Why should I respond to that?  Enjoy watching the playoffs.  

Having st thomas and st peters prep out of NJ on the schedule will most definitely prepare dillard for the playoffs. But what i will say about last year, is that in my personal opinion the lack of tough schedule is not why we lost. Dillard just pick the wrong game to have a bad game. And even then we lost by 6. When youre playing against a heated rival in the playoffs where 14 of your players went to said rival school in the off season. Records go out the window.  In that game vs plantation dillard was in plantation 15 yard line or less 7 times. 4 of those was a turnover on downs instead of taking the points (that was coaching) then one of the possessions late in the 3rd up 14-13 at the 8 yard line on 4th down the qb panicked forced a throw and threw a pick 6. Plantation ended up winning 20-14. In the playoffs its a game of inches. And we didnt take advantage of that. It hurted like a mf and I mean bad. But I believe losing way we did prompted the amount of changes that took place so far this off season. Especially within the coaching staff. 

And to answer ya question the last time dillard hoisted a trophy was in 2020 during the covid year. 

I respect yo take on this bro. I'll say this, one thing bout dillard playing st thomas Aquinas is nothing new. Hell in the 80s and 90s st thomas had to go thru dillard to get where they want to go. Fast forward to the 2000s dillard has played a couple of close games against the raiders while they were top 10 in the nation. Along with playing the likes of chaminade & Miami Central while nationally ranked.  As a program the mystic of a team or as you said their resume cant put fear in yo heart or have you doubting what you have on the other side. If it does you already lost the game before you take the field.  St thomas is who they're which is why the get the respect they rightfully deserve. But on sep 10th at dillard under them lights. The st thomas mystic, their 7 consecutive championships, none of that is gonna matter. What's gonna matter is the team thats better prepared, make the most plays & makes the least amount of mistakes, thats whose gonna win that matchup. Again right now on paper and at their practices dillard is huge, look the part and have talent all over the field. How will all of that come together cine August & will it translate to the field ? That's what we will have to wait and see. But win lose or draw ima always be 10 toes down wit dem panthers. The regular season is just the battle. In the postseason is where is counts & playing to national powerhouses at home in st thomas and st peters prep out of new Jersey is most definitely gonna prepare dillard for the post season.
