The entire quote. You say they need to change their offensive philosophy despite have 3 D1 type receivers. That is a slam against their offense. But maybe i misread. Anyway, when has Boone had 3 Division 1 skilled players, ever...D1 is rarely achievable by NKY kids at the very least, with the exception of Highlands of course.

 

Correct - you misread it. D1 schools are not always the elite Notre Dames and "BIG NAME" schools. My statement was "if Boone had 3 D1 receivers". You would be surprised by how many NKY kids could be D1 if they had the correct guidance academically and athletically. It's not the high school coaches responsibility to get these kids into colleges athletically, it's mainly up to the kids and their parents. Shawn Bogle, Merceir Doucette and Cory Farris are just 3 names from Boone that had D1 potential. For Bogle maybe not at QB, but the kid was a pure athlete. And with all of the rushing yards that BC backs have acquired throughout the years, you can't tell me that not one of their O-linemen is not D1 material. D1 is achievable by any athlete in NKY, EKY or WKY. You just have to excell at your position and the aggresively promote yourself to college coaches.

 

Back to the thread subject, I think next year, Cooper will have almost just as much talent as Boone, and maybe Conner definately in the backfield and at the wide receiver positions. Last years final with CC was 20-28, a fairly close game for the Jags that could have gone their way. So, there is a good chance for Cooper to improve and slip into the playoffs. I think the BC game will come down to coaching talent, and I won't say who I'm putting my money on.

I know this is not the topic of the thread but you throw D1 caliber out there like it is common. This year, as predicted by the enquirer in preseason and here on BGP, is no-doubt NKY's best season as far as individual D1 talent. A kid like West from Conner might have been the best QB is NKY since O'toole from Dixie, IMO. But from what I've heard, he doesnt have D1 schools of any sort courting him. I truely hope NKY continues to get noticed by D1 schools. D'vontae Bradley could be one for the Class of 2011. Good luck to him and Cooper. :isurrender:

You have to remember who he plays for.
