I agree. He didn't look physically well.

Was he 100% for this game after suffering a nasty ankle injury several weeks ago against Boone? It was mentioned that Wabash College is recruiting Sergent and JJ Courtney. I believe that's an all-boys school. They play D3 and are very successful, this year beating Wittenberg in OT. I don't think they were invited to the D3 post-season, though. Any D3 school that gets Courtney is going to get a steal. He doesn't have much height but...

Did Christian Webster play for Conner? It looked like he suffered a nasty calf injury in the fourth quarter of last week's game against Cooper. He was down for a while on the field and they helped him off. I saw him after the Cooper game and he was not able to bend his foot to walk normally. That obviously would have had an impact on tonight's game.

Former BCPWFL Knight. Christian is a great kid from a great family.

Friday we will know.

It seems lawildcat was all over it. See posts 152, 154, 158.

A couple of more Perrins in the pipeline wouldn't hurt either.

Here's an article in the NKY Tribune that lists the All-District Offense and Defense for all 4 classes in NKY. Selected for Boone County in Class 6A are Lucas Ferguson (OL), John Mark Shutt (LB), and Jante Wingo (DB). Also mentioned are the eight local players selected for the Best of the Bluegrass all-Star game.

And with that move, Coach Woolley taught his players one more great life lesson. Put your family first! No one will ever regret doing that.

Congratulations to Conner on the come from behind victory. And congratulations to Cooper on a hard fought game. The Jaguar seniors gave everything they had to try to win this game. There is nothing to hang their heads about. Sophomore QB Jeremiah Lee also made some very big plays. After one Conner score they attempted a short kick to one of the Cooper middle men who couldn't find the handle, Lee ran up from behind, picked the ball up...

Sorry, I am not able to follow you because several teams have been mentioned, none of which I am familiar with. To which team are you referring?

The University of Dayton Flyers defeated the Morehead State Eagles 63-20. It was a very cold Saturday afternoon but the sun was shining most of the day. NKY's own Jake Chisholm ran back one kickoff for about 65 yards but it was called back due to a penalty. He also got in the game for one carry and almost scored a TD from about 15 yards out. He started inside but things were clogged up there. Using that good vision he was known...

rjs4470, it is only my personal opinion. The QBs are close to having flags now. You can't land on them. A D-lineman has to risk injury to himself in order to keep from landing on the QB. Three yards and a cloud of dust is not boring to me. Remember, this is my personal opinion. That was a description that characterized the Woody Hays years at OSU and I loved those years, but it was an exaggeration, at that. Three yards and a cloud of...

Adopting NFL rules is the wrong way to go. The NFL is headed towards flag football. That's boring. 1. Adopt the rules of the game from the 60's and 70's. I don't like to watch a track meet. Return football to the way it was meant to be played. It was a man's game and only true warriors stood tall. This would increase the importance of the RB and MLB. The QB role would diminish some. It is way out of balance now. 2. Put all...

The Oilers play at Tiffin Univ at 1:05 pm. This will probably be his last game because I do not think Findlay made the playoffs this year. Last week was Christian's Senior Day. I would have loved to have been there but was unable to go.

Way to go Dante! It's good to get some news about NKY products in college. Thanks for posting.

All valid points futurecoach! We will find out how much Cooper has improved in their matchup with Conner on Friday night. It should be an exciting game and I plan to be there.

It wasn't just the profanity but the threatening nature of what he was saying. "You better not cross me." "Keep your mouth shut," etc. etc.

This is the end of the road for Henry Clay. Stop #9 and HC has no offense. He only had around 70 yards against Boone but three of those runs went for TDs.

I think it was a huge factor also. I believe GRC would have won that game. He is hard to stop and I think the biggest difference would be in keeping the ball away from Cooper.

I'll answer my own question. The stats have been posted. Nitavius Thomas did not play. Did that make a difference in the game? It's hard to say since his "backup", Azariah Israel, gained 301 yards on the ground. The question is, would Nitavius Thomas have gotten that crucial 1st down to keep the drive alive and away from Cooper or would he have scored more TDs than GRC managed in this game? I guess it really doesn't matter. ...

Did Nitavius Thomas play for GRC? Someone suggested in the prediction thread that he may not play.

He accounted for 7 TDs?! That's insane.

But he's right. Every team in the playoffs is kind of a pointless system and I'm speaking as a fan of a team that's won 4 games in 4 years (prior to tonight's playoff game). I think a 3 team district is also pretty meaningless.

Looks like decent weather tonight for the game. I am assuming Henry Clay has turf so no mud to deal with. Field conditions shouldn't be a factor.

It's entertainment.

Okay, Henry Clay lost their QB but they still have a pretty good RB (#9). Against Cooper, #9 didn't really get underway except for a couple of runs around either end on the first drive. After that the sloppy conditions of Cooper's field helped to keep him in check. However, Witschey and Lee were able to run against the HC defense. Is there more in play here than sloppy field conditions? In other words, would Henry Clay have been...
