Has Holmes ever been good at football. Seems like a few years ago they were really good at basketball.

Wow! That’s amazing I doubt anyone would have the information on this but would be curious if that’s the most ever.

They won’t win titles in 6A like they did in 5A they may never win any in 6A I never said they couldn’t compete I just said they wouldn’t be the power they was in 5A I mean since 6A started there’s been what 2 teams not named Trinity St X or Male win state and Trinity had some of their worst teams by Trinity standards in those two years. So to sum it up will they be good, sure can they win state yeah but not on the level they did in 5A.

I see a lot of posts on here about teams needing to play this team or that team but you have to remember these teams have to be willing to play you back. I’m fine with the schedule it didn’t seem to prevent them from getting to the finals last year.

I think it’s a pretty tough schedule the only two cupcakes they play are district games Cooper, Central, Atherton and Bullitt East have all had good seasons lately I agree games I would expect them to win but they are quality teams you can’t schedule Trinity 10 times. But that’s always been Manual’s problem they usually have to play Trinity or St. Xavier early in the playoffs and that’s pretty tough.

I have to admit they could play a tougher schedule but it’s not like they were playing a bunch of 2A squads. Bryan Station and Bowling Green are traditionally pretty good Pulaski went to the finals and Manual is good every year so I’m not exactly sure what you could do unless you scheduled Trinity 5 games and St X 5 games. That being said while I do expect SW to compete in 6A I think it would be hard to win state and certainly not at the rate they competed in 5A they had a good chance there every year. I’m not saying they can’t win it in 6A but I feel like it will be very difficult.

Looks like a long season for these guys to me. More players don’t equal better players.

I’ve lived in Barren Co all my life and I’ve never seen them called the Purple Colonels.

Oh yeah who has he scheduled.

Seems like this schedule sets up well for Elizabethtown to have a pretty good season. I mean OC will certainly be a loss and probably Bardstown but everyone else they should win or at least have a good shot to win.

To my knowledge Glasgow has never played them but basically it seems like we swapped Edmonson or Butler for an equally weak team on the schedule but with Larue also leaving at least we will have room to add one more competitive non district game.

Can they close the gap on PT, time will tell they played them better last year but I still don’t know if they have enough to overtake them.

The Scotties will go as far as their line takes them they have plenty of skill position talent they just need those guys up front to block for them. I do think their line will be better last year they only had about 6 guys to rotate they have several freshmen and sophomores from last year that are a year older and stronger hopefully that can be a strength this year.

KSR is saying he has committed to Kentucky. Congratulations to him and the most important thing is stay healthy.

I don’t think they necessarily need to schedule Trinity but schedule Boyle, Highlands, Cov Catholic, South Warren teams like that I think those games would be interesting.

How many players do you have to have to field a team. I mean a Class A school you would think you could get by with 20 it just doesn’t seem like it would be that hard to find 20 kids that want to play football. I know there are athletes in that school you just have to get them to come out.

Bowling Green could’ve scheduled a tough schedule last year and went 8-2. Now was it their past success or just inability to get a lot of teams to play them they were forced to schedule a brutal group. And a combination of their talent being down a little and having one of the toughest schedules in the state led to a very poor season by BG’s standards.

I didn’t say anyone else should go I just said that would be some pretty long road trips for district foes.

That would be interesting to my knowledge Glasgow and Elizabethtown have never been in the same district.

Dang that would suck for Butler that would be three very long road trips. I actually think Butler will remain in the district with Glasgow and Hart and Edmonson will drop to 2A.

You are correct sir no way Barren would’ve been in a district with BG unless they have no choice.

I didn’t say it would be a bad game just not one you would expect Glasgow to play they have never played neither team.

That would be a peculiar game for Glasgow, we have no history with either but with Arnett being at Boyle he may have a relationship with some of those guys. That are both bigger schools and while I don’t think they’ve had a great tradition they were both good last year.

Another thing no one is considering is why would the Bowling Green’s of the world want to play Glasgow a 3A club they might lose to it might be hard to schedule these games that everyone is pushing to schedule.

He won’t drop them. If you would’ve noticed I didn’t say I was for keeping the rivalry games I said they will because they have always played them. I could really care either way I mean really if I was those teams I wouldn’t want to play Glasgow, Barren dropped them from the schedule when they weren’t competitive maybe Monroe and Allen might consider it themselves but they won’t year after next they will still be playing all three.
