LUCK

Not if you are a fan of the school. Not if you a player or parent and this is your year.

Agree.

Maybe in Xs and Os, maybe. But what most don't get, even some St. Xavier supportors here don't get, is that wins and losses are not the top priority with Coach Glaser or the Administration at St. Xavier. As long as Coach Glaser still has the burn and wants to coach he will be the coach. The important factor is how he runs the program.

I would like to see 2 officials removed. This would help eliminate the shortage of officials we now face.

The venue was great.

Alot of these teams are lead by highschool coaches and even though not KHSAA sanctioned the teams look awful familiar. Many of them are feeder programs to specific schools. When football is involved the old nasty "recruiting" word is sure to come up.

To improve over 2009 they need to beat St. Xavier. Who was the previous offensive coordinator under Coach Nichols before he started calling the plays? I cannot recall his name or where he is at now. I heard over the weekend from some Manual parents that he may be in line for the job.

Class System - Do away with the class system for all sports, or implement a class system for all sports. If there is going to be a class system make it uniform accross the board. If there are going to be six classes in football, there should be six classes in basketball, baseball, swimming, track, volleyballe, etc. Class System - If you are going to allow teams to play up then teams should be allowed to petition to play down. Ideally if you are going to have classes then teams should play in there respective class. No playing up or down. Practice Limits - Allow for practice anytime other than the designated dead period. Players and coaches are doing this now by disguising themselves as club and/or AAU teams. Transfers - Allow all transfer students to play varsity sports. If a student is allowed to go to a school they should be allowed to play for the school regardless. More to come.

I have mixed feelings about Mr. Tackett becoming the commissioner. I agree he is well qualified and put in the time. He seems to be dedicated and have a strong interest in football. According the the courier-journal he has already applied for the opening. My concern is that this is like hiring a coach in waiting. What are you going to get that is new and refreshing? Or are you going to be playing out of the same old playbook? It just seems to me that the KHSAA is in need of some new dynamics a different way of looking at things. I hope all candiates are looked at for all that they will bring to the table.

I nominate Oxnard. :dancingpa

Highlands v. St. X If we are talking 2009 St. Xavier would have defeated Highlands if they would have played. Why? Because that is what I believe would have happened and nothing anyone says will change may mind. So please do not waste your time quoting me or responding to me. Save your key strokes. I am stubborn, one sided, blinded, closed minded, a homer, arrogant, egotistical, and you can fill in the rest. If we are talking 2010 and beyond, see above.

What's next for the KHSAA? The status quo until the private vs. public, large vs. small, rural vs. urban, open enrollment vs. closed enrollment, or any other perceived disadvantage bubbles to the top again. The rise and fall of these elements seems to come and go with the different leadership within the KHSAA itself from year to year.

Call St. Xavier's athletic department and ask.

Even if you had one class and one champion someone would say they were the better team. I call that someone a fan.

Come on ball, follow me! Follow me!

Now you see it! Now you don't!

Does not matter if he is in the endzone. Did the ball cross the plane?

I know that Highlands plays up a division or two. Are there any teams that play down a division? Are there teams that for one circumstance or another should be playing down or up that are not? Should the KHSAA even alow playing in a different division?

1978

I am sure St. Xavier appreciates the compliment and recognition. Trinity is the team of the decade 2000 - 2009 in class 4A and 6A in regard to state championships.

Never? I only met Coach Nichols once at a Manual football fundraiser. He definately has/had a passion for Manual football. I know he was liked by the players and the parents I knew. I had heard some rumblings about differences with the current principal and Coach Nichols. I have seen many Manual games. They just could not win that one game that would put them over the top. Maybe the principle knows a coach who can get them to that next level.
