York vs. Gibbs

When I seen the schedule 2 years ago this game baffled me.  It made no sense to play.  At this point in the year staying healthy is the main concern why play up 2 or 3 classes.  There had to be a team with similar enrollment to play. The last head coach was not smart in scheduling.  Just my opinion.

Agree 100%. York's schedule has been rough. One of the toughest AA schedules I've seen. Is Stover (spelling?) back yet?

It happens all the time. 1A plays 3A & 4A. 3A playing 5A there has been several of those games this year. There’s a good one tonight with a 1A playing a good 4A team and most are picking the 1A to win.

I know it happens all the time but I don’t feel it is a wise move.  I think it makes more sense to play compatible games with schools comparable.  You will see a smaller school catch a big school over looking or in a down year and you may get a win but in my opinion it makes no sense.

I do believe you spelled it correctly and I am not close enough to the team to know if he is back.  I know they were hoping he’d be back by week 10.  Just from the talk 2 weeks ago at wartburg

Livingston is 4A. Did you have an issue with that one?  Gibbs is not near the top of that class.   Stone Memorial is much better than Gibbs,  Gibbs probably don't make the playoffs.  What will be an excuse when Clay County a 1A team beats York next week?  Out of region games should make you better.  Would you rather play Red Boiling?

York will play Livingston if it’s the only out of conference game they can schedule you know that.  As far as playing clay county They are rolling just like last year when they beat York  just as stone did.  You whine about looking at teaM size when it’s classification but think it’s okay to play up classes.  Pick your side and stay on it.  I don’t want York picking cupcakes to play but I don’t see playing games out of region 2 hrs away with a much larger school.

I say Gibbs was picked up because that was probably the only game they could get or they had Alcoa, Powell, Oakland to choose from.

 

Kingston played Campbell County this go around because coach Pankey said it was either play them or it was Powell and another powerhouse school I can't remember who it was

Gibbs plays in a much harder region than Stone Memorial. Not really a fair comparison. And they are going to make the playoffs if things go as planned

I have no issue with having a cupcake on the schedule, but you need to play a non region schedule that prepares you to make a deep run in the playoffs.  That's what I'm saying.  region 2 2A is not a very good region and for that matter neither is 1A other than Hampton and since there is only 5 teams in region 2 you need some competition outside of the region.  This statement has nothing to do with classification if that is what you were referring to.

    • There's going to be more fallout from this.  It's not over.   A criminal investigation is also underway.  Additional school counselors have been fired.   As far as coach flip flops is concerned,  a lot of people knew he was flirting with disaster. He was recruiting failed athletes from other schools. Grades and discipline issues that got otherwise good athletes kicked off other area teams were playing at CHS. Grades, addresses or transfer rules be dam ed. It was just a matter of time.  It's a culture issue at the school. I've heard an assistant coach and teacher for another sports team was let go for not breaking up a fight on campus between 2 girls.  Supposedly he's only there because of coach flip flops, they're close.  That guy's kid, who's a great athlete in the school,  will probably transfer out to.  There's just so many layers to this .   I'm not sure the director of all Anderson county schools doesn't get bit by this somehow. He's the one who wanted, pushed for the principal at Clinton in the first place.  He initially denied anything had been uncovered when a local station broke the story.  He had to back track his statements.   It's ugly in Clinton right now folks.   Add in the fact that there's such a huge rivalry with ACHS across the river,  it makes it bitter for clinton fans if they say anything.  Especially given the dominance that ACHS has had over Clinton for 20+ years in  almost everything.  
    • Congratulations to y'all. I have been texting some Huntingdon friends. What a great accomplishment. Proud of y'all. Keep battling. 
    • I remember it happening, but I don't remember the details. I usually have headphones on so I don't hear the PA anyway. But it seems like a guy I know was doing it at one point, but he either didn't start it or didn't finish. I don't remember which.
    • Kreuziger from Huntingdon has been fantastic on the mound!  I think if the Fillies can score a couple of runs tomorrow it may be all they need to capture their first ever state championship in Softball.  Great day to be a Huntingdon fan!  Baseball team has won 17 in a row and plays for State Championship tomorrow also!
