I coach the 10 yr old all stars but I could get in contact with the 12 yr old coach if someone could forward on the information on the wildcats. Of if anyone knows of any 10 yr old tournaments around?

Well there is a Cal Ripken League in Lexington that consists of 3 different divisional areas. North, South, and Southeast. Each are has about 10 teams which consist of players ages 9-12 and evenly balanced. After the season each respective age group forms an all star team from the teams in their area. So the best 12 year olds in Southeast Lexington are 1 team, and the same goes for South Lexington as well as North Lexington. Then who ever wins the districts out of these 3 teams (pool play) moves onto state then regionals, then the world series in the Pittsburgh area. If you know anyone on that Wildcats team that would be interested, I know the contacts from the Southeast team and maybe we could work something out. Maybe some type of tournament in the northern kentucky area or down in Lexington.

Just a matter of time before you jumped in and put this chaos to rest haha

Haha I have been reading this site for many years but finally just started my own name to read under.

Your losing a lot of credibility as a poster and your posts are slowly getting to the level of absurdity.

WOW so 5 D1 players? Really?

Send them down to Lexington to play the 12 year old All-Stars of the Cal Ripken League. That'd be fun to watch!

Great point! This could propel many other players recruitment that would have otherwise not received any attention for college coaches.

Classic :laugh:

What are we taking away from him? And all over Towles? I dont see thread all over Bluegrasspreps titled anything with Towles. We have merely stated the facts, Towles had an outstanding sophomore year and we are looking for him to lead us to another state championship. Nothing more nothing less.

They are building this kid up like the second coming of Christ. I honestly feel a little bad for him, especially if he doesnt live up to these standards being set.

Thats not going to be much of an issue in my opinion.

Yes it is.

Thats true! 20n10+12! I think someone should make a t shirt with this slogan on the front and on the back say = The Highlands Bluebirds!

Im going to go out on a limb here and assume flotsam was talking about playing the quarterback position. Yes he would be welcomed with open arms, to play tight end or as a defensive end. Highlands is set at the quarterback position.

Wow

Actually not the case because Im a Highlands graduate and follow them religiously. How they play a big time program isnt as important as getting to play them in itself. I just want Highlands to beat one of these powerhouses so all the haters will finally shut their mouths.

Dont know where you heard that but thats not true. And if the school couldnt afford it then I am positive fundraisers would be placed in order for the trip to happen. Maybe meet a team from Florida and play in Tennessee somewhere or Georgia, they could bus there. And that is the one thing you pulled out of my entire post? I mean really?

I just received an update that Highlands has scored on 11 out of their first 13 possesions with 0 INT's. I did not receive any more specifics other then that.

I have a feeling someone will post updates though. Dont let me down Bluebird Faithful!

I think a national ranking last year was acceptable and I can confindently say Highlands was a top 30-35 team in the USA last year. #3 was very high and they definitely were not the #3 best team in the country last year. Dale wants to be the best team in the country, which is a great goal but in order for that to be accomplished, Highlands has to schedule a Texas/Florida/California Powerhouse year in and year out. As well as play at least St. X/Trinity every year. Now Dale may be attempting to do this, I dont know. With this will come the goals Dale is striving for. Until then the only viable argument that can be made is that Highlands is the best team in the state, and really cannot be mentioned as a top 15 team in the country until they go play top 15 teams. I know we played St. X last year which was ranked very high nationaly, but I am talking about, as I stated earlier, a juggernaut from Texas/Florida/California. Highlands can afford to fly a team down to play on a Saturday 1 time a year, and we all know people would follow. And have a big powerhouse come into our house 1 time a year. Do this and play St. X or Trinity 1 time a year and we will compete for that #1 spot in the USA year in and year out!

What does Highlands have to prove? Im just curious...

:thumb: If you go let me know some specifics because I have work. :irked:

Yes they are. If I'm not mistaken they play Moeller today and SK tommorow with Holmes next week.

I think Highlands will air it out like the Lorenzen Smith days. They should do something like UK and have a slogan, Operation: Aerial Assault! :ylsuper: Its going to be fun to watch! And Highlands has a trio of great running backs that will compliment the passing game very well in Compton, True, and Streeter.
