SHS probably would have gotten Rice if they needed a starting qback. I don't know of any specific players transferring in. I just hear stuff. And yes, the WR from NW has filled the gap left by Larry Stephen's (not that he has Larry's numbers).
Yeah but you picked Liberty over them.
I think it will be like the Northmont, Wayne and Liberty games. SHS will jump out in front. X will make adjustments and play catchup all game. Then, it will be up to the defense to slam the door shut
Was Robertson the coach at the time?
If SHS makes it to Canton this year. Even if they lose, I would think they would be rated #1 in next year's state polls
No schools were still split believe his last name was Schaefer or something whoever took over after Broering
They tried. Trust me
Right, it was Aaron Shaffer. I went to the very last North-South game and it was downright pathetic. But, I think Robertson was hired already and Shaffer was brought in just to close things out. But, I'm sure Robertson would have loved to have Braxton on that 2010 team with DePriest. They could have won State that year
Sure did
Why?
Why are you so negative towards SHS? Nobody knows when anyone will have a monster game.
I thought it was a combination of factors— Wayne was better (that night) than they’d been during the season; X was worse (that night) than X had been; there was the unpredictable factor (e.g.- the missed call on the blocked punt)... just like the last election, some times the favorite doesn‘t win— and there are usually multiple factors that explain it... as noted by another poster, X lost that game big— and then Wayne went on to lose big to an Ig team that X demolished that year.
I didn’t read his comment that way at all— he said nothing negative about “SHS”—if anything, it was more a comment on the difficulty of anyone having a big game against X—X usually has one of the best defenses in the state— and X has managed to shut down a LOT of good players (especially running the ball)— he was (indirectly) complimenting X’s defense (and coaching) not slamming SHS.
I am a neutral party. Easily two of the top coaches and their two top teams. The biggest advantage I would say goes to X and it’s schedule.
Then we will have PawPaw join shortly about who is a championship team
Yes, they always play a meat grinder schedule. But as we saw in 1999, that doesn't necessarily mean anything. SHS reminds me of Lima in 1996 who was the big underdog in the state tournament. After they beat Elder, they dethroned Ignatius who everyone said they had no chance against. I really think SHS is having that type of year, especially with the statement the defense made against Liberty.
What's wrong with that? That's what we're here for. Remember, SHS keeps proving me right, right??
And then the rest of you will follow and get in on it bc you enjoy the trash talk just as much!
No!!!!!!! When SHS wins State, they'll make another movie called "WILDCATS!"
Typical silly-arse comment. I made no prediction on X/Lakota West, or X/Elder, or X/Moeller, or X/Walnut Hills— and I will make no prediction on this one.
Also, Springfield-Hamilton was one of the biggest rivalries in the State. I would really like to see SHS schedule regular season games with the GCL, GMC, McKinley and maybe even Ignatius. A few years back, Ignatius scheduled Northmont who lost but competed well.
Because as good as they are and talented, they haven’t been playing that well. They have beaten a lot of mediocre teams but not a large margin. I honestly thought Northmont was the better team. And OL were dismantling teams and best a heck of a Coffman team. They also had one common opponent in Fairmont. OL won 35-7 while Springfield won 28-21.
But now what do you think with the Cats surging? Liberty and Coffman are supposed to be better than Northmont.
