Pretty impressive. I wish KHSAA had the defensive stats on there. They are much more reliable than maxpreps.

I wish the stats for all teams could be more reliable these kids play pretty hard week in and week out they deserve the proper credit.

I agree with that. No way it ever happens, but it would be interesting if the state had people at games to take an official stat. I bet we'd see some different numbers.

Yes I would say we would, we had touched on this subject a little in another thread last week.

That is alot of tackles they must be the only ones who play defense and the other teams gets about 60 offensive plays on them a game. That is unheard of in my book. I am not doubting those stats but are they just getting tackles by just being close to the ball.:idunno:

Do they have to report to MaxPreps separately from KHSAA?

As far as I know.

I wasn't sure just always thought MaxPreps got them from KHSAA.

Not sure, but 15-20 tackles a game might be right for Rice. Ludlow's whole defense is based on him. Their D coordinator calls plays to open Rice up. I know that happens a lot where you rely on a nose to take 2 blockers but it can never be more true than this year with the Panther. Very rarely is it on an opposing teams 3 and out that Rice doesn't make the tackle on first and second downs. He'd do it on 3rd, but he's usually rushing the passer and forcing a bad throw.:thumb:

A LOT of statisticians give what I like to call "Pile On" Points. Meaning, if a kid is around a tackle and sort of dives on the pile, they will get credit or half the credit for making the tackle...happens a lot more than people realize and they definitely add up!

^ This is true. But I did see Greenwood play last week, and the Wilson kid seemed to be in on every play (and had two sacks). I don't recall the Smith kid's name being called much, and the Madison kid made a few plays.
