I think Ryle's ship finally sinks this year.

I don't think the ship is sinking only because the Sophomore and Freshman classes are pretty strong. Its more like (to use a Nascar analogy) the car that gets loose on lap one and hits the wall, goes into the pits, has to have the whole front end of the car duck taped back together and is back out on the track, out their driving around seeing how long the duck tape will last.

If it does and they make it to shore then I suppose they merely become Pioneers...

:lol:

This was one game. Cooper is a very good team and came out very strong and just beat Ryle. This is more or less the same Ryle team from last year (after the Travis Elliot injury). They returned most of defense, 4 of 5 returners on the line, their RB (again after Travis' injury) and their QB. They will come around once their very tough part of their schedule is over and district play starts.

Taking on water, yes. Sinking, no.

Ryle's ship will never "sink." That's just UKFan whistling past the graveyard.

True...so true

Best case, a 6 win season. With the schedule they have, I could see a 3 win season. I wish they good luck and good health. They are going to need it.

I think they will struggle some this year but they are building thier underclassman so in a couple years will be a force again. But its only one game they could prove me and a lot wrong.

I think week against Henry Clay is a big week for Ryle. After getting beat-down by Cooper and with two kick tail Ohio teams on the schedule in Weeks 3 and 4 if the Raiders lose this week they will go into the Simon game 0 and 4.

...and can still win NKY 6A.

Ryle might beat Dixie.

No doubt Clyde, NKY 6A is wide open.

This years Senior's had a very good Frosh season as well, beating Cov cath and HHS I believe in the regular season. Cooper was just better this year. A lot of time to prove their worth.
