SK scored 38 points?? Good for them-they were nothing but 3 and outs in the scrimmage against CCH.

Key word scrimmage. SK subbed about every other play.

My oh my, Highlands goes from the outhouse back to the Penthouse overnight and still lots of criticism. 
I get it, Highlands is Highlands and should be winning, period.

What I have seen in a very short period of time is perhaps the greatest turnaround of a program that I have been associated with.

Are they perfect? far from it, are they great? not even close, are they good?they have always been good and now they are headed into the right direction with outstanding leadership.

Get better each week Birds, learn from your mistakes and don’t repeat them, push each other to be your best and be that team that returned Highlands to greatness.

Go Birds!!!

Well said Sweep.  Still work to be done and process is pretty simple, prepare for the next team on the schedule and take things one day at a time and one week at a time.

Sure that will be heard throughout Fort Thomas next week or might the dreaded cannon come out of the mothballs?

No criticism here!  I absolutely believe Coach Sphire is a man of many seasons.  I had a discussion with a SK grad who played at Grand Valley State during their top 10 D2 days and he said HHS play calling top notch.  He was able to to discuss how sets set things up and you don’t see that from you high school coaches.  I know where the program was, where it’s been and the vision moving forward.  Sweep I have been around along time and I an smitten with what is ahead!

The good a cast of players that find a way to win.  Noon did what I expected and Jake is not only lightning fast but can juke and then fly has added to his role and game.  No words for the running game, it needs all kinds of work. I did like Robinson on the flip. Lloyd came up big early, welcome to the party the little train that could. 
 

Defense my oh my I know it was zone gap and different reads but make your tackles finish.  It was a hit and fall off night.  Trust me film is not going to be pleasant for you!!! DB play must get better.  I had a bad angle but how many balls were caught on the backend on the end zone?  Last thought stop resting boys in the third for the 4th quarter.  Look at the mid 3rd quarter stat line it will haunt you.  
 

Congrats on another win!  You need to continue to improve.  For off-season buddy Chase great game kid, SK has to enjoy how you represent!  QB and RB strong keep working wins will come your way!  

I really enjoy watching Noon play.

So did CCH.

Oil up the cannon! The Bluebirds are back. Watch out Cov Cath!.... yeah I went there this early in the young season ? 

As much as some people have been whining on here over the past few seasons, it's incredible that just two games can fix everything. 

Truly fascinating to watch.

Agreed.  One game at a time!  What I do like kids rep for another position if depth is low for various reasons the following week.  Another nice change is that they scheme and plan for the next week.  Whether that be gap responsibility, new formation or different scheme.  2 truths about HHS program currently.  You will be about team with no me involved and 2 you will prep week to week.  I will guarantee this the program will be back on top!  Will it happen this year, they will give it their best.  Kids and Coach Sphire mesh well.  It will not be because of effort!
