Recommended Posts

White House Heritage will be very strong this year. They lost four important seniors last year but should have plenty of offensive firepower back. I just want to get CPA away from their itty bitty home (football) field. Its a joke how small the field is. You would figure that they have enough money to bult a proper soccer pitch, but then again a small field works to their advantage. Go Patriots!

If I recall correctly, CPA won state at the stadium field at Siegel... A "large" field... Great teams can play on big fields, small fields, wet fields, dry fields, the south lawn of the White House (which would be a heck of a name for your field... You're welcome) or a cow pasture. CPA is a GREAT team. The middle school team had a GREAT season. The pipeline is strong for the Lions. CPA and then everyone else this year, and as BigG gets the program going, there's nothing that anyone else will be able to do. 6 state titles in 7 years with a runner up finish after the 5th straight is what he's done previously... You can't teach the gift that he has. CPA Lions - 2015 Champs

Hey Slaughter, we get it, you think CPA is “GREAT†and TSSAA might as well go ahead and give them the trophy. However, I am pretty sure there are a lot of people that would like to discuss the other A-AA teams as the season progresses. So maybe you should start a different thread to talk about how AWESOME CPA is, and then the teams they beat can come on that thread and agree with you.

 

Also, anybody that follows A-AA soccer is well aware of BigG's tremendous success as a soccer coach, so you can give that a rest as well.

 

The Irish will go ahead and show up and play CPA tomorrow anyway (assuming there is a field to play on). Quite frankly ND is not ready for primetime, as they are still trying to figure out where to stick everybody to be the most effective. It is going to take a while, but I think they will get there before they play the games that really matter. Maybe, if they try really hard, they can even work their way up to being worthy to play CPA in the State tournament.

Seriously? I made 2 posts about CPA... Could you possibly be anymore sensitive?

Come on now, you know that wasn't his intent.  He is just proud of the program that has developed here.  He was not belittling anyone.  Let fans support their schools.  

 

Notre Dame also has a proud soccer tradition and there are many CoachT ND friends here on the boards, as well.  All teams ebb and flow from year to year.  I have full confidence that ND will rise to the challenge.

 

I can tell you that we are preparing to play a difficult match tomorrow, for sure.  I'm just glad that coach Blair and Baylor have allowed the tournament to go on.  

 

There is a lot of soccer yet to be played.

I thought slaughter made it very clear with his first post that he thought CPA was the best team in the State.  Which is fine since the topic is A-AA rankings.

 

I have no idea what the "intent" of his second post was, but to me it came off as an over-the-top rebuke of another poster that brought nothing new to the discussion.  Especially considering most teams are only one game into the season.

 

It reminded me of being on a football message board, where so many fans get on there to talk smack about how nobody can hang with their team, and there is very little objective discussion about the games.  I would just rather not see the soccer boards become that.

a small field is a disadvantage to the CPA team.

A small field Should be an advantage to the ND team. Through no fault of their own, they're landlocked and play on a postage stamp sized field. But by HS, all of everyone's players should have Big Field experience.

 

Thanks to Baylor for still hosting this weekend! They killed my SM Eagles last night scoring early and often and despite all the weather, their big field was in great shape. Baylor has a strong team that's 15 deep. Hard to judge in such an ####-whupping like we took last night, but they'll be a DII force.

I'd rather the soccer boards become something rather than nothing. Past few years there has been nothing to talk about on here. Bring on some trash talk that's right up my ally.  :popcorneater:

Especially because I have beaten you every year on the tournament challenge.

CPA played a young ND tonight, anyone know result?

CPA won 1-0.  It was a good game.  Possession was probably 70-30 in CPA's favor, and CPA had quite a few shots go wide or high, but I don't remember the ND keeper having to make any saves (but I could easily be wrong on that).  ND had limited chances to score and sacrificed possession for the long ball a little too often, especially late in the game.

 

It was one of those games that could have ended up being a 4-0 CPA win if shots were just a few feet to the left or right, or it could have also ended up 0-0, because the one goal wasn't anything special, and probably could have been prevented.   The ND team probably feels pretty good about the game, because they played sooooo much better than they did against Bearden, and progress is pretty darn important right now.

Very fair assessment.  Well stated.

 

Your number 17 is one talented player.  He was a joy to watch.

    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through. 
    • McKenzie had no trouble with Huntingdon.  
    • Has BA landed any cornfed cowboys to block up front?
    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
