I think it is good to have a dead period, but I don't think it is safe to have it so close to football season. lets let a kids sit at home in the AC for two and a half weeks and then start 2 a days in the heat. Not smart why dont we have it right when each school ends.

Step one-Hire a coach Step two- fire everyone else and start over from scratch Step three- put a little more than 100 dollars into athletics.

I am surprised Ray G is looking at them, I think the Admin at Harrison must not be very supportive.

Brandon Combs was a GA at EKU and at UK, he would be a good choice for this job.

Surely the paycheck comment is false?

I agree that Mr. Football should be any age. I don't think it should be a senior only reward. The best is the best period that is what the award should be based on.

Do you want to know who exceeded 1000 yds or who led the state?

I Dont think it is the Boards business unless they are funding 100% of the program let the coach and the AD decided who does what

Morehead offers no football money the money you mentioned is available to prospective students.

If he gets any money at Morehead he would be a rarity.

that is a total misprint Willie benches around 275 same as his clean, that would be a great bench but that is not what his is.

Here is a few of the top ones at Franklin County Player Clean Squat Bench Dead Nate Newland- 285 455 250 565 Jon Watkins 245 425 300 500 Willie Smither 275 425 435 540 Terry Metcalf 235 405 250 405 Larry Taylor 225 400 240 455 Jeffrey Wheat 250 385 275 455 They also have a few younger kids that are exceptional for their age.

I would say it was what the ref called it, or did X and T pitch in a few thousand each for instant replay?

I can't really say anyone in particluar.. but I don't think cincy St. X is what you would call an "untalented team"

The team they lost to had an exceptional amount of D1 talent also.

I think all of us are realizing that maybe coaching wasn't the total problem at Nelson.

185 20 times 18 lbs would not be too strong huh.

Congratulations to Cory, he is a great competitor.

It is and would be very tough to build a program that would consistently beat lexington catholic. Are the other teams in the district just plain weak? I would say no, Franklin County and Harrison would be in the top rung of any 3a district and are improving every year and closing the gap. I believe that lex cath will not win the district in one of the next few years but as far as an every year thing they are #1. As far as the reasons for this they resemble the complaints for Prop 20 and the issue of administrative support, most of the schools in the district other that lex. cath face a constant fight to get the needed facilities, funds, and help they need to close the gap faster. Those things combined makes it hard to keep a coach that wants to stay for the long haul.

Baseball is the most conflicting sport to football it keeps them out of the weightroom, out of speed work, out of spring ball and out of summer 7on7 and other practices. Baseball coaches usually are not very willing to work with the football coaches either not always but most times. I would love to see football players do football only year around but working together is the best situation for the kids and the programs in a highschool setting.

Ammons from Franklin County- Can throw it, Run it, Tackle it.

I believe that to be considered strong 18 would need to be repped around 20 times.

The Admin could have told the assistants they didnt want to hire in house to start with, I hate when schools string along young coaches they are not going to hire, that is one of the worst things that happen in the coaching profession.

Butkus, they won this competition because they had kids in each weight class most teams did not have that luxury, there clean or explosive lifts as you mentioned did not look to be very well performed, if cleans and those lifts are there main focus i hope they work on using their hips and speed in a better fashion. I agree with the explosive lifts being the most important.

I would say the odds are in their favor and it is almost 100% garunteed that one of them will make it.
