Add Elizabethtown to the open list.

Confirmed….Will be interesting to see how the Panthers move forward this late in the game.

To me that's a terrible look. And if I'm being honest I don't think it's a great hire for EHS.

Yes it’s the same coach. It’s a mess right now. In less than a month Etown has had their superintendent, girls basketball coach, principal and possibly head football coach resign…

Elizabethtown certainly didn't do itself any favors by staying in 3A. This is a gauntlet of a District and unfortunately Etown will likely be in a battle for 3rd place. The Panthers had one of their most experienced O Lines outside the 2020 group that went to a state championship and 4 out of the 5 starting linemen are all gone to graduation. The bad news... On offense Etown loses OG Jackson Ford (3 yr starter), Both tackles in Logan Rockwell and Zach Presthus (2 yr starters) along with Center Gavan Young (2 yr starter) who was also a 3 yr starter at Long Snapper. Also gone on the offensive side is QB Ryder Gregory (4 yr starter overall, 2 at QB), WR Evan Shelton (2 yr starter) and Jujuan Williams WR/Wing. Williams was a starter at NH before moving to Etown. Backup OL/C and DT Brock Catlett who stared at 2 tech before getting injured halfway through the season is also lost to graduation. Now the good news: Etown returns all of their backs. Trey Durbin who averaged 11.5 yds a carry, Tyrin Jurnett, (Just over 8 yds a carry) and Braydon Dean (just over 5 yds a carry). Along with Junior Connor Johnson who started to find a groove in limited carries towards the later part of the season. Offensively the Panthers also get back Senior QB Greyson Hainer. Hainer won the starting spot in the pre season but his season was cut short in the first game of the season with a foot injury. Hainer is mostly unproven at the varsity level and the last 2 years have been riddled with injuries. If he can stay healthy he has a tremendous upside. The lone returning starter on the OL is Jadyn Evans at OG. Defensively the Panthers lose quite a bit as well. Young, Ford, Presthus and Rockwell were all either defensive starters or rotated in frequently. Nate Nett (ILB) was the leading tackler for Etown is also gone to graduation along with Jujuan Williams (S), Drew Carmon (OLB) and Makyah Green (OLB) The Panthers return Camarious Caldwell(DE) who had 7 sacks, Carter Moberly(ILB) 2nd in tackles along with Dean, Jurnett and Jquan Williams in the secondary. Jquan was a starting corner before being injured around game 4. So all in all the Panthers have a lot of holes to fill. The skills are there to compete but they will have to find some linemen and bring them along quickly to compete. They hung with CAL through 1 qtr in the playoffs and then CAL took over. Even with the skills back, the holes in the OL make me think beating them this season will be impossible. And Lou Central is Lou Central. From what I have heard the schedule isn't going to provide any easy Ws. Along with CAL, Lou Central and Larue as district opponents they will also see 4A John Hardin, 6A Meade County, 3A Hart Co and 4A Bardstown with others to be added. The Panthers will need to get rolling quick and hope to grab a couple early road game wins to build some confidence going into the tougher part of the schedule.

I don't see a thread on here yet regarding Class of 2023 college commits so I thought I would start one. Would love to see where all these talented KY kids are going to play at the next level: Evan Shelton (WR-Elizabethtown) Morehead St. Gavan Young (C/DT/LS-Elizabethtown) Campbellsville as a LS Trey Prather (DT- St. X) Rhodes College Micah Carter (DE- St. X) Louisville Tommy Ziesmer (DE-Boyle Co.) Kentucky Brandon Hollis (DB-Larue Co.) Lindsey Wilson Camrin Willians (WR-Larue Co.) Kentucky Wesleyan

Etown, Nelson, PT, Taylor and Ashland all look to be moving up to 4A pending 3A request to move up. John, Etown and Nelson are on the bottom end of 4A size wise.

And apparently the feed is behind because it hasn’t even kicked off yet

I’m watching on the NFHS network and it looks like it’s being filmed with a potato. Anyone else experiencing this?

I think there are plenty talking about him. He’s a 3 star and has interest from college programs all over the country.

I think Bardstown has the horses to compete for part of this game. I continue to be impressed by TyTy. Without him Bardstown doesn't win the Mason Co. game. I think the problem for Bardstown will be 2 things...As I've been saying all year, CAL doesn't have linemen that go both ways. That is huge in HS football especially at the 3A level. Second, I'm concerned with what I saw out of Bardstown's secondary Friday night. They had a ton of PI calls. CALs passing game is pretty prolific and if Bardstown can't cover it could be a long night. I'll take CAL 45-20

I'm curious on John Hardin who has been 4A. Their total enrollment has been below 750 students for the past 3 years which is lower than Elizabethtown at 3A. I don't know what the cutoff is but I'd say JH will be moving to 3A. If so I would think that would move them to a district with Elizabethtown. I could see a district with Etown, John Hardin, Larue and Hart Co. maybe. Then the 3 Nelson Co schools, Bardstown, TN and Nelson in a district with maybe a Mercer Co.

I thought Bardstown might win this game but certainly didn’t anticipate this score. Bardstown has impressed me with what they’ve done especially with Greenwell out and the QB being out and only back a couple weeks ago. This may be Bardstowns year. They have the pieces to contend with CAL

Ashland has no chance in this game. And that’s not a knock on them. I’ve witnessed both teams and it’s not close. CAL gets a running clock in this one although it may be late 3rd or early 4th qtr

The complete lack of a passing game by CH is honestly astonishing. Been in 3rd and long all night. I think their only 1st down was on the fake punt

Thanks for all the updates. The stream on NFHS is wayyyyyy behind

Score?

TD CAL. 39-7 with 4:30 left in the 3rd

TD CAL. 32-7

26-7 CAL at the half. Etown didn’t help themselves with 2 mins left in the half down 20-7, Etown decides to throw on 1st & 2nd down which resulted in the clock stopping on incomplete passes. Then fumbled on 3rd leading to CALs last score. Had to play perfect to have a shot. Played well in the 1st qtr. Wheels fell off a little in the 2nd. Etown gets the ball to start the 2nd half. They need a solid scoring drive to keep things competitive

Cal punches it in. 13-7

Etown leads 7-6 after 1. Cal driving

Cal gets a huge return on the kickoff. To the Panther 38

Panthers put a nice drive together aided by a couple of penalties. 7-6 Etown
