2008 football players

[hardcorefan]

what players should the GR look out for 2008 season for all teams ??

[boobiemiles]

i have heard that this chris williams kid from oakfield is a beast! i don't think there's anybody who will be able to stop him next year

[Section5sportsguy]

Yeah Williams will be real good. Look out for David Klecker of Pembromke next year at QB, he's good. Ruddock of Attica and Dibble of Pembroke are gonna be good.

[ftbllkd31]

Ken Babcock will also be a serious threat at tight end and d end for pembroke especially will klecker passing to him

[Berask]

If ND can find someone to throw him the ball, Kevin Francis will be an unbelievable receiver during his senior year. He is an elusive kid who can outrun anyone you throw at him.

I've heard rumors that Schildwaster will move to QB

[xxlvbball]

will he be able to handle it?

[Section5sportsguy]

What about lil Bocchicchio?

[hilly]

What about lil Bocchicchio?



i don't know lil bochicchio. i have heard schildwaster. how old is lil bochicchio?

[xxlvbball]

i think hes a sophomore, he started for the jv's...lacks his brothers size, but throws a nice ball and put up some big numbers down there

[ndfan79]

Yes Lil Bo Is Undersized But The Game I Saw He Looked Better At Times Than His Brother. Made Good Choices.

i cant say this kid would be good what i have seen from him this year was not that good his brothers were a lot better

[Maddox08]

i cant say this kid would be good what i have seen from him this year was not that good his brothers were a lot better

He's the real deal. His brothers were great players too - hard core football all the way! I have a lot of respect for them all, great bunch of boys! Best of luck Chris for your senior year of ball - knock em dead!

[ducej11]

there are a couple of kids that from watching are primed for great years next year, Dustin Dillard from C-C, and Christian Boley from Brockport. Look for big years from them next year.

i never said he was bad hes good . but he is not as good as his brothers

[xxlvbball]

his brother improved his decision making through each of his years, and the kid had great physical tools. I think they both have bright futures at the position.

[xxlvbball]

and for the record, chris williams is a monster...

[footballman]

Chris Williams is as good or better then his brother Eric. And for John he was very tough but was coached by different coaches who were not as disciplined, as Dowd and his staff. If you talk to John he will tell you, if he was coached by the new staff mostly for defense that his defense would of been much better.

[hardcorefan]

what about tim smith ?

[hardcorefan]

hey anyone no any good player . going any where ??? or getting looked at ?

[BogeyPro]

Schildwaiser (sp?) was usually the guy doing mop-up duty at QB this year so I would expect him to start but my daughter told me that the general buzz around ND is L'il Bo has the potential to be everything his brother was. Doesn't have his brother's size or arm but perhaps a better all-around athlete.

Kevin Francis is definitely a marque-type player, he makes everyone else around him better but someone else to keep an eye on is Mike Pratt. Started every game this year as a freshman & he just looks like a player.

I can't define what it is that I see but let me give you an example. I'm not comparing him talent-wise to Karl Geise, but the first game I saw Karl play he stood out becasue he looked like a player and carried himself like a player.

He obviously knew what his assignments were and if he wasn't usually the best player on the field ("O" or "D") at any given moment then was somewhere in the top 2 or 3.

I get the same feeling watching Mike Pratt play, he finishes his runs, blocks well & has excellent hands and he's always around the ball on defnese.

[Section5sportsguy]

Thanks for the info, pratt.

Watch out for Craig Campbell too, he was a state all-star as a sophomore along with Williams, but he did not play last year. But watch out GR, he's gonna come back with something to prove during his senior season. Noah Seward is going to be just as much, if not more of a threat from the tight end position than Babcock from Pembroke, and he made GR all-stars from defensive end, so i have a feeling some of these other GR quarterbacks are gonna become pretty used to laying on their backs this season. And all you really have to say is Chris Williams, senior year, and that should scare you right there. And dont forget about A.J. Kehlenbeck, he had to adjust to playing quarterback at the varsity level fairly quickly, and he did a very nice job. We have many other seniors who were GR all-stars last year and will be looking to add to that this year. This season we have a special team, and with the coaching of the football mastermind, Coach Dowd, OA could be looking at a sectional title run, and possibly more.

[BombeRLV56]

Just trowin out some names thats all so ER haters dont jump down my throat or anything please. But neal Dotterer has started every game as QB sense he was a sophmore. And got Player of the year. Also on that ER team keep your eyes open for Marshal Cowey from ER (DE and OL) who was also in the running for player of the year. East Rochester should have a decent team next year. Good Luck to all teams.

[xxlvbball]

yea any word on other gr or sec V prospects? I only know stuff about the nd kids, but i'd like to know where everyone else is standing.

Why dfidnt Campbell play this year?

[boobiemiles]

Why dfidnt Campbell play this year?
he said he wanted to work.

[Section5sportsguy]

he said he wanted to work.

Unbelievable. This kid is an all state lineman as a sophomore, it is inexcusable for him to waste his talents like that.

[TurnTwo]

what about tim smith ?

Haha, that kid's football days are over.

[hardcorefan]

Haha, that kid's football days are over.


well idk . we will just have to see what happens next yr

[BogeyPro]

section5sportsguy: I'm not Mike Pratt. My daughter is an ND cheerleader & I watched the kid play all year & I was impressed with his play, his smarts, and his contribution as a freshman ... he will only get better.

who are you talking about ?

[BogeyPro]

Thanks for the info, pratt.

Just replying to section5sportsguy's comment, it sounded like he though I was Mike Pratt.

[BogeyPro]

That's right, my ex moved to Batavia 5-6 yrs ago.

alritght that makes sense

[hardcorefan]

leys not get off football now come on

[Section5sportsguy]

Attica's RB Ruddock should have a big year, but we'll have to wait and see about their line, who is losing 5 starters. They should contend because they got the core of their undefeateed JV team from two years ago plus about 5 other players that were on varsity at that time.

I don't think they will repeat last years succesful season.

[RepTheV]

ND looks to have a great team on paper next year they are bringing back some serious talent in shillie francis housenect lair. a lot of jounior support last year will put nd in a good spot come fall

[Section5sportsguy]

Hmmm....

Right now, Id say

1. Oakfield-Alabama
2. Attica
3. Pembroke
4. Notre Dame
5. Elba
6. Alexander
7. Barker

First of all you butchered Houseknecht.

Second, you're team is missing one thing, a quarterback.

[hardcorefan]

1. Oakfield-Alabama

3. Pembroke
4. Notre Dame
5. Elba
6. Alexander
7. Barker

what brings you to the conclusions

[bzzrbeater]

Pembroke will be just as lethal next year as they were next year. Mike and Jared will be impossible to replace, but our line will be the biggest, most athletic, and talented group that we've had in a while. Returning 4 of 6 starting lineman and putting a 6'2" 220lb-er and a 5'10" 220lb-er from jayvees in the remaining spots, our running backs will have huge holes to run through. Dibble is a hard runner, Kleckler throws a great ball, and two players from jv, Josh Phillips and Anthony Bosse, will fill out change of pace back and fullback, respectively. Not to mention, Drew Wright, whose brother was an eddie Meath All-Star @ Batavia, will be a great target for Kleckler. He'll also compliment this huge, sure-handed TE they have. His name escapes me....hah

Overrated...Attica will win. Your arrogance is your downfall, Babby. "Pembroke will be just as lethal next year as they were next year." Nice phrasing, I thought you were an honor student.

[PembrokeFan45]

The main reason you guys had a good team was because of your strong line. If your really losing all 5 starters that will be very tough to overcome.

[hardcorefan]

ok ppl come on if u play for the team u wont say they are going to losse each person will post there team is the best. lighten up and recognize other teams . there are a lot of players on other teams . i belive are good

[Section5sportsguy]

I think O-A will go undefeated, they return way to much. Pembroke will be strong too, as Jensen is a great player.

[Berask]

Undefeated is a long shot.

[pittsfordfootball8791]

phil boyar from pittsford, he deadlifted 515 pounds as a junior, hes a down hill runner and people are going to be afraid to tackle him because he will hurt you.

[boobiemiles]

Undefeated is a long shot.
i disagree. state champs. not even kidding. i think next years team has a 10% chance to win the state championship next year. pretty good for being in the same class as dobbs and leroy.

i don't think it's that big of a long shot, being the only really tough game should be pembroke. elba, nd, alexander, and attica will be formidable, and barker is barker

Ehh still. I think although you'll be good.... you will get beat sometime lol. I also think the Patriots are going to get beat.

haha yeah. i don't usually proofread my forum posts. sorry about that don, and it's not arrogance, it's confidence. I never compared our team to anyone else, but I was rather stating that Pembroke will still be formidable with the losses of McKenrick and Dent.

[boobiemiles]

10%!!! haha. it still give 90% of getting a loss. i just feel that this team next year has a good chance of going all the way, and i think 10% was the best way to say it.... and i hope the pats lose!

[Berask]

You know im just playing around Ken. I respect your abilities and your teams.

I agree with RepTheV. ND next year will be stacked. Next years team brings to the table a lot of talent and team chemistry. Along with Francis, Schildwaster, Houseknecht, Lair, and Pratt, many players who were unable to prove themselves this year will step up for the Irish. With an expected line of Juniors Cam MacDonald and Tommy Rapone and Seniors Justin Shenck, Craig Houseknecht, Brad Cohen, and Rick Lair at TE, the very talented backs (likely Francis and Pratt) will have plenty of holes to run in. Look for the passing game to step down a notch due to uncertainties at the QB position. This year's team will be more Run-Balanced, but will still be a competetor in the GR League.

You're right about one thing. Brad Cohen is a tank. He can bench press over 400 lbs and squat over 1000 lbs. This kid will blow everyone off the line next year and will completely dominate the entire nation in pancakes.

Are you serious? That is insane. Thats quite a bit more than the all time records at OA

[Berask]

No I'm not serious lol.

But I am serious about this...

Brad Cohen has gotten a lot stronger and might be able to make an impact next season for ND.

lol every devotete player will try extreamly hard to help there team . but every team has on. just some have more and they are the oneces that win

[GRFan63]

I don't really know what you're trying to say, but the whole team is working extremely hard and should be a force to reckon with next year.

[xxlvbball]

this is gunna sound pompous coming from me, but its true and i dont mean it in that way...but qb is going to be a lot bigger issue than everyone thinks for nd...no one besides myself has taken a snap in the last 3 yrs...the mental aspect of the game is just as important as the physical, and i called a lot of audibles and my own plays. That being said, if schillie does move to qb, look for more option...a lot more option...
