I see what you are trying to get at ....but ...if you take Louisville with its large population,,,,,,you also have several more schools competing for those kids...it's not like there is one school getting all these kids....

Trinity has a very nice complex.....and don't forget how many parents and alumni contributed time, talent and treasure to make it happen...!:thumb:

:thumb: Great job Watusi!......100 % behind you!

St.X football player Mike Tullis (senior) will represent the USA in the World Junior Weight Liflting Championships in the 181 pound class. He could have also competed in the Super Heavyweight...but chose not to because of a conflict with football...He is a DT on the team... Great job and Good Luck. http://www.saintx.com/news/news.asp?ID=2061

Beaumont is ...to say the least...a handful.....but X has 3 dangerous backs: 1.) Vic...is well known and should be considering that he averaging 10.8 yards a carry and a TD every 4 runs. And you would be surprised to see how much of these stats came after first contact 2.) Duece Finch...is the new guy (soph) with close to Vic speed and moves but with more size and the ability to just truck you. Many believe that he will be the best back to ever come out of X... 3.) Drew Eckman...a very hard running fullback who worked his butt off in the off-season. X.... as everyone knows.....runs their QB also... X this year has shown the ability to pass....and with speedster Will Simmons at WR....it makes defending the Tigers a lot harder than just worrying about Vic.... Un-believeable X stat.....X has almost 2 times more passing yards than our pass-happy rivals at Trinity....( X has played 1 more game) Keying on Vic is not a good idea!

I agree with RP....you just can't expect these kids to come in the first couple of games and be firing on all cylinders with a new Off. Coord. There has to be time for adjustments....T will be fine...and will get better each week. Their D looks like they will carry the team on their shoulders until the O is fine tuned.. Manual always plays tough in the big games

Highlands...so far has rushed the ball for 904 yards and passed for 230 (KHSAA site). Their QB is 20-44 in pass attempts. You must have a better passing game to beat X. The tigers have only allowed 97 yards rushing in the past 3 games combined...and those teams were no cream-puffs. X will pressure the Highlands QB to try and force him into bad decisions. His less than 50% completion rate will hopefully fall below 30% in this game. I pick X by 14.

I wonder how he thought the parents of the Evangel kids felt??? Kick the ball and we wouldn't be having this conversation....kick the squib but not intentionally 10 yards and he wouldn't feel heated over someone questioning his sportsmanship..... It was his decision....He can deal with it!.....

Everyone has seen Rosanne Barr...remember the moonings???...there you go have at it!!!

Great minds think alike!:ylsuper:

Unless the rules have changed this year....he is not allowed to play 8th graders in a varsity game...Soccer and football are the exceptions to the 8th grader eligiblity rules

I'm going to have to call him on some of this....There was no doubt that they were kicking on-side kicks...no doubt!....On one kick the ball didn't even go 6 yards so for some reason they were given another try and that kick only went about 11. All of these so-called squib kicks never went more than 15 yards....and the other players all collapsed to that side of the kick....kinda of sounds like an onside me....sure as heck looked like one. They did start to run the ball late in the 4th but still had the majority of their 1st string in the game..... I would not kick to #5 either...if he played for a team with better lineman....or just more of them....he would be included in some Mr. Football talks...He has Vic Anderson moves, speed and size.....He is a one man show for Evangel....His name is DeMarcus Blakemore....he will be a steal for some college team as he is under the radar playing for such a small program that has only been around for about 4 years.

: One of their parents said they do play a couple of 11-man games....and Evangel is just the opposite...they only play a couple 8-man games....:creepy:

I would like to hear what the coaches' excuse is....and I would really like to hear what he would have to say after....like you said.......when it comes back to haunt him..

didn't at all....just misunderstood....thought you missed it

Gutsy call...but ooh so true!

Missed the point a little there didn't ya?....I wasn't close to the best...but I didn't settle for a woman that the whole country has seen naked either....I'll take the latter..thank you...

In my time at X...I was far from the exception...It was the silver spoon kids that were the exception. Are their rich kids at X...of course....but the majority of kids at X were just like me...working middle class...and proud of it. You sound like a coach that cares about the kids...and I applaud you for that...it takes someone who shows they care to make a difference..

I'll one up both of ya...I married a wonderful woman who didn't show her stuff off to the entire nation....and we have 5 kids...:ylsuper:

I just got home from watching a little 8-man high school football. Evangel Christian played host to Beth Haven. The final score was 90-40 Beth Haven. Evangel Christian has only 14 players on the whole team and 2 of those were out hurt by the 4th Q. Beth Haven had around 25 and played their starters the whole game. They even on-side kicked every kickoff in the 2nd half except the final one. They also faked a PAT when up 40 points:eek: ....with their starters... I would be thoroughly embarrassed to be a Beth Haven parent. They had several kids on the sideline that did not see playing time, while their starters were running on-side kids when up 30, and 40 points.:mad: How do you justify this?....and from a so-called Christian school at that????:irked: :madman: :fight: Totally class-less...!

X's defense has only given up 97 total yards rushing in 3 games. :ylsuper: In 3 games Vic Anderson has averaged 10.8 yards a carry and a TD every 4 carries...:ylsuper: Outstanding!

X's starting D held FC to -50 yards rushing....awesome.....After X emptied the bench FC finished with a total of 6 yards rushing on 26 attempts. Very impressive. FC only had 91 yards passing for the game for a total of 97 yards of total Offense.....Outstanding! Vic, again, was a man playing among boys....14 carries for 149 yards and 3 Tds. ...over 10 yards a carry..... X must improve on special teams....

58-13 final X wins

X scores again...Joe Montano from 2 yards out....PAT good....Freshman kicks 58-13 X

Knotts rolls out another good run 23 yards and then hurts right leg....Wish him well...
