maybe because your dumb crusade to downgrade schools who are in classification of 1a is the reason??   I don't know, maybe just that or your ideals of getting ride of an entire classification of football is beyond comprehension. 

I would pay top dollar for you to go up to Coach Larry "Bud" Wright and tell him his 400 plus wins and 9 state championships are pointless.   

And make sure you wear a helmet @Rodney so we all can watch Bud grab the fask mask and "lower you to his level".  LOL

Can you play your youth games on Sunday?

There are 7 different leagues that come together to form a "Conference"... Would be difficult to get all of them to buy in on Sundays. 

As a youth board member and trying to schedule referees, the movement of JV games to Saturday have hurt our ability to get licensed IHSAA officials for the youth games.  I typically have a handful that I get to work games and then I may have 1 (out of a 3 man crew) that isn't licensed.

Nice that the Western Boone varsity won't have to dress for this one. Perfect time to heal some injuries.

 

It's homecoming... and I am sure Coach Pelley and his staff are going to prepare for this game like they do every other game...

Friday's results and this week's match ups... Lebanon/Tri-West is probably the best game of the week.

in 2014, Our QB was an All State Level Corner Back.   We had other guys who were good to also play DB, but the drop off from QB to next guy was too great to risk playing him full time.  He played in exactly 4 games at DB that year.  West Lafayette, LCC times 2 and Mater Dei.    

Has Wright played Defense all year or just last week against a good Tri West squad?   Webo, could be just mixing him in on a need basis depending from week to week

As you called out, I think the receiving game is the biggest change I have seen for Webo to this point.  Wright had a number of options last year, Hole is the go-to guy this season.  Thankfully Wright can scramble with the best of them when he runs out of time in the pocket.  Looking at the stats, Webo has twice as many yards on the ground as compared to passing.  The offense in a nutshell appears to be the Wright/Wethington/Hole show.  It will be interesting to see how this plays out if things remain the same come tournament time.  

Another big change is seeing Wright on defense.  I knew that two platooning was unique to the team last year but I did not anticipate seeing Wright on the other side of the ball.  Obviously smaller programs will rely on their best athletes when needed, I just hope he stays healthy.  

I seriously doubt Wright plays D all the time, I foresee something similar to what @Coach Nowlin described... He did sparingly against Western, he did the whole game against TW.  He was locked up 1:1 with Hendershot which is TW's biggest weapon.  I doubt he plays D this week, he probably won't have to against Frankfort or Southmont.  He may against Danville & Lebanon.  Who knows though.. 

I also wouldn't sleep on Garrity as a target.  He doesn't have the speed that Benson did, but he is a big target.

Friday's results and Friday's lineup

#22 for Western was a very good athlete.   It was good for our guys to see them have success in pass game in week 2, helped them stay focused this past week on their Trip Flood package Western runs and of course the play action.   Western and RCHS both run a version of the Gun Single Wing, with slight variations of it respectfully.   We did a great job on the pass against them, held Western to 4-16 for 28 yards.  They had a couple of 10 yard outs they dropped, but we were right in position on their vertical games.  

Webo QB still is the TRUTH,  just saying 

He's a better kid! 

Week 3 results and a look ahead to Friday!  Big one between Webo & TW!

WOW:   just got done watching (just watching, breakdown starts tomorrow)   of the Webo Western game.  Mercy.   what a game.   Western big 4th quarter, Soph QB made throws when it counted for panthers.   Webo Offense is wicked good.  

 

 

The Soph QB has a cannon... Though he threw the ball up 3-4 times and a Western Kid seemed to somehow always come down with it for a huge gain or a TD.  I am sure the coaching staff has reviewed the film and adjustments will be made.  It was good to play against a bigger school and someone unfamiliar it should help Webo prep for Conference as well as the playoffs. 

Was a tough loss, but an opportunity to get better and see how these kids respond to a Loss.  This week starts Conference play!

So is Western Boone moving their game to Sheridan?  Seems as if it is, at a minimum, possible.

Conference predictions?

1.  Webo

8T.  Danville

8T.  Tri-West

8T.  Southmont

8T.  Lebanon

8T.  North Montgomery

8T.  Frankfort

8T.  Crawfordsville

Webo outscores opponents 6259 to 14.  2019 Conference and State champ t-shirts are already on sale.  

You sandbagging, bro?  LOL

Webo should be pretty solid, lost a lot in the receiving corp, yet I think the younger kids are starting to put it together with Wright. 

TW will be good with Robertson & Hendershot back. 

Lebanon has the young Harker slinging it...

And we don't make shirts until it happens... :)

Western Boone--64

Anyone have an impactful player move in this season. I know that is the new trend in high school sports. 

Didn't Danville have another QB move in?

How's the field looking?

They had some issues at one end, it has been resolved... No turf being laid as of last Thursday.  Hopefully in the next couple of days they start laying it. Last I heard they were going to have 2 crews out to lay it in hopes of cutting the time down.

The official start of the season today...

New Coach in CVille, Interim HC  in Lizton... Webo coming off of the best season is school history... I hear Danville has a new QB that moved in from Avon?  Lebanon has a stud at QB with the younger Harker. 

So... thoughts on the season?  18 days until Week 1!
