I just heard that Crabs picked up a 15 yr/old out of state FO that puts their old FO guy to shame on the line and on the field. True? If so that’s too bad because I thought their old guy was good but I’m hearing this guy is a huge upgrade. I have no idea about his age but the kid will be the best FO at the 2026 level. Crabs will have the best 1/2 punch at X and with the other additions will be the team to beat in HOCO this year.

Big deal. A 15 year old high school kid playing against 13 year old middle schoolers. Parents must be proud But they start turning 14 this fall, so that’s good. Get over it if you want your kid playing varsity freshman year. Predators has more freshman on varsity than the new Sheriff in town whose sorry that his son couldn't make their team with a holdback hitting the wall ... or someething like that. Correct !!

They have their roster and their coach. ... What turmoil? The institutional fade to mediocrity will take a few years. Other than Predators, they will still dominate.

Investing in sports entertainment, divesting in actual people who coach and play sports for them. Sounds like Corrigan Sports Entertainment.

All these holdback parents are stunads. You’ve got your kid playing against younger less developed players how does that make him better? If your kid is so awesome then have him play his peers. You and your kid are weak! And it shows how these clubs don’t care about true development. They screw over the kids playing at age by robbing them of playing time and they screw the holdbacks by having them play down so they aren’t as challenged. Get some perspective!

2026 are now eighth graders….. next year they will be freshman . Once in high school they will hopefully be playing against juniors and seniors so they might as well get use to playing against older players.

They go as far as to tell them if they don’t, they may need to find a new team. First hand knowledge so save your breath telling me they do not hold these conversations regularly.

If you really believe this then you would have held your kid back until high school.

Crabs doesn’t cut anyone due to lack of talent. Nor do they keep the best kids from tryouts. If they did, they would be better.
They keep the same 16 kids year over year and replace the bottom 4 with whoever the new assistant coach for each team brings with him.
Tryouts for the crabs is just a program fundraiser. Get 50-60 kids to show up and tell them all to pay $50 to tryout.
Pocket $2500-3k per team. Easy money.

Most improved team: 91 Team on decline: Hawks Most overrated: Crabs Team that should be in AAA: Looneys Hawks are in the tweener phase where the kids that have been on the team have maxed out and they will start pulling replacements who have been developed elsewhere, Of course the too few will be amazing, but all of the soft underbelly will get exposed.

They don’t call him Hold m Back Mac for no reason. He needs older, bigger players to overcome his lack of in game coaching skills. He does work you over in 8th grade to hold back while attending BL to do it. It is the culture of the program.

The Predator parents/coaches aren't saying squat. They will be a good program. But none of these teams expect to be elite or compete at elite. HoCO won't let them in their first year of existence anyway. That smack talk is just coming from someone trying to give them a bad reputation. It was funny at first, but getting kinda old now.
I'm more interested in the top AAA teams from last year and bottom Elites. Wonder where they are playing this fall and where the movement will be next spring? HAHA...You said Predator parents and Predator Coaches... Say what will about Predator parents and Predator coaches; but at least they drive slowly in school zones. Maybe its because of the new sheriffs.

Well said! Could not agree more! How bout teaching your kid about rising to the occasion instead of just beating the system! Side note…. Team and “status” is important to some, but I’m about the coaching and my kid improving and bonding with his teammates. That trumps everything in my opinion! What is my son going to remember….. I played for “this team” or…. I made so many great friends, I got so much better as a player and a parson. Food for thought.

Investing in sports entertainment, divesting in actual people who coach and play sports for them. Sounds like Corrigan Sports Entertainment. This is actually very interesting news.

Greed takes precedence over kids. So the guy who has been coaching kids for 20+ years, earning a living yes, but donating a ton of time, and sells his company is "greedy?" Gotcha. He's worked hard to build a good product and sell that commodity. It's what every small business wants to do. Good for Hogan. The kids will be fine.
