As a New Cath grad, that is a hugh step. Thanks

I believe that Ryle is extremely good, but not the best. They scrimaged Cov Cath in pre-season and did not move the ball well. This may have been due to the number of injuries they had in that scrimage. I also believe that Highlands has a more solid team than the Raiders. Highlands could easily be where CCH is now if they would have won the re-match. In my opinion Ryle is the 3rd best team.

Do you know if this is the same selection that was in the Post on Thursday and they left out Special Teams and the O-Line or is this a different selection? I am Shane Popham's dad and I have been told several different stories, I am try to find out which is the correct version. Thanks

Shane is 5'11" and 179. ACT 29 & SAT 1280. 3.86 GPA. Boston College has already committed to a kicker.

To the best of my knowledge he was offered a scholarship. UK advised they were not interested in Pops.

Trinty's kicker has commited to UK.

Shane: Kicks off a one inch tee.

Cov Cath is doing a good job of helping. They have sent out a number of tapes with very positive feedback, but again no one has steppped up to the plate. It is a little disheartening, but the good news is that several 1AA schools want him to play immediatley. We will continue to send out new tape and have set up a web site at http://www.shanepopham.com a friend set it up and did a good job.

Glad to hear the young man from Johnson Central is OK. We were worried when we saw him go down. The fans from Johnson Central are first class and I am glad we made the trip. Their announcer at the game did a great job for both schools, food was great, people were friendly, and a great atmosphere for a high school football game.

He has not received any offers as of yet. Only schools that are showing real interest are Holy Cross, Harvard, Centre, Dayton, & Union.. Fla has asked for game film weeks ago, but have heard nothing. Thanks for asking.

Henry521 Thank you for your comments. I could not have said it any better. I know from a very reliable source that Cov Cath Coach R. was at the Coach's meeting and that the kids from Cov Cath were represented by him. Not everyone that gets nominated gets elected to a spot. The 24 selected represent all of N. Ky and not one school. I am proud and happy for those nominated and even more proud of all of the N. Ky athletes who play for the love of the game and not the trophy. Being able to play is the most important part for every kids that put on a uniform, no matter whose uniform it is. Play hard and play proud.

Hats off to the offensive line. They get better each week and Josh continues to get better with each snap.

Sorry, it was the 42 yarder.

I agree, I think that was his best kick. 25 mph wind in his face and rain.

Pop's field goals for the year are: 57, 54, 54, 53, 47, 42, 35, 35, 34, 34, 31, 31, 30, 27, & 20.

He is still waiting for his first real offer. Have heard from Holy Cross in Boston, Harvard, Centre, & Campbellsville. Florida has asked for game film, and Akron has talked to Coach R. Hopefully something will come soon. Thanks

Pop's is 15 for 20. 4 field goals of 50+ 57, 54, 54, & 53.

Good JOB Brandon. First class student and athlete. He will make someone in the Ivy League very happy.

I wish the rumors were correct about Gaterville, but all that we know at this point is that they called CCH Coach R. and asked for game films a week before the first CCH-HHS game. I have received a number of calls from friends at HHS advising me that we are going to get an offer from Gaterville, but to date nothing has come our way. Again thanks for everyone's help, I never realized what a struggle this was.

No real offers yet.

My pipe dream, Josh, Shane & Kater all go to the same school. They have been together for 4 years and what an asset to any special teams unit. Holder, punter, kicker, & long snapper, that's a deal.

NC 21 Beechwood 14

Breds 28 Indians 21

Thanks to everyone and their good words. To date Shane has received no solid offers. Only Holy Cross of Boston has been true since the Boone County game, they want us to do a visit sometime in December. again thanks

I agree there is more to this story or the coach is a total nut case.
