Expectations at Ryle

Is that really any different that beating your chests after beating the likes of Ludlow, Bellvue or Dayton? Or , really anybody in 1A not named Mayfield?

Obviously you haven't seen BW play Ludlow, Bellevue or Dayton, not one time did they "beat their chests" as you put it, as a matter of fact Rash had penalty flags thrown on a couple of scores in one of those games because he did not want to show up the other team. Now, if BW were to beat Mayfield...let the chest beating begin!

So, the players at a larger school are better because they are at a larger school? Dang, I better tell our players to quite beating players from larger schools at this year's summer camps because I would say that is embarrassing to the players from the larger school.

 

Some people just don't' get it, and probably never will.

Not sure where you are going with this Ram, just because you go to bigger school doesn't make you a better player, but you sure have a larger pool to choose from, not to mention you can run a two platoon system. SK did beat BW last year, fair and square, it was a great game...but when the players go into the stands to high five the crowd after beating a 1A school, I think it shows a lack of class and respect, of course their head coach not acknowledging any of the BW players or coaches after the game...well lets say the apple didn't fall far from the tree.

Maybe I don't get it, maybe I never will, but you weren't there to see it with your own two eyes.

BW proves year in and year out that a small school with a large number of open enrollment players can be very competitive, even dominant, over larger schools that have few, if any open enrollment players. No need to make it more complicated than that, or put down schools that don't have the benefit of these advantages..

I don't necessarily disagree with you, BW does have kids from out of district who pay tuition, and although BW has an outstanding academic reputation I am not going down that road, of the 8 tuition kids that are on BW's roster I am almost certain their reason for coming was football, the academics are just a bonus. However in the case of SK, they are in the Kenton County school district, which has open enrollment, which SK benefits from. Personally I don't care, I think kids should attend where they want, but on last years SK team 3 of their starters lived in Scott territory. We are splitting hairs here, I hope both SK and BW have banner years and play at Western the first weekend in December.

It wasn't about that particular game, it was about your post that made is seem that just because a player is at larger school makes them better. The 1A versus 4A or 5A gets old. There are many quality smaller schools in the state the can and do routinely beat larger schools.

 

If your point was that Simon Kenton shouldn't be over the top about beating Beachwood, why not just say it? But, instead the size of the school has to be brought into the discussion.

Maybe they (SK) were still sour about the year before when they lost to BW 28-0? I did not see any chest beating from BW in that game either. They went about their business as they usually do and acted like they had been there before............which they have. Many times.
