No advantages for WV to play them till they have to.

?Oh boy....

This comment is spot on.

Great game and hats off the WC, they battled till the end.

No saltiness at all good luck this week!

We will never know but I would liked to see that game.

It is by the way they play on it and have a power run game with a larger line and Cline knows how to play on it. They throw goes and outs and WV could not keep their footing. I did not give a lot of credence to it until I saw it. I don't think that they will beat Beechwood but I do think that it will be closer than if it is on turf. Walton had not played in the mud all year and it showed. I doubt they had to water the field given the rain and I have no idea if they ever have done that but there was inches of standing water on the field. It will not be in good shape for this game

Drive is good and easy there!

Even if it was Arizona weather and sunny will that field will not be dry. It is a cow pasture and almost completely mud beyond repair this year. They definitely see it as an advantage and will not let it be moved if they can help it. Bring the the long cleats!

I think that this is a good job still. No doubt!

Hmm...

What do you base your knowledge of that on?

Agree to disagree on that point.

Yes, Walton has made it to a final 4 by beating a Glasgow team(This should have peaked your interest) with several D-1 recruits one holding an offer from Alabama. They play this Friday night for a second trip to a state semi final. He has not lost a district game since 2013 and yes it is a weak district but none the less he has dominated it. The argument then is only that his resume is only not good enough not his coaching abilities because he has done more with less than most.

Are you asking for his resume or are you making the point his resume is not enough? The point was made twice or three times that he is not a good fit. My question is why is he not according to the people who have said he is not a good fit?

Interested on why you think Jeff Barth would not be a good fit?

They are, but if they come to come play this year this is a more than winnable game. They got a late start(COVID guidelines) compared to other schools with practicing. The passing game has become more prevalent this year and it took sometime for it to develop. The pieces have been coming together(New coaching staff members, COVID, injuries and practice time). If they can put the effort together that saw them easily handle Louisville Holy Cross and Carroll County last week, they will win this one.

WV comes to play in this one and wins.

The game the Bearcats played against Cooper was at Cooper's home field actually.

Alot of variables in this game and it will be interesting to see how big a variable the shortened/limited practice season is. WV returns most of the team from last year and I know NCC returns skills players from last year. Should be an interesting game.

Congrats to Walton Verona's own Travis Brauer! Nobody out works him on and off the field. Two way player who played on both sides of the ball well.

Congrats to Covington Catholic!

I watched the play several times on video and it was the correct call. This post nails it.

Wow, not a player from Walton Verona on the list and they had the district player of the year at QB/DB. They made the regional final largely on his shoulders as well. Travis Brauer should be on this list!
