Prospectus for Fogies football team shows mixed talent
The Fogies face a long season with questions at quarterback and receivers. Normen Sneed remains a long shot prospect with few wins, while George Mire keeps him in position. Receivers like Ben Hewkins and Kent Lawrence supply speed and depth, rookie Steve Zobel challenged at tight end, and running back Cyril Pinder should pair with Leroy Kayes as Harry Jones and Harry Wilson provide ready substitutes. Defense centers on Jim Ressovich and Ren Porter with Adrien Young and Tony Guillory as supporting linebackers. Secondary seeks help from Al Neteen and Jas Reve as depth and health determine success. Kicking relies on Bredhey and Sem Beher as Moseley refines the unit. Prediction puts the team fourth in the division, a cautious stance for a possibly five-win season.
