Gary Danielson and Beth Mowin fall in love, ride off into the sunset together and are never heard from today.

Everybody wins .

Only two states have increased participation in tackle football. Three are about the same. Everywhere else it has decreased.

Fewer white and black males are participating. Hispanic participation rates have increased.

This article analyzes who is playing, who isn’t by race, geography, age, income and political affiliation.

Touch football participation is going up bigly, especially in wealthy areas. The who, what, and why…..

RECORDS
-------
KICKAPOO (8-1, 0-0 OZARKS)
CARTHAGE (3-6, 3-5 NFHS, 1-0 COC)

Willow was leading at 20 at one point in the 4Q, after being down 14 pts in the opening Quarter.

Willow plays the winner of Spokane/Crane


Ash Grove lost by 40+ to Central and I believe Nicholson only had 4 pts in the first half for AG. Don’t know what he ended up with.

Drink is starting to clean up.

I love this NIL stuff!

The Pirates win it on FTs with a 9-1 foul differential in the 4Q

Nicholson had somewhere around 60. If it wasn’t for that kid, AG would be awful.

Willow with 4 scorers in double figures.

Pirates will likely play 1 seed Central tomorrow in the 2nd round of the blue & gold.

Willow will likely face Skyline

The final from the Mtn Grove tournament.

Willow had mail JV in the last quarter and a half.

Jones led all scorers with 21 for the Bears.

Willow will likely play Liberty tomorrow

Anyone got stream info for tournaments this week? Even if it cost to watch I’d be interested.

Anyone have stream info for tournaments this week? Even if you have to pay I’d be interested

Two of these are truths and one is a lie
1. Coach Minnick from Kearney will be named the new HC of Jewell by Friday.
2. Coach Ambroson from Smithville will be named the new HC of Jewell by Friday.
3. Coach Ambroson is leaving Smithville because of the resurrection of Kearney Football.

Who the heck is he you ask

Another Mo Special
late 30's with a ERA just under 5

Rants
1. If I heard one more thing about blowouts and changing up the playoff system because of blowouts you lost your mind. we have Blowouts from week 1 of the season to the Championship games every single season.

2. No more complaining about seating capacity at any high school field. After attending the Lutheran North game the Lutheran North school parking people, Vendors, and fans had the best hospitality at any high school football game i ever attended and North County, West Plains and Kearney comes next to the best hospitality i been too.

3. Kick Private Schools out for good after what CBC did Tonight. Unclassy and uncalled for. Private schools always complains and whined about anything to get there way sometimes!!!

Thoughs
1. Class 4 was weak this year and honestly Class 4 been weak except for Smithville and Kearney since Webb City and others left for Class 5.

2. Private School Success factor is kinda working out. Yes, We still have private schools in the playoffs but it has show in the past couple years if u move up a private school 1 or 2 classes it’s hard for them to Win a State Championship. 3 weeks ago we went from possibly 4 Private schools champions to only 1 State Champion and that was Ritter.

3. We went from having a so ridiculous last second touchdowns and field goals, to forfeits during the season, to a track meet game between Hannibal & Lutheran North , and to a Team that call it quit before the game was over…

My Wants for 2024 Season And Beyond

1. Go back to 5 Classes and 1 Private School Class, and bring in the Illionis/College football playoff system. Keep the state Championships on the first weekend in December

2. Make the Cut off for 8-man for 130 or under.

3. Bring a college bowl games type of series for the week before thanksgiving for the teams who didn’t make the playoffs at neutral sites, and the 28 teams who didn’t make it to the semifinals play at neutral sites on thanksgiving weekend for their bowl games. Only teams that won’t play on this bowl weekend is Webster groves and Kirkwood since they have the turkey day game. Dumb idea I know lol!!!

I have always wonder what is the "rules" in deciding the rotation of the players? Like, how do the coach decide which player got to be MB1 and MB2, OH1 and OH2 and so on. How do they put all of this together?

Like for instance, during VNL match of JAPAN vs SERBIA, Lisinac was MB2; when he is usually MB1 (I am referring to the rotation of serve, Lisinac is the 2nd MB to serve). What makes this change?

And how do the coach put the main attacking MB and OH Sony XM-280GTX Marketing Specifications, Connections & Dimensions online (alongside the OPP) and spread them on court in between the MB2 and OH2.

What is the criteria to be the 1st and 2nd tho?

I am sorry I ave lots to ask. Hopefully y'all can chime in so everyone can have better understanding of the game. Thanks!

Battle of state ranked teams, sorry just posting this was on Thursday night. Unofficially, Sparta's Lafferty had 30, Mayes, and Loveland had 5 each (next highest scorers). Higginsville was paced by Button with 12, George and Merritt with 11. Huskers are now 9 and 1, Sparta 8 and 1. Huskers are idle until 2024. Merry Christmas and Happy New Years everyone

Not surprised who it is.

23 point game at half. SS only scored 2 in 2nd on last second shot.

Now that we have the districts released, who is the favorites in each class?

Never really thought about it, but was a little surprised.... guess I thought there would be a few more with turf...

Appeal so it pretty much will get hung up in the courts forever.

Listened to a retired Judge (I think) being interviewed on PBS about the election interference case. He said that when Trump called Georgia State officials and told them that he won the election and they needed to find the 14,000 votes that Trump was excercising his rights under the first amendment to "petition the government for a redress of grievances"

After a rough week or two, finally a good day.. Sooners sign the #7 class after a top 5 Class a year ago....
