Make it stop!!!!!! Highlands beats CovCath for first time since 2015 and this is what we get?

Well I attended this slobberknocker and saw a lot of good and definitely some things that need work. Number 1 thing for me was the heart, attitude and hustle shown by the kids last night. That has been missing for several years and was nice to see. Keep working boys, this is just one game and next week is just as important if not more. Noon as I have said all year is special and he showed out big time. Kudos to Burleigh on kickoffs last night, well placed in corner and helped stifle the return game as well. Seems special teams are starting to become special again. Hosea is my number 1 back before and after the game. Runs hard and with a purpose, okay gaining 4 rather than trying to hit a home run on every carry. O and D lines, kudos to the guys for bringing it last night. Well done. Lastly, the defense for bringing the wood, really like the way Robinson and Dunn carry themselves on the field, they are the leaders. Now for work, still not keen on the play calling. Some nice plays called and some leave you scratching your head. Benke is a big kid and needs to be coached up to stand tall in the pocket and deliver the pass. Confidence is a big thing for a QB at any level and I think this would help in that process. I like many am concerned about cornerback play. Cushion was way too much on the late CCH touchdown drive. Now on to the most important game of the year. Keep working, hustling and believing and good things will come your way.

Didn’t he throw spitballs or something?

It was being put out by both schools. Only passing along what I read.

Well Twitter said to buy them ahead of time.

Yes it was.

Agree 100% except for a few things. Let’s not forget Abner, Dierig, Cottingham, Spritzky, Barth, Beagle and Herrmann. Nastiest group to ever walk on the field IMO. Took points, first downs and yards gained personally like I have never seen since. Skip Hicks was mastermind of the defense and Bill Herrmann just let guys play.

Well said.

Nobody has mentioned the 1982 Birds. Now that team might have been the best defense ever at Highlands.

I have not seen CovCath at all this year. Highlands offensive line can hold up imo. Defensive line, not so sure. Question for defense to me is if you are willing to gamble a little and create pressure. Charlie Noon will be the most dynamic player on the field and if Birds can get him enough touches it good be a good night. Without question Highlands has a good chance to win this game but to me the biggest question of all is the offensive coordinator.

No need to get to 60 unless JV guys do it. Use game to work on things and once comfortable get some other guys in the game.

So Meyer coming back and going where?

We can only hope.

I get it. Thanks for clarifying.

Confused. You said you have not seen Highlands play, but criticize the coach style of play? Then most of talk is about Simon Kenton. Highlands had their coach and ran him off after taking them to state. Sometimes what goes around comes around.

It was not 85, but 89 I believe. There was no question it was targeting. Not helmet to helmet but a shot to the head area.

We recognize Birdsfan and other members our graduating class with two scholarships to graduating seniors. It was his idea to start it and it has continued on since.

Looks like things might be heading in the right direction for the Camels, now can they stay the course and keep building week to week.

Highlands owes the Cougars for some defeats in recent years.

Thought Highlands played a complete game for the first time this year. Offense, defense and specials were all solid. Agree with others on Benke, stand tall in the pocket, step and throw. Sometimes looks like he is throwing a split finger fastball. Specials continue to improve, but kickoff return does not appear to have a scheme, need to work on that. Also did not understand the angle kickoff, use the kids ability to bury the ball in the corner and keep teams from getting to the 20. I have seen it work very well at college level. DB’s a little concerning, but keep working on the craft. Overall good game and emphasis needs to be on getting better every week in each facet of the game.

Running clock is coming. If you run a quick offense it better be efficient or this is what happens.
