  1. Come on, who you kidding??? A Memorial Mom isnt doing laundry.....the maid is!!!
  2. Field Goal Attempt. Whistle blown immediately when ball was blocked. Ball still on ground behind line of scrimmage. Ov picks up and returns but GS players had stopped and were walking off field. Whistle was clear And loud. Possibly sounded like more than one whistle. Should have been GS ball, replay down. I almost feel like calls definitely switched to being mostly against GS after that. Alot of makeup calls
  3. It was blown before recovered. I was thinking an inadvertent whistle you had to replay the down. OV had some penalties go against them but not as many as GS. I think most were self inflicted for both teams. A few were questionable.
  4. Couldnt happen.....the Universe would explode....both are too good!!!!
  5. Just to let you know, GS 4th grade beat Linton 27 to 0 ....and 6th beat Linton 41-6....this past weekend.
  6. Farouk You!@!.....LOL Actually both are pretty damn good. Always get the Farouk pizza from bobes. I have no idea why it is called that.....just like i dont know what an Alice is.
  7. Really hope the GS frehmen find a game.
  8. Possibly, but the games are only 7 qtrs to begin with. The Coach has done it both home and away and has done at both 7th and 8th grade levels in the past. Maybe he thinks someone will run up 90+points on him like HH did to pile central. But in all seriousness, i dont know why he has over the years. At the lower levels I enjoy watching kids get as many reps as possible
  9. Correct. With a back up QB on varsity and a kid who had never played QB at JV. Was great that we didn't cancel anything that week with injuries and kids playing up. Those games are so important for development. Also respect for Southridge for never have asked for an early running clock. I believe freshman are still looking for a game Thursday
  10. Just adding to the conversation on a discussion board. Glad HH JV is a bright spot. Should be some exciting games between HH and GS in the future. I am curious as to why your middle school coach often ask for a running clock earlier than the 35 point spread as stated in the rules. He has done this multiple times over the past several years.
  11. GS swept your 7th and 8th grade tonight. HH canceled freshman game against GS undefeated freshman. GS 7th won 38 to 8 with an early running clock wich was requested by HH coach... GS 8th grade won 16 to 8.
  12. Is there any Princeton faithful left on this site? I know so far the season has been tough, but is there hope for the future? New coach and all, is there any spark in the feeder program for a class to turn things around.....or has the ship sunk...or burned i should say
  13. Yes we went down on a Saturday and played 7th grade only. (And lost)
  14. Not sure where to post this, but GS is looking for a 7th grade game for this Thursday. Direct Message me if you know a team available.
  15. Curious to know how many total Freshmen HH has. I was surprised to hear they canceled the remainder of their season, including their game with GS Freshmen.
  16. I imagine the 2 minute drill in practice consist of the offense watching the qb run gassers.
  17. Using Bobref's post on good mechanics....tonights crew didnt score well. particular order of priority or frequency: 1. Do the wing officials “square off” their forward progress spots? Proper technique, other than in goal line situations, is to trail the play up the sideline to the forward progress spot, and then move in perpendicular to the sideline. If that wing official’s route to the spot looks like a banana, that’s a sign of lack of attention to detail that doesn’t bode well for other calls. 2. Does the crew make timeouts look like a local officials’ association meeting? Everyone on the crew has a specific job to do during a dead ball interval. That is not the right time for the crew to all get together and chew the fat. 3. Is the sideline clean? IHSAA officials are under a very clear mandate to properly manage the sidelines. This means no coaches on the field itself at any time, except during charged or injury timeouts, and no one in the 6 ft. “restricted area” when the ball is alive. All coaches are fully aware of this. If the crew is lax in its enforcement of this directive, it’ll likely be lax in other areas as well. 4. Is the goal line covered? Goal line officiating is probably the greatest challenge for a 5-person crew. There is a complex set of mechanics associated with goal line officiating, but they all boil down to one thing: having someone on the goal line in a position to rule on a TD. It’s not easy, and it’s not always possible. But if a kid scores on an off tackle run from the 4 yd. line, and the wing official signaling the TD is at the 2, that’s a real problem. 5. Watch the two officials under the crossbar on a scoring kick (try or field goal). Are they talking to one another before the snap (they are supposed to be identifying eligible receivers and communicating that to one another)? Do they have to look at one another before signaling the kick? They shouldn’t. If the kick threatens an upright, and is above the top of the goalposts, does only the official on that side signal the kick? When both officials signal, do they do it in unison? Attention to details like these spills over into other areas of officiating. 6. Proper use of the beanbag is another such detail. Does the back judge use a beanbag to mark the spot where every punt ends, even if there’s a fair catch, or the ball is downed by the kickers? When the ball is fumbled, do the officials mark the spot of the fumble with a beanbag? Do they refrain from using the bag for marking the spot of a fumble behind the LOS? If a kick was “first touched,” did they mark that spot? 7. What happens during penalty enforcements? All 5 crew members have specific duties during the administration of penalties. Are all the officials moving with purpose? Or is administration left to the Referee and Umpire, while the other 3 crew members just sort of wander around? 8. Does the crew hustle? I see a lot of walking around some Friday nights. That sort of body language can be interpreted as lack of engagement, which can be fatal to your credibility. Good officials avoid it like the plague. 9. How many whistles blow at the end of the play? On most plays, two are plenty. One is better. Too many whistles means too many officials watching the ball … and not paying attention to other responsibilities. 10. How does the crew handle the ball? Proficient crews use well-established ball handling procedures designed to get the ball back in play as efficiently as possible. It’s done with a minimum of delay, and the ball doesn’t spend any time on the ground. Realistically, you cannot evaluate the crew’s performance in many areas without formal training and a better vantage point. But these 10 things to watch for will give you a pretty good idea of what you’re dealing with as a crew.
  18. The PA Announcer must be the teacher from the old Charlie Brown cartoons.
  19. In three years, Hopefully GS is standing in that path....sectional 32 will be exciting.
  20. I would bet more than a few were there . The administration honored our youth league, TYFL, at halftime. I bet 55 or more players listed on the current roster walked the sideline at halftime that day as youngsters.
  21. Is there any Princeton fans on here anymore? Are there any Princeton fans in general?
  22. What are some good local eating spots in New Albany? Preferably not the normal chain restaurants.
  23. Would love to know the answer on this as well.
  24. Understandable....GS hasn't quite had the media coverage Triwest has received this year...alot going on at Tri West
  25. If there is a personal foul on team B after team a fails PAT. Is it first and goal from the twenty five or is it first and ten from the twenty five?
