Why is NKY 6A so average?

Featured Replies

You can't pay tuition to attend the school. You must live not only in district, but in the area for that school within the district. That is the only way you attend one of the Boone County Schools, unless your parents teach there.

Look, I know I am sounding like a chest pounding arse here, but this argument gets tired. There is a sentiment that because down here in Louisville we do things different, the results would be so. I am not so sure.

 

Don't worry NKY 6A teams don't back down from the big bad T or X! Someone in NKY 6A will beat T and X(SK when Kuntz is a Senior).:D

Don't worry Elder will give T the reality check.
That could very well happen. Keep in mind, our goal is #21 (that's state championships homey)....The Pit is nasty, and we have not had success there. I do think our team has the chance to be special this year, but we're only 2/14 of the way at that goal.
Without sounding too aloof on the subject...
Yes, because that would be bad. :cool:

Agreed and like I said before, until NKY's population doubles, or really more like quadruple's then they won't have nearly the numbers/talent to pull from that Trinity or St. X does. If NKY were to grow like that they'd build plenty of schools to support that growth and thus continue to keep the talent spread thin.

 

I guess maybe the best comparison is that alot of people from Louisville are acting as though Louisville is comprable to NKY in over all size which is some what accurate, but when you break NKY down into 3 counties, and then districts that don't have open enrollment, etc, well suddenly there's a huge disparity. Example being Kenton County has open enrollment among Dixie, Scott, and Simon Kenton, which has a population of roughly 158,000, which is like 1/5 of what Trinity has in just Louisville. So IF you assume that kid's are going to the school of their choice for football then that leaves the total population choosing between 2 different PUBLIC 6A schools(Dixie & Simon Kenton), however we can't forget like Clyde and VOR said above; although Kenton County has 3 public schools only 2 are 6A, and then we have Beechwood, Lloyd, Cov Cath, Holmes, Holy Cross, and Calvary Christian. Just more thinning of the talent, and again this example is only in Kenton county which has around 1/5 of the population Louisville does.

It sounds to me as if open enrollment is the issue. Not the fact that we "harvest" said talent.

Why aren't they on our schedule in this year's regular season? Pertaining to the latter part of your post.....when?

Kuntz is only a Sophomore first year starting QB.

^ k?

 

 

His Senior year he will be ready to beat T!

Come on man, simplify your fractions.

^ Sorry. 1/7..... :laugh:

Outsiders meaning there are no boundaries.

 

Boone is the only 6A team that was ever a powerhouse. They used to have a lot of kids that now are going to Boone/Ryle/Cooper. Again, talent is thinned out.

 

It's not rocket science. Coaching is fine. Individual talent is good. Commitment is good. Just spread out. That simple.

 

I completely agree; since Ryle and Cooper has been built, football teams changed completely.

Fans like yourself are why people support two separate divisions in high school football, private and public. Humility goes a long way.

It's a numbers game.

 

Keep in mind I had a public school education, but after looking up enrollment (9-12) numbers in the state, here are the totals and averages

 

Total enrollment of male students (not doubled, total)

Louisville - 16,586

NKY - 8,376

 

Publics

Louisville - 12,882 (Avg. - 644 per school)

NKY - 7,229 (Avg. 451)

 

Privates

Louisville - 3,704 (617 avg.)

NKY - 1,147 (286 avg.)

 

 

When you have a larger pool to pick from, you have a better shot at getting more and better players
