I don't know of anyone who said that Ryle could play with the big boys of Louisville. Actually in prediction thread I believe I said SC would win this game.

 

Yes I believe Altcat thinks this is an SK thread

Tough ending for the Raiders

 

Parents, focus on the many achievements. Remind your boys that they are dudes that play football rather than football players. Their identity isnt totally wrapped up in the Friday night outcome.

 

Players, the football thing ends before you know it. A moments sunlight fading in the grass. Get all the meat off of the bone. Then walk away and smile.

Solid post! :thumb:

Nice season Raiders still not better than 87 or ❤️94 rebels.

This Ryle football team was fun to watch this year. They were in this one until the end. Had a great group of seniors and plenty of great players coming back.

Didn't Ryle get a little greedy when all they needed was a field goal.

I believe they were on the 40 yard line and it was second down.

 

If Morgan could have thrown the ball two more yards it was a TD. The CB was beat but the ball was under thrown.

Good lord.

Great high school football game. Great atmosphere. Great season by Ryle! Only 6 teams in the state of Kentucky season end the way they want it too! Ryle had a great season that everyone should have enjoyed and to be proud of. It was fun football all season. thank you to the coaches and players for great entertainment this season! Hard work pays off. looking forward to seeing this team again next season!

Great game as I expected, too bad someone had to lose.

I believe he's referring to some comments made in the SK/Ryle game thread that futurecoach just brought back up.

Congratulations to the Senior Raiders and to Coach Mike Engler on a great season.

 

What has Mike Engler and this group of upper classmen done at Ryle the last 3 years?

 

2013: 2-9 (Season before Engler arrived)

2014: 5-7 (Engler's first season. Last 6 games of season: 4-2)

2015: 9-3 (Including win at Engler's former team, LexCath in Bluegrass Bowl)

2016: 12-1

 

Coach Engler, the players, the parents and the administration and fans of Ryle have to be excited about the trajectory this program is going.

This was a solid Ryle team but nothing super special imo. The QB was great. Solid line play. Decent defense. But, 2010 Ryle with Elliott was better.

 

This loss even supports that opinion. Scott County isn't as good as advertised or even as strong as they were last year. They almost and probably should have lost to Highlands this year. It seems a few N Ky teams(Ryle, SK, and Covcath) had the false pretense that they were improved because they defeated the weakest Highlands team that anyone still alive can remember.

Ok I see what he was referring to and those comments are definitely a bit much. However I do think Ryle could play with X and Male and let's face it NO ONE is going compete with Trinity.

It looks like things turned around with the addition of Morgan in 2015.

Mr. Morgan left some mighty big shoes to fill, anyone have any ideas on who the leading candidates will be?

None of those teams thought they were something special because they beat highlands, give me a break.
