Certainly, but getting kids in the door is easier said than done for schools such as Bishop Rosecrans, Fisher, FCA , and Portsmouth N.D. It's impacting the city schools too. Rising tuition, declining neighborhoods. It adds up to enrollment problems everywhere. Ready will be lucky to last another 10...

Athens did lose Ibi to Pick Central That's not possible. There is a giant wall around Pickerington that no outsider has been able to cross. It was necessary to keep out recruiters from the local obscure D5 parochial school offering brochures and t-shirts to young players looking for the prestige of...

Hartley plays TCC in regular season next year. Be good to get a preview. Go Bulldogs!

Burg beat them up pretty good Sure did. Difference in the game. Two breakaway plays resulting from missed assignments that probably would not have happened with #45 on the field. A team with the depth of Hartley can put the same athleticism on the field but it takes weeks/months to put the same lev...

If you have players, that haven't been there since junior high, then they count as 8 individuals. My guess there are a few on the team. They may not be accepted next year, unless they run a 4.4. Then a poor golfer gets his scholarship pulled. Football multiplier is 2 for a public school kid who ent...

Only if you're at your own house with your own AD calling the shots. OHSAA runs the timing and flow of that post-game.

Hartley enrollment declined the last two years and will likely decline again after the change in the state Ed-choice program and the implementation of the admissions placement exam.

Central Ohio, two teams and none of the suburban powerhouses. Southeast Ohio, three teams and very nearly four. Don't buy into the bias, and who cares if you get respect. You've earned it. Keep up the hard work (especially the next two weeks) and the titles will come. And that will silence the doubt...

What has Hartley been up to? I'm sure that they're not sitting in the film room sipping lattes and laughing at how slow the bumpkins are. You guys have an awesome head coach and staff who have built up your program into a regional force. And by region, I don't mean something limited to southeast Oh...

Let's roll Hawks. Strap on the game face and step up. Bring the A game. Hold onto the rock. Do what you do. Play those corners a little tighter, and prepare Freight Train #4. Stick with business as usual, and it will be business as usual.

I think Athens hasn't faced this level of competition all season. SVSM has got superior size and speed. This is bumpkins vs the real deal. Burrow will be totally rattled. Catholic schools can't be beat! Go Irish! That said, Athens wins by 3 TDs and Burrow throws for 300+ with no ints. Irish wishes t...

Congrats Bulldogs. Burrow is the real deal. Go bucks. And go SVSM Irish!

Here's a little Wisdom and Truth for my Latin quoting friend----you will have a long (as well as cold) night if you sit around waiting on Burrow's to get rattled. Hopefully, he'll enter the stadium just a little bit rattled from solid coaching and a studious film review. Invincible QBs throw jump b...

The best QB's in the land are drop back passer guys. Sure, in the NFL and at some college teams running a pro-style offense, but the dual threat is the predominantly recruited type. Burrow can run in a jam, but he's not any kind of speed guy. TV showed they could contain him to a degree with pressu...

2-8? Plus recruiting violations. Wow. I don't know whether to laugh or just merely snicker.

Last year, I thought the zebras let the Hartley DB's get away with a lot of holding down the field. I thought in HS it was no contact after 5 yards? Wah! Mommy, mommy. He tugged my jersey. Last time I checked, this was football. It the refs let them play, then they're going to play. After two calls...

I think DeSales has an outside chance. I don't see Williams running on that defense like he's run on everybody else. And I think DeSales can rattle Burrow, if they have their heads on straight. I'm counting the Steuby win as a fluke because they are arrogant jerks and they were at home and all that ...

I sat on the home side last year at nelsoville, and hands down the Hartley fans, which was pretty much the family of the kids playing, were the rudest people you've ever come across. No class at all. So that response is not surprising. My kids graduated years ago. I still go to the games. There's s...

Anything else? No. That was awesome. That previous posting was intended in jest. Football discussion everywhere and at every level drifts away from the main thread from time to time and a good spirit of competitiveness can get abrasive at times. I was just poking fun. I was nice enough to not throw...
