Nathan A. Hopkins is the reason they scored so low this year, he has a tendency to fire staff as soon as something doesn't work out. Gino is also the reason but he made the right decision for himself.
I have to stifle a laugh when people tell me that the 2017 horn line was not as good as previous Cadet hornlines. I never listen to comparative comments like that because they only indicate to me that the person making the comment is just trying to sound knowledgable...when they're not. The beautiful sound I heard during The Mass was all I cared about. Cadet horn line, you were sensational. Thank you for further enriching our corps' history.
