Option V

Raceland's Tyler Farley put together a very impressive season this year under center.

What does the 4A playoff picture look like? I didn't see a seperate thread(must be overlooking it)

ACS's D is playing outstanding football, I think someone has said it before, Defense wins games this time of year.

I look for big things to come in the next two years; I feel the Sophomore class is loaded with talent, which should make for a competitive and fun district.

Raceland's - Josh Reed and Joey Miller

East carter's - Seth Greenhill and Brett Carra

Ashland's - Sam Hunter

Russell's - Sean Murphy and Brian Conley

Boyd County's - Trey Salisbury and Cory Smith

Rowan's - Brett Tackett

Just to name a few, in no particular order. Just throwing some of the up and coming talent out there - for discussion.

Hopefully Corey will get a reversal and be eligible to play this season. He is an outstanding young man and fun one to watch even if he is dropping 30 on your team.

Greenup lost a couple fine players both are playing baseball in college Logan and Craft. Those are some pretty holes to fill also.

So true, two very gifted players. Will Matt Jones be Craft's replacement at SS?

Greenup and East will def. be the favorites, but do not be shocked to see Raceland make some noise, they are going to be a young team but a talented bunch.

Congrats Rams.

I think this team is finding their Identity, and realizing that they may not be the offensive juggernaut (like last year’s team) but they are quickly becoming a Defensive team. Nothing wrong with a little pad poppin and a few snot bubbles on a Friday night.

Ram's ball to start the half???

Does the game still have a 7:30 kick-off?

^ Way to go Dennis!!! Looks Awesome!!!

. But we all know why private schools are better than public.

Call me ignorant, but I do not know why. Do tell.

Congrats

To be honest, I'm tired of the drama. This is directed at those involved, not you or GC or Raceland, etc.

What would High School be with out drama? One thing is for sure there wouldn't be much on TV. :jump:

Looks like it is going to be a fun night for the boys... I always enjoyed playing in the rain. Hope a win comes with the fun.

Sounds like some great bulletin board material. *GO GCHS*

Brad Hood of Allen County should be added to this group(IMO) 2007 the Patriots went 1-7, 2008 9-4 lost in the 3rd rd of the playoffs and they are off to a 3-0 start this year.

NCLB has zero bearing on athletics, and it shouldn't.

But the school is the directing force, the head of the snake so to speak in athletics... So you are telling me that if a student athlete’s school is not living up to standards, they would have to sit a year if moving to a new district because of the stimulation in NCLB... Sounds odd to me. Ya would think logic would prevail and academics would come before athletics, and a student athlete would not be punished for trying to improve his/her academic surroundings. (my morning rant):isurrender:

All this talk about transferring has be wondering... According to NCLB act a parent can move his or her child if the schools overall tests score do not improve (paraphrasing) Say if a school district fails to perform or improve performance in test scores and the parents elect to move his or her child that has played in a(or a bunch of) varsity game(s) do transfer rules still apply? Or are they null and void?

I agree. A coach might be able to mix up formations and play calls with the best of them, but it's probably difficult to get a group of high school athletes to execute "multi-dimensional" game plans from week to week. It's kind of like being the jack of all trades and master of none.

 

Russell's coach Ivan McGlone is who immediately came to mind when I saw the thread title, but as others have posted, that's not necessarily a bad thing. The proof is in the results. Keep it simple! :thumb:

Lombardi said it best--> "KISS = Keep It Simple Stupid..." :notworthy:

Times have changed when I played ball, Freshman team meant 9th graders only, if we didn't have enough freshman to field a team we went with out, JV meant 9th & 10th graders (non playing Varsity 9th and 10th graders), and Varsity was 9-10-11 & 12 and one season an 8th grader started varsity

Who is playing qb for raceland?

Ram fans and GCHS fans are invited to a spaghetti dinner tonight at Raceland High, from 5:30-7:00. Cost $5.00 adult, $3.00 child under 10, all proceeds go towards Ram's Baseball.

Great meal, before a Great game, for a Great cause.

Word on the street is that Carter practiced yesterday. Can any Musketeer fan confirm or deny this? Just asking?

can neither confirm nor deny... :sssh:

Yeah, o.k. :ohbrother:....if that is your story then stick to it.
