I get the feeling that Atherton does not inspire the feel-good-story feelings of the Louisville folks... 

I think that ship sailed last year. Or the way it seems. 

My friend @PurpleTim reminded me of a funny, funny quote that Charles Barkley (huge fan) made during the 1992 Dream Team when the US was getting ready to go up against Angola.

Barkley said "I don't know anything about Angola, but Angola's in trouble".  HA!

I honestly feel pretty much the same way about Atherton.

Atherton has a couple of kids with  really good speed but they do not have near enough talent to make this competitive. That being said, what they have accomplished is amazing given where that program has been the last 30 years. Its going to take a few more years to get on the level with Bowling Green.

Love what coach White has done at Atherton!

But this one will be a tough one. BG 42-6

My only question is, will coach White get a bigger JCPS gig after this season? I would think so.

Maybe a “Bulldog” gig?

That all may be true but he could use some tutoring in class & sportsmanship. IMVHO.

Based on what examples?

Based on what examples?

• Running up scores on Outmanned and clearly lesser (talent wise) opponents.
• Leaving Starters in long after Running Clock games established.
• Continue Passing Game (ie "throwing long bombs") in RC games.
• Understand in one game went for 2- point try when he just went up 47-0 (and made it)
• Refusing to agree (initially) to shorten  2nd Half  quarters in a RC game at request of Opposing Coach 

I stated in my VHO...................

those are examples of classless and bad sportsmanship in my book..

Congratulations to Bowling Green Coach Mark Spader on being named National Federation of State High School Association "State Coach of the Year" for Football!

Congratulations and well deserved!  Go Purples!

Bump.

Curry a nice back for Atherton if he’s playing.  Transferred from St X last year.  BG and O played a flag filled game last week so I look for a clean game from the purples 49-21.  BG starters out after first half with a 35-0 lead.
