It’s gonna get interesting

I have it on pretty good authority that he’s applying for another open position 45 mins south of Louisville

I hate to say this but… I believe Justin Haddix may end up supplanting Chuck Smith as the greatest Boyle coach ever

He will definitely apply. I’ll go on record as saying I wouldn’t be a fan of this hire. If I’m being honest, he’s just not a good coach. He has had more D1 talent than any school in the area and more than most schools in the state and has failed for the most part to be successful. Terrible at Xs and Os and team discipline is a problem. He won’t have that kind of talent at Etown so you better be able to build and coach. Add that to the fact that his team had to forfeit wins and a district championship this season due to playing an ineligible player is more than enough for me to say NO.

I’m not a Bell fan but I don't think they “dodged” anyone. They played the teams on their schedule and then due to RPI faced the teams in front of them in the playoffs. Not like they created the RPI system or in someway created the playoff matchups.

Per the district's employment page the Football Head Coaching Job is now open. This is expected as the hiring of Alfredo Silva in June was on an Interim basis. I would expect a decent crop of applicants including Coach Silva. Etown is coming off a 4-8 season with a 1st round playoff win over a 3 win Garrard Co. Things won't be easy for whoever takes this job as the talent level at Etown drops way off for the next couple of years. They will be replacing most, if not all of their playmakers. QB Hainer, 5th yr Sr RB/WR/DE Trey Durbin, RB/DB Braydon Dean, TE/DE Alex Evans, RB/DB Tyrin Jurnett, OL/DL/LB Carter Moberly are all gone along with a few other linemen. That combined with the fact that they will only have 3 home games next season certainly isn't a formula for success. One bright spot is the return of Jquan Williams who is a dynamic playmaker but has had his Soph and JR seasons cut short due to injuries. Etown could be looking at a 1-9 or 0-10 season the next couple of years. Their middle school program is on the rise again and had a strong season winning their conference championship and only having 1 loss on the season. But as we all know it will take at least a couple of years for those kids to have an impact at the varsity level. It will interesting to see who all applies and ultimately who is the next HC of the Elizabethtown Panthers.

I promise you CAL doesn’t have the same number of kids playing both ways as most other 3A schools. Especially on the line where it truly matters. CALs 56 is much different than almost all other schools their size. Which is why they were able to beat 5A & 6A schools like Owensboro and Manual. Hart and Bell aren’t beating those teams this season. And that’s not a knock on either of those programs but a testament to how good CAL is.

This one could be a running clock in the 1st half. Thomas is a phenomenal back but he hasn’t faced a team like CAL. After seeing Bell in person tonight I believe that CAL Will be able to score on them at will.

I was at the game and we were all saying the exact same thing. No reason to go for two that early in the game. Especially knowing that Bell always goes for 2. If Hart had kicked that extra point they would have had an opportunity to tie the game at end with a 2 pt conversion. Hart was a little loose with the ball tonight. They put it on the ground 4-5 times and were fortunate to recover all of them except the last one which ended their drive in the Redzone. Fantastic season for Hart. Thomas for Bell Co lived up to the billing. This game for all intent was for 2nd place. Neither of these teams can compete with CAL in my opinion.

Looks like Hart Co is starting their tradition tomorrow!

One thing I’ve learned through the years is that mountain teams seem to think that no one else in KY plays as tough of football as they do. Mountains vs Everybody. Bell is good and Thomas is phenomenal. Hart is good and has a stable of backs. I simply said I liked Harts SOS better and gave them the edge. The numbers back me up. Here’s to a great game in Munfordville Friday night.

I Echo everything you said. Belfry isn’t the Belfry of old. If we look at RPI, Hart has wins over 3A #5 Union, #6 FS, #8 Glasgow (twice) and 1A #2 Campbellsville and 2A #5 Green County. In all honesty their SOS isn’t even comparable to Bell. With that being said I think it will be a great game with Hart having an edge at home.

I like Harts Strength of Schedule more than Bell. I think they’ve been battle tested and although they’ve had several close games they seem to find a way. I’ll take Hart 28-24.

Congrats to Hart Co! This was a fantastic back and forth game. Jarren Johnson for Union is the absolute real deal. Kid was phenomenal and was the entire offense for Union. Never went down on initial contact and kept Union in it until the very end.

Cmon man, you gotta let it go. Game is over. No need to keep rehashing it on new Hart Co. Post. Was the screen shot you send an illegal formation if they were still aligned like that when the ball snapped? Yes...Could we look at film and find illegal things on just about every play? Yes...If the officials missed it, that sucks and they shouldn't have but it's over at this point. You are acting like that is the only reason Hart won. It isn't.

As bad as this season was for the Panthers, it gets worse next yr. The Cupboard is very very bare

Boy was I wrong on this one. This was an embarrassing performance by the players and coaches of SW. just looked completely unprepared. Hats off to Owensboro. Definitely made a statement tonight!

This game will not be close. SW rolls. 39-14 SW

Year in and Year out there isn’t a team in the state that does less with more than North Hardin. D1 athletes all over the field but just poorly coached.

The redistricting probably hurt Meade Co. more than any team in the state. If they had been left in District 2 they would have won that district and been hosting Apollo tonight. Instead they get the prize of traveling to Trinity.

Terrible no call on that has been a great game. Hart just went up 21-7 with 1:15 left in the game. Should have been an obvious offensive PI on hart in the endzone but No Call. WR completely shoved the DB in the back to make the catch

I don't think this game is close at all. OC runs away with it. Yes, NH can score and Boykins is always a threat but OC's defense is good and they will give the O line of NH trouble. North's QB isn't great with pressure. OC 48-21. I think 7 of North's pts will come late in the game with OC's JV in.

That was a terrible PI call

Why would you go for it from ur own 38. Hart gave them that TD

Stevie Wonder could tell that was a fumble. Not even close!
