The start of the 2015 prep football season is nearing closer every second.

Some things your boy Burney is looking most forward to;

The bubbling volcano known as the Brother Rice offense (cue The Golden God aka The Human Highlight Zone, OG Bobby Dixon, Delano "The Flash" Madison, Grant "Grind Time" Perry, etc)

The C-Town Wolfpack repeat……YEAH, IT's GONNA HAPPEN!

The TEAM SOFRAN 4peat….Ditto!!

That everlasting Catholic Central ground-and-pound......SMASHMOUTH PERSONIFIED over in ROCKNATION, as always....proceed, boys, proceed!!

All that Blue Chip talent at OL St. Mary's this fall.......all I can say is WOW!!

AH Avondale speedster and Cinci-commit Josh Holloman going all JOSH HOLLOMAN!!! Fastest Grid Specimen the OC has seen in a long, long time!!

Southfield, Oak Park, RH Adams & FH Harrison fighting it out for the crown in the OAA White, the area's most competitive league top-to-bottom....YEAH I SAID IT!!

Pontiac NDP's "Mr. Double-Barrel" himself Anthony Gunn, a kid that is so, so cool he lives on the other side of the pillow

Our area's STERLING sophomore class, chalk full with prospects that define the term ELITE!! Maybe the best group of tenth-graders the OC has witnessed in well more than a decade.....MARK THAT DOWN!!!
