I agree to a point, but it's truly remarkable the changes a boy can make to his body from 13-18. If kids are dedicated to a strength and conditioning program run by a dedicated and knowledgable staff, athletes can be built.

Culture also has a lot to do with it. Why is Hutchinson, a non-metro school of under 800 kids, always a power in football? A culture of excellence was created a long time ago, I assume by Grady Rosberg as well as an influential group of parents. The culture has continued with his son. Since...

The Class 6A 5/4 and 3/6 games are: (my guesses in bold) 5 Prior Lake @ 4 Mounds View 6 Blaine @ 3 Rosemount 5 Champlin Park @ 4 Shakopee 6 East Ridge @ 3 Anoka 5 White Bear Lake @ 4 Eagan 6 Wayzata @ 3 Forrest Lake 5 Rochester Mayo @ 4 St. Michael- Albertville 6 Farmington @ 3 Edina

Prior Lake is 4-4 in the toughest district in the state. They have beaten Forest Lake and Woodbury, gave Eden Prairie a great game (was tied in the fourth), and lost to Minnetonka on a missed PAT. To say they are "not good at all" is a stretch. Mounds View has lost 2 of their last three...

Anyone see a team that should be on upset alert for round 1 of the 6A Playoffs? I think Mounds View as a higher seed versus Prior Lake is a clear one.

In 6A, I'd prefer to see the top 16 be placed in the state tournament (Yes, there would be controversy) and have the remaining 16 get one more game against a team ranked similarly. It would be a much better way for the seniors at say, Burnsville to have their last game against Roseville than...

I don't disagree with you there. There are Minnesota high schools, many in the Lake and South Suburban that have enrollment and demographic advantages that make schools like Hopkins, Osseo, and Burnsville virtually impossible to meet those teams' level of competitiveness. However, each...

Chanhassen has a great shot to win the state title in 5A, they would not win it in 6A (Yes, they would be a top ten team, I'm not hating). Is it fair to take that from them and negate all their hard work because they are having success in the enrollment range they are assigned to? I'd be more...

Having seen both play, EP is just too physical. No disrespect to Tonka, but I don't see this one being close with Tonka's very talented QB out.
