<<<<<<<<<<<<

If you recall them, please list the ball handlers for the 2000 team that played Ike in the Semi Finals at Groves (?)

Didn't that team feature a passing attack?

edit: "handlers"

Foggy, that playoff game v Troy was a total enigma. I remember bringing an out of state relative to that game, after describing to him "CC" football and the smashmouth ground game. The snow was coming down in barrels, yet CC comes out throwing the ball. Not just throwing, but throwing it vertical with great success. What a great game! Go figure! lol

Foggy and Blue - CC's tight end have typically been where they have thrown the ball successfully, which is why I did not mention the above names (Brezinski, Slankster, etc.). You could fill pages with the success they have had throwing to the TE (Kosmowki, Gilbo, Wandzel, McGrath, etc, etc, etc, etc) It was in the years that I mentioned above that they had success throwing the ball vertically to their wides, which we all have to admit is "out of the norm". If memory serves, Hauncher also had equal success throwing the deep crossing (dig) routes, ie the playoff game v Sterling Heights.

Then again, every school in the league has had its alums get in trouble in the football arena someway, somehow.

Having been a part of the CC football program in the mid to late 1990s I am interested in additional information regarding this steroid issue. If you do not want to post it here please send me a private message or an email to DCL90s@yahoo.com

It was more conjecture than anything else - I don't recall any specific names.

CC's back to back title teams in 97 and 98 both featured a great passing games (for CC's standards) --- both Tubaro and Lusky threw for approximately 1,200-1,400 yards on the season.

Tubaro had some great targets such as Slankster and Brzezinski at tight end and Joe Saah and Joe Jonna at wide out.

Lusky had Brzezinski back as well as a solid #2 tight end in Matt Loridas -- and Derek Anderson (big td catch against Rockford) and Jason Woehlke (big td catch against Troy) and Justin Cessante out of the backfield/wing.

Kay,
You are probably right, I believe Don Slankster was on that Adam Tubaro team. He was their TE and caught a lot of big passes that year. Remember that late TD pass Joe Jonah caught in that snow game at Troy? That was my favorite CC Team...a bunch of great kids that worked hard and believed in themselves.

In recent memory memory, CC most potent passing attacks came with the following QB's and their respective recievers.

Scott Hauncher to Chris Johnston and I believe Jerry Rioux
Adam Tubaro to Joe Jonah and Saah (do not remember first name)

Just like I was shocked when no one would admit to reading signals from the Chain Gang guy.

Shocked, I tell you. Shocked.

CC does not paraticipate in 7 on 7 passing tournaments. They went to a MSU passing event a few years ago for one day but that's it. Coach Mach doesn't believe they are that worthwhile for his team. Last year he used a more multiple offensive approach and plans to do the same this year but if the line improves as much as he believe it will, then plan on a pounding game with passing used more freely this year.

Does CC participate in any 7 on 7 tournaments? I've never seen them at any events. Maybe the passing game isn't that important to their offense.

If they do participate, how do they do. It's hard to think of a CC team without a running game.

When was the last time that CC ran a multiple offense and relied heavily on a passing game? It might go back to Bill Downs in 1960. Although, I think Downs was more of a running threat than passing, but he had a pretty good arm.

Is CC still running S&C through the summer?

I know it's off season and things are a little slow, but why are all of you engaging this DC jerk. Searn, it's better to just delete his posts and hope that he goes away. Hasn't anyone learned that you cannot have serious dialog with this guy. It still bothers me that he is a Wolverine. I didn't realize that stupidity and immaturity qualify for affirmative action admission at UM.

Wrong!!! Can't do it dallas!

You can't make baseless accusations, repeatedly, and just a few posts ago, and then wash your hands. Grow a set and back up your allegations.

Oh. You can't? What a surprise.

It is reported on the lunatic forum aka Mlive (myself included in those loonies) that longtime AD Robert Santello is retiring. Mlive FB East forum topic 59044.

I confirmed this independently from someone who would be in position to know.

It was reported there is a committee gearing up to look into his successor. This was also confirmed. I don't know how long this process will take, but I am guessing that a new AD will be announced within a month as they are wasting little time getting the process underway.

Mr. Santello, many thanks for all your years at CC. That is quite a legacy you built upon and left your mark upon.
