No. And when people talk about rotating, they only talk about Columbus, NEO, NWO, and SWO. Peden would be a great place to play the championship games.

Crying? LOL. Pickerington and Mentor fans are both having a complete meltdown over the officiating in their game. Mentor fans are crying that Pickerington coach bought refs. Both agree that officiating was terrible though,

Re: Refs Blow It

Could you please show me what rules are “vague” as you put it? Holding and pass interference are subjective judgment calls. Holding could be called on about 50-70% of high school plays. The technique is still a work in progress at best. Most good no-calls are those where the penalty didn't impact t...

Re: Refs Blow It

In the NFL this season, the reversal rate of reviewed plays is hovering right around 34%. NFL. Elite officials. Wrong 1/3 of the time when reviewed. What do you think the high school error rate is? On another discussion board that rhymes with snappy, there are a few high school officials who are act...

Re: Biggest upset you have witnessed in High School Football?

2012. Hartley vs Ottawa Glandorf was the presumptive “real” state championship game. Hartley squeaked by with the win, and everyone presumed they’d win out with ease. Took a quick 14-0 lead over Clinton-Massie next week and the game was “over.” Everybody slapping each other on the back. But nobody o...

Re: Region 11

Like Hartley just can’t pray their line becomes better. The line is probably good enough for region 11. Not sure about DeSales. For the region, it's just a matter of not making a tons of mistakes and outscoring everybody. I'd say we're beatable by Jackson, Granville, Sheridan, and London (those are...

Re: Transfers:

If by transfer you mean kids who leave high school A to go to high school B, we get little to no incoming ones at Bishop Hartley. Mostly guys from St Chucks who weren't completely ready for the admirable academic rigor they have there. It's just not practical academically because four years of relig...

Re: Refs officiating games from where they are Alumni

There's a ton of DeSales alumni officiating in central Ohio. I'd never thought about it one or another until a terrible and decisive defensive holding call was thrown against the Hawks in a tight game a few years back after an incomplete third and long. Defender was beat bad and couldn't have dreame...

Question about this game , I think everyone New wheelersburg was going to lose was the score surprising or about what was expected The score was about what was expected. I didn't expect Wheelersburg to get a stop on the starting offense, and I didn't expect Wheelersburg to get a first down on the s...

Re: Bishop Hartley @ Wheelersburg

Another player to look out for is #78 on offensive line. I've never seen the OLine clicking this early in the season the way they were last week. The slobs are really the stars of our team even if they play in relative anonymity. He's being recruited by Cincinnati and Maryland so far. Good family. H...

Wife was wondering facilities for the visitors. Looks like a building in the south end zone on the Google satellite. Are the visitors allowed to use it?

What’s the scouting report on The Burg. Who are key players to watch?

What food places are around?

What’s the parking situation for visitors?

Re: Bishop Hartley @ Wheelersburg

So here's the scouting report... Bishop Hartley is definitely a system team. New kids are molded to fit the system, not the other way around. We are always fast, and we are always very physical. Defense is 3-4 with smart linebackers and fast defensive backs who play man and tend to be handsey. Expec...

You either win or lose and after its complete, nobody cares about your aspired personal ambition. The only metric that is measured is wins against losses. The sentiment is great and commendable.

Re: Bishop Hartley @ Wheelersburg

Best talent money can buy Hartley isn't a school with a large endowment like the big 6 schools run by religious orders. We do our best to help all kids have access to the kind of quality education that isn't available in the local city schools, but we've got a fairly limited budget for academic sch...
