[Blackcat 4 Life]

I haven't had a chance to get on here in a couple of weeks, but the Blackcats sure surprised me Friday night. I like the fact that Hager is running a style of offense that suits his personal. He doesn't have a big strong experienced line, but he is running plays that are quick in nature and it isn't giving the opposing defensive line, time to react. When Adams is cleared it will help tremendously, but he is doing what he needs to do by eating the clock and wearing the defense down. I thought Leslie looked the part, but they weren't very well coached. The kid that transferred from Perry Central should have gotten 15-20 touches, regardless if it's in the manner of rushing or receiving. He was too good of an athlete to get minimal touches.

Defensively, we looked much better than the Shelby Valley game, I question some of the personnel, but at this point we don't have a lot to work with. Overall, they bent, but didn't break and that's all you can ask for at this point. I thought Patton and Stumbo played well, and some of the young guys showed potential. As far as the final play, it could have very well been pass interference, but if you play and coach enough football, you are going to be on the other end of calls like this. It seems to all even out in the end. Hail Blackcats!
