But the 2020 & 2021 Irish are so far above the rest of 5A. There is a reason the casual observer is looking to week #9 (CG vs Cathedral) and not week 10 and beyond.

Blame that on former Commission Bobby Cox.

You seem to forget that 2020 was Cathedral's first trip downtown during Thanksgiving weekend since 2014.  Things happen in football, especially high school football, and sometimes it ain't all good.  Cathedral lost a sectional game, while highly favored, to Roncalli when the Irish fumbled the ball 6 times, all by seniors.  It's never a given.  And teams can play "up" on a given night.  Too many examples of that to list here.

Also you seem to forget that it was Bobby Cox himself who put Cathedral in 5A when they should have been in 4A.

 

 

Agreed...and sadly, injuries at a couple of key spots can change the direction of a season.  Health and sometimes pure luck is always needed and appreciated.  

Regarding your last sentence...we agree in numbers only.  But in quality of play, year in and year out, Cathedral does not seem like a 4A team...not by a long shot.

I thought the same thing.  I have never seen a field so dark. Don't forget about Junior #21 with 50 yards on 7 carries.  He hits the hole faster than any back on Cathedra's team

 

no he does not. Mencer is the best running back on the team and it is not a question.
