So it is misinformation that a well talented child even if they are a frosh will not have to sit back if they can out form a soph, jun, or senior? I"m glad to know that. I prefer golf rather than football so it is something new for me at this level. Nothing like FTJFL

Just because a boy is a strong player his frosh year doesn't mean he's ready for varsity. However there are sophomores who get playing time for HHS each year so don't listen to everything you're told. Lot's of misinformation goes around.

Just to clear up some name confusion.

 

Evan Richardson - Center

Tyler Robinson - Defensive Lineman

 

Ben Dressman - no eligibility left, his son Joe will be a returning Inside Linebacker

It would not surprise me if Brad Greene moved back to the offensive side of the ball next year. He never played defense all year until major injuries in the secondary occurred. A lot of people probably do not realize that he only practiced defense for about 6-7 weeks all year and the majority of that was during the playoffs; pretty impressive for a sophomore.

Yeah- this pretty much confirms why I thought OP started the thread. Parents are parents- even in the Fort.

Frosh? Never heard of that before, I was referring to sophomores over juniors and seniors. Don't know if frosh are even given the chance to go up against upperclassmen in practice so my guess is that the answer is no. At least during the regular season.

Why the problem with OP?

So is Austin Hergott a lock at QB at Highlands in 2015 or is there anyone else on the team that has played the position who might be considering moving and seeing what happens.....???? I'm thinking Hergott is the front runner but there are a few other kids that have played that position at the younger levels that I know can get it done. 1 in particular is Mitchell Cain. Yes that's right Mitchell Cain. I think that if you have experience at the position from years past, then why not give it a go around if it's for the better of the team. Competition is good! Hergott would be a freak at TE if things didn't work out at QB.....

Mayfield as good as this year..Maybe better

Also you have Brady Gosney who did a great job. I think he will be a soph if memory serves me correct.

Junior next year

That's even better then. He was a great player in FTJFL

Junior next year

A few predictions for next year in 5A

Highlands will be well coached, disciplined football team. They will start slowly due to the influx of new players/new positions. By the time they play CovCath they will have established their identity and will be somewhere between a very good and Great Football team.

 

Covcath will start strong, featuring a big strong offensive line with a dual threat QB. They will probably run the ball more with the RB's than the last few years. Their defense will rally to the ball well. They will give up some big plays in the secondary, but will also put pressure on opposing qb's. They will beat Dixie and Grant County easily, and will lose to Highlands displaying poor tackling and surprisingly poor execution on offense.

 

Both CovCath and Highlands will advance to the Regional finals, where Highlands will find a way to win.

 

Beyond that I have no guesses, however I will predict that neither will win 5A next year.

 

For fans of both schools .. no disprespect meant just my opinion of what will occur next year!

That sounds like some of what I over heard the parents saying at dinner one night at a local pub. Said this would be the last win for sometime. Which had me asking the questions I did. If a frosh is better, stronger and bigger than a soph, jun, or sen would he have a chance to prove it. I know their are a lot of frosh little birds who are able and willing to step up to the plate and play hard. A lot of the Frosh boys are bigger than the up coming jun kid's

All this talk about Highlands! They play SK this year. SK returns a bunch of good football players and the JV team was 10-0 2 years a row. SK will be lead by returning starter quarterback Cameron Racke (6'1 175) 1897 yards passing 21 tds and 524 yards 8 tds rushing he is backed up by Tanner Green (6'3 180). AT running back Dillon Powell (5'10 180) 1519 yards rushing 16 tds. They also return two other backs Dylan Hampton (5'10 165) and Elijah Jackson.(5'7 160) At receiver they return Logan Scot(6'0 165), Logan Kreidenweis (6'0 160), Luke Vance (5'10 150) and tightend Josh Morrison(6'3 207). The O-line returns one starter at guard David Sandlin (6'0 280). I would look for Colton Williams (6'5 245), Blake Clark (6'4 265), Lenny Connor (6'1 245), Zachary Stone (5'10 215) to be the other starters. SK also returns kicker Brandon Carmony.

 

On defense SK will be stacked again with some good football players. On the defensive line they return Tucker Mueller (6'1 260), Blake Powell (5'11 235) and Mitchell Kreidenweis (6'1 205) they also have back ups Jantzen Harris (5'10 200), Jay'veon Johnson (6'1 200) and Drew Pompilio (6'2 190) I think all three could play DE or LB. At linebacker they return a good group who either started a couple games or seen playing time Markie Rider (5'10 195), Brian Carter (6'1 190), Casey Cornett (5'10 195), Taylor Holtkamp (6'2 190) and Dalton Finnell (6'0 193). At DB SK returns

three starters Trent Kincaid (5'7 160) he lead NKY at interceptions, Taylor Galbraith (5'10 160) and Jacob Harney (5'9 160). SK will be a tough team to go against next year.
