Its pretty close. Unless you've seen it, I don't think you can grasp just how fast and powerful the game is in Los Angeles and Texas. Unlike anything we have anywhere in this state.

DFW area is the best high school football in the country- yes. I know what the rankings say, but IMO there is not a DFW team you listed that Highlands or Trinity could beat.

Sounds about right to me.

Those 15 DFW teams could all beat Trinity and Highlands, too

I see that the experts on Trinity and Highlands football are back telling everyone who is better than us. Do you all hate year-round? :lol::lol:

People who are not from Highlands or Trinity never cease to amaze me. They look for any way they can to bring these two storied programs down. I'm a Trinity supporter and I have no doubt that there are any number of teams from any number of states that could and would beat Trinity and Highlands regularly but you know what WHO CARES!!!!! Trinity and Highlands play football IN KENTUCKY. They have proven that they are the best programs IN KENTUCKY and in the long run that's all that really matters isn't it? The people that always bring up the "so and so high school would beat Trinity every time they play" are just trying to achieve vicariously what their own favorite programs can't on their own. Next year when Trinity plays it's regional schedule (because of lack of stones of Kentucky schools) they may well go into the playoffs with a .500 or worse record but at the end of the year if they win number 21 who cares?

Way to try to make a legitimate point by making one of the biggest blanket statements I've ever seen on here...

And I agree with that blanket statement 100%.

And I agree with that blanket statement 100%.

 

So you say that of the 3,316 people on BluegrassPreps, absolutely every single person who is not a member of the Trinity community or Highlands community looks for any way to bring those two schools down?

I support all KY schools, but I don't think what Born said was meant as an insult some of you guys are too sensitive. I didn't read where he said that he thought Trinity, Highlands or any other school were terrible teams.

I said what I said and after a whole lot of experience on this board I don't think that I've over reached by much. If there wasn't some intent to run Trinity down why were they even mentioned in this thread?

Having witnessed this, I agree. DFW is no worse than top three

Well, at face value, it could easily be said that folks were trying to compare the Dallas-Fort Worth football programs against what are arguably the two of the three best programs in Kentucky...

 

I mean, the first post of the thread DID ask what people's thoughts were on Cal Preps' rankings. I think people were trying to respond to that question by saying that if you look at the DFW programs who were ranked at #15, below the likes of Highlands, ranked at #13, and Trinity (who I think most would agree is likely to win in a game against Highlands) that they thought the DFW teams would win, and thus their opinion was that the poll was in error. That is why I would suppose they were mentioned in this thread.
