With the new rule change, does anybody know if they are using helmets and shoulder pads?
So they have heard of the forward pass at Trinity.
just for fun im interested to see clairton play pgh cc
who won this?
Do you guys realize that a 7 on 7 passing tournament is played without pads and has no hitting? Dont think its a good predictor of future success.....These exercises reward the best athletic teams but just because a kid is hard to defend because he's fast doesnt mean he will translate that to a live game...Its a lot harder for a QB to put the ball on the money with a live pass rush than what he sees during this glorified tag football game...It gets these kids experience but the overall impact of something like a 7X7 game is overrated in my opinion....
