Yesterday, 09:00 PM^ If they don't start Kizer in Game 1 that does not mean they wait until next year. The beginning of the season starts with some tough division opponents and some think they will go with experience out of the box and give Kizer several weeks to get acclimated then bring him in. Otherwise, he will take a beating early on and they don't want to risk the future yet. However, the most recent stories out of Cleveland make it sound like Kizer...7 replies | 150 view(s) -

Yesterday, 09:46 AMThe Cleveland Browns won their pre-season contest against the New York Giants on Monday night. DeShone Kizer is still the only QB to put up points for the Browns. He had a 1 yrd TD run and led the team to a 39 yrd fied goal. Hue Jackson will decide soon on a starter for game 1 against the Steelers so that the team can "rally around the starter." DeShone Kizer keeps himself in mix during Browns' 1 -6 victory over Giants |...7 replies | 150 view(s)

Aug 21, 17, 11:24 PMBoone Co at Conner this Friday at 7 pm. This is the opening game for each team. Tell us the keys to victory for both. Allow me to get us started with some thoughts about Boone County. On offense Boone County needs to have a little diversity. They have been a running team for so long and this will not change this year. Without having much to base this on it seems like they rely on pounding the ball up the middle. It would be nice...1 replies | 139 view(s)

Aug 21, 17, 10:44 PMThat assumption would provide you with some quiet time as you'd find yourself alone in the stadium. Take your Bible with you and put the time to good use.

Aug 21, 17, 10:22 PMIf Dixie cannot stop a big back, then Thurza for Scott could be a handful. He also will make it hard to run up the middle for Dixie. The boy is about as stout as they come. If they have to watch Thurza, then Perrin will have some room to run. This could be a very interesting matchup.8 replies | 461 view(s)

Aug 21, 17, 09:16 AMoldgrappler replied to a thread How long until Boone County "Rebels" are forced to change their mascot? in Controversial IssuesI wish they would redesign the logo. I have a track shirt with logo that has an older gentlemen on it in a large brimmed hat and mustache. He looks like a tobacco smokin', bourbon drinkin', bird-chested, skinny-armed, not-long-for-this-world "good old boy" that wouldn't strike fear into the heart of a girls' flag football team. As for the Rebel designation... my understanding is that the high school voted on this right after James Dean's...27 replies | 711 view(s)

Aug 21, 17, 08:40 AMThis is what I was talking about. If Ryle is going to have a couple of trouble spots needing attention the early schedule they have will allow their other athletes to step up and carry the team until the coaches have time to settle the weaker areas down and coach them up. I agree, they should be fine in the early part of the season. Highlands' passing game will allow them to see if the secondary has worked things out. Ryle's defense will be...31 replies | 2322 view(s)

Aug 20, 17, 06:20 PMWell, two glaring areas need attention. The coaches will have to earn their keep in these early weeks to address the need. I don't know Ryle's upcoming schedule but it would help them if they were not going against their tougher opponents early in the season.31 replies | 2322 view(s)

Aug 19, 17, 05:30 PMOkay, thanks for the clarification. Witschey is a quick back and has always played right with the class ahead of him. The next three years should be good for him.43 replies | 3534 view(s)

Aug 19, 17, 03:11 PMThanks for pointing out the bolded. That paints a different picture than what one may think when first hearing of the number of interceptions. The QB can't be blamed for that (you obviously are not, HB). Was the backup running back you mention Chris Collins? He is a tough kid and seems to get the job done.43 replies | 3534 view(s)

Aug 19, 17, 12:22 PMBoone Co did an all-call and told parents about the danger, that no one will be allowed outside unsupervised during school. No recess for the little ones. And parents needed to provide glasses for the students or they would not participate in any activities involving viewing the eclipse. Also, kids wont be placed on buses before 4 pm so parents could pick them up earlier if they so choose. Football practice not until after 4 pm.55 replies | 1473 view(s)

Aug 19, 17, 09:09 AMOn the way home I was listening to the radio and they attributed the late TD run of 80+ yrds to Chisum. That is inaccurate. It was Kyle England. It was late in the game. So subtract those yards and the TD from Chisum's stats. Cam Butler looked big and athletic. It also looked like he was tracking Chisum everywhere the RB went since it became apparent the passing game couldn't hurt them. The bolded statement is probably correct. ...90 replies | 7927 view(s)

Aug 18, 17, 09:56 PMCov Cath has the QB to lead them a long way. He is the real deal. He was money tonight. Passes were right there and when he calls his own number he is hard to stop. Big, athletic, good arm, accuracy, just plain good. There were two questions that Ryle needed to answer: could the QB do enough to keep defenses off of Chisum? and was the defensive backfield better than they looked against Trinity. Tonight, the answer to both questions...90 replies | 7927 view(s)

Aug 18, 17, 11:46 AMGo early to QS&L on Mall Rd, eat some wings (my favorite is the chipotle dry rub), Stop at the UDF near Haines Dr. for some ice cream, check out a book at the Scheben library, then head to the game. I can't guarantee the outcome will make you happy but the pre-game routine will have you in a great mood when your backside hits the bleachers.54 replies | 1707 view(s)

Aug 18, 17, 11:34 AMCornerbacks are Rytlewski and Cusick, correct? Zach has lots of experience and Cusick is very athletic with good fundamentals. Did anyone see him plant the Trinity receiver with a perfect form tackle in the scrimmage?! Text book tackle. He'll learn as he gains experience. The safeties are pretty good too. I think they had trouble against Trinity because Trinity is that good. They will look better against NKY teams. I think the...52 replies | 5089 view(s)

Aug 17, 17, 09:28 AMI wanted to comment in this thread as I read through it but then as I kept reading, it got ugly. I don't mean to participate in that at all but I do want to add my observations. The bold statement above is where I think CC is. Having seen them in 7 v 7 early this summer confirms this opinion. However, they have had time to develop and perhaps the offense will be more efficient as the season starts. They will need a strong running game to...42 replies | 3288 view(s)
