  1. He was only putting up a partial amount for Boone, not the entire amount. The school board wouldn't match as they'd also have to turf the others.

     

     

     

    Ryle had private donors that covered 100% of the cost.

     

    Who covers the cost of on going maintenance on Ryle's field? When the time comes for a replacement, who will cover that expense?

  2. I do not believe it diminishes the award. It calls into question the process/criteria. Several folks have had questions on here about the process. To me -- how did Hendrix win 6A POY over some of the finalists for Mr Football but not make the final list for Mr Football? I don't think anyone has a problem with the players on the list. They are all very, very good players who have had an outstanding year and would deserve to win it.

    All awards, however, do have questions about the process/criteria they go through. And when the finalists or the winners are announced there will always be opinions about who made it and who didn't. Go through all-state teams, all-star teams, pro bowl selections, etc and there is usually some opinion piece about who should have made it. Who made the final four for the college football playoffs -- there were some different opinions on that. The people who vote have to make a decision and not everyone can be on the list. Just the way it is.

     

    I get what people are saying about the criteria question for sure. It's a confusing situation. The year Barker won 5A POY, someone else from 5A was Mr. FB. Dante Hendrix should of absolutely been a finalist for this award. No way the 6A POY is not a finalist.

  3. Was attempting to get into Mario's (a great spot btw), and apparently had been banned there due to previous incident/s. Grabbed the officer by both of his wrists who happened to be 5'9" 145. Then walked away disobeying the officer's commands to stop and put his hands behind his back. He finally succumbed and they booked him into the jail. Idiot.

  4. Don't understand why people are like this to kids. Yeah he's committed as a place holder, but still. Colleges do similar things. They'll offer a kid as a backup plan and such.

     

    There are limited spots in classes. Some schools are only going to take so many of a certain position. Also nobody should be upset that he's enjoying being a high school recruit. Why would he pass up official visits?

     

    We can agree to disagree. My take is if you are committed, you shut it down. You have done your homework and know where you want to be. If you want to continue to go on visits, then don't commit.

  5. Well State is was 5-7 so the real question is how did they make a bowl game haha.

     

    I think Dan Mullen bet on the game and tried to lose intentionally or something. Seriously

     

    Very strange decision by Mullen to go for it on 4th down deep in Miami territory after losing his QB. Could of kicked the FG to go up 4, but went for it and gave Miami a chance to win it with a FG. Have no idea what he was thinking.

  6. I've said it before and I'll keep saying it until it happens and I think we all know it's going to happen. We need an 8 team playoff...

     

    Disagree. Just need clear cut criteria and no subjectivity. If the committee has harped on Conference Championship being a heavily weighted criteria, they need to stick to that and not get off course.
