BCHS-BLUEBIRD

Family member went said Ryle didn't look very good. NCC scored around 80 to Ryle's 50's?

Great athlete. Has been injured and had a few surgeries. Not sure if he'll play. Hated to see him not out on the football field.

Sam Vinson is 6'3 now and will be as advertised. Luke Muller will be the best deep ball shooter in the 9th region and it won't be close IMO. He's 6'5 and in range when he crosses half court. You also have 3 stronger (senior) football kids in Jacob Braas, Hunter Ahlfeld, and Jack Delagrange that will help make a splash once they get up to speed. Ollie(Sophmore) is a scrapy younger player that will do well. Taller kid and he seems to find the ball. Brycen Cody (Junior) will battle down low. Plays taller than he is.

It sounds like they will be loaded this year. He could probably do a team with KY kids one with the IN kids he gets and one with the OH kids that come over too? I'd say that depth is going to be crazy this year. It will be hard to navigate those playing time waters and keep the team on the right track but he's the coach to do it.

I 100% agree. This weather IMO is the worse case scenario for Conner. The sloppy track definitely favors the Birds.

I meant to circle the wagon on that one and come back to this thread. The Birds will have a tough game for sure on the road but I think the possibility of rain actually helps the Birds not hurts them. HHS will have a fairly large edge in the defense category and about 50/50 in the offensive category IMO. I know Cooper's D has been good this year but the Birds D is on a different level. On O, Cooper seems to be not sure who will play QB/RB at times and the loss of 2 starting WR's(quiting) doesn't help. Everyone knows if you can stop Lee you stop them from scoring in bunches. Meanwhile the Birds have there own set of issues on O. They can't seem to find the right combination of blocking up front still, which is causing a domino effect on every other position IMO. It's hurting the run, the time for Colin to pass(and not throw INT's) and the WR's getting open. This isn't all on the line either, the coaches have to do a better job of making adjustments and opening the playbook. You are at the end of your regular season, it's time to get a few pages deeper in the ole playbook.

:laugh: Don't think we have to worry about that. This will be a blowout for CCH IMO. If Conner can't pass and its muddy, I'm thinking 28/35-0 CCH. Conner REALLY needs Hicks to move around and make plays passing it. If that goes away they have almost a 0% of winning.

First series not first play. It was 3rd down. (For the only TD)

How is HHS’s OC still calling plays? I’ve never seen anything like this. Absolute INSANITY. Waited until the 3rd qtr to put Huddleston in. SMH. The defense is playing great again. Looks like Boyle Cty on repeat.

Senior night for the Birds. I know they are going to leave it all out on the field win-lose-draw. They are ready for a battle as I'm sure CCH is. Ding that bell boys, It's go time! Go Birds!

That’s not what I was told. I was told Weinreich said the offense could have any player they wanted on defense if they thought it would help. They said they didn’t want to mess up the chemistry on the defense. I sure hope that’s changed as of these last two weeks.

No, I believe he was over the slot WR during nickel coverages. Would’ve like to have seen him play more on the outside on all of those passes that were just thrown up since that’s what he plays on O. Poor #25 at some point the coaches have to step in to give him some help. That was really hard to watch. Everyone wants to see some of these kids go both ways because of the things they can do. You can’t tell me that with Huddleston‘s motor he can’t help on a lead block or give the QB some time to make a pass occasionally? Not to mention what he could do at WR. It really baffles me. You have an NFL caliber kid playing both ways at CCH and no one blinks an eye at doing it because they are playing to win. You want to tell me about history and our guys don’t do that? News flash you are the one becoming the history. CCH has beat the Birds for years now. Time to wake up and make changes NOW and get this season turned around while you can. Zero excuses! You play to win. I don’t care if 4-5 guys have play every single snap. You play to win...period.

Million dollar question.

Performance.

To put it as nicely as I can... please give #25 some help. They have been picking on him all game.

Someone please tell me who is responsible for the offensive calls and the lack of protection? Why do they not have another blocker in a Time RB or rolling the coverages. Are our lineman that bad?

I thought it was the 8th grade QB that was the good one? Is the freshman QB good?

Centers is the ONLY name that could be on that list from Cooper. Is that the Rabe kid from Ryle last year? I'm you with you ParkHills911...Cmon man! :ohbrother:

I love big high school games and this one should be a great one. Good luck to both teams!

Last Friday was a lot of should'a, could'a, would'a being down 13-0 in the 4th with throwing 2 INT's in our own endzone to a great Boyle Cty team but at the end of the day the Birds took it on the chin 30-0. No excuses. Birds will look to make a statement this Friday.

Word on the street is there is a STUD 8th grade QB at Ryle right now that could probably start varsity today but he's going to Cov Cath next year...UNFORTUNATELY! Unless the mafia can find a way to sway him to stay.

Will it sell out? Any good restaurants to hit while we are in town? Trying to talk the wife into taking the day off to hit the bourbon trail on the way down!

I agree. They should be able to significantly slow down a one dimensional team, or state titles will be hard to come by. I just hope they are not over looking Ryle this week with Boyle Cty coming up.

Nope, He may rush for 200+ and 3 TD's(Hope not). Problem is I'm not sure that's going to be enough for them to get the W.

I think this will be a good game but I believe HHS pulls away as they have better athletes. Also, the fact that its a home game makes a BIG difference IMO. It's hard to come in and get a win against the Bluebirds. It's a different kinda place to play at.
