    The kabosh has officially been put on this one.  

    According to a person whose signature would have to be on a contract to play such a game, no game has been proposed nor will it be.  It's not going to happen, and it's not because of "competitive" reasons.  

    A couple of points:

    1.  If Powell were "ducking" good opponents, would they have accepted a game with the then two time defending state champion Central Bobcats last fall on 4 days notice?  Would they have agreed to go to Maryville in week 2 of the 2021 season?  

    2.  As for a potential "$17K gate", that's just not realistic.  Catholic doesn't have the following fan base to help generate their share that large a crowd, especially playing a game that's on television on a Thursday night.  Catholic doesn't have the alumni base or numbers of students/parents to support it, and Thursday night crowds just aren't that big, no matter who has played in those games.  TV does cut in to gate in a big way on Thursdays.  

    Reasonable and rational thought, not to mention facts from one of the primary players, pretty much proves this as nothing but unfounded rumor.  

    Time to move on to the next anti Powell conspiracy.  

    In talking to some people today...there has been push to get this game on TV. The offer is there to my understanding.  

    That Powell/Central game last year everyone knew Central was not the same team that won Two Titles in a row. I am a Powell guy and thought we would smoke CHS this past season. 

    I hope this game happens as I will be in the stands on the 40 yard line about 11 rows up always!!! 

    Go Panthers!!!! Come on Powell...let's get this thing poppin'!
