"Coaching (Simon Kenton) cost them a state championship Miles’ senior year"

Featured Replies

Deters is just like any parent today, Thier child can do no wrong and it has to be the coach's fault. T and X are T and X for a reason. yeagle and Mueller are great coaches but do we honestly think they could beat T or X with that team and only 6 days to prepare?

 

 

 

Your arrogance is wreaking like a bad fat odor. For one define WE (mouse in your pocket?). Do you have a clue about theses game? Trinity's bingo was way down that year because X was a much better team. X beat us by 14 in an very entertaing game. Lost our best player beginng of the 4th still gave em a tussle had a bal call and lost. It happens.Believe would have gone on and beat anyone else in from of us .Problem is after kids come up there the offense never changes no matter what kind of personal shows up. They thing about the 2 sucessfull coaches, I think betwwen the 2 of them they recruirt a mighty fine team in a weeks time.

I need a translation

Probably not. This might be a silly question, but is that really an award?

 

It was in the eye's of Louisville Male that year, but when they decided to have the trophy made I'm pretty sure they weren't planning on handing it over to Simon Kenton after getting beat on their own home field.

Agree LL55. How about proofreading before posting.

If they would've face T that year,2009, they would have beat them,IMO. They came within six of beating X @ X

that season with Simpson on the sideline after the first quarter. Then X went on to beat T 34-10.

 

This thread is a joke. Get your facts right before you spew false infromation. ST. X beat them 48-34, not by six. Miles was injured in the 3rd quarter and SK actually played better with Chad Lawrence running the show in the hurry up offense because they were so far behind early on.

This is pure GOBBLEDYGOOK (any text containing jargon or especially convoluted English that results in it being excessively hard to understand, OR incomprehensible material, gibberish).

I agree with the call that the offense remains the same no matter the athlete, although he did run a little out of the "I" backfield last year to keep their QB upright. Not sure that amounts to "change", the skill set of athletes changes every year, it is your job as a coach to adjust your scheme to the skill set you have, IMO Marksberry has done a poor job of that in the past.

Apologies to the SK fans...I do not have a dog in this fight. But it seems unsavory in the least that an AD would also be the head football coach. Who's responsible for his annual evaluation? No AD should hold a head coaching position at the same time.

I am pretty sure they did not run the spread offense when Bishop was there. They ran the same offense for 3 years because THEY HAD THE SAME QUARTERBACK THERE. Last year they tried several things that did not work. Let's face it SK's offense looks similar to most other HS offenses right now. They all try to do the same things just like the NFL HS football is a copy cat league. If you went to every football program in the state of KY over 1/2 would run some version of the spread.

This happens quite often in HS athletics. It is going on right now at Cooper HS as well as Borchers is the AD and head football coach. The only thing this changes is that the head coach in question reports directly to the principle instead of the AD. They do not get to evaluate themselves.

Someone who doesn't know much about football. You can flip coaches in this game and the current T coach would have got his butt kicked by his other team.

I haven't watched SK enough over the years to know whether Marksberry is a great coach or a terrible one. But I do know that way too many folks overly discount the impact a great coaching staff has on a team's success. Those folks tend to think it's just a matter of the johnies and joes. Well a great coaching staff develops poor johnies and joes in to average players; average johnies and joes into good players; and good johnies and joes into great players. That's what helps define great coaches.

Ru, I'll go one further. Mr. Deters is an idiot of epic proportions in virtually every aspect of his life IMO.

 

Bulldog you and RU are exactly right. This man is an embarrassment to his old HS and hometown. In 08 I heard him publicly bashing Marksberry and the school system when they finished 4th in the district. It was at his restaurant before he changed the name and then the week before the State Championship he was praising the entire coaching staff. His picture should be in the dictionary under Obnoxious and Idiot.

No comment on the coaching ability of Coach Marksberry, but what he doesn't do enough of is protect his own. He chooses to stay in the background while kids that live in the SK district march off to other high schools, and that has and will continue to hurt him. There are kids spread out across NKY that should be walking the halls at SK, but do not. It's a shame that HS has become a quasi recruiting gig, but open enrollment and the parochial schools have made it to where you MUST fight to keep kids in your own district. I hear the "we only want kids here that want to be here" line all the time, but thats a cop out. Make them want to be there. Trend is continuing this year, have heard of a couple kids from Summit View that are pretty good players are off to Dixie, one of which I know is in the SK district, and I am just about 100% convinced the Stringer kid is off to Beechwood to join the Bright boys, so that's five good football players that will not be wearing SK blue. A kid here or there does not make or break a football team, but you start adding up five or six kids a year and that just kills the depth that is so important.

You obvious want to make kids remain at their schools, but I see it as a check and balance system. I think all schools should have open enrollment. If you want your school to prosper, to grow, to overachieve you have to make your school the better choice. My school has doubled in size since I graduated 20 years ago, we have open enrollment, every school in area has open enrollment. How does a school grow with open enrollment? Easy, they compete and make their school a better choice for prospective students. If a school does that, they will grow and prosper from open enrollment. If they don't', well they will suffer.

 

You don't make your school better by chaining students to the building. You make your school better by making students to want to go there.
