Starfire

Exactly...if Miller was on an SAC team in Fort Wayne ...he would have a lot more offers from some bigger schools. Plus with Covid, recruiting is definitely different this year.

Miller is a legit 6-4 and 235-240lbs. Definitely has room to put on more muscle in college. Has great hands and speed for his size. I believe he would be better suited at TE in college and not DE. Don’t think he would be big enough to be an edge rusher. Miller has some more versatility in the high school game. He was used as the HB last week when Summersett tweaked a knee. Him and Timmy Davidson (senior DE) comes in on goal line situations to block. Thanks for the clarification on that. I don’t know how all of that works. I guess I pay more attention to college basketball. Arnold is very intellectual. I think he scored a 1500 on the SAT and will be valedictorian of his class. Shouldn’t have a problem with Ivy League if that’s what he chooses. But I could see Arnold going to a D2 school or smaller. WR Drew Stutzman has already committed to St Francis in Ft Wayne.

Nah I don’t care. She would never say go Stars either. Lol And my in-laws still call SA people “Cheesers” 🤦🏻‍♂️

Haha my wife graduated from AC and I, obviously, from SA. We live outside of Adams County now so it’s pure fandom for us 😆

Ha! If my kids went to AC, I don’t think I could ever say Go Jets

Go Starfires!

It will be weird hearing them try to be unbiased 😂

Miller has had visits to IU, Toledo, Western Michigan, Northern Illinois, but offers from only smaller schools. Arnold has interest from Columbia in the Ivy League and Butler, both Div 1. Obviously Butler is Div 1 AA. And visited Southern Illinois. Smaller schools like St Francis, Marian, etc have interest as well. Arnold is more mobile than you think, rushed for over 50 yds and a TD vs a very fast Southwood team. It’s just not his MO.

I think that’s fair. Obviously anything goes in these games. LCC will have to score early and often like Southwood did last week. But extend it into the second half, unlike Southwood did. SA scored 3 touchdowns within the last 2 mins of the 1st half. But I think the inexperience of SA in these late playoff games is something that shouldn’t be overlooked either.

Well don’t trust Harrell too much...they had SA 3 score dogs to Lewis Cass in week 2 and SA won like 55-7 🤷🏼‍♂️

This definitely going to be a great game. As a former player at SA, I’m happy the Starfires played Southwood last week. SW was a very fast and athletic team and could pass very effectively. LCC may have issues with SA’s defensive line. Miller, Gorney, Gilbert can all rush the passer with strength and speed. Plattner, Kahn, and Summersett are very good LBs. SA is definitely not your typical 1A team as far as size and talent go. Arnold at QB 6-3 210, Miller at TE/DE 6-4 240, Stutzman and Wanner both 6-2 180. If Miller or Arnold played at a larger school, they would be getting Div 1 offers. Can’t wait to watch tomorrow night. Hopefully SA can pull this one off!

I’m an SA alum and have former teammates that are the current coaches. SA is the real deal. To have the athletes they do on this team, coming from a small rural community is very rare. But they aren’t unbeatable. Strengths: SIZE! Arnold (QB) is 6-3, 210. Miller (TE/DE) is 6-4 240. WRs Stutzman and Wanner are both 6-2 and around 180. And they are all fast. Seniors...they have 16 of them and many have started 3-4 seasons. Weaknesses ACAC conference was terrible again this year. Other than SA, AC, and perhaps Bluffton...all were awful to be honest. But doesn’t take away from SA’s talent. Penalties! Against AC, where they won 29-9, SA committed 16 penalties. Mostly false starts and holding. I’m very nervous for this game though. This is probably our last legit shot at a state title for a long time. LCC seems like they have the tools to win this game. Just hoping the Starfires come out victorious! Good luck to both teams!
