March 15, 200818 yr I say good for these 20 coaches, doing there job standing up for what they believe and asking for help to at least allow other schools to have a chance. Most people whether they admit it or not know these schools have a little bit of an advantage over others in the state, the size difference alone is extreme. Keep on speaking the truth!!
March 15, 200818 yr IMO these males should not be leading young men. These male gendered people should go coach Soccer, or maybe hockey, where a game can end in a tie, and everyone can feel better about themselves at the end of the day. WOW pretty strong words. Maybe you should try and find out some of these 20 names and visit them personally and tell them your thoughts:sssh:
March 15, 200818 yr Okay, you keep bringing up the 20 counties thing, before you keep spouting it off like it is gospel, do me a favor. Please cite to me where you heard it. I would like to know the credibility of the source. For the sake of this diatribe good sir, I would request that you provide me a list of players and counties as well. Since you seem so well versed in where our students come from, perhaps you could humor me in this rhetorical endeavor. Any assistance in this matter of dire import would be cordially appreciated. .
March 15, 200818 yr Would someone just say what 20 counties, and where they heard it? The X program tells the name of the player's church he attends. There are not 20 different counties. There are no secrets where the players are from. .
March 15, 200818 yr RP, I didn't start this "Scared" thread. I just mentioned the clock and how we had two more plays. As in sport history games are replayed over and over. Skip my posts if you don't want to read my stuff. Tony Driver, give me a break, 20 counties do not lie, its not level. Look at the past 10 years, 20 years the numbers don't lie. Larry, I have to ask, because I don't understand: What do you mean you had two more plays? Do you mean that there were two more plays planned, assuming the clock didn't run out? I was at the game, and the clock ran out pure and simple, just as we stopped your guy at the goal line. Believe me, I was watching, beause I think almost everyone on the Trinity side of the stadium was well aware of how close we were to losing that game and exactly how much time elapsed on each play. Or are you saying the clock was mismanaged, and that you actually should have had time to run 2 more plays? In that case, I think you are nursing some sour grapes, which I might be doing in your shoes as well. It's really tough to accept losing in such a well-fought battle.

March 15, 200818 yr Lets look at the reasons they are "scared". All Male students. What you're really saying is that they have "more" male students. These other 6A schools do have a lot of boys, right? They haver kids from 20 surrounding counties plus out of state. Does the Louisville school district allow kids to attend from out of county or out of state?
March 15, 200818 yr Lets look at the reasons they are "scared". Most public schools have kids go both ways, the X/Rocks have over 100 kids for the varsity alone. Most of your points are debatable, but this one I just don't understand. Why can't a school with over 1000 kids be extremely competitive in football is beyond me, I think that boils down to tradition and support. IMO, no 6A school should have very many, if any at all going both ways when you have that many kids to pick from.

Why can't a school with over 1000 kids be extremely competitive in football is beyond me, I think that boils down to tradition and support. We often hear that schools like Highlands could "compete" (whatever that means) with T and X. HHS has about 450 boys.
March 15, 200818 yr How would you divide up 6A then? I would not divide them up. I would have a seperate division for private schools then they could be assured of a state title every year and not have to worry about Male every ten years or so upsetting the apple cart. Let's face it the privates are in a league of their own, so why not give them a division of their own?
March 15, 200818 yr I would have a seperate division for private schools then they could be assured of a state title every year...That's hilarious! :lol: It's only the (unsuccessful) public programs that favor that idea. That way they can have their trophy without actually having to take the steps necessary to "earn" it.
March 15, 200818 yr That argument is so tired 'Bama, why don't you get over it, and celebrate your son's team's success, instead of belittling their efforts. Find out where Tony Driver grew up, where he played high school football, who he lived with, and then talk about kids from other counties. Weak. And you know it.

There are no secrets where the players are from. I don't know about 20 counties, but there have been articles in the C-J within the last year stating that either T or X drew from 13 counties. Not sure if this included Indiana.
