Oldbird, I know your reading-- how about a PM to let me know the BGP account is still valid?

Has anyone noticed the lack of responses of N Ky football fans.

Is this due to the lack of games on the radio or is this a commentary on the broadcasters?

Oldbird.

I have been reading the pre and post game threads involving Highlands, Newport, etc., and they miss the wit and knowledge of Oldbird. I feel fortunate to still see him on occasion, but would like to read his thoughts and analysis of the playoff. Birdsfan is doing a nice job of carrying the torch, but it would be nice to have OB back.

Oldbird, I know your reading--come back and join the fun.

HEHE good one. Besides Louisville, Lexington and :DDanville:D , are there any towns in Kentucky that have two or more :cool:PUBLIC:cool: schools still remaining?

Help me to understand this statement. I am under the impression that Danville is an independent city school district, like HHS and Newport. Does this mean that Boyle County High School is located in the city of Danville but not within the independent district boundaries?

Some HHS fans like myself would like to play Bell Co. and how 'bout we schedule it for next Thursday night.

If the HHS fans were offended by the actions of the FC student section last week, get ready for round two this week. I was never so disappointed in a student cheering section as I was at Lex Cath's group at the state soccer finals. They were rude and vulgar. The "cheers" were nothing more than a collection of curse words.

I kept looking for someone, a parent or administrator, to come and settle the group down, it never happened. If you have kids I would suggest to get there early and sit toward the Middl School side of the stadium.

CAmpbell County has three--

Highlands

Newport and

Newport Central Catholic

and are geographically about a total of 4 miles apart.

Highlands didn't pour it on. They just played a team that couldn't compete. [b]AAA playoffs never are competitive till the quarterfinals....

Tell the Covcath faithful this and I think you may get an arguement.

I'm guessing you were not at the game. I was impressed with siome of the things Franklin was able to do. The problem was the way Franklin calls plays at the line and has ahurry-up offense allows for too many possessions for the opponent. HHS is too good not to score a lot of points if the game clock never runs. When Franklin was unable to put points the board, the margin just grew and grew.

I would be surprised if

AAAA Boone Co

AAA Hopkinsnville

AA Newport or

A Metcalfe Co

advanced to the semi finals.,

HHS must get a pass rush. When Franklin Co was able to protect the passer, big plays occurred. Constant pressure and some sacks are very important to holding the Lexcath point total under 40.

It was 2002 and we (Male) were playing Highlands in a bowl game at Beechwood, when highlands was punting to Sergio Spencer. He came down the male sideline and all you see is a helmet fly in the air as Dale Baughman blind sided one of the highland players. Our whole sideline erupts not even worrying about the return we were juss celebrating the hit. The kid was completely knocked out ( and i have respect for him to get up that is were the respect lies). Highlands coaches rushed to our sideline saying it was a dirty hit but i have seen it many many times since and it was the hardest high school hit i have ever seen. Lets put it this way the Courier-Journal in louisville had it in their paper the next day were coach red said it was a NFL hit in high school, and better than most NFL hits.

I agree this was the hardest hit I have ever seen at at High School game. I also agree it was a legal hit. As you said the sidelines erupted, the problem was a young man lay motionless on the ground. I believe that is what upset most HHS fans and coaches.

I think the biggest decisions in this situation are still to be made. The "procedural" overturning of the injunction just opens this up to a hearing for a temporary injunctions later in the week.

Possibility #1 - no further court action, HHS forfeits all previous games, plays without Mitchell in the finals and has a chance at being state champion.

Possibility #2 - go to circuit court again later this week, win the injunction, play game without Mitchell and then there is no chance that a state championship could be later stripped from HHS. If COA overturns the injunction record would be 1-14 but HHS still state champions. If no overturn record (14-1) would remain intact and result of state game would still stand.

Possibility #3 - go to court and get injunction. Mitchell plays in game. If HHS wins and COA overturns the injunction-HHS forfeits state win.

Any other possibilities.

I am not 100% sure on this part but I think the COA's ruling may just be procedural in nature and have nothing to do with the "facts" of the case. In other words, the Campbell Judge gave the temporary order but he never had a full hearing to either grant or deny a permanent order and I think this ruling by the COA forces either a full hearing (due process) in this case or it says the decision by the BOC stands. My point is, I don't think the COA is taking a side on the facts of the case yet, they are just setting the foundation to do so at a later date if need be.

I am by no means a lawyer, but a procedural ruling to me would throw this thing right back into local circuit court. I would be very surprised if there is not another hearing later this week for a permanent or another temporary injunction. It would probably be granted again and Mitchell would then be allowed to play.

Now the decision would need to be made by the staff to play Mitchell or not. If HHS would win with Mitchell and later again lose in the COA, the Birds would be stripped of the title. Any of this sound reasonable

Isn't Conner still in Hebron Ky ( n Ky ) or did they move south down 71.
