  1. I found it LongTimeReader. Good stuff and you are correct. X is tighter with Male during the Wolford era. X is 0-4 with an average score of 25 points against Male 31 (6 points) During the same Wolford era, Trinity is 1-5 with an avg score of 21 points against Male 31 (10 points) Going back to the pre-Wolford era - we can find some pretty alarming statistics. In the years before Wolford arrived, Coach Glaser and X beat Male 41-0 / 55-14 / 57-7 / 56-10 (all teams coached by Wolfe). During the same time, Trinity beat Male 38-7 and 44-0 (also teams coached by Wolfe). The more I look at this stuff, I start to think it doesn't have very much to do with Glaser, Wolford, Beatty or even Wolfe (almost great coaches)...and a lot more to do with the KIDS at Male the past 4 seasons. How in the world did the talent shift like that? We're talking night and day results...almost an overnight flip of the script when the 2016 class arrived on the Male campus!!!
  2. How many wins for X over Male in the Wolford era? Just wondering.
  3. Looks like McGuire did all the work anyway. Kid has some jets!! Spent a day at a track meet back when he was in grade school. Kid was a lot of fun to watch?
  4. thsrocks - are you saying the Freshman started at QB but looks like Bohn led the only TD drive...correct? Who was the DB...Grantham?
  5. Congrats Shamrocks! Love seeing our guys walking around with that Shillelagh - the pictures go great hanging on the basement wall.
  6. Don't sleep on Carmony and Bocko. Guys have been doing more with less in Louisville for a long time. Manual could be a sleeping giant. Just maintaining the success Coach Lucas had wouldn't be a bad thing. Good school, quality football and kids go to solid colleges. Got to appreciate the track record of success. Not to mention they have regularly gone into the post season and beat another district #1 or #2 seed.
  7. What is the % of Catholics on the Villanova National Championship team???? Who really cares? Get tired of reading this garbage. So many wonderful men and women of faith running both schools.
  8. Bocko doing 'Steve Bocko things' with that defense!! One of the top coaches in Louisville the past 30 years not named Lamphley, Beatty, Glaser or Redman. Just my opinion. Nice to see him working with the kids even during him retirement years. Carmony not too shabby either...good work men!!
  9. I enjoyed the Jason Frakes article on Waggener. Agree with everything you guys are saying and I don't understand taking a knee during the Anthem. But, the kids at Waggener have my attention. I like to see the kids at least turn the situation into something positive. Lot of positive groups getting established at Waggener and it sounds like Police officers are getting engaged to collaborate with the kids. Again, taking a knee during the anthem is something I'll never get behind - but I respect the kids at Waggener for turning it into positive results and following up with actions!! The kids got my attention and thanks to Jason Frakes for the article to help the kids get the message out in the open. Now...stand up and respect the flag and all the people (regardless of skin color, religion or sexual orientation) that sacrificed or continue to sacrifice for all of us.
  10. Same...I'm hearing the same stuff but won't believe anything until I see it. Nothing but good things going around the community regarding Young Scroggins and his athletic ability. Are my sources correct when saying Young Scroggins is the best player in CSAA football? Is he going the Catholic route in high school? Wouldn't be a bad idea to distance yourself for the old man...don't want to ride coattails at Central if his old man is the coach. Or maybe Coach will get on at X/T - heck, he could be the next man up at X if things don't change. Bring his son with him. That would shock the world!
  11. It looks like Tilghman is the winner! Where did they finish in the district race that year? Just wondering about the 2014 Trinity team finishing in 3rd place behind Male & X - coming out as a 3rd place team and going on to win state. Anyone have another 3rd place team to do that? In the old days, Trinity wouldn't have made the playoffs.
  12. Right - 2014 State Champ Trinity Shamrocks were 5-5. Win - Imhotep Charter (PA), Colerain (OH), Cocoa (FL), Cathedral (IN), Manual Loss - Ensworth (TN), Carmel (IN), Louisville X, Male, Moeller (OH) That was a fun schedule before Trinity was moved out of the Super District. #3 in the district going through 5 road games to win the championship. Do we have another 3rd place district finish to ever win State???
  13. Fact - Male was gassed, very big boys not in the most tip-top shape - Trinity was better conditioned. If anyone was watching the game live, you could clearly see it. Interesting comments about the Male QB and his hand. I personally feel like Male/Wolfe let off the gas pedal. If he wanted, he could have thrown the ball deep all night and put Trinity in the body bag (and that is coming from a Trinity fan). Something changed in that game and my personal opinion was it didn't have anything to do with Trinity making subs or coaching guys up in the secondary - either the QB couldn't get the ball deep down field or Wolfe chose not to throw it deep anymore. After doing it 3 - 4 times, kind of like Male packed in the deep ball and said "OK, we can destroy them AGAIN in the air - don't show them anymore". This part of the game has been an issue for T the past 5 years - and it isn't getting any better. Too many athletes on the team to be that bad in the secondary year after year. What gives???
