There has been quite a bit of talk, and with all this talk be better beat Mt. Vernon Friday night by 2 or 3 scores. It is not typically our thing to come out of the gate running off at the mouth this much. If we have the rear end to back it up, well, great....if not, just stop. It seems every media video/article has been, as you say, the same consistent message. I was up close and personal for the scrimmage against Jasper Friday night, and I liked the way we looked (with a couple weaknesses), but the truth has yet to be seen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I follow. I see the usual high hopes for the season, as with every pre-season article that I can remember with pretty much every team. Obviously, these articles mean nothing and the proof will be shown on the field. What is the sticking point?

Just make sure the film is clear for when you’re on defense lol. Nicot Burnett has been improving. Feel like he should already be a senior but he’s only a junior. my GS bias aside….I think nicot has to be a good shot at winning conference mvp this year….but…that’s usually an award for the best player on the best team…and mt Vernon certainly has to prove they are the best team first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record I wasn't saying there was anything wrong with the messaging at all...just saying it has been very consistent in the media. All that typically means is that the staff has done a good job setting expectations with the kids. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memorial and Mater Dei each only got 1 from Central. Reitz has them from Central and 1-2 others from what I hear. Bottom line is kids should be able to go wherever they want. 2 hours ago, HHPatriots said: I'm just going to go ahead and say it out loud in front of everybody.

I was up close and personal for the scrimmage against Jasper Friday night, and I liked the way we looked (with a couple weaknesses), but the truth has yet to be seen. It does seem to be a consistent theme. I always thought it was better to under promise and over deliver. It does seem to shift the pressure to HH a bit. In Channel 44 preview, and in the Evansville Courier preview, they specifically mentioned Mt. Vernon twice. I know the Mt. Vernon kids are taking this as a snub. With that being said, that is what happens when one program has been good for many years, and the other has not. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter what happened 10 years ago, or the last two years with MV winning. It matters who is the better team this year. I did think we looked good in the scrimmage against Tell City. However, Tell City ain't HH. Speaking with the kids and coaches, there was some concern about practice not being consistent. With this team being so young, think you could see some flashes of brilliance, and some inconsistent play as well, which is most high school teams. It always helps to have a kid like Nicot Burnett at QB. Whatever happens on Friday, the MV program is in good shape for a few years to come. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is quite a bit of history of between us and Jasper....there aren't too many teams that have the dislike for each other than we do. We both hated that we had to quit playing. The series between us is 11-10 (HH has one game on them), so they may be salty about that. They look like they normally do. Impressively big, disciplined. Talk funny.

It puts the pressure on HH for a "must win" game. We all know if you are going to win the PAC you can NOT have a single conference loss. All this puts a chip on the shoulder of MV. Looking forward to Friday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is always nice to add an elite player to a good group. Jed stole the show at times but we ended up having 3 freshmen start varsity for us last year and will have several from that class step up this year and play major roles as sophomores. Its a talented group that works hard, will prove to be much more than a one man show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
