Exactly...you can see how the remaining population evolves to one of a higher standard.

We tried the staff/managers washing stuff for a year or two. We are back to kids washing uniforms at home.

I gotta go!

More than likely better than the Poverty Patriots ventured against the greatest 3A show on turf. You don't want to get in a ground and pound battle in the mud. This years Patriots best play is no play.

I'm afraid to say who, it is said that if you say his name three times in a chat forum he will magically appear!

I saw this as well. There is no way in H311 that anyone called anyone with regard to a playing surface. The jungle is like home to these GS kids who have never lost a game there. In fact...in a recent poll...the GS kids voted "The Woods" as their 2nd favorite place to play!!

If this fine forum ever devolves to the level of the fakebook page created by the Merryville moron.....I will walk away. LOL I've been super busy and haven't had time to respond to some of the stuff here. It's all good and thoughtfully written. I have great respect for all of my P/P brothers here, although I made this argument long before Memorial peaked (although hadn't coined the catchy catch phrase yet)...probably started around 2013 and 2015...what cold winters those were. But come on fellas, P/Ps of various types have dominated in every state in the union forcing every state in the union to search for equitable solutions around why enrollment alone doesn't work. The whole world can't be wrong that solutions are needed. So some P/Ps are better at some sports than others. Publics and Privates aren't different in that regard because: All of the things it takes to make a program great, tradition, strong youth programs, strong feeder programs, great staff, great admin, community support...exist on both sides of the coin. It would be rare for either a public or private to have all of these factors across every sport, boy and girl. The issue is, and will always be, a higher percentage of quality hard working student athletes roaming the halls. A P/P is more likely to attract these type of students just by the nature of getting what one pays for, and a desire for those parents who chose to make that sacrifice to pair their children with like minded families (which is a noble endeavor). If we are going to go to the trouble of having a class system, lets align them in a way that actually makes sense....not in a way that ends up looking like some are purchasing an advantage in athletics. Enrollment alone just isn't fair and that is recognized nation wide.

Hey hey now...let's not get ahead of ourselves.

They do things the right way and are a true 3A peer....as it should be. They fight the same battles we fight. I respect that.

I respect all of that....just don't expect folks to not call out the advantage of enrollment disparity. An advantage should not be available for purchase.

You have been to a lot of coin flip games lately. Just leave your coin at home....lol.

The good old days when folks accepted a class system that really isn't a class system. Always comes off great at my fortune 500 company....let's just do it the way we always have...leadership loves that.

Should be the study case of what to fix with the success factor.

One word summation: “Luck”lol

I’m glad someone read my ramblings. I have managed to tick off all my P&P buddies this year lol. We are healthy enough to not have any excuses.

Still looking!

Amen...at least throw those games in for the strength of schedule piece of the calculations.

I know who my money is on!

Gibson Southern 11-2 at Heritage Hills 12-1 3A South Semi-State This is the 50th meeting between Heritage Hills and Gibson Southern and the Patriots lead the series 33-17. The Patriots also faced the three teams that consolidated into Gibson Southern in the 1972 and 1973 seasons and went 0-2 VS. Jack Jewell's Fort Branch Twigs, 1-1 VS. Haubstadt, and 2-0 VS. Owensville. In the first season of Patriot football, the Patriots went 9-1 and their only loss was a 15-12 defeat by Jewell-coached Fort Branch Twigs. The Jack Jewell lead Titans won the first 3 meetings in the series beating Roger Snow’s Patriots in 1974, 75, and 76, the Patriots didn’t beat them for the first time until 1977, the same year Bob Ashworth became the Patriot's head coach. That same season was also Hall of Famer Bob Clayton's only season as Offensive Coordinator at Heritage Hills the following season Ashworth moved on to Evansville Reitz and Clayton took over the Heritage Hills program. The Titans have won 13 of the last 19 meetings starting with a Coach Rick Stefanich win in 2010 that snapped the Patriots streak of 21 straight wins over the Titans. Heritage Hills and Gibson Southern have played 5 overtime games in the series including a 7-0 five overtime affair in 1982. In the Coach Nick Hart and Coach Todd Wilkerson era, Nick Hart's Titans lead the series 12-5. This is the Titan's 5th Semi-State, all under Nick Hart. I believe this is the 11th Semi-State for Heritage Hills.
