Pitt is playing well, we will have to wait and see, the out come, cause DV hasnt played anyone with that Pitt speed, similar to theirs, I predict Pitt, they need to make the playoffs.

fast and physical i am a DLS alum and fan first, but I have a lot of respect for what Coach Carter has done at both Mack and now Berkeley. He has shown a true passion for helping his players move on to the next level in tough areas. Not only that but he produces winning football teams. My guess is this is his best Berkeley team ever. If Pitt wins BVAL my guess is B-High is a three seed.

i said a few weeks ago that b-high deserves respect for trying to beef up the schedule and that unfortunately they have no control over how good those teams would be when they played but these teams are not the same. Ponderosa did beat Grant in 2007 but this is 2009 and they are 1-6. Freedom advanced to the NCS playoffs last year but they are 0-6. Castro Valley has been consistently mediocore but last year were 2-8 and this year 1-5. And Pitt is not as strong as last year. no doubt they are still dangerous and watch out for them come playoff time and it was a solid win for b-high but they are 3-3 including a spanking by MV. not the same team as last year. it’s not disrespecting the team just pointing out facts. i bet they will be higher this year especially if Pitt wins the BVAL.

renegades10 I know you support us, and relizes we changed our schedule, the best way we could, all we can do is wait and get hated on, like the passed two years by the ncs committee. One ex Monte Vista player, whos dad was a longtime coach with Coach Stockberger, and the asian gentlemen who is also on the committee, who refrees most of DeLaSalles home game, their is major politics with the seeding committee, Jimmy D was in the seeding meeting, its not fair, when all the EBAL coaches team up against all the other leagues. I played in the EBAL, and know it is superior, maybe its time to change these leagues up, where big schools play big, medium size, play medium, and small, plays small, and a open division, play open! stop giving teams respect on what league they in, or their past accomplishments, cause mark my words, Berkeley will shock the bay, in the Playoffs, Lets Wait and see, good luck to everyone, Im running with Rickey G, Cream of the Crop, Player of the Year

kyle B-high schedule teams to improve on the vote. could it be possible that b-high is playing better,and everyones favored teams are about the same,b-high has exposed many teams. they didn’t take on any oal teams,saint marys,d-2 or d3, they took on d-1 teams that were playoff bound the past years, ponderosa beat grant in the 2007 playoffs. B-high has for the last
three years has ask to be moved to the haal. Some things are not in there control. Many of the schools
in the ebal, bval,their head coaches are either teachers or ads, this brings some stability to those progams. most oal, accal teams are coached by off campus coachs and are subject to school district budject’s. carter took a down program and turned it around. so give what he and his kids have done the respect they deserve.JUST THINK WHAT TYPE OF PROGRAM
BERKELEY HIGH FOOTBALL WOULD LOOK LIKE IF COACH ALONZO CARTER HAD THE DISTRICT BACKING THAT THE EBAL, BVAL coaches have .Dls beat every team in playoffs by 40. league champion and overall record shoul be the bases for seeding. yes 9-1 8th seed how disrespectful regardless of the results, that was last year.

The schedule definitely matters. B-High was 9-1 last year and go the No. 8.

Cal was 6-4 and got the No. 6 and SRV was 7-3 and got the No. 7.

actually the records of berkeley’s opponents played so far this season are 10-35-1 and they have their toughest stretch coming up when the combined record of their last three opponents is 10-7 with two opponents having winning records. fast and physical i am not doubting that b-high has a talented team this year but you can’t make a comment that they should be #1 when their best win is against Pitt. they should be top four maybe even three but remember the seeding committee looks at the schedule played too. berkeley’s resume just isn’t that impressive this year. they are going to run the table in the regular season and get seeded pretty high but not 1.

E they 7-0 had that zero week, hardest weeks to get ready for DeAnza, and Richmond, been preparing for El Cerrito for two weeks now, they do alot popping and no way the real coach carter wont be ready for them, they disrespected the jackets by scheduleing the jackets for their Homecoming!
