  1. In the prediction thread loveoffootball said that to be able to attend Ft Campbell High school the students have to have either a mother of father serving in the military with a Ft Campbell military unit . That is a very restrictive admissions policy if true . more restrictive that any other private school in the state. He also stated that a lot of the students and and I'm assuming that some of the football players are included in this statement come from other states besides Kentucky . Is this statement true . Does this make the team an all star team a term that has been applied to other private schools on this web site . Again Congrats on an impressive win .

     

     

    Yeah, we are a real restrictive school. It is true, most of the kids are from out of Kentucky, alas, some were born out of the country!!!gasp. We are one of the only a few elusive private schools that give out 'team members' the opportunity to wake up in the morning and say "goodbye mom/dad, I will see you in a year or so." Unfortunately, we are one of the only 'private schools' that sometimes that parent doesn't make it back. So, yes, our admissions is restrictive. You have to live on post to attend, even if you are a service member family.

     

    And, yes..the pot and the kettle. I am not sure which one I am. I think I like the kettle because it has a nice ring to it.

  2. You know, I was just expressing my thoughts and perceptions about the game the same way that others have about NCC. It doesn't matter. I know what I saw and heard. That's all I care about.

     

    Once again.....congrats to FC on their win. We'll see you next year.

     

    I was reading this and though that I would put my two cents in..if they are even worth that. First, let me start out by calling them the RIGHT name..Newport Central Catholic..my son wrote on here about them and called them 'Newport' and I was amazed that everyone was so perturbed by calling them that. He is a kid, and you all knew what he was talking about, just as if you were to say that NCC and 'Fort' were playing. Everyone would know that the Fort you replied to was not Knox or the others because you knew who you were playing.

     

    Secondly, I wanted to just blow this off..BUT...A group of people that WERE THERE and some that were ON THE FIELD, felt that it was the exact opposite. We were talking about the disrespect and the foul moths of NCC. I would never have said anything because players get all riled up all the time and what normally wouldn't have been said or done..well, it happens. However, the disrespect and the language by NCC was outrageous. Especially before they had scored. Then, talk about the jeering after the FALCONS fell behind. I am not saying that 'Fort'..you all know who I am talking about..were angels. But, wake up and smell the coffee on your own side. Even in the pre-game interview, the disrespect for the Falcons was very open. I know that NCC felt that we somehow won on a fluke last year and their Coach made that apparent in interviews that he had given. Look those up, I am not making it up. Coach Berner went out of his way to talk about the achievements of NCC and what a great game he expected it to be. What will it be this year? Falcons talked smack and it cost us the gain even though we got hit with a personal? The truth is, Coach Berner would jack them up if he felt they were being out of line because he holds them and himself to a great standard.

     

    Like I said, I would never have mentioned this because it is unsportsmanlike of myself to be doing so..but I will not sit by and let people think that our group of kids are trashy or unprofessional in any way. All players talk a bit to some degree. So, you thought the Falcons were dirty? Well, there were quite a few others who saw it another way. Who is wrong or right? Probably seeing it two different ways and we will leave it at there. Look at any FC Supporter on here and you will not see anything offending the players personally like that. You can see that other schools have offered their opinions on the integrity of our school. We never said anything when we entered the game as the number one 2A school but were predicted to lose. That is unbelievable. The truth is that NCC and FC both deserved to be in that game. The truth is that the Number one team entering is still the number one team. It was a great job by both schools and an exciting one, just as it should have been for two outstanding competitors.

     

    Congratualtions to the FC Falcons and don't let anyone try and bring you down!!! We know what you have done and what you have given up to accomplish your goals. Congratulations Coach Berner and the other Coaches for sacrificing so much time and giving so much to the kids. Those lessons will be kept with them for a lifetime.
