Who I played with... Billy Vogt and Mike Kiernan

Ever:  Frank Jacobs or Eddie Ziegler

Good luck to St. Henry... but it will have collateral effects on sports like Cross Country where St. Henry has always been tough...  Sounds like they are doing it the right way though...start with Jr. High and move to JV and finally Varsity....

Was wondering if that is audio or video? Go BREDS!

Both!

One key for this game is special teams...If your Covcath you can't allow Noon to change the game on Special teams like he has in several games... He single handedly did so against Ryle... Not that others didn't play well but his Punt returns changed that game... He also kept them in the game against SK.... If Covcath can win or at least stymie big plays in Special teams... I think Covcath has a great chance... If not the streak might end on Friday!

If he wins this suit you can say goodbye to any type of Camera folks, reporters etc... No school can afford to allow that to happen...this is a crazy crazy world we live in today!

What about Terry Brown the Defensive Coordinator from CovCath he’s a NewCath alum but Campbell County resident. He was HC at Pendleton so he knows that part of the county.  

The move to Bottom at QB was brilliant... keeping both Noon and Benke as weapons really does open up the opportunities for the Highlands offense.... I also thought it was by far the best the O-line has played all year.   

It will be interesting to see how either CovCath or Cooper, with a week or two of preparation will attack the New look Highlands Offense.... Caught Cooper by surprise so they didn't have many blitz packages ready for the young QB.   As a result he had plenty of time to throw and did so excellently.... Will CovCath and Cooper change that philosophy and attack the young QB with various blitz packages and disguised coverages?   Will be fun to watch the chess match between coaches... because it's my opinion that physically all three teams are very evenly matched....

If Covcath can’t establish a passing game than can at least produce a 100 yards of offense  they won’t go far in the playoffs. Having said that I think they have the capability to do so.  

Elmer best Coach in the region!  

I think this is a good fit for both SCD and Coach Wirth!

I have no idea about getting a raw deal for either coach, but Eicher had one playoff game win in 4 years. That's why they got rid of him. I believe he is the only coach before and since to not have won a state championship. He was a very nice guy, he was not a great Highlands coach. The coach that replaced him won state in his second year with a terrible team by all accounts.

As turns out Coach Wirth and Coach Eicher had a lot in common... Eddie won state in his second year and is a run the likes of which CovCath has not seen since the 90's.

Coach Wirth did some nice things at CovCath but wasn't capable of taking them to the next level... his time at Purcell I believe confirms that he has trouble elevating his players to the next level... Good not great.... average not good..

If it’s dry CovCath by 17 or more. If it’s wet again. Covcath in a 1 score contest.

Does the Colonel Athletic Network do baseball games? I haven't heard of any being broadcast.

Keep those updates coming!

Pretty cool article about Michael Mayer on ND's rival site... hope I'm not breaking any rules by posting the link...

It's just not that often we see a local kid get this much publicity at a major school like ND..

BlueAndGold.com - 22 TE Michael Mayer Eyeing Return Irish Visit

One site is reporting a 10 year 5 Million a year deal.... If that is guaranteed, tough to turn down. Rumor also has it that Xavier is trying to put together a package that would pay him approx 3 Million a year for 6 years....either way the Mack family is going to get a big pay day out of this... as an XU fan I hope he stays...but I fear the $$ maybe too much to turn down.

I could see Joe Frederick going there before Ruthsatz... I think Ruthsatz made his choice a few years back... High School over college. He could have been an assistant at several colleges, but the life of a college coach and rearing a family don't go well together.

Can't think of better Hire for Campbell County! Great coach, great guy! He will instill a toughness in his team that will play well in the county.

They were defintely the most Dominate team ever... I agree hard to compare teams from different era's, but I don't think it's arguable that they were so much better than anyone else in KY in 5A. With the exception of a Trinity team or two, or maybe a Highlands team (maybe), no High school team I can remember was as dominate... definitely no previous Covcath team. It was a fun year to watch!

Now that would be very interesting!

Very disappointing loss... Winton Woods is a very average team... CovCath continues to struggle with pressure...I'm getting quite concerned about this team, talent is not an issue... execution is.

I hope he is successful, but he reminds me so much of Vince Young...I think his intellect is better than Vince, so maybe he will be able to make the jump.

Why does he deserve another year?

The complaints were so overwhelming this year.

IMO nearly 30 years of work at the school should earn you something... Not many folks were complaining when they lost in the state Finals the first 2 years...If in fact he let discipline slip and other issues with the program were a problem, unless he was told last year to fix it...he should be given the opportunity to correct the problems. Sometimes a problem doesn't surface until it's too late to fix it in a given year...If the problem continued then it's a different story. I can guarantee you that the complaining from the parents, players and Alum were significantly louder in the late 90's than they were this past year. They gave coach Schneider the opportunity to correct it, and he did. Leading to a pretty nice run for the program in the 2000's.

I'll be honest I was one of those who thought Coach Schneider should have been replaced... now that I'm older I recognize that winning Football games may not always be the most important thing a High School coach does...

Yup, also heard 5 players chatted with Ron. Interesting these folks all went to Ron versus the Athletic director?

I am disappointed in Ron...Dan deserved another year, he earned that. If things didn't get better, then make the move. He forgets that the year prior to his last region title in Boys Basketball, also his last season as HC... Some of those same people were trying to get him fired as BBall coach...for not doing better with a stacked basketball team that featured 3 future D1 or D2 college Basketball players.

1 small grade school left in northern Campbell? Let's see, there's St. Therese, St. Thomas, St. Catherine, Holy Trinity, and you could just about say St. Joe's since NCC gets a fair amount of kids from there. So 4 1/2.

I think his point is there used to be... St. Stephens, Corpus, St. Vincent, St. Bernard, St. Anthony, St. Francis and Sacred Heart... All of which had a larger enrollment than the Holy Trinity (which they all morphed into). The feeder system to NewCath is way smaller now, and St. Catherine and St. Thomas are significantly smaller as well. They have to get 50% of the St. Joes kids, which gets harder and harder each year, to have a chance to be a viable school let alone a viable football team.
