There has never been an extra official for any game in Kentucky. I have never seen a extra official dressed up just taking notes.

You are grossly misinformed. In the Pros and in college you are correct, in Highschool there never has been. Schools won't pay for an extra official to standby just in case.

I was saying that was bad that they had to move the Back Judge in considering how much Conner throws. Refering to the crew being short handed in a pass happy game. If they were short handed in the 3 yard and a cloud of dust days it would have been not such a big deal. You can never justify leaving the sidelines uncovered. Unfortunatley schools won't pay for a back up official for reasons like this. But you also have to realize without that extra set of eyes calls made by the Back Judge will go unnoticed.

How far into the game did the white hat go down? If they moved the back judge in, then that was bad considering how much Conner wings it.

even though Cross Backs is in quotations, isn't this a kind of bigotted attack, similar to using a racial or predjudiced word or term? I don't particullary care for the language mister. If you were Jewish would it be ok for me to call you something derogatory? There has to be some validity with these accusations if multiple people are bringing it up. As for the game, HC is grossly undermanned and will be lucky to get out of the 1st round. Beechwood only attempted two passes? They will need to pass more if they want to get out of the region with all the injuries they have encountered.

Coming from a hugely reliable source that was at the game, in the stands, Kozerski was quite upset at what he percieved as Beechwood players throwing low blows in the pile. This comes from a source that has zero ties to either team. My source told me that he's heard of this going on with the Beechwood players in years past as well. I trust my source 100% with anything.

You are preaching to the choir. The enquirer prep coverage was below the Post's in my opinion since I started reading the paper in the early 90's. The higher ups at the Enquirer will never spend the money on prep sports coverage in my opinion. Just another excuse to save money. Buying an Enquirer anymore is like buying a periodical more than anything. Feel bad the Richard Skinner has to get on BGP to tell people it was a mistake.

If the so call Brilz v Koz incident happened during an injury timeout (assuming the player hurt was on the field), why was Brilz (an assistant coach) on the field? The only people on the field should be the trainer the players and the head coach(s). An asst. coach should not be close enough to talk to the opposing head coach.

I don't blame him either. Could you imagine how much she'd be on him the rest of his life if he did miss this? But I do wonder if his wife had to get her parents to sign a form allowing Ben to marry her, or was she of legal age already?

veteran NFL officials make enough off of the NFL to live comfortablly and support a stay at home mom. Most of these officials likewise have jobs that allow them to be gone 2-3 days a week or more (if needed) i.e. Lawyers, doctors self-employed etc. Officials want to keep thier current pension plan plus they want a raise, due to the fact that they will be held partially responsible when a player has a concussion and stays in the game. They are in fact being asked to be on the field doctors and officials. I can't blame them with all the lawsuits going on these days. The owners don't want the officials to keep thier pension seeing as how they are classified part time, and the owners own part time employees do not have a pension plan in place. I side with the officials on this one. Speaking of officials i can't help but notice the vast difference in physical shape of the replacement refs vs. the regular officials.

Why? Danville beat a team that is now 1 win and 2 losses. Danville is 2 wins and one loss. Nothing says class dominance.

I have to agree 1000000000000000000% percent. How many Division 5 or Division 6 schools hang with Division 1 schools in Ohio? You think NCC and CC would play every year if CC did what it should do every year to NCC. The embarrasment should be that NCC scored 16 poinmts on a 6A school. NCC fans need to get off that high horse and realize not every year is their year.

Should we give CC so much credit already? They beat Milford and NCC. They were destroyed by CovCath. Milford was embarassed by Edgewood, OH. NCC is a 2A school and was beaten by McNick (Cincy). A class 6A team should handily beat a 2A school.

Why did they play a JV game on a Friday Night?

Is your quote saying that quickslick is a coach from Beechwood? If so how many people on here are coaches in highschool? Is this the right forum for a coach to be on/in if so?

Again people like Lionscoach is what is wrong with today's sports. Everyone gets there feelings hurt. 40-0 is hardly running up the score. They scored 6 TD's. What are the kids from CovCath to do? Lay down or let Dixie score so they feel better about themselves? Give me a break, if you want the score to be closer then stop the other team, or score some points on your own.

It appears I have struck a nerve. I would call beating Trinity fortunate not luck. You beat them fair and square. But no way you can tell me that Spritzky couldn't have been more succesful had he been more tough on his players and emphasized conditioning more.

Culture is a good word, but tradition might be a better word. You may not have the best talent or the best players but coaching can overcome those most times. The tradition of being almost afraid to make your players mad at you has set Dixie back years. A coach that does not play favorites and pushes his players to the max is what they will need for years to change the mindset instilled during the Spritzky/Sorrell years.

Currently watching the game (I DVR'd it), can't help but notice that LC is killing itself with turnovers. Also saw a play where a player for LC makes a tackle for a one yard loss a tugs on his jersey to make it seems like they are dominating while they are in fact down 14-0 in the first. Also on Ensworths 2nd TD drive the running back was called out at the 30 when he should have had a td run, you can see an LC asst. coach point to the sideline then the offcial blows it dead. Replay clearly shows he was not out of bounds. Poor showing thus far by the Ky team and officials.

Awww boo-hoo. Some coaches yell and some calmly coach. When are we going to stop babying todays players? You think coaches don't use these tactics in college? At the NAIA/D3 level. It only gets worse the further along you play. Football is a tough game played by tough people, coached by tough minded people.

Am I the only one who thinks it is rediculous that fans of a 6A school are stoked about beating a 2A squad that hasn't been relevant since 2006 and 1A school that was missing their best player? A 6A school should never lose to a school from 1A or 2A.

Glad I chose another game to go to this evening. I don't know how Scott Co. deserved so much hype. You may hate his guts but Dale Mueller can flat out coach, and you can never accuse his players of being "gassed". There should never be any excuse for players being gassed in a game. You may not be a good coach or your players are just outmanned, but you can always run and do conditioning drills to the point your football players are the most fit people in your school. With Mueller at the helm and with Ky's stupid 6 classes Highlands will only lose by beating themselves, and good luck there.

Mr. Skinner I have nothing but respect for you, Ryan Ernst and Certainlly Terry Boehmker did and does for NKY prep sports. But the enquirer's depth of coverage is no near on par as the Post was. I've emailed the proper Enquirer personel four times to be exact and was told thank you for your concern and they were constantly working on improving the paper.

I have been asking myself this questin for a few years now. When NKY had both the Post and the Enquirer, the Post out did the Enquirer in prep coverage. In my opinion the only time the Enquirer had good prep coverage was on Sundays, when the Post did not publish a paper. Now with the Post kaput for how many years now, you would think the Enquirer would improve its coverage. Instead it seems they have almost gotten even mor lax on their coverage on both sides of the river. Newark fan is the reason for this thread, asking for prep previews, hopefully no one wasted their time and money or his time in sending him the Enquirer's prep preview. It seems the Enquirer is putting as little money,time, and effort behind prep sports in our region.
