Boyle County's schedule is tough! It looks like Coach Pardue has no backdown in him.....

 

or, did he inherit this schedule from Coach Smith? Those first five games will make Boyle County tough for later in the year if they can get through them and stay healthy. I wouldn't expect a lot of wins out of those first five, but that is just my guess.

 

 

It's Pardue's 3rd year next season so this is his schedule.

 

I think it's even beefier than ever and commend him for that. Boyle hasn't run away from anybody here. :thumb:

 

 

RebelK,

What we must realize is that there were no kids in any grade "mistreated" or looked down upon. This years seniors at the beginning of the year thought that just putting on the black and gold made the team winners, and that was definitely proven otherwise. Once they figured out how to go back to work the hard way after the Southwestern game, they were a better football team. That is what this year’s group has to figure out. Black and Gold doesn’t make you a winner, the work and preparation that they do in the off-season, and in the summer makes the Black and Gold Winners.

Lets face it, there was not as much talent in the upper-class (Junior's and Senior's) as there has been the past 6 or 7 years. There are several contributing factors; such as -several really good players from that group didn't stick it out and play four years. There are several walking the halls that if they had bought in to the system and played, could've helped this year's seniors compete for a championship. However, there are several that couldn't stick it out for four years. That is something that the graduating Rebs should be proud of. It isn't easy and they made it. With that being said, the overall talent level of the Freshman and Sophomore group was better (they just didn't have the size in the end). That is just a fact. That is why BC started 7 sophomores and a freshman. By the end of the year, some of the upperclassmen stood up and showed the young guys how to win. If our schedule had been reversed, BC would've easily been 8-2 or 9-1 going into the playoffs. It just took a while for them to figure out how to win the close ones.

Coaches make the decisions that are best for the TEAM. I have never met a coach that didn’t try to put the best 11 players on the field for whatever reason, and if the ones on the field don’t get it done, then you simply replace them. That is coaching in any sport at any level. These men that are coaching our youngsters are proven winners. Let’s get behind them and our kids and take State. I will never bash a coach at any level. All parents, think they know what is best when our kids are on the field, but the bottom line is, the coaches are in that position for a reason, and we are not!

With that being said, there doesn’t need to be anymore Old Talk about last season. The Rebels have a challenging schedule in front of them and those sophomores and freshman grew up a lot this year. So if this years Seniors and Juniors to be can lead them, I see absolutely no reason why the Rebels won’t be a contender at THE BIG SHOW in Louisville. All of the fans need to get behind them this year. I think there we had a lot of fans that jumped ship and were way too quick to criticize coaches and/or players. The bottom line is we don’t know what goes on up there everyday with kids and how they practice/lead/etc. I’m through with my rambling, but lets look forward to the future of BOYLE COUNTY FOOTBALL! Good luck in 07 Rebs!

Must we? We got throught his year and my greatest wish is that everyone and I do mean everyone, learned a lesson this past season. I can't speak for every senior, but I can assure you that not all seniors thought that just because they put on the black and gold meant that they were going to win. I know one of those seniors who worked his rear off to be on that field and I just can't let anyone take that away from him. I wish next years team the very best.

Good schedule for the Rebs. I hope they don't play too well on Nov. 2.

Correction

Week 7 West Jessamine

Week 8 Mercer Co.

Which games are home games?

Looks like this schedule will be a big time gut check for the Rebels. I think the '07 Rebels have a lot of potential, and could very well contend for Sate. I too, would love to see Coach Pardue take back control of the offense. He is an awesome offensive minded coach. As he proved by leading our offense to 5 straignt championships.

 

I would also like to see Jordan Auhmiller played at Wide Receiver/Tight End next year, I think he's too good of an athlete not to be on the field on the offensive side of the ball. He has the frame of a Jacob Tamme, and with some weight and strength training during the offseason, he could be an effective receiver.

 

Good luck Rebs, I can't wait. Stay dedicated this offseason, and work hard.

Is it too early to predict the final reg. season record? I think not. I think the Rebels of Boyle Co. will go 8-2 losing to only Bowling Green and Lexington Cath. They will win close games with Henry Clay, Danville and Southwestern.

Will also beat Mercer Co, Lafayette. and Dunbar by two to three TDs, and will win the rest of them going away. The Rebels will go deep in the playoffs, may make State. Now lets get it on. Go Rebels.:banana:
