Wasnt this the game, the bias majority ate crow? LB 28 BF 6
-
Dont you those points even in a loss? That is the points from pikeville and paintsville
-
-
When did Ridgeview join the SWD?
-
I believe this is the week BYE finally scores a point. The longest drought in sports history. But the toughest defense based on points allowed per game.

-
21-0 twhs in the gap half
-
This x1000, Heard too many coaches on multiple teams say, we will stop x with y in season. Example was Hurley running so well in the A gap, Eastside did that last year and was solved at half which lead to a tight contest.
-
Thomas Walker will be there for an 8pm game.
We lost some key starters in all facets of the game but have some talent returning. People have us being a contender in the Cumberland district but, I don't know what to expect from this group yet. Ill save my projection for week 2.

How is the real enrollment only 450? Adm is based on the numbers provided by the principal. There is no middle ground to this, a lot of fudging (Riverheads mythical 474) but no gray area.
-
-
I hope he does, I am after his money, since he shows no concern for having any coming into the program.
Also his information about Hurley and Patrick Henry is false. I asked.
Hurley's situation was explained in an earlier post. Patrick Henry contracts have never been discussed by the Ad or HC of Thomas Walker.
-
So you are saying, when schedules are made again, you will front the money to make up for losing a home game?

-
From a perceptive of being exposed to three different Official governing bodies (Basketball) the AOA is definitely better than anything that KHSAA and TSSAA produces.
Do take this with a grain of salt as with most out of conference games, you usually end up with officials who are either training or somewhat new. Ill take the AOA any day of the week over Middle NET TSSAA.

So Host a tournament mid year that can be considered a state title by All "A" schools but wait you still play.
Then allow other schools in 2a host another tournament that is considered a state title call the All "AA" tournament, because they are left out of the All "A."
Then have a end of the year tournament that Has EVERY TEAM start in their geographically bracket no matter the classification or record play. (Jenkins made it) (Harlan vs Harlan County as an example.)
Then based on history only one school with enrollment of 700 has advanced to the finals since 2000 and only that team has ever won it. (2010 Shelby Valley)(Harlan County had 2 P5 girls players Last year and lost in the opening round by a large margin)
EKY pushed for a 2a Tournament just to get out of the mess that is the Sweet sixteen, It would not shock me if the sweet sixteen is dismantled when the all "AAA" is created and it coming.
Why not pair the state champions at the end of the season in a 6 team bracket and settle it that way.

I'll be blunt,
Its we play a beefy schedule, it is this
We travel every year while only having 3 home games (cause we all know NO ONE WANTS TO COME TO EWING). If we do get a Va team it is cause They are desperate enough to make the return the trip. Heck even Harlan ky (6th closest school) wanted to drop us till they couldn't find a 10th which is stated above.
Or we play teams that bring the money for us to continue football. It helps those games are enjoyable and have built our fan base.
-
Before slamming a teams schedule can I a few questions?
Were you there when the schedule was being made?
Did you notice Harlan is on a different week then it has been the last several years? Odd
Did you notice the home and away series that are needed and the fact everyone wants us to travel?
And do you have contacts with the football administrations of those teams listed stating that we ducked any of these teams, specifically Patrick Henry, Hurley, Honaker or any team with in a 4 hour radius of a bus ride? Refer to Harlan.
I'll let you know a little info to fuel you arguement, the ONLY team we have repeatedly "ducked" is Union, granted we play them in several scrimmages and middle school.
But hey we duck teams cause we suck, not the fact that we are having awesome gates for a single a program. Say we play Hurley honaker and Patrick. The gap in one game will be 2x as much those 3 games combined in a single gate.

Jackets would have been the better opponent, even though they have got a proven SEKY coach, it will take him a few years to get the wheels on that dumpster fire going.
