The only mobile QB that McCreary has at the HS level is Watts #23!

 

I thought both were RB's. Thanks!

4A Mcreary should edge out Single A Harlan. With Harlan being down this year, they will not be able to handle the Watts kid. Without Watts these teams would be pretty much even.

It is apparent that you are not very up to date with much of anything dealing with Mccreary Co football. MC has had 5 different receivers catch TD's this year (Watts can throw them but someone has to catch them) and Roark is as good of tailback as their is in the state. He would get his share of carries no matter what team he played for. Also, get over 4-A vs 1-A you schedule teams who are around your playing level regardless of classification examples: Belfry/Johnson Central, Danville/Boyle Co Somerset/Sothwestern and the list goes on. MC tries to schedule so they are competitive with their non-district schedule since they play in the toughest district in 4-A. McCreary's schedule for next year is a little tougher and it will hopefully continue to get better as we hope MC football gets better, But at some point along the way the Administration in MC will have to step up to the plate in order for the program to turn the corner.

I have seen them play, and without Watts this team would be in the same boat as Harlan. The Roark kid is good, but as good of a tailback as in the state that might be stretching it. Everybody has to defend Watts a certain way or he will break a game wide open. This allows other kids to break some runs or make some catches.

Stop Watts and you win by at least two touchdowns. Let him run, you lose. McCrearys line play is suspect so put lots of pressure on Watts and see what happens.

McCreary 41-14

Watts is the best running back, reciever and quarterback on this team. He also does a good job on defense. Roark is a very good back but I believe Watts has the ability to be a D1 kid.

I definately agree with you that Watts is the best athlete on the team. However, Roark is a natural tailback that can run in the middle of the field better than Watts and he still has enough speed to hurt you on the outside. These two definately compliment each other and I am glad that we have both.

DreamLand, I don't know if you have been invoved very close to any football programs but one person dosen't make-up an entire team. Our line works very hard and without them Watts and Roark couldn't gain a yard. Also, we have several young me who can catch a ball which helps when Watts throws it. So, you can see we are just like every other team it is a group effort and everyone depends on each other. The Raiders are like every one else in that we have players we don't want to do without, like Watts, because our team would definately not be as effective.But, in the same sense we would not be as good if we didn't have Roark ect... Every member of every team is important to how that team functions!

I am so glad that McCreary started to put some emphasis in football and that is evident by all of the MC posters on here. Goodness knows that if anyone is due some success on the field, its MC. Good luck to you guys. I'll be rooting for you every other night except friday. The Dragons need this one also!!

How many kids do the Dragons currently have on the team? Are the rumors of mass defections true down there?

This is completely false. I just asked my son and he said only one player had quit and that was about a month ago. Harlan has around 30 players with only 3 seniors!:thumb:

Harlan can relate to that........
