Danville 38-14

College coaches need to start checking out Dampier. That kid is a heck of a quarterback. He has great field awareness, can make all the throws and doesn't lock in on one receiver. I watched him go through a number of patterns multiple times the other night. He's really good.

 

What are his measurables? Or are you talking D-III and NAIA?

I have no idea how tall he is or anything. I heard he had a great showing at one of the big QB camps over the summer. I have no idea how to evaluate football players but he can play somewhere at the next level.

They list him 6'3" 180.

And one thing I think we all forget is that he can run just hasn't this year. His freshmen year he ran quite a bit at end of year.

Sounds like he has the height. Needs to put on a little weight but he's got good size. If he went to camps last summer and does so again this summer I'd have to think he'd get some interest.

I would say He has been told not to run, if he gets hurt Danville's chances go way down.

Agree 110% but I is a threat that people forget

I just fat thumb voted for LCA. Smh. My vote is with Danville in this one.

 

Dangling chad vote

I like your enthusiasm, and I know, thunder1, is making it very hard to be humble. My prediction is that Danville will win big again, but its not going to be automatic. Danville has to have the intensity and killer instinct they have been playing with and stay focused on the goal. I remember a situation I think back in 1988 Coach Harp's first year when Danville blasted Somerset in the regular season like by 50 or 60 points only to lose to them in the regional (I think).

I think Clay will keep their minds right, but that year always comes to mind when we have a rematch with a team we beat easily in the regular season.

 

 

That was actually 1999 (could've happened in the 80s as well I suppose but this is the one I remember) when the Somerset regional title took place at Danville. Somerset had been beaten by Danville 35-14 in the regular season (not by 60 pts) only for Somerset to catch fire in the playoffs and avenge an ugly loss to a then powerhouse campbellsville and a very good Danville team the next week. Somerset went on to lose to Mr. Football winner Travis Atwell at Hancock County in semi state.

 

LCA is too one dimensional to beat the admirals. I said it the first time and I'll say it again. Admirals big. Hate it, truly do, but I'm beginning to dislike LCA more than the Ads, and that is saying a whole lot.

No, he is correct. He said in Harp's first year. That was 1988. Somerset came into the game at 3-0 and ranked number one while Danville had played a brutal schedule and was 0-3. The Ads handed it to the Jumpers that night at Admiral Stadium. It was more like 35-7 than 60-0 but it was never close. Somerset went in to beat Danville in the semi-finals (not regional finals) at Somerset by a couple of scores before falling to Fort Knox in the State Finals.

It happened both years.

It happened both years.

 

But only one of them was Sam Harp's first season at Danville.

There goes bunny hopper pride again on a thread about other teams sore about getting his butt handed to him by both of those said teams.
