Rocket Man

Great announcing by Dixie You Tube. They never said the score of the game in 2nd half and called Highlands coaches bafoons. Stay classy Dixie. Just another bump in the road for the Birds. Great game Red Colonels

My apologies. Beechwood Beechwood Ryle

Beechwood Ryle Dixie

Bump in the road. We heard that last week when the Rockets rolled over the Birds and you all will be saying it next week when Dixie rolls over the Birds. Seriously congrats to the Ryle Raiders on a fundamentally sounded game.

Very disappointing to say the least. Talk all week was Birds are ready and win easy, coming from parents on here. Sick of it. Get better.

Birds are done. Coach Speier needs to go back to GA. Last 2 weeks has been pathetic. Bring up the Abner coach from freshman.

Birds are done. Coach Speier needs to go back to GA. Jus sayin

Thank you for the clarification. That is false information.

Generational win for the Rockets. Great game Rockets.

That is funny because the radio guy is a Campbell County alum and a Cake hater. True story. What is a generational win mean anyway?

D93 Bowling Green rock station on Facebook has the game. I’m out.

Then please explain to me why are they asking for a credit card? Change my mind.

Is it $24 or is it free?

$24.00

Do not use these websites. I was just informed that they are scams. FBI is looking into it. Jus sayin.

Disappointing and unfortunate for NCC. It’s early and they will get better.

I appreciate all the updates. You guys are great. SMDH. Go Birds

Updates? Bartenders can’t listen to games.

“Any place, any time, any body? Really? When was this said before tonight? Just curious because I have been around for a while and I do not remember Ronny ever saying this. Prove me wrong.

And, Back to the game. Anyone have stats?

Looks like BW headed to Beechwood according to Twitter. Anyone else know anything or am I late?

Has anyone seen the movie Frozen? Let it go Let it go Let it go This is turning into a circus. The kids see all the post and ask me about it. I say ignore it. That is alll.

????????? ???? ?????? ????? ???????? ??????’? ????? ????? ?? ???? ???? ???????? ????? The Fort Thomas Independent Schools announced today that Eddie James has been hired as the next varsity football coach at Highlands High School. James will oversee all aspects of the Bluebirds’ storied program after a four-year stint as head coach at Franklin County High School. This past season, James led the Flyers on a remarkable run that ended with a state runner-up finish in the 2020 Kentucky Class 4A playoffs. “The Highlands Bluebirds represent one of the true blue blood programs in the Common-wealth of Kentucky and a gold standard when it comes to excellence,” James said. “I would only leave Franklin County for a job of this magnitude, and I am very eager to work with the great student-athletes in Fort Thomas to restore a championship tradition on the foot-ball field.” After conducting a comprehensive search, Highlands High School principal Matt Bertasso said James’ clear and energetic vision for what Highlands football will embody, both on and off the field, separated him as the ideal candidate to walk the sidelines. “Eddie James sees the football program as an extension of his own family,” Bertasso said. “He is about championship-building, for sure. But he also uses football to teach life lessons that will help mold our students into fine people long after they leave the program. That’s very important to us.” James graduated from Franklin County High School in 2005 and held positions as an assis-tant coach at FCHS and at Boyle County before his promotion to head coach at Franklin County in 2017. James holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the University of Ken-tucky and teaches special education. James also received his Rank 1 in Special Education from University of the Cumberlands. “Highlands has a long and proud history of competing at the highest levels and Eddie brings with him the coaching acumen and experience needed to bring this kind of achieve-ment back to our football program,” athletic director Wes Caldwell said. “Hiring Eddie rep-resents a critical investment in our entire athletic department, and his energy will galvanize our community. We believe a lot of great Friday nights are in store for the Bluebirds.” James’ wife, Nikki, also teaches special education and the couple has two children, Ava (6) and Jax (3). The family plans to move from the Frankfort area to Northern Kentucky in the coming months. “Preparing for my interview at Highlands was like preparing for a big game,” James added. “Lots of adrenaline and excitement. And I want to communicate very clearly that everyone who wears an ‘H’ in our program will represent Highlands in a first-class manner on the field, in the classroom and in the community. That’s my expectation.” The Fort Thomas Independent Schools will host a small media gathering at the Highlands Fieldhouse, an indoor training facility for Highlands Athletics, to introduce Eddie James. Masks must be worn at all times and please bring recording equipment compatible with social distancing. Livestream of the press conference Monday, January 11, will be available on the District Facebook page and Film/Broadcast YouTube channel: http://broadcast.hhsbirds.com ? credit: Nick Moore, 44 Sports Photography

Congrats to Coach James. Looking forward to it. Go Birds.
