3 schools on the schedule. That didn't even look like a college football team.

This makes no sense. Can someone translate this?

What does this have to do with Barbay being the next coach? Is that final yet?
