Radio is behind live stats. Looks like Mayfield is trying to get to running clock.

Sounds like Hazard is the best team in Southeastern KY!

I'm surprised at the the slant of this vote towards Mayfield. Currently about 91/9. Also surprised that there are only 50 posts on this thread the day before the game.

Like Bartels and James stated "Thank You for Your Support". Colosimo might be faster straight running but I expect Davis to do much better scrambling and making some serious yards. Plenty of room in the Beechwood reserved seating section! ;-)

When I made that comment about the line play we were talking about the loss of Bob Burnett as as a coach. Coach Burnett has very specific drills he did that are no longer done with the team. Those drills were very good, especially for the undersized lineman. Regarding QB comment: I was talking about life after Taylor Davis. There is a huge age gap between Taylor and the 7th QB for the freshman team. Regarding Taylor, I think he will be a better at running than Colisomo (sp?) but I wouldn't expect him to be anywhere near the speed of Rigdon or Elliott. I'm surprised we didn't see more of Taylor on defense this year. Seems to be quite an athlete and could have rested some guys that were playing both ways (one of my beefs!). I thought he could be a decent defensive end (much stronger than current) or safety. You could say they didn't want to hurt the back up QB but there were plenty of QBs at Beeechwood that played defense (Jeff Wera).

How many times did they run the jet sweep or wildcat Friday night?

Hey, I mentioned dropped passes and you get on me! Whats up with that?

He must be missed.....somebody mentioned it here! How do you earn playing time on this team? Mistakes? You mean like jumping offsides multiple times? or, dropping more passes than you caught? or, receiving multiple unsportsmanlike calls because of your mouth? or, refusing to come of the field when your sub was sent in causing the coaches to use a time out? Just wondering because none of the players above lost their opportunity! We saw many of these same mistakes on Friday against Mayfield. I just don't like the way these teams are managed. I think they have gotten away from what Beechwood Football is all about!

This is interesting that you mention line play as well. I did not see your post as it took me a long time to write my post! QB is a big issue as well. The freshman team had a 7th grader at QB. He did a great job but 1)he won't be on varsity for a while and with his body I'm not sure he will be a QB.

I miss Bob Burnett as well! I know you meant Bernie Barre, but since Coach Burnett left I think the quality of our line play has diminished as well. I think you are correct here! But in my opinion this current group of coaches only focus on the Jimmy & Joe's when they are Jimmy Brown or Joe Theisman! If you are Jimmy Who or Joe Blow, you don't get developed or a chance to earn a spot. I think that is one of the reasons for the smaller teams. Kids are not sticking it out because they don't even get a chance to earn a spot or really even contribute. This current senior class probably had around 20 guys playing when they were freshman team and they finish with 9. Beeechwood always had talent but it was the lunch bucket guys that made the difference. That is one area where these coaches need to improve! ***************** Toothpick, If this is a dryspell with your team I don't want to think about what it will be like when things get better for yah! These past 2 years you have had some amazing talent that would definitely be fun to watch. Congrats on the win and good Luck in the championship game Cardinals!

Why is everyone else uninformed? Again, very nice Mayfield team. They had a great fan base as well! Who was the home team?

Very nice Mayfield Team. Congrats. I miss M.Y.!

So will Highlands be coming home through West Virgina or over Pine Mountain? Congrats to Highlands, good luck next week.

Last year is even more reason I would have thought it would be neutral to leaning Mayfield! I looked at the list of votes and I don't recognize most the Beechwood votes as NKY.

Yeah, but I still think most N KY fans are realistic. I understand the Beechwooders picking thier team but I really don't expect everyone else to do it.

I'm surprised at the poll. Currently at 61/39 in favor of Beechwood. If anything I would think nearly even or slight edge to Mayfield.

I don't think its the travel but more the overnight in a hotel sharing a room with other players.

Aren't there enough Highlands guys coaching already? :idunno:

Didn't coach Styer take this job on short notice when there were some problems a few years back? Maybe he stayed longer than he tought.

That was a joke!

Special effects by your local news station. Another Speiberg!

The Ft Mitchell Police have been instructed to ticket all cars with western KY county plates !!!!! :thumb: j/k If you park up near the PNC bank, you can walk on the driveway between the bank and Schultz Jewlers toward the houses. Then walk down the back of the stores to Beechwood. They have installed a gate that enters the Beechwood parking lot. You can also walk to the the far right of the store as there is a gate there as well. SG41017, I haven't been to the Saddle Club..........in the past 2 weeks! Jason, were you there that night?

Not really! The Highlands/Harlan thread has 191 posts which is still behind the Highlands/JC thread last week!

FYI: The swim club charged a fee during the Cov Cath game. Don't know if they have plans for that for this game though. I think the money went to the swim team. Does anyone know if you are allowed to park on the street from the school to the swim club on a Friday night?
