Was “How did they manage to lose with all that talent?” Both did well to make the playoffs once each with those motley crews.

Yep. Devine’s QB was Jerry Tagge

Tagge was overrated coming out of college because he was on great Nebraska teams that won consecutive NC’s. He had a very good college career but those teams were so loaded that it made him look better than he was as a pro prospect. Didn’t hurt that he beat Devine’s Mizzou teams either.

There was almost nobody left on the Packers from the Great Lombardi teams.
local boy - Green Bay West.

His heir was Bud Keyes.

Little know fact: Green Bay has shithole public schools. Just fucking dumps. I think they have built one in the last 50 years, Southwest. And that place is a dump too.

Green Bay East - dump. West - dump. Preble - dump.

My defunct high school was a dump, but that was part of its Chocolate War charm, as editors of the Milwaukee Journal and WSJ can attest.
