Recruits @ TCU Game

Wow that's surprising considering all the hype and offers. Just a case of schools copying each other without proper evaluation?
Maybe posted before but Duggan’s team, unranked Council Bluffs Lewis Central, defeated #3 WDM Valley, in the state playoffs last Friday:
Titans take down Valley in overtime

Valley is the largest school in Iowa. Lewis Central is the smallest school in 4A, and I believe goes back to 3A, next year I think.
I don’t follow closely, but Duggan was hurt early on this season, maybe the first game, and then missed a game or two as a result.
Per the article, Duggan and his teammates play Ankeny Centennial next, in Ankeny, to determine who moves on to the state semifinals at the UNI-Dome. So I imagine a few people reading this will see him this Friday.

From a DM Register article today on the Centennial - Lewis Central game Friday:

“Expectations for the Jags this season were high, but following a 34-7 loss to Southeast Polk, Centennial was 2-2 and facing a crossroads in its season entering district play.
“Six weeks later, the Jags look like a different team. Following a 5-0 run through District 2 (outscoring its foes 227-46) and a 31-21 first-round playoff win over Waukee, the Jaguars might be the hottest team in 4A.
“Centennial (8-2) will host Lewis Central (9-1) Friday night with another trip to the state semifinals and the UNI-Dome on the line.
““We’re very pleased,” Pezzetti said. “We beat a great team and we knew we’d have our hands full tonight. We got some breaks early and capitalized from them. Our kids played fast, they played hard, we’re healthy for the first time since Week 2 and we’re excited going forward next week to have a chance to be at home again.”
“Lewis Central will be a formidable foe. The Titans feature one of the state’s top recruits in quarterback Max Duggan, who has offers from Iowa, Iowa State and a host of SEC programs. They upset West Des Moines Valley 21-14 in overtime and ride a five-game win streak into the quarterfinals. Lewis Central’s only loss, a 13-7 defeat to Urbandale, came while Duggan was sidelined with a broken thumb. . . .

I have never had too much interest in HS football playoffs. But following this year and the crap that the Centennial staff has pulled and allowed this year I will forever root against that program while that staff is in place.
Basically helping a kid suspended after week 3 at another school get around open enrollment, etc and not honor the other schools suspension and start playing him mid season. I won't dive into the past legal issues and current issues but it's not a good look for the family of the kid nor the Centennial staff.
