North Oldham

Only 79 points given up this year. Impressive, except for the wins have come against teams with a combined 22-65 record:

Atherton 2-8 (139 points scored)
Western 5-7 (339 points scored)
Nelson 3-8 (244 points scored)
East Jess 3-7 (213 points scored)
Collins 4-7 (237 points scored)
Waggener 1-10 (52 points scored)
N Bullit 1-10 (252 points scored)
Oldham County 3-8 (192 points scored)

I would say Western and Collins were the best 2 wins. They did have 2 loses to CAL, 24-21 (which is the most impressive game by far) and a loss to Spencer County 21-13.

Spencer Co. seems to be a run heavy team and ran for 345 yds that night. I watched a bit of Beasley for NO against Western, he's a nice running back. I wasn't real impressed with Western to be honest.

I'm just not sure what to make of this team. My thought is their SoS is going to catch up to them in the Owensboro/Madisonville game in the semifinals. Anyone anythoughts? Tommy2tone?

Warren East @ OHS

These two teams have become somewhat familiar foes in the KHSAA playoffs - meeting every year since 2011. In my opinion Warren East looks pretty damn good on paper - we all know the Brown kid for Warren East is a helluva player. Their resume isn't too bad this year either - every team they have lost to are good teams. I think OHS might have their hands full here in the 2nd round. I don't think WE wins this game but I don't think it comes easy to OHS.

Thoughts anyone?

McCracken County High School's Jack Haskins has resigned

McCracken County High School's Jack Haskins has resigned as head football coach of the Mustangs.

The Voice of the Mustangs, Eric Chumbler with 99.5FM The Fan, is reporting that Haskins resigned from his football coaching position earlier this morning.

Haskins completed his 36th season as a high school head football coach Friday night. Haskins' stops as head coach include Fulton County, Heath, Calloway County, Ballard Memorial, Graves County, Lone Oak, and McCracken County.

Haskins finished his career with an overall head coaching record of 275-124-2, including an 18-5 record in two seasons with the Mustangs. Haskins' 275 wins has him 13th on the Kentucky High School Athletic Association's Top Kentucky Football Coaching Wins List.

Before coming to McCracken County High School, Haskins was the head coach for Lone Oak High School for nine seasons. He led the Purple Flash to the KHSAA State Championship Game twice; once in 2007 and another appearance in 2009. Haskins also led the Heath Pirates to the KHSAA State Championship Game in 1975. Haskins holds the Lone Oak record for most coaching wins, as well as the highest winning percentage.

DC 41 Apollo 0

I must say I expected this game to be much closer than this. It is one of the most whop sided DC victories I can remember in recent history - I might go out on a limb and say this is the most we have ever beat Apollo. Complete game for DC tonight - all around I feel like they excelled in all facets of the game. I was impressed with the quarterback play and the O-line looked better than they have all year. Lecroy and Spiceson are players - DC could easily string together 4 wins at this point. Hats off to Marcus Kimbrell and staff - great job preparing the players and not getting down after starting out 0 -2. This is still a good DC football team and I think they will continue to show that. I am not sure what is going on at Apollo - I really thought they might come out this year a rally behind each other. Looks like when they get down they just stop competing - almost like they they think they've already lost by being down a few scores. Things can turn around quick in this crazy game of high school football - you can't ever quit gotta always keep playing hard! I hope Apollo gets the train back on the track - I miss when this rivalry was a real rivalry and the games were close! Good luck to Apollo the rest of the way out - they can still win some games this year.

The Good Ol' Days....

I miss the days when this board was an all out chest beating contest...I blame the following...

The movement of the BG, Owensboro & Mayfield people to BGPreps...

The downturn of the John Hardin contingent....

Butler Co. is down...or perhaps their internet is....

Green Co. is down and no longer coached by the angry midget...

DragonFire is like a whipped dog now...

Macdon doesn't know if he's a Purple, a Panther, or a Wildcat...but his name is on all the stadiums...

Raider 1 is now so adept at finding Catfish, he doesn't even need to ask anymore...

Lone Oak closed and apparently this new fangled school doesn't inspire the same nutso fanaticism...

Woody and the RVK people apparently have graduated college and gotten real jobs....

The MadCougar is lost forever...

That Lily guy is just nuts and scares everyone off his threads...

WaterFlash has no one to fight with...

Greenwood's crazy parents are all now crazy SW parents and they're too busy at cocktail parties...

Ohio Co.'s fans were like a flame out on that 9 win season and have since turned to ash...

The Taxman 's people have moved on and he is content sipping his brown water and watching the sunsets....

Broadcaster240 no longer straightens people out with actual facts...which they used to still ignore...

But there is hope! Adair Co. has gotten good and we all know what happens when these smaller schools get on a run!
