bushpilot Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 Big kid at the gym in Liberty is John Stelly, starting fullback at I believe Eastern Oklahoma State, also Mitch Villemez, outside linebacker at Blinn, had a nice 95 yard interception return for a TD last week in their scrimmage. Stelly was on the Miami Dolphins watch list last year on their web site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garrison went on to blow everybody else out. Harrison Gray sat on the sidelines when he should have seen some time on defense as a safety or linebacker too much talent to waste. If Larry Haynes had that team who knows what numbers they could have put up with those skill kids.[/quote]No offense... but YALL are talking about Hardin winning playoff games and having awesome athletes. lol. H-D has had hundreds of awesome athletes that could have played for Eastern Dakota St. or where ever Stelly plays. Truth of the matter is, if you make good grades and are a serious worker in the weight room, you can play college football. Maybe not D-1, but you can play at an Eastern Alaska St. There just is not that many of those kids out there, Stelly is one. [/quote]You know its sad when a person has to dog a kid to attempt to make there school look better, never discredited any player from HD becaue they have had some great ones just asked if any were still in college. And know not all kids can play D-2 football, if you look into the NFL lots of kids that are missed by D-1 schools because they dont take time to recruit small schools because of the number of athletes to look at is so small. Good luck to both schools will be pulling for Coach Slack this year, not to excited about the Hornet program right now. Not saying I'm defecting just not excited.

Which would be the last time Hardin had teams where they played Offense, Defense and Special teams and were extremely successful at all three of those aspects of the game.Has Hardin has good defenses and offenses since? Yes. But not at the same time, on one team.Pay attention to Hardin football better, or do not comment on this thread if you aren't familiar with the history of the program.[/quote]Hardin had size and talent back then but skill players were being played out of position. Dont think they were any better or worse than the 2007/2008 team. Depth is always a problem and Hardin was not 3 dimensional in 2000-2002, they were good and if they hadn't blown a lead over Garrison they would most likely won a state championship that year.
