I used to hear stories about him being a hardcore a** kicker back in the early '90s. His reputation was quite intimidating during that era. Having marched under Lee a number of years ago. The activity as a whole has mellowed but Lee still expects hard work at a high level. It just doesn't involve pushups or running anymore. I never felt demeaned by him back then but he is going to push you to be great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supersop Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Hmmmm. I can't believe that hasn't "leaked/dropped" yet.\ Maybe by morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad Kerr Green isn't coming back for 2023. There's some synergies with Loney and some of the other design staff, and I had hoped he would get a shot at arranging for PC. It's bittersweet as Brad was his caption head at Madison and now one of his former students takes over arranging. Loney has accomplished a lot in a short time at his marching band program, and I believe he can do the same at PC. The brass, visual, and colorguard teaching staff are for the most part unchanged. I'm optimistic that corps has the team to finally make a push into finals... hopefully they'll have a good number of veteran members that come back for 2023.

He said it was the best they could do with how poorly they handled everything else. i have seen that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great move, GREAT move by Cadets. It's a good move to stop the bleeding after what has transpired. Not sure how it effects them in performance other than don't drop from 2022.

We'll see if the rumors hold true after the first camp, but it wouldn't surprise me. Lord I hope not!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
