Re: Kirtland vs Versailles

Coaching is clearly important. Nobody said it wasn't. Here is a current economic map. Steubenville, for example, has never been economically distressed and has even been a boom town at one time. Jefferson county is not what it once was, but it is not an economically distressed county and is within e...

Re: Kirtland vs Versailles

If it was just about income and jobs, Indian Hill would dominate Ohio football. Indian Hills has tons of schools to compete and take their better athletes in the private schools. You don't have that up in MAC land, and open enrollement is not a thing. And if you don't think income, jobs and familie...

Re: And then there were none

Have no idea how you escalated to this. Thank you for the opportunity to explain. I chose exaggerated illustrations to highlight a principle. The principle is that saying something at the wrong time, even if it's true, is rude and inappropriate. The examples I chose are things that you would never ...

J.O.B.S., and income the footprint of that conference all ranks in the top 3rd in Ohio in personal income, household income, and low unemployment.

And what? I am freely sharing my opinion, just as you have done many, many times on this board. If you don't like it or agree with it, 1) you don't have to read it, or 2) share your thoughts as to why you disagree. My comment does not diminish the Redskins accomplishments at all, they came through ...

Re: And then there were none

Dalton's only loss was to Kirtland by a score of 14-7. This game for Caldwell is going to be really ugly. And? That sounds a lot like negating everything they've accomplished this season. Easy to do from your comfortable spot in the cheap seats. And what? I am freely sharing my opinion, just as you...

If you can look at a map and accept Wheelersburg in a southeastern Ohio discussion, Caldwell shouldn't be much of a stretch.

Re: DVI R23

You didn’t answer any of my questions. I want the best teams in each region to advance and I want the best matchups in the playoffs. Harbin points is broken. Old 8 team model didn’t give of us the best 8 teams and that’s fact. There was an upset in every region. No idea why people complain about mo...

Re: DVI R23

Who gives out trophies for making the playoffs ? I just want the best teams to advance and I think 16 teams is the best way to decide that. I get it you liked when it was 8 teams and all the teams would try to make the easiest schedules possible. Now losing a game or 2 don’t hurt you so we get bett...

It doesn't. None of the underdogs is going to win the region, which is the whole reason they're doing this tournament. What? Enough of the crazy talk about winning the tournament.

Re: Time to go back to 8 team playoff???

There was an upset in every region. Like I’ve been saying the schedules are not even. You can’t just use top 8 and get the best teams in each region. I love deciding the games on the field. I love that coaches can be more aggressive scheduling during the reg season. Except, after ten weeks of games...

Re: Time to go back to 8 team playoff???

Why are we complaining about an extra week of football smh. You old heads never stop. Nothing to do with being old--just some people don't believe in the generation of participation trophies. Decide the games on the field not with computers. I'm wondering if you feel any different now that your tea...

I'd be surprised if anyone here has seen Tusky Valley. Looks like a tough draw for an opening playoff matchup, but they're a low seed for a reason.
