Chris O’Brien from east Jessamine has been named head coach

They have nations best Freshman lineman. Something appears to be going on in good way for them

Paris and Frankfort. It’s an old rivalry. It’s a shame they don’t play every year. I’m calling out both coaches To sign 50 year contract.

Frankfort in a good spot. They return 4 of 5 on the offensive line. They are still young up front and need to continue to develop that group. They will have more depth up front this year just lac experience. Big question will be running back. The are replacing 4 year starter at running back. Replacing Jones is biggest question on the roster. Team is good enough play for regional title if everything falls in place.

If the principal said he can’t worry about athletics too then he should be let go as well. He is responsible all things at school level. Could Nick improved on discipline..yes. But the same can be said for all the coaches and administrators. Bottom line if they bring Brad Medford back after he has skipped out on them I can’t support them any more. Medford put screws to Norman when he was the boys coach. Then lied to kids when he took the Woodford job. So yes if administrators bring him back then the fix was in and it wasn’t about discipline.

Frankfort job is open. I hate it for Nick. I also hate it for the kids. What’s most disappointing in the entire process they didn’t have the guts to terminate him in person - it was a phone call..... SMH

I think the kid you are talking about is the exception and not the rule. School athletics should be about kids getting to experience what they want. Instead it’s about coaches and schools winning.

Another rule that punishes kids. Because adults didn’t like it.

My suggestion is to make it longer. July 1st through July 31st. Start Practice August 1st and first game start September 1st.

So if kid only sits on bench for 4 years he should suck it up. Not try give himself a chance somewhere else? Only high school sports handcuff kids. Coaches can leave for better situations and they everyone is ok with that, but if a kid wants to go to better situation they must suck it up and make the best out of it..... make sense.

I also have issue with KHSAA - Parents and kids have no away to challenge the KHSAA to change their rules. Because only way rules are able to be brought forward is through a member school. My question is why cant the public come before the board of controls and seek change? Why isn't there parent representation on the board of controls? Its hard for parents to beat a system that is designed to only protect adults.

So my question to you is high school sports about Kids? Adults can change jobs, non-sports playing kids can travel from school to school with no penalty. If you have a kid that switches schools all the time then I say its up to the coach of those schools to decide if they want those type of kids playing on their teams. I think what you are speaking of is an exception and not the norm. Lets think about Logan Woodside. He left Anderson County because he wanted to play QB. Anderson County was a place that wouldn't allow that to occur (by the way not a knock on Coach Peach) He decides to transfer and had a change of address. His parents are divorced and had the ability to transfer. It worked out for him. Why should other kids not be able to transfer to live out a dream? But don't have the ability to do it "By the rules" Frankfort had a kid that transfer into them, that wanted to play QB. The parents attempted to go through the other school and seek their approval to allow the kid to transfer. For some reason the school didn't allow it. The kid was denied and had to sit out 5 games to meet "The Rule" The other school didn't want him. He wanted to Play QB. His parents could have rented an apartment and "Beat the rule" because they had the means. They didn't and the kid was punished because of ADULTS didn't think about the kid. Had he stayed at the other school he never would have played QB. Guess what this kid isn't going to the NFL or College for football. He one day will be a Heart surgeon. But because High School rules only protect Schools and Coaches this kid missed what few games he had left in his high school career. When we will start thinking about kids?

Logan will look good in Orange.

This team appears to have been hit hard with graduation. What do they have returning?

Craig Foley 15 years at Frankfort.

Here is a better Idea Allow Footballl keep spring practice. Only give basketball 10 days in May Give kids off the month of June

Its all about recruiting in College. Meaning I have known a lot of good coaches that don't pan out because of the recruiting side of things.

Another bad hire. I think Petrino 2.0 time at UL is nearing the end off his run.

Congrats!

Been confirmed and have seen several tweets that Phillip Hawkins of Doss has been hired as the new head coach.

I know that this isn't answering your question. But as someone who supports kids the ability to transfer for any reason they want I would say YES. But it will never happen because KHSAA rules are only designed for what is best for schools and coaches.

Has the job been filled? I’m hearing a name but don’t want to say because they currently have a job. Wouldn’t be fair to the kids to say if not true

Bad idea. It punishes lower seed teams. If a lower seed team has already beaten two 2 seeds to get to the semi/final and is playing another team the same seed, how is it fair to make them play a higher seed. Part of the spirit of the playoffs survival and advance. KHSAA has bigger problems than the semi/finals of football. This could also create hug travel requirements
