Travis Prentice from Manual

David Johnson from Male and UK, played with the Steelers. Male had another kid that played for Arizona for a little while. Can't remember his name.

OK the Petrino's are gone. So be it. What is the word on Kragethorpes' boys? He has three. Where will it be Trinity or X?

I honestly don't expect the family to pick up roots and move AGAIN. I expect them to stay in Louisville and the old man fly in and out. Atlanta is a short flight and with 5 Million a year in the pocket, he can purchase his own jet.

They do focus on the Big 3 more. Anyway, what is up with this guy? He has not had any proven stability in the past 10 years. Did he leave for a better job?

Guess that newspaper never heard of Beaumont? Would have loved to have seen him make the list.

Why wouldn't he stay? With the new 6-A coming about, Beatty has the opportunity to be a state champion coach in two different classes. They will be in the same district which a basically a cakewalk through to the 3rd round for them. I say he stays to have the opportunity to win a title in the new 6-A.

Why the hostility? Just trying to show the expectation of excellence that comes with being associated with Trinity, X and Male. I'm sure you don't mean that those outside of the parochial system should stay out. If that were the case then Tayshawn McBroom, Blaine Donnell,Steve Orndorff,Donald Barnett and countless others would not have benefited from the Trinity experience.

He made a point in the article about the fans and students. That being a part of Trinity is a way of life. I believe that. I have always said that is one of the reasons for the success of the parochial schools and Male. These kids in those programs come out of the womb knowing who and what they love. They start kindergarten knowing they are destined for that particular school if they stay on track. Then those that haven't been in the system are brought in and are held to the same standard of excellence.

I don't know if he was a guest of UL or not but I did walk past him coming down FLoyd St that day and he was dressed in ALL WHITE. I would hope if he was a guest of UL, he wouldn't do that but then again who would have thought he would wear neon yellow shoes the first game of the playoffs while his teammates were in black.

Not disputing a great year with what was coming back. Just wondering what could have been had it not rained those two weekend and the broken bone barrage the last game.

I've never been invloved in game that involved injuries to the top two guys at one position. First we had the rain the first X game, then the rain in the Male game and then the injuries in the second X game. Our luck sucked this year. I guess the staff needs to go to more mass/church over the off season.

THose two QB's is enough to destroy the psyche of any team. That freshman QB that played was just coming off an injury himself. He hadn't played in almost 5 weeks before playing in the Male Freshman game the week before. He had broken fingers and his hand was actually still somewhat swollen in the X game. I must say for this youngster to be thrust into this situation, he played about as well as could be expected.

I didn't see the Freshman game but I did see the JV game. The Manual JV team has been playing with A LOT of freshmen this year. The QB's that were being used were the 2nd and 3rd string QB's. Also starting two freshmen linebackers. A lot of kids (Sophmores and Juniors) that would normally play on Mondays didn't play this year due to the fact that they play MOST of the game on Friday. This includes a Soph starting at QB and Freshman starting at FS neither of which played Monday or Tuesday.

That is the point I was trying to make.

They don't say if the coach told them not to donate blood on that day. There was practice on that day. It might not have been a good idea to doante a pint and then try to go out and pratice that afternoon. Kind of sounds like the matter of donating may have already been addressed.

That is cool. I wouldn't expect Male to let down much. Big Rivalry game, big doings around the school with this being the 150th anniversary of the school and a lot of activities going on. If anything they may get distracted by all that but it is doubtful.

Sounds like you are predicting a HUGE WIN by the Bulldogs. Does Manual even need to show up?

My fault. I guess the CJ hasn't considered all the scenarios if Male were to lose.

No the CJ didn't get it wrong. They are assuming that Male will beat Manual.

Having been involved with both sides of this Rivalry. It is indeed one of the most intense in this areas. It is a shame that those in the media have chosen to focus their attention on the T-X rivalry when the Male-Manual game is the grandaddy of them all in Louisville. Male and Manual both came upon hard times in athletics and this caused the game to lessen in intensity. It took Manual a little longer to get back on track but I would say that in the past six years they have more than held their own with Male. It would be nice for the media to jump back on the bandwagon where this game is concerned . I think Louisville could handle TWO mega-games a year. This is also the 150th year anniversary for Male High. There is a big celebration planned with alumni from across the country being invited for school tours,dinners,Hall of Fame Banquets and reunions.

Then it will be Manual's home game and the ONLY time X will need to play there.

This the the LAST TIME you X'ers will have to worry about the condition of Manual's field for a big game like this. Just a few more games in this season.

THey started the into with their Mom but didn't say a word about the two of them. Not one stat given.
