:lol: From Andy Walter:

Middletown High quarterback Austin Troyer has verbally accepted a scholarship from Delaware. ... Blue Hen reserves, linebacker Christopher Pierce, QB Noah Sanders and defensive back Steven Rose, Jr., have entered the transfer portal. ... Among players in the portal who said they have been offered scholarships by Delaware are linebackers Ozzie Nicholas (Princeton) and Kyle Taylor (Tarleton State) and defensive back Terrance Spence (Holy Cross). ... The Hens are slated to play at Delaware State in 2024. ... Carty said that, while he’s always looking to improve on how his staff functions, he expects to still call plays for the offense next year. 12/7

Carty should call the plays... I just think he needs an OC to choreograph the pre-week playbook/scheme against the opponent. It's a lot to do that by yourself and also manage the team. It will help with in-game adjustments. Like Andy Reid out in KC, he calls the plays but he has a coordinator help design. Ours truly Matt Nagy knows how that worked. By 2025 we will need one whether it's a promotion in-house or plucked from another program

I don't mind Carty calling the plays, he just needs to come up with better PLAYS on 3rd and 4th and short next year, or his record would be more like 22-4 over his two years instead of the 17-9 that it is. Adjust the offense to the QB you have, don't make him run an offense that doesn't play to his strengths. We will see who stays and who goes in the next month, I like both O'Connor and Marker, and Miniccuci impressed, they all three i think have moxie, so i think we'll be ok at the most important position. All three can throw it well, marker and min can run very well, O'Connor not as much. It will be interesting to see who wins the job in camp next August, or do all 3 play again next year.
