2018 HYPE

Agreed.  There has been nearly zero hype from any corps this pre-season.  

Hype:

  1. (noun) blatant or sensational promotion
  2. (verb) publicize in an exaggerated and often misleading manner

 There used to be a Corps that had a lot of hype between 2000- 2007.

 They liked hype so much, they even decided on that name for themselves : H.Y.P.E.  (  it stood for Hamilton Youth Performing Ensemble )

 H.Y.P.E. was from Ontario, Canada and competed in DCI's Open Class.

 But alas, there is no more " Hype "

 H.Y.P. E. in 2007 :

A bold prediction, but I can see it.

 

Ha. Well and uneducated one, too. I think Mandarins are going to make it in, because I think JW is a genius when it comes to competitive results. So, someone has to fall out, and since I don't want it to be Madison, I had to throw shade at the other Wisconsin corps. Wishing the best to everyone, really.

#TeamWI, haha!

I could see Blue Stars, OR Madison falling out.  

Mandarins are great, but I think that they'll fall in the same trap that Academy did.  After a record/fan favorite summer, they'll fall a bit short.

I hope for the Colts or Troop to rise up again!

I'm seeing 4 out of those 5 corps at my local show late in the season (no Troopers, but Academy will be there). There's a very good chance one of them will be the last corps in Finals and another the first corps out.

Gut says Colts are going to surprise us by being better this year.  Mandarins has potential to be a regular finalist.  I don't see them as one hit wonders.

I'll give you $100 if that happens. Dead serious.

I think they've been a real contender since 2014. (Not including 2016).  Their current Program Coordinator came on in 2016 and we've have seen great progress between his two seasons with the corps.  We'll see if he can get them over that hump they've been climbing for a while now!
