YOWZA!!! Any stats?

Dixie matched up better with T than Boone did but I don't think makes them better.

Shelby County that year compares to a team like Meade or Henderson much more than Trinity.

Congrats... as was I... that doesn't change the fact that they weren't clear cut favorites to get out of the first two rounds. They weren't even #1 seed in the district.

Could the lack of caring, so to speak, have anything to do with their coaching style?

You have to do what gives you the best chance to win. Honestly... if Ryle game out in the shotgun or something like that the game would have been much worse. Ball and clock control is how these teams got there, can't fault them for doing what they do best, even if it's not good enough.

I am no Ryle history buff but from my understanding Hockman was an underachiever.

:thumb: Heading into the playoffs Ryle wasn't a clear favorite to make it out of NKY.

I agree. Shelby County was it?

To be fair... doing this is what made Ryle 'hot'. They were playing great ball with this scheme.

I want to know how he was supposed to get back in it...

1. 2002 Boone 2. 2002 Dixie 3. 2004 Boone 4. 2006 Ryle 5. 2004 Dixie

Yes but '06 Ryle lost to '06 Boone....? Anything goes in those rivalry games.

:confused:

Well I apologize if the timing is off... I think this thread could have some solid discussion.

Fair enough. Boone beat Dixie that year as well but clearly Dixie brought a better match-up to beat T than Boone did.

:lol: :lol: :lol: I hope you are kidding. I have been very supportive of the Raiders throughout their great run. The playoff setup this year compared to years past is a great base to discuss such matters. But you're right... It must be jealousy

02 and 04 Boone went further than Dixie.

They are the first to make it to the finals in quite some time but are they the best team we've seen from 4A NKY in that time period?
