Yeah, that didn't work out at all for Cousins, Davis, or Towns.

And yet, somehow, they were able to win it this year without that type schedule.

For a 1A roster where depth is a matter of math, it is brutal.

Supposedly the reboot consists of Barbee running the defense, Payne running the offense and Cal taking a step back. THat is also good coaching. Not all coaching is x and o's

I am going to chime in on the use of the TE at championship levels since that is where Highlands wants to go back to. Every school who won a state championship this year uses a TE out in the field. I won't even cheat and say inside the 20 or at the goal line. 6a Trinity 1 sometimes 2 5a Bowling Green 1 sometimes as a fullback 4a Johnson Central 1 many times 2 many times with a fullback 3a Belfry 1 many times 2 2a CAL 1 sometimes 2 1a Beechwood 1 sometimes 1+a fullback

What many people outside education don't know is that a major plank in evaluating schools is the percentage of proficient students. As has been pointed out attracting proficient students to your school doesn't make you a better school in reality but it does in the eyes of KDE. When growth is measured most often it is measured wrong. Take the act scores of a school for example. Year A the average act is 18 and year B the average act is 19. Growth right? Not really, you just tested a 2 different groups of kids in the 11th grade. The only way to measure real growth is to measure the same kids from one year to the next. Thats when you can tell if teaching and learning are going on. You can be at the lowest ranked school in the state right now, take your kids at 3rd grade reading level in August and have them at 5th grade by May 2 full years of growth in 1 year and nobody knows or cares because by proficiency standards its high school and they are supposed to be at 10th grade level for example. You are failing says the rankings. Little Johhny Overachiever enrolls at school across town as a freshman reading on 10th grade level in august and 10 grade level in May and your school is awesome says the rankings, because he is above 9th grade proficiency.

Brandon Smith?

Apples to apples GROWTH is what our entire education system should be built on. Thats how schools should be evaluated and thats how teachers should be evaluated.

Shuffling chairs on the titanic.

Maybe we can pretend we aren't on the road and overcome our #109 rated defense to squeak one out.

If I were the income tax czar mine would start on the poverty threshhold. Which in 2015 was $11770 for a single person and $4160 for each additional person.

Economically what would it look like if there were no income taxes at any level?Replace it with a 10% sales tax for state and 10% federal.

Sarks roots are wide zone and WCO passing game. They are plugging him in to keep continuity of the system.

Some people are reporting that Saban was already seeing some of the same things begin to develop that he had as problems with Kiffin. A. I want to know what those are, because Saban knows winning and Kiffin/Sark are from the same tree and know great offense. B. Kiffin and Sark are 95% identical offensively so why get Sark to begin with?

Count Chocula: fangs, can turn into a bat and fly, super strength, already dead, all the vampire powers, etc.

Yeah, like someone posted today. Obama said he visited all 56 states.

I'd rather be saying "what if" and making my excuses with the #1 class than the #100 class. Everyone has circumstances, everyone has luck good or bad, everyone has to develop and deploy the talent.

:lol2:

Also had the most improved scoring offense in FCS this year. Now need to make strides on defense.

Where did he end up?

3rd option? Behind who?

I want to give an honest thoughtful answer to why any dynasty falls. Hubris. People forget what it takes. People forget how they got there. People take for granted that it will always continue, opponents will always be intimidated, and we will win because its what we do. People get twisted and think you are defending something instead of going out and repeatedly taking it. The end goal becomes more important than the process and peoples views become superficial instead of deep, focused, and preparatory.

You know what? All they had to do was not go to the speech.

EKU has their recruits listed on the roster today. Franklin is not on there.

Oh, That is great
