Fascinating, this could be a good year for the non-Louisville schools.

 

While we ended the season with the title, Male returns much more experience than we do so I have no problem with them getting the nod right now.

So the 15th ranked team nationally is third in their own city. Should be a fun year.

Actually, second....we're Trinity, not St. X.

Oops. I get the all male Catholic high schools in Louisville confused all the time.

You sure about that?:creepy:

On the topic I think the rankings look about right!

They return more starters I believe.

I would think every year, most schools do return more starters than X and T. Male probably has 3-5 kids who are seniors who have started since their sophmore year. Where's the respect? Doesn't matter, I would much rather be ranked #1 at the end of the season than the beginning.

I think the powers to be here are saying the win over X in the title game was a fluke. Fair enough.

 

But Male has done nothing to deserve a #1 ranking, even with all the talent they have had since 2000 (has it been that long). They might win it all in Dec, but no way I would put them preseason #1.

 

I would put X first. End of story. They will have their best O-Line ever (at least better than last year’s which was supposed to be their best ever), one of the top 3 RB’s in the state, and a very good QB. Add a great soph RB to the mix (he's the real deal), and this offense is primed. Their D is always sound. Add in the loss to T in the finals... Come on. They have all the pieces and more than enough motivation.

 

T loses 3 terrific targets for Petrino. 1 WR is back. We also lose our 2 RB's which really made the offense fly. And we lost senior leaders from the O-line. 2 of the top 3 DB's in the state (WR and RB on O) are gone. The d-line is thin again because of graduating senior o-linemen that went both ways. The LB's should be OK, but they can only do so much without a d-line. I would put T at 3 behind X and Male. We do have a great punter, which should help early in the season. Of course this is only preseason.

Male has had some very good teams in the past, looks as if this might be their year. I suspect trinity and st.x will have a little to say about those preseason rankings.... Let the games begin, lets see who is really the front runner for the 4A title after 3 or 4 games.... Long season, although the cream will rise to the top fairly quickly, I still feel the 06 champ will have some battle scars....

What lovely irony it would be for Male to lead the charge in fixing the old corrupt system...then win the state championship under the old corrupt system. :lol:

Not sure the old or the new system is "corrupt", but take care of business and just WIN BABY WIN.... Winning solves alot of problems, it actually eliminates 85% of all problems.... if you never loose, then 99% of your problems are solved..... Simply put, JUST WIN!!!!!!!!

Interesting to see Male on top, but not too shocking. Should be a fun year in 4A, as usual.

So three of the top four teams in 4-A will be eliminated by the end of round three???
