Boyle has not had 5 6 or 7 D1 players on their team at once... the closest they would have been would maybe be 4 in 2000 or 2001 with Travis Leffew, Brodie Overstreet and Jacob Tamme and Taylor Begley. BC has had 8 tops from 1999 to 2005. Bobby Leffew (Louisville), Travis Leffew (Louisville), Jacob Tamme (Kentucky), Brodie Overstreet (Wake Forest), Taylor Begley (Kentucky), Brad Cloud (WKU), Brandon Smith (WKU), Seth Tamme (WKU) and note that Western was I-AA at the time they recruited them.

 

Not meaning to threadjack but Jennings the kicker was at TCU if memory serves and Matt Miller was at 1AA Eastern :thumb:

The correct answer is to consolidate with Raceland' date=' [/b']no point in 2 small schools being less than 3 miles away with costs so high. Then they would be a force to be reckoned with in 4A.

 

:eek: Bite your tongue, Happy ol' dad!!!!!:fight:

I say get rid of some of those students and move to 2A.

I'd LOVE to see Russell in District 7 of 2A !!! The tough district games are a real PLUS when there's seeding for the Region.

Yeah, that's an easier road with NCC, Danville and a resurgent Ft Campbell program in the way.

 

If the idea to pick the easiest class in which to win a Title, Russell should stay right where it is.

 

:sssh:

If it ain't broke...Russell has one of the consistently best programs in the state. I wouldn't change a thing that they do!

Amen

:thumb: It would be stupid to move up. They just need to continue to play good competition outside their district.

I would concur and I believe that was the thread's original intent. :thumb:

Do you think it would be more beneficial to Russell if they were to play up, and move to AAAA? I for one think it would. I realize that Russell has been very successful in AAA, but I believe the district which they play in hurts them by not having good enough competition. Mason County is the only team in their district currently that will provide that competition. I realize that the local AAAA district isn't great at this time, but I believe it's an improvement to their current district. Can a moderator add a poll to this please. I'm not sure how to do it. Thanks.

 

 

They've done pretty well in the playoffs even with their "weak schedule". They won a state title and runner up finish while in their "weak district".

That has been discussed over and over several times in years past. I must say though that I have not heard anything about that in well over 30-35 years or more and it was shot down then and every time it has been mentioned before or since. JMO but that will never happen.

 

You're right, it will never happen but i would love to see it. It would mean more recognition and more success for area players on the state level. Too bad some people are too stubborn to allow this to happen.

Why not upgrade the non-district portion of your schedule instead of moving up to 4A? I know Johnson Central would love to get a series going with Russell.Other teams I'm sure would be interested are Ironton and Wheelersburg.

 

 

I think so to, Russell has Ironton on there schedule in 2009 and 2010.

Just how much more "recognition and success on the state level" is there in 4A vs. 3A ??

 

Judging from the message boards, a team would have to be 5A or 6A and come from NKY or Louisville to get more recognition than they otherwise would.

 

:sssh:

I heard the JFL flag league has some openings..............

 

Just stop worrying so much. Jeez! You guys have a good team, always have and probably always will. You guys are on the coaches, the offense and whatever else you can complain about. Have fun and enjoy your boys and the season. Weeks go by so fast as we sit and contemplate the "what if's".

We will agree to disagree here, if that means that I am to stubborn then I guess that I am.....guilty as charged.

I am one that would be against it and am quite frankly glad that it will never happen.

OH NO YOU DIDN'T!!!!!!:scared:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(You forget you can be a NKY 1A team as well)
