Serious question: How good are these 7-footers supposed to be? In addition to height, what else do they bring? I hope they are all great.

What about the young man I'm hearing so much about in the Tilghman-CovCath thread - Martels Carter? Do you feel like he may be deserving of Mr. Football? I really don't know much about him, but he must be something else.

Very nice write-up, Rock. I agree with you on Sansbury being the MVP. I read where he put on 16 pounds over the off-season and is now 196 pounds. He is a hard, tough runner. The QB has improved a lot over the course of the season. I've always thought that McEnenany doesn't get the acclaim he deserves. I believe he is a 3-year starter. In the first game with FD, I was impressed with their defense and the way they swarmed to the ball. They have great players all over the field. The days of weak Lexington 6A football are behind us, as evidenced by Trinity's 1-2 record in their most recent games against Bryan Station and FD, and BS and FD being in the final 4. I expect a 48-minute game played at a high level, with line play and turnovers probably being the deciding factors.

I quickly read the first part of this post and I thought he was talking about the final score.

All credit to KCD forthe improvement they have made over the past 5 years or so, but right now I believe Raceland is too battle-tested, both in the regular season and play-offs, and they come out with the win.

Seems that the natural turf field didn't bother Owensboro at all.

Yeah, they were great. With some of their phrasing, they brought back memories of the old Leonard's Losers radio show.

They can say but it probably wouldn't be true.

I was impressed with FD's defense when they beat Trinity 3 months ago. Can FD keep WR Max Gainey under wraps? He is a big-play machine. FD may have the speed to do it. I think that will be a big factor in this game.

Will tickets be sold at the gate?

Thanks.

Some OC fans have told me that the Aces are actually playing a class higher since their enrollment would put them in 1A. The reason has to with the difficulty of scheduling 1A teams in their area. True or not?

No big stars on this Trinity team, just a lot of good, tough football players.

Some very good academic schools on that list. Impressive. I noticed he had Wake Forest listed. What was the name of another Male grad who went there and became their all-time leading rusher (at that time at least)? Later, I believe he was a coach on Jeff Brohm's staff at WKU and/or Purdue.

Sorry. This should be in the baseball section.

The Shamrocks win at home.

OK. Then who would be in line for the DeSales job?

That is a nice stadium. Whose is it?

I like all of the above except those that may contain coconut. I also like an occasional Zero bar and a Payday bar. ( Do they still make Zero bars?)

The Cards play Michigan on Friday.

Rondale Moore of Trinity/Purdue was drafted 49th by the Arizona Cardinals.

I agree. Variety is the spice of life.

Why don't they hire Gil Thorp and be done with it?

Perhaps Atherton's most acclaimed players were All-American Charlie Tyra (1950's) and Rick Wilson (1980's....I believe), both of whom played at UL. So, it's been a while, yes. Charlie's son is the AD at UL.

JCPS is putting a lot of money in refurbishing the physical plant at Shawnee. It would be great if Shawnee turned into a showpiece in a few years. Maybe it will be one of those "If you build it they will come" type of things and attract good students including athletes.
