  1. I think he is questioning commitment of players and the responsibility of parents to set a good example.
  2. This article is getting tons of attention in Henderson. Thought I would share and please share your thoughts! PATTON: Fall break is all about me
  3. Would love to see the Aces come out strong but I think Mater Dei will be too tough 35-7 Mater Dei
  4. Mark Higgs Owensboro I watched him run 80 yards for a TD against Henderson County with only one shoe on!
  5. He was fabulous until he met the Henderson County Colonels in the playoffs! Greatest game ever played at the old Colonel Stadium!
  6. 1976 4A State Championship Louisville Trinity 28 Henderson County 24 Henderson City and County high schools had merged that year producing the greatest team in Henderson County football history! Clear cold day with a good amount of snow and ice left on the bleachers( I think they cleaned off the Trinity side not the Henderson side), all scoring took place in the 1st half as the Colonels jumped out to a 24-14 lead. Trinity responded and lined up for a tying field goal with about :30 left until the half. Jim Campbell TE came onto the field and every Henderson County fan was screaming watch for the fake but Mojo Hollowell didn't defend it and the Shamrocks threw a TD and went up 28-24 at the half. The Colonels got close only once in the second half but fumbled the ball at the Shamrock 10 yard line. I think that was as close as any team got in the 2nd half. Colonels ended the season 14-1 and I think Trinity went undefeated at 15-0. I remember Trinity had given up only 29 points all year and Henderson scored 24 on them early. A great team that just came up short.
  7. Damion Carter from Henderson Co. Anybody know if he is going anywhere?
  8. Then obviously you pay no attention to youth sports.
  9. That's a good read! I think we are getting away from the reason this post was started was about the coaching situation at Henderson. I watched them a few times last year and one thing I noticed was they played with absolutely no passion for the game. Once they got behind by a touchdown you could pretty much call the game because they did not have a fire to compete. Only when they played mediocre competition did they show up. I was at the Memorial game and the Memorial QB was lighting them up early with his passing, the other game I watched was on TV and the defense just laid down and let Gibson Southern run wild. Both good teams Gibson Southern had an excellent year last year but Henderson should never be beaten that bad! That is a failure on the part of the coaching staff all the way down to youth football for not preparing these kids to play at a high level when they reach high school. Soccer is killing football and basketball in Henderson and I'm not sure if youth football isn't hurting the situation also. Most kids that play contact football at an early age just get tired of it by the time they reach high school. Peyton Manning said he didn't play contact football until he was 13 just 7 on 7. Whoever they bring in they must be able to get a feeder system together that works and get athletes on the football field and off the couch, plus the athletic department at Henderson has to be willing to allow kids to play more than one sport without it hurting their playing time!
  10. I've never heard a coach refer to it as a formation only an offense so I guess they know what they are talking about
  11. The spread offense is an offensive scheme in American and Canadian football that is used at every level of the game including professional (NFL, CFL), college (NCAA, NAIA, CIS), and high school programs across the US and Canada. Spread offenses typically place the quarterback in the shotgun formation, and "spread" the defense horizontally using three-, four-, and even five-receiver sets. Many spread offenses also employ a no-huddle approach. Some implementations of the spread also feature wide splits between the offensive linemen. Many spread offenses use the read option running play to put pressure on both sides of the defense. Spread offenses also leverage vertical (down field) passing routes to spread the defense vertically, to open up multiple vertical seams for both the running and passing game.
