I write this as not a T or X supporter... but I couldnt pass up the chance to put my 2 cents in... Several issues here...yes T & X "dominate" almost every year but its not like they are pumping out 20 Div 1 athletes every year either. Yes, you get your Brohms, your Finchs, but by and large, you might have 2 or 3 going D1 every year. But then again, so does Central, so does Male, so does Fern Creek, Highlands, etc. I dont think its a questions of getting all the athletes, I think as I have said many times before, its a combination of things and far too many for me to ramble on about right now. The question I have is "What would you like to do with these teams?" Punishing them for winning is nothing more than sour grapes speaking, IMO. Every once in a while, there are schools that have their big runs. At some point in time, it will come to an end. Maybe some things need to change for that to happen, but it will happen. Beatty and Glasier are good coaches (not to take away anything from anyone else) but the fact is, they are good coaches that have the good fortune of being at good schools where football is a way of life. Success breeds future success and both programs have experienced good success. I dont see Glasier griping about Trinity since he keeps getting beat in the playoffs every year by T. But the fact that X beat T in the regular season shows that T is NOT invincible. The fact remains that T is a good playoff team and they know how to win in the playoffs. I dont know what the answer is but I dont think pushing them out just to make it "even" for everyone else is the answer. What happens then? What would be said if you did that and all of sudden Fern Creek were to win 4 or 5 titles in a span of 5 years?? Are people in 3A going to be complaining about Central because all of a sudden they are "dominating" the 3A playoffs?? What will people want then? I just feel that pushing T & X out of the picture in 6A is like trying to fix a flat tire by changing the driver. I dont think the real problem is being addressed...and even I dont know what the REAL problem is.

I will be the first to admit that Male has made me eat my own words. A few weeks ago I posted a thought about Male "falling" from the ranks of the "Big 3" and here they are, not long afterwards, they are in the semis with a good chance of going back to the title game. Kudos to Male for getting it turned around when they had to. Obviously, I believe the loss to Manual really got their attention as a team and they have found a way to return to dominance. Someone said to me that Male has had the "luxury" of sneaking in the back door in this tournament. I was a bit irritated at that comment as it seemed to be a slap in the face of their opponents through out the tournament. Regardless, they have been playing well and consistent no matter what others think of their competition thus far in the post season. I think personally think that if Male can ride the momentum into this game, then it appears Male feels they have something to prove. With that said, I look for a tight game early on, with Male making the adjustments at halftime and pulling away late in the 3rd. Male 42 SK 21

Normally, I try to stay out of this argument, but someone said something to me that really made me think about this more. So here is my take. Trinity and St. X dominate but it didnt happen overnight. It took a long time for them to get to this level. I am in my 30's and I can remember growing up with neighbors on both sides of my house whose sons went to either T or X. Both played football. But even before they went, to them (and their parents), it was considered a "privilege and an honor" to be able to play football for either team. When you go to a team like T or X, you are competing against probably 40 other players who vying for playing time at particular spot. This encourages hard work, committment and competition internally, thus leading to a "may the best man win, start and/or play" mentality. It was one thing to dress for T and X, its another to start and play. It reminds me of florida and texas schools...where you arent entitled to anything, you earn every bit of what you get. This internal competition only breeds hard working, committed players...benefitting the team. Second, I agree the feeder schools play a big role in helping. Optimist leagues just dont breed this kind of success. Even Fern Creek Optimist players are bound to go to Seneca, Atherton, or wherever. I would venture to say that most Catholic Middle School players have every intention of going to either X or T. By and large, these relationships and teamwork built are continuing on into HS. Third, very rarely do you see kids at public schools WANT to go to a school like Eastern, Ballard, or wherever JUST to play football. In many cases (not all) its about where you live or can get into. Fourth, I think Money and Support from fans go a long way. I dont know what the coaches make at T or X, but I am guessing its more than just $4 or $5,000 dollars per year. I could be wrong, but often times, money to pay a good staff goes a long way...kind of like "you get what you pay for". Again, I could be wrong, but if this is the case, then it would be a reason. Talking about support, its hard for kids to get up for playing in front of 200 to500 people vs. playing in front of 2000 or 3000. And if you want to play college ball, it goes without saying that playing for T or X increases your chances of getting noticed a lot more than playing at, say, Seneca. Just an opinion. I think there are several reasons for their success, none that I see are stronger or better than others. Bottom line is that X & T had a formula that began years ago and none of the other schools have caught up to it. You can blame public vs private, you can blame KHSAA or JCPS, you can blame leprechauns with magic fairies. THe fact is X & T have followed a similar recipe for success and have reaped the rewards of that formula. The same could be said for Highlands, Beechwoord, or any other school that has enjoyed success. I dont think its a private/public thing as much as it is a collection of other reasons. And unless MANY things change either at the state level or local level, it will stay this way for a LONG time. The state is NOT going to go Public vs. Private in our lifetime. But there are many things JCPS and the state could do to help schools be more competitive. Change eligibility rules, change admission restrictions, etc. Otherwise, it is the hand that has been dealt..play the cards or go home (And no, Im not a supporter of either T or X).

One other thing to consider about Green's connection to Ohio State: His dad and Brother are great men and I think highly of them. Though it may not be that big of a deal, it should be noted that when Green suffered his head injury a few years ago (a 3rd concussion in his playing career at that time, I think), either JCPS or KHSAA would not clear him to play until a doctor cleared him. None of the doctors Green went to in Kentucky would clear him. His dad and brother took him to see OSU doctors and the OSU doctors cleared him. Im not implying that anything improper took place here, but that it just stands to reason that this would be another reason to consider going to OSU, if their doctors cleared you to play the sport you wanted to play in. Additionally, I believe OSU also promised him a spot on the track team. IMO (and it isnt worth much), unless something changes, Green wont perform well at OSU in football, but he will be pretty darn good in track.

Someone asked on another thread "What has happened to Male?" I thought I would post just some thoughts on this question on a new thread: Some could easily argue that Male is just having a down year as many teams go through, but I think that is really taking the easy way out. Having followed Male since Redman's arrival (and coached for and against them during that time), I have witnessed a significant rise and fall of this program. First, I think it goes without saying that Male hasnt learned how to deal with fact that they are unable to get the number of "quality" athletes they are used to in the past. With the restrictions that were placed on getting into the traditional program (cant get in unless you come through a feeder traditional middle school), gone are the days where players can just show up and enroll in Male. Consequently, the numbers have gone down and Male hasnt been able to adjust accordingly. Sure, they still get numbers, but not the quality they have been used to for so long. Second, there is not a regular off-season workout program for these kids. It is no secret that Redman is not a big fan of weight-lifting when that time can be used to work on learning offensive schemes and such. Other teams are getting stronger. THird, Speed no longer kills. Speed is great, but talent still wins. Even at that, we have seen many teams match up against Male's speed, meaning overall, Male's team speed isnt what it used to be. Fourth, the lack of promising QBs no longer allows Male to dominate the way they used to. QBs are not as talented as the Redman, Bush's and Ahrens. Arm strength, intelligence and accuracy are not there anymore. Fifth, Defense is not as intimidating as it once was. People know how to beat this defense, with so many other schools able to throw the ball now. One of the disadvantages to leaving your CBs all alone is when there is no real pressure on the QB, they are able to throw more accurate passes downfield (see speed match-up and talent). Teams with decent QBs are having more success these days. A defense that was once feared is now looked upon as more of a "We dare you to run it against" approach. There are many other reasons one could point to, but lets face it, the once "Big 3" of Jefferson County has been reduced to 2 (T & X). With the parity now visible with so many other schools (central, ballard, manual, etc), the days of Male's dominance are gone. I personally believe in order for Male to be successful again in terms of "dominating", they are going to have to return to the basics of football, practice fundamentals, and stopy relying on talent (or lack thereof). Justin Green could not carry this team alone. In the past, Male had multiple players on their team that could pick up the slack. Today, that is no longer the case. Just as the Miami's and Florida States had a strong run of dominating teams and then faltered, so to has Male. Only time will tell if the Bulldogs will ever be able to return to a program that is worthy of once again being able to be referenced as a member of the Big 3.

:thumb: Thanks for info. As I said, I was going off what I heard and read but Im not the guru on this stuff. Some of my info comes from parties not "directly" involved but are closer than I am. I just remember coaching at Iroquois a few years ago we had a player transfer from Butler...thought all the paperwork was good and was told he was cleared...went 4-1 and then when we opened district play against Butler...lo and behold...Butler called someone and all of a sudden that player is ineligible and we had to forfeit those 4 wins. Each AD blamed the other but the bottom line for me was (and still is with a lot of these eligibility issues)...ADs, coaches and principals have a RESPONSIBILITY to make sure everyone is legit and do the right thing for the kid. What hurts is the kids bust their butt to win games only to be slapped in the face because of ridiculous errors by someone. My question is always "Do these guys handling the paperwork and ruling on eligibility realize that what they do could be the biggest difference in whether a kid goes to college or not??? Or whether a team can feel good about being successful or not??? What do they think this does to their moral (team and player) when their error costs them games and playing time. If JCPS or KHSAA or WHOEVER makes a mistakes...I dont see any punishment on them!! Who suffers?? Again...the players and team. Just sad!

I think this comes down to whether or not Male can throw the ball. Manual did a good job of shutting down Male's run game last year. Granted, Manual threw the ball well, but if Manual keeps this game close, they can certainly win it. Justin Green is back but how effective will he be? If Manual can stop the run, pressure the QB and control the game on offense, they will be fine. Male appears to be really struggling with establishing their identity. I think this will be one of the tightest games in while for this rivarly. In the end, I can see Manual pulling it off. I dont like it, but Male's best game against a quality opponent was Fern Creek. Ballard and Central ran all over them and Manual could do so as well. If thats the case, Male is in trouble. Male isnt doing well with their backs against the wall late in the game. They turn the ball over too much and panic real easily. Manual 24 Male 21

If Im not mistaken...the kids in question at Western first played at Shawnee last year, then transferred to Iroquois at some point in time...THEN went to Western. I could be wrong, but I thought that was what happened. Im really not trying to start anything, but Im going off what I have heard. The thought was that Boyd was going to get the Iroquois job and thats why they went there from Shawnee, then when he didnt get it, they left for Western. If thats the case, clearly these kids wanted to play for Boyd. Nothing wrong with that, but it does raise some questions. Bottom line is...someone somewhere didnt get the job done right in making sure these kids were eligible to play. Where is Western's AD in all this??? Why is he/she not making sure that someone with Boyd's previous history is doing things on the straight and narrow? Im not involved, just on the outside looking in...but it still raises questions about the people involved and what their ultimate motives are. Regardless of the situation, if this is twice for Western in 2 years, then that would indicate to me there is some question about the AD's ability there. But this is just my opinion. Which then bears the question...who is supposed to be ensuring the AD is doing their job? Wouldnt that be the prinicpal? And if JCPS is to blame...that is a whole other mess. Clearly there are some bad issues here and in the end...good kids who didnt do anything wrong are getting punished.

I believe if Central is to have a chance in this game, then it would be to their benefit to accomplish a few tasks: 1. Control the game on offense...take 4-5 yard gains and put yourself in manageable 3rd down situations. Keep Highlands' offense off the field as much as possible. 2. Control turnovers- Capitalize on Highland mistakes as they are few. Hold on the football to keep their Offense off the field. The more Highlands' O is on the field, the easier it will be to get worn down in the 4th qtr. Keep your defense fresh at all times. 3. Run north & south...not east-west- Highlands' LB corp is very well disciplined and the more you move east and west, the more you are allowing other defenders to come and help. Turn the corner, get up field, and then fall when you get tackled. Trying to do too much often leads to turnovers (see point 2). Anyone can see this game either being close or a blowout. Central needs to put themselves in a position where they are still close in the 4th qtr. They have enough talent to make a play or two to win the ball game. But that is going to be hard against a disciplined team like Highlands. They control the ball as well as anyone and Central cant afford to play catch-up all night by being down 2 or more scores. I think the 1st qtr is crucial for Central to score on as many possessions as possible. If you look at what Texas Tech did against Texas, they got up early, Texas fought back, but in the end, even when Texas went up, Texas Tech still only needed a field goal to win. Central could use a similar plan. Try to get up on Highlands early so that if Highlands fights back, your still not out of it. IN the end, I think the discipline and ball control ability of Highlands outlasts Central's raw speed. My guess: Highlands 38 Central 28

Fern Creek goes as their QB goes. They play the same (or similar) defense as Male (Pressure with Man to Man coverage). They have some good speed but really try to use the passing game. They got jacked against Male last week after Male ate up 33 minutes of offense with a solid running game. They arent very big but pretty athletic. Normally, Creek has good receivers, but they dropped a lot against Male. QB is pretty quick and about 6'3 or so with a decent arm.

"Ok..let's see...who's gettin flagged next?....who's it gonna be?....ah, hell...Eenie, Meenie, Miney, Moe!"

1. Oh...so that really IS an illegal procedure!!! I will let em know. 2. Sure, you can coach. Can I have drive your cruiser?

To show you how concerned Scroggins was about this game, he only took 3 other coaches with him to the game and sent the rest out to scout their upcoming opponents for the playoffs. I know Moore is down after graduating 20+ seniors from last year's squad and adjusting to learning a new offense. I believe that Bob Johnson brought in Gary Sortori to run the offense which is different than what Johnson had been running prior to this season. Moore hasnt scored more than 21 points in a game all year, is giving up over 40 per game and with 2 games remaining against Ballard and Fern Creek (assuming they make up that game), Moore will more than likely finish at 0-10. Their closest game was a 17 point loss to Iroquois. Tough, Tough, Tough year! Hope the players will see it as a rebuilding process and they dont lose anyone. Sorry...add in a 1st round playoff at North Oldham...probably going 0-11. Got to be hard on them

Probably the most impressive thing about this game (or a couple of things actually) were two SIGNIFICANT changes to Male's gameplan. 1. Male went to their old offense, running the single wing a good portion of the game. Although they ran what looked like only 7 or 8 different plays, these plays were highly effective. Fern Creek really struggled to stop Male's running game. 2. Male's defense actually played a lot of zone coverage. THey lined up in their usualy man to man and then dropped back into zone coverage. Several things happened as a result. The corner's changed what they were giving up. Instead of lining up inside of the receiver, the moved prior to the snap to the outside, forcing the receivers to go inside and preventing FC's receivers from going down the sideline. Male's front line got good pressure on the QB most of the game, forcing many inaccurate passes. A lot of passes were deflected by waiting safeties, MANY were dropped by the FC Receivers and the ones they did catch, the Receivers couldnt go anywhere because Male's speed was there to limit the YAC to about 1-2 yards. Didnt look like FC was prepared to face a zone defense, instead trying to too much to throw the deep ball into double/triple coverage. 3. Male was fired up the entire game. You could tell they wanted this game. FC's QB was frustrated throughout the game. Dropped passes, lots of hits on him as he threw...FC just looked lathargic and down after the 1st qtr. 4. Time of Possession was HUGE. Male had the ball more than double then what FC had. FC couldnt convert 3rd down plays and punted a lot. I think Male had the ball 33 minutes on offense. FC only had it about 15 minutes or so. FC's defense got wore down badly. I was surprised that FC didnt make any real halftime adjustments. Then again, they were down 24-0 middle of 3rd qtr so they didnt have time to march the ball if they were going to win. Bottom line was, Male had a nice game plan for this game and showed. They were patient, didnt try to go for the big play on every other play. They did throw deep a few times to keep the secondary from coming up all the time. I think the biggest difference (besides the TOP) was the fact that Male used an effective defensive strategy. Zone defense with good pressure, something FC clearly wasnt ready for. Best I've seen them play all year long.

The answer is that it all depends on the coach, the number of players you have on the sideline and ask yourself: "which is worth more...playing my starters and treat it as a scrimmage at the point to get more experience (and risk injuries) or play my JV guys?" In most cases, if your varsity is getting blasted by the opponents Varsity and JV squads...honestly, what good is it going to do to put the JV guys in if nothing else to get them experience. When I was at Iroquois, we kept our starters in for the simple fact that we only had about 30 players on the team, and the ones on the sidelines were mostly freshmen. The coaches decided it wasnt fair to them to get manhandled. We did change some personnel on offense a bit and moved guys around to different positions, but didnt bring in our own Freshman squad (we didnt even have a JV unit). Is there an unwritten rule?? Only if you are winning. Unless your starting QB is getting drilled all game long, then yeah, you probably want to pull him and maybe the starting RB if he is getting lit up like a pinball game. But other than that , if I had the numbers and was getting rocked like that, I wouldnt replace the whole unit. I leave my starters in and hope that they will have some success against the JV squad of the opponent, since those stats go in the books. If not...then he gets pulled and let the JV/Fresh player have some reps. But that is me. Im sure others have their own formulas for "What To Do If Im Getting Spanked 91-0"

I have been on the losing end of a game like this. Anyone remember in 2006 when Male managed to "eek" out 80 points against Iroquois? I remember the next Monday a call in show host blasting Male for an obvious display unsportsmanlike behavior. Having coached on that Iroquois team, I know first hand that Male had nothing to do it...when they say "It wasnt so much what they did right as much as what we did wrong", they mean it. Bob Redman is a dear friend of the family and he apologized after the game. I told him not to worry about it because there is no question that if he wanted to put up another 30 points he could have. When you cant tackle a QB who runs around scrambling for 12-15 seconds and then scampers 80 yards for a TD, you tend to get beat by a large margin (imagine what it was like trying to tackle Beaumont and the rest). Even their JV and Freshmen players were difficult to tackle. Sometimes, things go completely wrong and it IS a train wreck to watch. But our kids kept playing hard, knowing they were going up against a superior team. I remember Male getting booed by their own fans when they had a 1st and 10 from their own 35 and he kicked a field goal (and missed). I say this to illustrate what another poster mentioned: the score alone doesnt tell what really happened. Its a hard pill to swallow but its one of those games where you can actually just move on the next week. It sounds like the coaches did and the winning coach felt worse about it than the losing coach. If you dont coach or play in a game like that, then your judgment means nothing. It would be totally different if Male had lined up for an onside kick ahead 50-0 and then throw a deep pass (with all starters still in the game) for the sheer purpose of padding stats and kicking a team when they are down (which also happened my first year at Iroquois against Western). So there is a BIG difference between those two types of coaches. These scores happen sometimes. Many times, no one means for it to happen...it just does. Life will go on until the next team racks up 100 points on someone.

Not sure how much this may factor into this discussion regarding Central, but they just hired a coach last week to be their O-Line coach. I dont know if they have been relying on their athleticism thus far or what, but if they have been without a line coach so far, it would make sense if another coach (or several) has been pulled from their duties to work with the O-Line up to this point. This could have resulted in a lack of adequate preparation for some games. Then again, how do you perform so well against Manual and Male and not so much against Shawnee??? Not trying to take away anything from Shawnee, but I would have thought the score wouldnt have been as close. Good for Shawnee though. Glad to see they are making strides.

Several issues here, IMO. One, Male's talent continues to be on a downward spiral. The once-dominant Bulldogs could count on "Several" talented players, now find themselves extremely 1-dimensional in terms of offensive production. Justin Green can not carry this team alone and no one else seems to really be stepping up. 2) Male's offense has become too predictable. When you know that the majority of their offense is going to be centered around one guy (Green) be it a run (usually a sweep) or a screen pass (to Green), its just hard to get anything going. 3) Defense: As mentioned here numerous times, Male's defense isnt what it used to be. The "pressure defense" isnt doing the job it once was designed to do. Not to mention that it requires and relies on so much speed up front. I watched the game against Fairdale earlier and Fairdale did exactly what they had to do. They gave teh QB just enough time to throw a deep ball to a taller receiver downfield. Most of the time, the CB's found the ball too late and it resulted in a large gain and/or TD. Bottom line is that Male isnt that dominating team it once was. Gone are the days where they could line up and run what they want. In the past, Male could rely on pure talent and speed to run through their opponents. But as time has passed, Male has failed to practice and prepare a solid game plan, trying to rely on what has worked in the past. Now, teams are no long intimidated by Male. Male has become, dare I say, nothing more than just an average team. The gimmick plays no longer work. I've always said that if a team is talented enough to stuff up the middle, and get enough speed to prevent their RBs to get to the corner, then Male would struggle. Good teams have figured this out. It's sad because I like Male a lot. I hate to see them go down like this. But the truth is, now that their teams are not overloaded with speed and pure D-1 level talent, they struggle in games because their players are used to just showing up and running wild. They lack the experience in dealing with adversity against teams they normally would beat. Grinding out wins and not going for the big plays are not what they are used to. Personally, I feel that if Male is to be successful, they need to re-tool their offense to be more physical upfront. Dont expect the QB to make 15-20 yard passes, but 5 yard passes. Sustain drives, and let the game come to them instead of trying to make the homerun plays all the time. Defensively, I personally think they have to get more physical instead of relying on a defense that puts too much pressure on small CBs to play man to man. Male doesnt have that "swagger" anymore and that downward spiral could continue for a long while. They may do well in their district considering who is in there, but the bottome line is, against competition that is equal, Male will continue to struggle. The old Male could be gone. Can a new Male ever be as good as they once were? Stay tuned...

"sources" inside Male's program stating that they have a Freshman QB coming in that Redman believes could be as good as his son (chris) was. Now, whether or not this is true remains to be seen and only time will tell, but I do agree with one poster's comment...if they DONT have a QB to run Redman's aggressive offense, it will be a long year. I am also told that Redman has expressed interest in West Virginia's (soon to be Michigan) offense. Cant see Redman doing that but who knows with him. I would state that if Redman would ever swallow his pride and change his defense now that just about everyone can throw the ball, the defense is going to kill them more than anything. But that is like me stating that George Washington was the first US president...everyone knows this!

Whoever comes into coach should probably make an effort to the following: 1. Make a committment to the interviewing committee that he will be around a long time and is committed to the program. 2. Make a committment to the community and get the community as involved as possible. J-TOwn won the basketball state championshsip a couple of years ago and the community rallied behind that (parade, etc). 3. Take advantage of the youth league that J-Town and get involved in knowing those coaches (dont recruit!!) LOL 4. Have an established plan to build. Be realistic that overnight success is guaranteed but a committment to developing the younger players for the future is the key. I really think the key at J-Town, especially with a new administration, is to sell them on the committment to be there for a lengthy amount of time. Obviously things change and opportunities come up, but that would seem like it would be one of the most important things. Although im sure most coaches wouldnt say "I plan on only being here for a few years until somethign better comes along" but I would think that is one of the key things they will look for. Someone who is committed to the school and the community. Surely the administration wants someone who is going to be committed to building that program.

All the people that told me they have applied have asked me to keep quiet. They dont want to burn any bridges and would rather their current bosses find out from them then on a forum. Im sure they have probably mentioned it to their HC but its not my place to do it for them. So I will honor their request. Sorry I cant be more of help on this.

Couple of things to consider with this position... 1. Assuming J-Town interviews and hires a coach who is a head coach somewhere else, yes, it would be another school having to scramble to find them a new coach too. 2. There is a relatively new Prinicpal at the school (I believe he was the former AD and Asst. Principal at Waggener). This is probably something he will want to be apart of...not sure how that will affect the speed of the hiring process 3. no doubt they will want to get someone in as quickly as possible 4. Wonder at this stage of the game, how many current HCs would be interested in leaving their former program to go here? 5. Im willing to bet they receive resumes from a lot of Assistants...maybe look to find someone who is able to show that they want to be at J-Town for a while. Though stranger things have happened, I am skeptical that they will receive interest from current HCs. Not to say it wont happen. Just be interesting to see what kind of names they get across their desk. Dont mean to be speculative here, but I do know an asst coach at J-Town and he has applied for it. I also have been told by 5 others that they have applied. This is a good school for an asst. to move into the HC ranks. But you never know. So the question is: Does J-Town make a swift hire and hire from within the former staff or do they take their time here? Guess it all depends on who applies. The 6 people I know that told me they applied, I honestly think 3 of them would be good hires. I wont divulge names to protect their current positions...only that none of them are current HC. Also, given the recent recruiting problem surrounding the basketball coach, I would venture to guess J-Town looks REAL close at all the applicants. This is an interesting job and should make for an interesting hire.

If your coming from a program in Florida, I would say a great place to start is a county school. While Jefferson County schools are good places, they dont pay all that great and you are usually limited as to the number of asst.s you can have. I think county schools would be a great place to look...again...look for an OC position to start. Unless you are Trinity or St. X and look to other states to fill your vacancies, most schools are going to hire people they have heard of from the state. It may take a few years to get to a HC position, but I would recommend a county program before I recommend a Jefferson County school. I just think there are far too many hinderances and disadvantages to coaching in Jeff Co right now. But thats just me. Besides...I believe most JCPS schools hire people they know...as one person stated..."Its not what you know..its who you know" Good Luck
