colonel-fan Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 All of the kids who made the team are deserving and should be commended for their performances this year. Sorry CovCath fans, but the coaches could not put your whole team on the all-northern kentucky team because there are multiple other football teams in Northern Kentucky who have some pretty good players also. Congrats to all of the First and Second team. You are all entitled to your opinion, but you should not pick and choose kids that should not be on the team. If you or your kid did not make the team. Tough!!! Go win the State Championship and then ask the kid how much he cares about being left off the All Northern Kentucky team. I think if you re-read the posts, you will also find Highlands and Holmes fans (as well as the Guru) questioning the selections as well. In fact, about the only thing they agree on is the fact the selections left somebody deserving off the teams (they would probably disagree about who should be on the teams).

This list should be about the best players not the "pretty good players." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamond Dandy Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Just goes to show you that's why they are high school coaches, and not college scouts. They wouldn't know tallent if it bit them in the.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WideOpen314 Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 The Top 24 is the list that makes sure every school is covered. This list should be about the best players not the "pretty good players." The NKY Top 24 are also kids that from what I understand get nominated for the "Thats My Boy" Award for kids that not only play football but are also good students or so they say. Apparently some schools don't always check the criteria for this award before sending a kids name in. The award should be for a kid who gives his best on the football field, is an excellent student and is liked and respected by fellow students, coaches and faculty. Hopefully some schools will do a better job before sending in someones name that doesn't meet these qualifications. Just being a good football player does not qualify one for the NKY Top 24 and especially the "Thats My Boy Award". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Qryche11 Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Although a Birds fan and nice to see several Birds on there... I wonder about a couple 2nd team picks. Outside of Schlosser and Hempfling who deserve recognition, I don't see any other Birds making this selection and if you are going to go with a DL from Ft. thomas... #92 had a better year than most. JMO....Koester prob had a better Jr year than Sr ..Congrats to all though no matter who picked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoggyDawg Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 How did Justin Young of Holmes not make the list as a LB when he was in the top 3 for total tackles ALL YEAR??? I agree, the list can't be complete without Justin Young name on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
