Yeah this yr's freshman class will have no effect on next yr's season, unless a couple of surprise kids step up and make them better. They will still better the tomcats by 14 or more. They only lose 3 starters on D, and 4 on O i think, maybe 5. As always at Russell there are very good atheletes to fill spots. now after next year, things could get rough, neither the soph or frosh class are very deep. Rough for Russell standards. Still be as good as the Tomcats were this year.

It may not have an immediate impact next season, but trust me it will have an effect. Ashlands senior class from this year went winless as freshman and that definitely contributed to their 2-8 record. When you have an entire class that is just less talented it is hard to overcome....
