It all starts tonight in the great state of WA!
Our young team travels 3 hours across state for our opener! A lot of nervous excitement. We won't be a juggernaut after losing 15 starting Seniors, but we like out young bunch.
Feel like Forest Gump opening a box a chocolate. Not quite sure what we are going to get. There's a lot of talent, but anytime you but that many first time juniors and 4 or 5 sophomores out there theres bound to be some bumps.
Good luck to everyone in their openers tonight! Play hard, stay healthy!

First week for most of us Iowa high schools as well. Considering we have a new head coach a new offense and a new defensive philosophy, I'm as calm as I can remember for a game day. Other than the day of the state championship game back in high school.
What's eating at me:
1. Our parents are old school. Our offense is NOT. No huddle, five wide all the time. As all we see is 44s and 53s it could be a interesting year.
2. No huddle with questionable depth makes me nervous. We're in great shape- but I don't know if we're in great game shape.
3. My starting strong safety was sick yesterday. My backup strong safety is also my backup Free safety. My backup free safety is also my backup Will.

Season opened in Kansas tonite. We were able to pull off a 28-14 victory after a very slow start. Since we are not allowed to scrimmage other schools we now know what we really need to work on. Hope all you coaches were successful tonite.
