Mt Airy goes into this season, in my very humble opinion, with a lot excellent pieces, some known, some unknown.
I have said previous that I believe three things:
1. how long does it take for the team to jell. A new but known at QB. RB's that may be as good as the last couple of years if not better (believe it or not but I think YES, even odds on being better).
The question that has to be answered is; will the current Gallimore possess or develop the same leadership posture that the former Gallimore had? If yes, the Bears are going to be in full feeding mod.
2. I feel sure the overall defense will be tough on everybody. But will it be lock down mean, with pride? That answer most likely will depend on the strength of the secondary. Revels and Stroup are going to be very hard to replace. To me that is the real team, make or break, question.
Line and LB's are OMG good! for a 1A, 2A, school.
3. Every one I know in Mt Airy was very happy with the selection of the new Head Coach. However, as good as this young man appeared, as good as he clearly was as Number 2,
