Both knocked out last week

I believe that comment will settle this one!!!! However, I think (this season only) you have to score as much as possible as T is legitimately in the running for the national title and the score matters.

As I understand the schools split the playoff games and the KHSAA keeps receipts from finals.

That's OK 15,000 fans x $8 per ticket= ~$120000 Subtract stadium rental ~$10-15K?? Each school takes home ~$50,000 KHSAA basically guarantees a non-Louisville team gets to the final(where they get crushed). I think this is a win-win!

James Quick is the only one that I am aware of

Does he have any D1 offers?

It will be closer this time Manual had some athletes and was missing starting RB last game T gets past next 2 games then the road will be smoother

This just illustrates how ridiculous the everybody gets into the playoffs approach is. Trinity has done nothing to try to run this up and it's still this bad I doubt there will be many close games tonight. Wasting time and money and risking getting kids hurt and I can't see many positives for either team IMO

TD Trinity 14-0

Backed up to 30 2-26

I agree that it should be a coach and parent joint decision. One concern for the parent is that the rule has changed, as I understand, and if a middle schooler plays high school, they have to sit a year if they go to a different high school.

Correct

Congrats to Troy and his family! Third commitment for Trinity senior class- 2 DI and one DII

That "nice Tiger win" earns a lot of respect in my eyes! That's why I made the comments that I did.

Nope. Cincy X was top 5 in Ohio so down year or not up there, Lou X must be playing better going into the playoffs Will it be good enough to push Trinity? :idunno:

Looks like round 3 of the playoffs just got a little bit more competitive for Trinity!

He really has no ground to stand on there as Ballard has had several kids in the past few years that came from outside the designated feeders and chose to go to Ballard for the better Bball program

I disagree! This is a huge interstate game and I think they should make an effort and start their best. If they start getting behind and victory seems unlikely then certainly sub and keep your starters from getting injured. If I'm Beatty and they don't give me their best shot, I beat them as bad as I can!

My bad, you are correct! However, I'm still not convinced that Renner would dodge anybody but i could be mistaken.

I'm not sure if this all Renner or those he works for making decisions:idunno: Renner has played T for years when he "didn't have to" and I think he likes to play the best during the season to preparefor regionals.

Not sure on Jtown and Eastern but I know Ballard refused to play them.

2010 team was up there. Great regular season winning all three tourneys and going 24 straight undefeated only to be upset in regional. If you look at the talent you had a mid D1, two D3 players who both were major contributors as freshman and two sophomores who have both committed to D1 schools. That compares to a low D1 player and two NAIA on 2005 team and I'm not sure who else played in college. As far as this season, they look great on paper and have a shot to get to Rupp, although Ballard will not be an easy out.

I'm not so sure Manual won't play them well next week IMO, Trinity played much better tonight than against X

The defense was very good tonight I think Manual is better than this score

That will be a tall order! One problem with X has been the lack of football players playing BBall. Their best athletes aren't playing Bball!
