they made their statement. they made their statement by outscoring an opposition that 2 platoons. The players for the ads go both ways and play special teams. Their 1/3 of your size and the mighty Titans mustard up a 1 point loss. Hip Hip Hooray! I know this was a game played by a very motivated mercer county team. And why not? They have only been terrible for how long? This was a great oppurtunity for your squad, but....

 

Seriously, i wish you guys the best. Coach Jaggers is awesome. He will take you guys places you only dreamed about before. Im just glad it turned out the way it did, because we all know that if Mercer won then everyone in Mercer Co. would have talked it up. I know its a scrimmage. I could care less about the score, because when it comes to analyzing an opponent and scheming what they do by putting your own players in positions to succeed week in and week out, Harp is the man. Scrimmages tell how your players will respond in competition. Mercer responded. Good for them! An actual game compared to a scrimmage is a little different. Good luck Titans. Smack the Rebels around!

 

 

 

Classy post. I will leave it at that. But, this is a new era so we will see where we go from here. I'm sorry we have so many kids coming out for football for the first time. Mercer is a huge school now.

This is great!!!! BGP'ers trash talking in the pre-season about a scrimmage.:thumb: :thumb: :thumb: Are you ready for some football?????

 

One thing is sure, Central Kentucky will be loaded with talented teams this season.

It's all Larry Vaught's fault!

I don't have a dog in the fight, but the way I see it Mercer was in the 3-4th qu while Danville had a 1.5 hour nap while Mercer played WJ. Another thing, being a small school has NOTHING to do with it. If Danville wins the big trophy in December vs 1-A schools there will be plenty of talk about how Danville could compete with/beat the bigger schools. When you are a state power, you do not hide behind smoke and mirrors and make excuses. I was surprised that the titans were able to stay on the same field with Danville. The play and attitude told the story. I saw a Monster on the ropes (Danville) and the titans were restrained by KHSAA rules...other wise the tide of the scrimmage (IMHO and all those present in my area) was about to change. NOW, I believe the hype. Respectfully, the monster didn't roll over, but made a play! That's what make Danville...Danville.

First of all, considering mercer 2 platoons i dont see it as danville being more fresh. Think about it. Their players played at least twice as many plays as mercer co. thier previous game and in their game. Thats one more scrimmage worth of plays. To say that size of a team doesnt matter is idiotic. Especially a good team that can stay fresh such as mercer. Who is to say that Danville couldnt compete. They always do! But to say they can beat every big school in the state would be a reach also. They can contend, but numbers play a role. Thats why there are classifications. Next year mercer will be at least 4A. No one is hiding. They will play St. X in the parking lot. I wasnt surprised that mercer would be able to hang in the first place. The ads moved the ball well also and played nice D. They were down a couple key defensive players as well. Danville is still Danville. I will go out on a limb and say the Ads will be 10-0 when the playoffs hit. Mercer could be too.

Enough said..

It's going to be a blast. Good luck to all.

The Walker kid who had 1500 yards and 26 td's for Mercer wasn't even dressed out. I heard he had strained his hamstring earlier that week.:scared:

Yeah, from what I heard they were just resting him for the opener come saturday. How many teams have four 1,000 yard backs returning? You think we might be able to run the ball? Our line is getting better.

The Walker kid is a good back, but he has been hurt since track season.

Well, we have plenty of backs. I say rest him. No need to rush him back. Anyone heard who will start at qb?

Yes, there are. Who was the kid at full back?

I would also like to see how Mercer handles adversity.

#44 I believe? He is a transfer from Texas. He won the Texas state championship in powerlifting last season in his weight class.

I would also like to see how Mercer handles adversity.

 

I would say we will see some this year. I don't know what to expect from LCA. But, the very next week we play South Laurel. They aint no joke. Then that game with Boyle in september. We also have a tough road game to Newport.

Yes, there are. Who was the kid at full back?

 

I didn't see the scrimmage. How did our fullback look?
