And Ram if you are going to use my "Noted" you must put the thumby behind it...

Highlands JV only played one NKY team this year Campbell Co. First game of the year for the JV.

 

HHS 24 at Campbell Co 14

HHS 37 at George Rogers Clark 8

HHS 42 vs Lexington Cath 19

HHS 37 at Cinti Withrow 6

HHS 35 at Lexington Bryan Station 0

HHS vs Cincinnati Elder

HHS vs Scott County

 

It might be that CCH is following not leading a boycott?

 

Since MOST teams JV schedules follow their Varsity scheduling, I'm not sure anyone ELSE is intentionally ducking Highlands. Cooper had one open week (won't make the drive to S.Oldham for JV) and we worked in Beechwood instead.

 

As PigSkin says, schools usually play the JV of the same team they play in varsity each week. Highlands has played one varsity game against a N. Ky team besides CCH. That was Campbell Co. and they also played the Campbell Co. JV. I don't know what Harrison County does for JV but perhaps Highlands preferred to play CCH to Harrison Co., or maybe Harrison Co. didn't want to play Highlands. That I don't know.

 

The remaining games for Highlands are Holmes (no JV, playing froshmore), Elder and Warren Central. So following the JV plays varsity opponent model, Highlands had no N. Ky. opponents for JV except Campbell Co. and CCH.

 

Now, as to why CCH cancelled, let's play the score comparison game. Highlands JV beat Campbell Co. 24-14. Beechwood JV beat Campbell Co. 24-6. Cov Cath JV beat Beechwood 22-15. That tells me that CCH and Highlands should be a competitive game. So the cancellations shouldn't be due to any competition concerns. Which leads to all the speculation about the real reason for the cancellation, until someone clears things up.

No kidding.

Not really, just a JV opponent. Know anyone with an open date. And oldtimebaseball84, in my best Tracy Jones voice, "how dare you"?

All good points were made........just getting to the point of repeating themselves........

 

tdyballgame.......it's all good....will meet you at Longhorn's in the near future......I'll buy.

Sounds good. For a second I thought you said Longnecks!

Why don't we meet at PeeWees or as TBirds calls it "P-Dubs_ and we will invite Clyde and the Painter and get to the bottom of this mess in a hurry...

 

Heck I might just call my buddy Bobby Rowe and we will then get the real reason:thumb:

I don't want to rock the CCH boat, but my question is the same I raised last year and at the beginning of the season. CCH as you say has beaten HHS here and there which gives them respect. Does 3 times in 17 years really equal here and there? CCH has been treated with kid gloves on here for awhile and no other school besides HHS gets that kind if respect in NKY and I do t get it. CCH hasn't won anything in awhile, not even a district title, so why treat them like the untouchables they have become around here?

 

I get what you are saying but in fairness 3 wins in 17 games is 1 more win than all other teams in NKY have against Highlands in that same span.

It depends on what you mean by being treated with "kid gloves." Ask Dave Brossart if he ever got any kid glove treatment from CCH fans or rival fans? CCH threads, like HHS threads, are big reads on BGP.

 

If you mean they get too much love and benefit of the doubt about how strong they are then I can partially agree. The program is just not where it once was and many fans still think of that time vs what they really are today.

 

The problem with your argument that CCH hasn't won anything in a while is that NO NKY team would have fared any better. HHS is simply at a different level. CCH is hardly an "untouchable."

That is exactly what I'm talking about.

So what?

 

So then shouldn't teams that beat CCH be given even more credit than they are?

Here is the view from a non CCH person.

 

I think the program at CCH is as good or better than it ever has been. Wirth has taken CCH to a higher level. Unfortunately, Highlands has gone to a different level and CCH has not been able to catch up. If Highlands is the measuring stick, CCH is not where it was because they aren't beating Highlands. If the rest of the teams in N. Ky. is the measuring stick, CCH is as good or better than it ever has been.

Well stated and agree on all counts.
