WOW. May try to make that trip.

Should Ky drop down to 5 classes? Or maybe even 4? Should every team make the playoffs? Maybe not make it only 2 from each district but maybe the top 3. District champs get a bye for week 1 while the 2nd and 3rd place team from cross district play to meet district champs. That way MOST teams would still make the playoffs but at least you would have to place at least 3rd in district to make it. Playoffs would still be 5 rounds but District champs would get a bye for week 1. Should Guardian Caps be mandatory for youth and middle school football? CalPreps is not perfect but could Coach's association submit a proposal to KHSAA to try it for a 1 season trial to see if it works better?

I don't see any big issues with it. But it does seem odd to me.

Nelson Co's coach?

2024 Lincoln County Patriots
BEChargers replied to Shaquille_Oatmeal's topic in KY Football (High School)
I gotta be honest, I don't know Coach Rogers at all. Heard a lot of good things about him though. Pretty sure there was an issue with one team having two games scheduled for the same date. Honest date mix up. Forcing Lincoln to go looking late. But, Lincoln was only down 2 scores at halftime. I don't ever really think they were going to make it a game late, but they competed and were able to move the ball at times against a good football team. My point is that I believe the Scott Co. game helped Lincoln. As opposed to what the Danville game will do for them this coming season. I do understand a new coach needing W's though. I really do. New coach, home town guy, great player at the same school. I just wonder what the reaction would have been if Coach Jaggers had paid 3 grand to buy out a contract before he had coached his first game because the team would be to tough for them. They'd have called him a coward, or soft or questioned how he expected to get better just playing easy teams. I hope Coach Rogers makes a good run at Lincoln. I really do. Just seems to me the biggest problem with Coach Jaggers was that he wasn't Coach Rogers. -
2024 Estill County Engineers

5-6 last year. When you say "just fine" is that a reference to this coming years schedule or just the program as a whole going forward? -

Danville doesn't bring any fans. Not anymore. -
2024 Lincoln County Patriots
BEChargers replied to Shaquille_Oatmeal's topic in KY Football (High School)
The Russell County game was a tight one last year and Steven French takes over the HC job there this season. I don't think it's a gimme, but I would still favor the Pats. I think the Somerset game would be tough for them to win. But if they are undefeated going into that game, who knows. -
2024 Lincoln County Patriots

I would think they would be happy with 7-5. Should beat Bourbon, Russell Co., Danville, Bullitt Central, Wayne. Think Garrard is a toss up. Then maybe Taylor. I think 7 wins would be a pretty good season this year. -
I should also say this and it's just my opinion from observations and conversations. There have been times over the years that I think the County has been anywhere from lukewarm to very interested. But I'm not sure there has ever been a time that the City has been very interested at all. A couple of time the DISD has gotten in pretty bad shape financially and some preliminary discussions took place I believe. But that hasn't been the case in a long time and right now I don't believe either side has any interest in a merger whatsoever! So we will probably just keep hearing rumors about it happening for the next 30-40 years.
-
Even if they did, I think they would now keep it a two-school district. For most of my life there have been speculation that it was only a matter of time and that it would become one large high school. But now I'm pretty sure the schools would still stay separate under one administration umbrella instead of combining into just one high school.

Russell County hires Steven French
BEChargers replied to theguru's topic in KY Football (High School)
No, he was the OC for most of his time at Russell Co. Moved to DC with the most recent HC, Lucas Ford. I assume Coach Ford was an offensive coach and wanted Coach French to stay on staff so Coach French moved to DC. As with most high school football coaches I think they all can, and usually need to, coach both sides of the ball. But Steven is an offensive guy. He will run the offense for Russell County. Don't know the staff well enough to know who his DC will be. -
I came back to this thread to see who Trinity plays on Sept. 6 and while reading I noticed this post. There are only 2 public high schools in Boyle County. Good luck to Trinity this coming season.
-
Gonna be tough for Boyle to find a game I think.
-
Just saw a post that Boyle is now looking for a game for 9/6/2024. So it looks as though the Boyle/Danville game will stop a year sooner than anticipated. It says "due to late cancellation", so I assume Danville is buying out the contract.

Russell County hires Steven French
BEChargers replied to theguru's topic in KY Football (High School)
He knows football. With the new facilities, it seems the school is upping it's support. If he can get the best athletes in the school to come out and get community going with him I think he can have success there. -
Russell County hires Steven French
BEChargers replied to theguru's topic in KY Football (High School)
I don't know Steven's bio very well but I know he played for his dad at Meade County. He was also on staff with Larry at Boyle when they won the '09 and '10 state 4A titles. Couple of years after that I think he moved to a position at Central Hardin for several years. He rejoined his dad at Southwestern as OC for the next several years and I believe he's been at Russell County since they both left Southwestern. I thought Steven should have gotten the job the last time it came open, but I'm glad he's getting his chance now. -

Times may have changed but 3000 seemed to be the magic agreed upon amount for a long time. But again, things may have changed. -
Congrats Coach Jaggers !

Open Job: Russell County
BEChargers replied to Colonels_Wear_Blue's topic in KY Football (High School)
Surprised that Steven French is not being given a shot. Tons of experience with top level programs.
