8. ROCCO CASULLO HAS 'IT'
By ‘it' we don't just mean the ‘it' job of high school football. He just has all the qualities to go far as a coach.
He's personable. Strong. Hollywood handsome. Shares the wealth of credit. The first thing he did following the game was note all the contributors – from administrators to office workers to assistant coaches to teachers and the community.
He sees the big picture.
And we suspect, big colleges take notice of big-picture guys. Not sure of his aspirations, but wouldn't be surprised to see him at the next levels soon.
He also went out of his way to note De La Salle's class.
"There's a reason they had all that success and why all those kids are so well coached and classy," he said. "Forget the game, it was just a great experience being a part of this and playing a program like De La Salle.
"I hope we can do this again, next time maybe out their way."
We suspect De La Salle would go for that.
The Spartans want that torch back.
