Yeah but i wanted to make the point that JSU gets kids in the south over EKU and thats the only team that south in the OVC

I know first hand about EKU's coaches and they are professional liars to high school athletes. They have lied to recruits and i know for a fact that they promised to pay student managers and then never forked out the dough. It is really crappy what grown men do to 20 year olds. I know all of their coaches and i warn against anyone i know who would ever play for that bunch. Ammons is too good of a player and from what i heard about the kid, too good of a person for EKU. Best of luck wherever he goes

He doesnt have the arm strength for UK but it is a shame that EKU isnt going after him. EKU's staff has made it clear that they want FL players that Florida, Florida State, Miami, South Florida, etc. and even Jacksonville State in their own conference dont want. Ammons would be an excellent addition for any Div-1AA teams in state

I think the State now allows one charitable poker tournament a year now too

De LaSalle has had some good players on those national championship teams. Maurice Drew RB of the Jaguars and DJ Williams LB for the Broncos to name two

Considering his lineman friend got an offer from Troy, that might mean they have some film on the kid. I see him as mid-major or the Championship Division of Div-1

I know that Mercer is playing in the Bob Allen Pigskin Classic, but i dont know against who. Maybe Southwestern or Corbin or Rockcastle. The other game is Danville vs GRC. And im pretty sure that Mercer does play Boyle. i think the 5th week again, but i cant be sure of the date

I agree that Jaggers and staff had little time to complete a whole offensive system for everyone. Im guessing that it was confusing for all the players to learn a new offense and they simplified it early in the season. They went to a Bear Bryant, we have 10 plays and we will be very very good at those 10 plays type mentality. We will have to see about next year. I saw the games, and Russell is a very good team but Trinity and Cov Cath would have won by aleast 4 TDs. They would have shut the run down and make them pass and it would have been over with.

I might have to agrue against Mercer unless they find a passing game in the off season. I dont think throwing the ball 1-5 times a game will win you any state championships against 5A opponents.

Yeah.... and Highlands and Cov Cath wouldnt?

I think Bowling Green opens up at BG versus Boyle County but i could be wrong

I think that Mercer plays Corbin in it next year with Danville playing George Rogers Clark. Im pretty sure about the Danville game, but not so much about the Mercer game besides the fact that Mercer plays in the BAC to open up next year Plus Lex Cath has their own bowl where Mercer played LCA this year

How much of that was JC stepping it up and Ashland collasping as they had tended to do this year? I'd like to know cuz i wasnt at the game.

i heard next years bowl is with Danville, GRC, Mercer and another school

I have seen both teams play and the question is, is when Rock puts 9 in the box can JC throw it? I think they cant, Rock is 2 dimensional and can run it and throw it. I like Rock because they have played 3 tougher opponents then anyone on JC's schedule in Bell x2 and Lincoln. Also Rock has experience in these types of games. This should be mountain football at its finest. Rock 31 JC 24

You say its not an excuse and then you use an excuse to say they arent as strong. I agree they are better than some seniors but it was evident that SW was attacking some of our players, ie one cornerback and the middle linebackers, who were both sophmores. Then you throw the ball to a freshman on 4th and 1 with your season on the line and he drops the ball. They sure are more talented but that doesnt mean they play with more heart and desire then others. As far as the system goes, is it really chuck smith's system anymore? Did the system leave with Chuck Smith 2 years ago? These are honest questions that i dont know the answer to so maybe someone else does because our "down" years have been the 2 years since Smith's departure. Is it just that the talent has been so low that even Smith couldnt have won with this team? All i know next year is that we will bounce back, we will do better, but we still need to congratulate the seniors for what they have contributed to the program.

I think to beat Mercer you have to have a physical downhill running game, but you also have to be able to pass the ball. Mercer's defense is good enough to take away what you want to do if you are one dimensional. You have to play clock management and keep their offense on the sideline, and capitalize on turnovers. Its a hefty load to do all this, but bringing down Titans arent supposed to be easy unless there is a Tennessee in from of Titans. The gameplan IMO has to be alot like the Boyle Co. gameplans against superfast Paducah Tilghman and Hopkinsville teams. That being said, Newport wont be able to do all of this. Newport- 14 Mercer Co. 28

i think the big factor this rematch will be Boyle's ability to control the clock. I feel that if they can win the time of possession they will win this game. SW has a great running game and they need to keep that on the sideline. If they can run it against a stellar defense then they can tire out the SW defenders. The same goes for SW against Boyle's defense. If Boyle's starters play 4 quarters BC- 24 SW- 21 If Boyle's starter play 2 quarters BC -7 SW-35 Go Rebels

QB- Tim Couch QB- Brian Brohm RB- Michael Bush RB- Shaun Alexander WR- Jacob Tamme WR- Montrell Jones TE- Derek Smith K- Taylor Begley D- 99 Boyle County

Marion will be riding in "high" after this season's close loss. Boyle's defense will be stellar and if special teams are as good as last time, i look for Marion to be flattened. But, if Boyle doesnt match and overcome Marion's intensity it will be alot closer. And if Boyle tries to dive it up the middle of Marion's defense like they did last game then it might be too close for comfort. I personally think Boyle will come out firing and take care of business. Im sure Boyle is wanting to make some serious noise in the playoffs, considering they will be underdogs the rest of the playoffs, if they can get past Marion. Boyle Co.- 35 Marion Co.- 7

If he lost his quaterback job, then it must be a family trait because his dad is about to lose his coaching job at Eastern :creepy: :creepy:

Danville is better all around. They have better skilled, better line, and two of the best coaches in the state in Sam Harp and Jerry Perry. Danville wins big.

No way Boyle loses this game. The defense is too good, and the offense really doesnt matter for this game. Taylor lost to PC, and Boyle should roll easy. 56-0

I remember the Boyle-Rockcastle state championships to be very hard hitting affairs. One hit by Boyle's LB was so late after the whistle but it was quite possibly one of the hardest hits ive seen on Rock's WR.

I didnt say they would keep it within 2 touchdowns. Their best effort would.
