Regiment maybe, but you have to give Cavies new staff a year or two. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craiga Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Based on where Boston is on talent and show design compared with last year: 1. Boston Crusaders 2. Blue Devils 3. Bluecoats 4. Cadets 5. Crown 6. Phantom Regiment 7. Mandarins 8. Blue Stars 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madison Scouts won everything in '88 with a bunch of new staff, some of who have been with BD for a long time. Some of Cavies new staff are all-star staff, and they've gotten an influx of people from other finalist corps, plus this is a special year. Also, I've heard some stuff. They've got a shot at top 5 for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modern staffs need a season or two to find their voice as a unit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how they leapfrog several groups Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
