I’m seeing more similarities to Cadets and Cavies rises rather than Madison. You have to assemble the staff to attract the talent and get the results. Staff moves so much today, very few corps have “their staff” for long periods of time. Boston Crusaders also worked to build a foundation for success prior to attracting the new staff. I don’t think you’re going to see a collapse too soon. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And since the end of the Cavaliers 15 year run in 2006, BD has won 7 of the last 12. 58%. Pretty dominant. And, in this 12 years, no other corps has won more than once. So, I would pick BD in 2019. I'll pick the corps with the highest score after all captions are totaled using whatever system DCI is using this year is added together after averages, and after any penalties are subtracted wins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup but also it’s important to mention they were at the other organizations for years and years... opportunity met attitude as an outsider I was personally done wth the egotistical wars ripping the cadets apart and neither caption was so dominant as they warrant pomposity ubering across a parking lot to a brass warm up jmo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoungMusician Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Updated March predictions based mostly on feeling as well as what I’ve about camps this month. 1/2. Bluecoats 1/2. Blue Devils 3. Carolina Crown The Blue Devils, in my opinion, had an off year last year. They weren’t as clean nor did their sound inspire me as much as it usually does. It’s because of this that I’m expecting a very strong BD this year. I’ve heard Bluecoats is having a very good preseason, specifically about the talent level. I have a very good feeling about them. As far as Crown, I’ve been told mixed things. It’ll depend on their design. Third is just a gut feeling. ————————————————— 4/5. Santa Clara Vanguard 5/4. Boston Crusaders Vanguard could certainly be top three again, but history tells me that when a corps wins a championship after a long period of not winning, they slip in placement. Boston is on the rise, but breaking into the top three is harder than climbing to where they are now. I think it’ll be one or two more years until they do. —————————————————- 6/7/8. The Cavaliers 6/7/8. The Cadets 6/7/8. Blue Stars I heard good things about Blue Stars this year. I don’t see these three corps falling out of or rising above 6/7/8. The Cavaliers could, but their show designs and brass line will need to improve. Kevin LeBouf could make a big difference. —————————————————- 9/10. Blue Knights 9/10. Crossmen Total guesswork. ————————————————— 11/12. Phantom Regiment 11/12. Madison Scouts (maybe Mandarins) Also total guesswork. I hope to one day see Phantom Regiment thrive again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it is a prediction thread for 2019 so I’ll give him that but I think he’s wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
