euponitone Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Losing 50+ ageouts in 2007 might have an effect on their placement in 2008. They lose 40 or 50 every year... Not making a prediction, just saying that this shouldnt be a big deal in and of itself.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
critter Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 The Cadets1990 - 1st 1991 - 6th 1992 - 2nd 1993 - 1st 2005 - 1st 2006 - 5th 2007 - 2nd 2008 - 1st? Interesting, isn't it. I mean, whenever the Cadets have a bad year, they always seem to rebound (2004-2005) (4th-1st), (1999-2000) (4th-1st). Anyone else find this odd? So they will rebound off their bad 2nd place finish this year and get 1st next year? I understand the multi-year assumption of this rebound, but I can't see how a 2nd place finish can really be considered bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I'm scared, my legs are still tired from finals week lol) Losing 50+ ageouts in 2007 might have an effect on their placement in 2008. Please don't make up numbers. You're off by a lot. And they usually have a lot of rookies anyways..... A little more than half of the hornline was. The guard's average age was like 17 or 18, there were a good amount of 16 years olds with like 1/2 rookies i believe. The entire bassline except for one member were all first years. Tenor line was like 1/2 1/2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malambo13 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Please don't make up numbers. You're off by a lot. I got my numbers from an ageout in the bari line, and I have no reason not to believe him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeke Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Thats so odd.I was thinking the exact thing yesterday while driving. I even did the math in my head without wrecking! B)I guess we'll see in 08 P.S is 1992 worth downloading? I've never seen or heard it once! Absolutely..one of Cadets Best Shows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thecadet20012001 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 To note this used to happen to Cavaliers alot in the 90's. They would win and then be guaranteed to be like 4th place the next year or even worse. In fact that is why I did not try out there in 2001. Mike Tarr who marched there for 7 years and taught there for 4 told me the year after they win for whatever reason is usually just kind of weird and sluggish. SO instead I went to Cadets. Had a great time but looks like I was wrong about Cavies being sluggish. LOL As far as Cadets having a bad year then placing 1st or 2nd the next year or next couple of years. I figured it out when I marched there. A vet told me that 2001 was nothing more than en experiment by George. See After Cadets win George tries usually a really push the envelope crazy design show to see if it takes. OR they write a show that is so rediculous hard that the kids are ridding on the edge of killing themeselves and breaking their necks the whole show. Here is a couple of years where this has happened and it is usually following a championship. 91 Cadets pushes the envelope weird design, Then they followed those years with championship type performances because GEORGE just wanted to Win again. Then 1999, Show so rediculous hard kids were almost not making it through it. Hells Kitchen at 230bm. Then 2001. No real show concept just a bunch of tunes and George even said that year he wanted to get away from the whole story telling thing. IF it were not for one of the best hornlines to ever come through Cadets and a rediculous Drumline that won and good M&M we would have been 4th. 2006 Was a show that George pushed with design that people had a hard time following. Now you can argue that 2007 was the same but he added alot more popcorn GE becuase he really wanted to win. They will be 1st or 2nd until next year at worse 3rd and only out of 2nd by a couple of tenths. They will not be 4th or 5th again until after they win. Thats the Year George will try another experiment. I don't know thats just my take Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
