Winning at the previous level really doesn't mean much when you hit this one. If it did then just go get the best players at every 1A state champ in the south. What matters is how good you are and how good the players around you are. As I said, I'm going to wait and see what we look like against decent opposition.

I think this is completely wrong. Talent is required, but give me a team made up of talented players that have won consistently at a previous level over a team made up of talented players that lost at the previous level.

Whats one thing that all these kids who have never played together have in common? Winning at the previous level.. not being the best player Cullman, AL has seen in a few years. The point is winning is a habit and Howland has gotten not only talent, but talented winners.

You don't think our previous players won in HS?

The one thing these new players all have in common is that they're very talented, which is certainly exciting. I promise you Howland is not on the recruiting trail just scouting state champions.

And I still don't get the Mullen statement. He has mentioned a recruit's winning history and mentality many, many times.

This is my point. Thank you for using your brain.

Fred Thomas, Gavin Ware, Craig Sword, and IJ Ready all won state titles in HS, and Zuppardo won one in JUCO. So what was the point again?
