I saw them a little bit on You Tube and they looked well coached. It looks like they have decent size but I can't really tell about their team speed and to me that will be the difference if they are a contender or a pretender.
As an outsider looking in at PT I believe Wyatt is the man for the job. I like that he is a disciplinarian , young men need that. Perry was a good coach also and he could have done the same as Wyatt did last year.
I believe Perry was out coached by Smith in 03. PT probably had way more talent than Boyle. Casey was a 1st team USA Today player while Cantwell ended up in the NFL.
Whatabout the 03 squad that Thomas had that featured Cantwell and Casey? I thought that team was loaded and should have won the title but got beat at home by Boyle Co.
Does Beechwood , HC , Hazard ,LCA have a win against a top flight team? The victory against PT, who was bigger and had more team speed than us, showed me this team will be a very very tough out come playoff time. Mayfield also handled a very good Milan TN team in a scrimmage.
I wouldn't discribe the Scribe as a Mayfield fan or even Quickslick. Both are gushing about Mayfield and while I agree that Mayfield may have the best team in 1A , I don't think its necessarily a slam dunk that we will win the 1A title.
I don't know if Mayfield is getting "lauded"? Mayfield didnt run the score up, I just dont think it could be helped. We know it was not a big accomplishment.
Quickslick, I guess you don't know where you are? This is Beechwood country and you have said fightin words to these people ,talkin about how if we had been in 1A , Beechwood wouldn't have won all those titles.
Fulton County was a joke. Dont read too much into that score. I will say this, if Mayfield doesnt win the state title most Mayfield fans will say this team under achieved. Winning 75-6 might get our LIT ratings up. I saw where Beechwood was rated #1 last week in 1A
Mr Guru, I think you know the answer to that question. Anything can happen. A wet, muddy, cold field, it evens the field. Mayfield needs and will take things one game at a time. I dont think Mayfield underestimates Beechwood or LCA , Holy Cross, Hazard and Critt. CO. Is Mayfield the favorite? Probably.
