Open Job: Boyle County
I personally believe that if it isn’t Brandon then Travis is the logical choice. Boyle county has a system that few can repeat and will take someone who knows the way to keep it going. I think that Travis has coached under chuck for two years now and seen how he runs the program. Travis first stint as head coach was going based on what he knew as a player of Chuck so I believe this time you would see a different approach. I just think that the program needs a coach that will continue to lead and run it the way it has been under Chuck. Change happens and sometimes it’s for the better but I like the if it ain’t broke don’t fix it way better.

Open Job: Boyle County
I will attempt to tackle this one, but I am not the original poster, so simply my opinion on the matter. 1. Do not have to compete with several schools that have winning traditions for players from that area. (Bowling green, other warren co school) Also, not only compete for those players but play against them in a district game. 2. The SW tradition is new, not saying there is anything wrong with it, but Boyle winning ways have deeper roots. 3. Boyle is in an upgrade status when it comes to the facilities over the next couple of years, allowing the next coach some say in what gets done. 4. The fan base rivals that of any school (almost every state title game played in set records for attendance for that class it maybe every year but I don't know 2019 numbers) 5. Brandon specific it's home, and according to Dabo Swinny, when momma calls you to come home, then you go home. With all that said, I have to be honest I don't know much about SW, so I cant genuinely say that any of this is better SW for sure.

Bluegrasspreps Mr. Football Watchlist (11/26)
While I agree with everything, you say here, and I think there needs to be an award for being the state's best lineman. However, as an offensive line coach, I have to say that most of if not all of those guys don't do what they do for awards. That doesn't change the fact that they need to be recognized I just wanted to point out how selfless that position is. It is because of this selflessness that you see teams with good OL/DL play making it to December.

Boyle County 30 Highlands 0
I hope you didn't take my comment as saying that you or anyone else is the bad guy because I can see how it is not traditional playing both ways. They do get breaks, and they do rotate a lot, but several times in a game you will see the guys listed on both sides of the ball. An example is when Mcdaniel is running the ball, and we transition to defense, you will see him out there with Sacco. At this point, Sacco went one way, and McDaniel went both ways. I get what you are saying 10-15 years ago players never left the field they were in for every snap, and I don't think we have any that currently do that.

Boyle County 30 Highlands 0
This is incorrect and simply not factual about the number of players that go both ways. Wilson Kelly did play several snaps last night on the offensive line. Roller, Hardwick, Smith, Colwick, Kelly, Mcdaniel, Sacco, Logan, Cole Lanter all of these plays at one point or another will go back to back series on both offense and defense. I think going back to back on offense and defense would signify going both ways and while it doesn't happen every series it happens a lot.

5A #4 Highlands at 4A #1 Boyle County Predictions/Updates
Thursday of last week Calpreps had the Boyle CAL score was 28-27 in favor of CAL maybe this one is a little more accurate.

4A #1 Boyle County vs 3A #1 Christian Academy of Louisville Predictions/Updates
CAL is a great football team and in my opinion to think this will be anything other than a close game is wrong. I think that both teams have traits that hurt the other and that leads me to believe that this will be a defensive battle. I think we see a very tight contest with the winner being the team that can run the ball successfully and keep penalties to a minimum. I like Boyle in this one due to experience in coaching and players 24-21 final. If there is a place to be this Friday it is in Boyle county for sure as it looks to be an amazing game.

4A #1 Boyle County at 2A Danville Predictions/Updates
This game has the potential to be a blow out in Boyles favor but most believed that would be the case last year as well. If memory serves that game was tight for a long time with Boyle pulling away in the end. In 2017 Boyle with great senior leadership and stellar sophomores were beat by a very good Danville team. I bring all of this up to say that while it has that potential to be a blow out and having been around for a few of these rivalry games I don't ever count on potential alone. I am going to go with a similar game as last year it will be a boxing match for the first half with both teams landing blows as they feel each other out. Boyle pulls away in the second half having the superior firepower. Boyle 35 Danville 14 with 21-14 halftime score. As a loyal rebel fan I will be overjoyed if it were a running clock in BOCO's favor!

Pass Interference: Yes or No?
I agree it is left open to interpretation by the official, but the rule is black and white as far as the definition you can't hit/touch each other. How much is the interpretation part but again the point I am making is that there is enough there to have called the penalty, so the answer to the original post is by rule it was PI based on the official determination of how much contact is to much. I will say this as I was standing right behind the official no one on the Boyle sideline said a word about the penalty I am not sure if they even knew it had been called. If you watch the video, you can see that the official throws the penalty flag a split second after the contact is made, so no one influenced the call. I think we are saying mostly the same thing but in a roundabout different way. I will also add not to argue with anyone I am a Boyle fan, but I only commented on the rules as I don't care what the call was, either way, I am a student of the game and want to understand the rules as much as I can. I say that to say this standing there; I had a pretty good view and the reason the ball deflects the way it does it because the defender hit the receiver into the ball. Again not arguing what is right or wrong merely the rule itself and giving the perspective I had during what might be the best football experience of my lifetime.

Pass Interference: Yes or No?
Copy of the definition from the handbook and the expanded neutral zone contact where is says linemen Basically what it boils down to is that there can be contact inside the expanded neutral zone but not while the ball is in the air if it travels beyond the neutral zone there for by rule if he got there before the ball the ref had every right to justify calling PI. Either way it was a judgment call by him but based on the rules there is enough there to have called it
-
Pass Interference: Yes or No?
I understand what you are saying the point I am making is the word expanded neutral zone is only used in that particular instance which to me means expanded neutral zone does not apply to a pass beyond the neutral zone or it would have said that. Example why would they use it in the context of linemen but not in the general definition? They wouldn’t meaning when they say neutral zone that’s what they mean and not expanded. I said TE simply because it was referring to defensive lineman not because it only applied to TE. I will copy the rule and show it here as it is clear the definition of PI is any contact offense or defense after the ball travels past the neutral zone (not the expanded) the only time expanded is used is when pertaining to defensive linemen as defined in this same rule set. It’s black and white not opinion or what an official said it’s plan as day in the rule book.
-
Pass Interference: Yes or No?
So the rules issue got me to thinking so I bought a copy of the 2018 rulebook from NFHS and I think there is an article in it for pass interference that clears some of this up but maybe not all. In 7-5 article 10 is says that pass interference is not in play when player A (offense) touches player b LINEMAN (defensive lineman) unless it is beyond the expanded neutral zone. This would lead one to believe that it would be referring to a TE and defensive lineman as they will be in that area as it says explicitly, LINEMAN. After reading this rule several times today that is the only time in any definition where the term expanded neutral zone is used. The term used in this article when about the definition of pass interference is when the ball is thrown beyond the neutral zone, not the expanded neutral zone. So I ask this question why use the term expanded when talking about lineman and not in the definition. The answer is simple there is no illegal contact allowed when the ball is thrown beyond the neutral zone and not the expanded neutral zone. If anyone would like I can try to copy the rule on here but I am not sure I am allowed with the book costing money.

Can someone convince me that CAL isn't the best team in the state?
CAL is without a doubt a great team, but unfortunately, there is no way of knowing the answer. The only thing that we have at our disposal right now is stats and scores and if we are going by that then at least CAL and South Warren have a common opponent. South beat Central Hardin 59-0 Cal beat them 49-21. So if all we have is stats and scores, it would stand to reason based on that score that South Warren is better. That's why questions like this one are hard to answer and until there are only six left standing there isn't much point. Fun discussion but no way to change someone's opinion. I don't have the time or inclination to go through stats CAL may have the advantage in that area which again goes back to what is the basis for the discussion because it can't be the eye test because some see through the CAL colored glasses while other will look through their team's colored glasses. There would have to be parameters to 100% determine this if we are going by the on-the paper route since none of the remaining teams play outside of class.

3A #1 Boyle County at 3A #10 Western Hills
I think that in my opinion, you have to add #26 Cameron Yates to that list as well. He has been a security blanket of late due to his sure hands and has since the Danville game had eight catches for 91 yards. That may not seem like on fire stats, but in the passing game for BC it is about average for all their receivers other than Reese. Cameron was the leading team receiver for one of those games also, so there are many guys stepping into roles and playing with their everything to help this team.

3A #1 Boyle County at 4A Wayne County
It doesn't matter who is running the ball right now until the Oline improves (which they are) it wont matter who is carrying the ball. The holes aren't there right now and when they are they close extremely fast. The only thing having crawford right now would do is allow for people to have more breaks. You cannot fix a blocking problem by inserting a new running back that is like having a baby to fix your marriage your not fixing the issue. They have had success on short throws and roll outs because it takes the pressure off Lanter allowing him to be successful. When you look at all these facts (D1 player at rb not excelling, rushing yards down from last year, roll outs and short throws) its easy to see that BC currently has a line issue not a RB issue.

BluegrassPreps Class 3A Football Rankings (9/3) Discussion
Boyle has played in three games one was a blow out and they beat danville by a comparable score of the Corbin danville game. I don’t see any logic in your post at all because you say that last year doesn’t matter and neither does paper scores which until Corbin plays boyle or central plays them or however you want to slice it the reigning champ is champ til they lose.
-
2A #4 Danville at 3A #1 Boyle County
I agree initially it does affect the game but what worries me how young (game experience) BC oline is and that the rivalry could affect it more because of that fact. I haven't seen central this year but have looked at their schedule dont know much about them so I will have to refer to your judgment on them until they play in a couple weeks.
-
2A #4 Danville at 3A #1 Boyle County
So being a rivalry doesn't play any part in the outcome? Boyle cant struggle because of the rivalry and still be top dog in 3A? I am asking seriously not saying you are wrong in your prediction so dont take it that way. I also want to ask do we think that central is better than Ballard? Because right now Ballard is the best team on BC schedule and I am not sure the outcome of ballard or danville matters much in the grand scheme of 3A
