Kids who live in Maumelle go to public Maumelle High instead of private CAC. The two schools are about 5 miles apart at most. Not a huge deal honestly.
Also, PA and LRCA are moving up from 6A to 7A Central this year.
PA has an enrollment of 1391 kids pre-K to 12th grade. 303 in grades 9-12.
That will teach those pesky private school kids not to be successful in years when most of them were in junior high or elementary school. They will not be the same team later in the year after injuries at that level. Not enough depth.
I thought 6A was a pretty good competitive fit for PA. 7A will not be, in my opinion.

Although the PA Varsity did beat Jonesboro 41-0 in three quarters in a benefit scrimmage last week, the JV played the fourth.
Sheridan leads White Hall 44-13 heading into the 4th. This is not normal for us. So far so good to start the Kevin Kelly era.

PA leading West Monroe 24-20 in the second quarter.
The W Monroe RB Myles is legit.
The two teams have 19 state championships between them. W Monroe claims 2 national championships.
Correction, now 27-24 West Monroe.

Per GeauxPreps, West Monroe is #2 in Louisiana Division 1 (their equivalent of AAAAAAA but with a whole lot more teams). If this is a normal WM team they're probably better, or at least more talented, than anyone in Arkansas.
This is a huge win.

He wasn't on the whole game he didn't even complete 50 percent of his passes. He gets bailed out having insane athletes to throw to. You take Ball and Wrightner away and he'd really look bad.
Fayetteville should've been up 42-17 at half. Odom threw three touchdowns on fourth down in the first quarter lol. They gave up a safety on a bad snap on a punt and surrendered a field goal after getting up 28-7, then dropped a pick six and still scored another TD before half.
Casey definitely coached not to lose instead of win in the second half though.
Potter overthrew two touchdowns innthe first half. One with no one within ten yards of rhe receiver. Should have had at least 28 in that first half.

He's average at best. Not anywhere close to the QB's they've had in the past.
Fayetteville got pressure on potter in the first half but they did not in the 2nd and did not seem as aggressive with the pressure which bothered Potter
The ball kid is unreal, wow. Once they put him at RB after Johnson got dinged the game changed.
Texas let battles score that last touchdown which gave them the ball back, as noted, he should have fallen down instead of scoring, kudos to their staff for realizing it was the only way to get the ball back. Clock management. 2 first downs end the game.
Still, one hell of a game and a great atmosphere for high school football.

Yeah, I don't know, spotting someone 21 points and then beating them is pretty convincing. I know it hurts. It goes down better if you just accept it.
And it is fucking criminal that Arkansas is letting Tradarian Ball go to Oregon. That kid should be all hog. He has been the best player on the field in every game since he started as a freshman.

It's gotten pretty depressing over there. I am still surprised they are 7A. Their enrollment has cratered after school choice was made law. Many of their kids have decided to go to RHS which is currently busting at the seams with students. The district is at a loss for how to get students to go back to Heritage. They have hired some decent coaches but nothing seems to work.

Texarkana kids are hit or miss on coming to Arkansas. LaMichael James went to Oregon, so did Tra Carson, then ended up at A&M. Most of Texas High's best athletes over the years went to Texas (Nathan Vasher, Nate Jones, etc.) Mallett grew up here so that's why he wanted to be a Hog. Landon Jackson went to LSU first, his brother is going to Texas.

I'm pretty sure T. Ball is from Ashdown originally. And that's thr point, it shouldn't be hit or miss. Texarkana is a Razorback town. GET THOSE FUCKING KIDS!

They are for sure going 10-0 heading into playoffs, and they already eviscerated Warren at a neutral site. I don't see anyone in 4A touching them this year. There isn't a Pulaski Academy/Shiloh/Harding Academy waiting in the wings. Maybe Mills but I don't think Mills is good enough to beat them, certainly not at Elkins or a neutral site.

Lost a lot from last year AND the starting QB has not played a down this year. Got a knee in practice before the first game and had surgery and is done for the year, which sucks for him because he's a senior and a good kid. Next QB up is a junior.

This is the worst the program has been since the early 2000s with Greg Burl.
It is hard to overstate just how bad the Football program at Rogers Heritage is. Here is the record since the school began:

09 9-3 5-2
10 4-7 2-4
11 1-9 0-7
12 7-4 4-3

19 0-10 0-7
20 1-10 0-7
21 0-10 0-7
22 3-7 1-6
23 1-9 0-7
They are 40-128 overall and 19-91 in conference games.
They haven't won a game this year and won't. Feel bad for the kids and coaches. Not sure what you do for this.

Gentry has a good QB that can run an offense but he's small. Got beat up and finally knocked out just after start of third.

Elkins (9-0) and Southlake (10-0) should both cap off undefeated seasons as both have final games against really crappy teams and go into the playoffs undefeated.
Elkins has a chance to win state, but likely won't. Southlake most certainly will not win state as they are 5th in their class, but 37th nationally
Southlake (11-0) wins first round playoff game 63-7 and moves on to face Frienship (10-1) in the next round.
Elkins (11-0) wins over Central in their first round playoff game 52-6 and moves on to face someone in the next round.
Southlake will likely run into a team with way more "raw talent" or "speed" and good coaching later in the playoffs and lose.

Mena and the next round are home games for Elkins. They'll probably get through those two. The Mills or Warren game will be an away game. They embarrassed Warren are Ark Tech the third game of the season and probably had 28 of the 49 points scored on turnovers. Elkins is down a couple of starters from that game that hopefully won't hurt them. They played great Friday night but this time of year the talent is better every week. Go Elks!

I think they go by regions when it comes to seeding at that round. Rotated year to year. If Elkins makes it to Warren, I'll have to go to that one.
Warren is a 1 seed and would be on top of the bracket. That's how.
Each conference is seeded. Elkins is 1 seed in 1-4A. Mills is one seed in 2-4A. Mills and Dardanelle got first round byes because it was the 2-4A & 4-4A conference's turn to get the bye. Remember Elkins mercy ruled Daranelle. Warren is one seed in the 8-4A and in the same bracket as Elkins. It's their conference's year to be on top of the bracket.

I have no idea and have no idea who was posting, so whether legit or not, who knows. I have no attachment to Nashville. I just ran into the posts while checking out the playoff info.
Frankly, the IQ level on that site seems to be lower than Hogville.
PA is leading Fayetteville 25-24 at the end of the 3rd.
Good game.
The winner gets fed to Bryant next week.
Fayetteville and PA tied at 32. Going to OT
Fayetteville got a VERY sketchy 2-point conversion to tie it up with 25 seconds left.
Looked like the runner's knee was down, the ball was fumbled into the endzone, OA recovered but refs ruled he broke the plane.
PA wins 39-32 in OT.
Elkins wins a fairly competitive game against Mena 35-16.
Southlake wins a nailbiter 69-62 or something like that over Frienship. Was either tied or within one score almost the whole gam with Southlake scoring to win near the end.

Elkins and Southlake both barely win their games to move on.
Elkins in in the semifinals after beating Malvern 45-31 and will face Mills while Arkadelphia/Southside face off on the other side of the braket.
Southlake beat Hebron 42-37 to move onto the final 8 of 6A Division II and will face Guyer. if they happen to win that, they would face the winner of the DeSoto/Longview battle and thus their season would for sure be over.
I still haven't figured out the whole Division I/II thing as it seems there is a state champ from both and they run parallel? I guess with so many teams it makes sense but would seem you would have the two winners play for the actual state championship?

It's based on enrollment, but it doesn't make sense to me because you can have teams in the same district playing in the different divisions. Also, there are schools (hello Highland Park) that ensure that they get in certain Classes/Divisions by manipulating their enrollment. I'm sure they are not the only school that does it.
Bryant beat the shit out of PA.
Elkins' game wasn't as close as the score might seem (2 scores). It was their last home game and now must go to Mills for their semi-final game. Still playing well but lost a few starters and looked banged up Friday night. Defensive backfield was vulnerable and may get taken advantage of at Mills. Btw, Mills has a freshman at QB that's suppose to be phenomenal.

Putting PA in 7A was extreme overreach and overreaction to their success. It is wonder Cobb was able to make it the whole season.
FWIW - I am not a PA guy.

I am somewhat of a PA guy and I agree.
There is no guarantee that any school should keep winning titles when they move up. Honestly they probably fit better at 6A, but they acquitted themselves pretty well given the disadvantages they faced.

PA belongs in 6A in my opinion. They also have a numbers disadvantage, but most games were competitive. Greenwood and PA are pretty damn similar as far as their success and have played some fantastic games over the years.
PA is at a considerable disadvantage in football numbers compared to 7A teams (1800-2000 vs. 350 in 10-12th enrollment). This disadvantage mostly shows in the backups. PA was playing a 9th grader at 2nd string RB (he's an outstanding 9th grader). Not many teams have a 10th grader seeing the field, much less a 9th grader.

He runs the same system but isn't ideologically married to it to the team's detriment. Plus he's not abrasive.

You're right. I was there and Elkins was up 42-10 after three quarters. They let Malvern get some late touchdowns against backups.

Greenwood beats Shiloh 61-35 to win state.
Interesting stat, Kane Archer finishes season w/ more TDs (57) than incompletions (56). 2 interceptions.
Southlake has scratched out scores in a variety of ways, including 2X blocked punts for TD, to come back from being down 0-14 to now lead 42-24 late in the third.
Southlake scores again to go up 49-24 and Guyer answers back in 2 plays to cut it to 49-31. Southlake better keep scoring as they aren't stopping them very well.
Southlake marches it down the field again and scores to go up 56-31. Moving the ball against this defense is impressive. Guyer supposedly has 3 D1 commits on their D line.
Guyer marches it down the field again and scores to cut it to 56-38 with 6 minutes left in the 4th.
Wheels falling off now. Guyer scores to cut it to 56-45 and then recovers the onside kick with 3:50 left in the 4th qtr. Epic collapse is happening.
Defense stiffens and gets a turnover, not back on offense and trying to kill off the remaining 2:28. Another first down hopefully will do it.
FINALLY. Got a first down and should be able to run it out.
Now, on to the Semifinals where they will likely be sacrificial lambs for whoever wins between DeSoto and Longview.
Semifinals 4 times in the last 5 years isn't bad at all. Unfortunately, we usually end up facing teams with more 'Natural Talent'...and that is hard to overcome. I'm not sure Southlake has any D1 commits.

I wish GT would troll them for walkons to keep a connection going.
The QB they got last year hasn't played yet but the OL is a stud (Harrison Moore), played a lot at guard and looked good doing it.
I don't know how walkons work now because the scholarship and roster limits are the same.

Ironically, the structure of Southlake makes this very difficult as there are no apartments, just single family homes and a few townhomes by city code. Median listing price is around $1.7M so it is hard to 'stash' a kid in the district so they can play sports as far as I understand it.
The real secret is just a bunch of rich kids, mostly white, that get a fuckload of extra instruction/training to get every single drop of performance out of their limited physical potential. Also, the "system" helps where from the earliest age, every single football team runs the same system so by the time they get to HS, the entire system is second nature to them with very little to learn. Same with cheerleading. You have little girls doing the same routines as the senior high girls the entire way up so it is all just second nature by the time they get there. The problem is when they run into other well coached teams with more physical potential (like DeSoto normally). Right now, we actually have two D1 commit RB's. I think USC and somewhere else decent, both hurt, so our main running back is a converted receiver. We might actually have a chance if those dudes were healthy and the current RB could play receiver. Alas, they aren't and we will likely get boatraced in the finals like usual. Still a great year all things considered.
Baseball is also another where all that extra outside school parent-paid training comes in handy.
Basketball...just can't overcome the physical limitations if you know what I mean.
My plan for my son is an alternate sport since, let's be honest, being a half-Japanese kid without a great athlete parents, he isn't likely to make varsity unless it is kicker or something. Maybe baseball.
This is my plan: https://www.carrollbassteam.com/ either that or golf...but I prefer the idea of bass fishing since it would be a good excuse to get the best boat I can afford "For the boy's future" and potential scholarships.

Yeah the Elkins QB had a concussion and was clearly still suffering from lingering effects of that. Plus the conditions and Arky had a great game plan.
I'd like to see a rematch where he isn't concussed and it's 60 degrees with clear skies. But it is what it is. Arky was a deserving champion.

Yeah, Ben should not have been on the field. I felt for him, was told he was very distraught after the game. 15 games is a lot of games for 4A/3A sized schools. Talent, good coaching is key but luck and staying healthy is huge. Elkins had a starting OL and starting DB out with ACLs since PG game and had a couple beat up from last week, including the QB. Arky definitely had the edge in talent. QB is just a sophomore (week before Mills QB was a freshman).
Arky was a class act too. Kids and coaches very respectful before and after the game.

They spend a ton on it for sure. Both time and money. But it becomes their social group as well, both for the kids and the parents.

In theory I am as well.
But I watch my nephews who are good players and have a blast doing it and see the benefit. The older one (currently 13) has the ability to play somewhere after high school if he keeps developing. You can't teach 95th percentile velocity and left-handedness. I just hope they don't get too burned out on it.

My 8 year old is on a travel baseball team, but they only play local in central AR area and don't travel out of state. I'll never go that route.
If it comes to that for the travel team he's on as he gets older we'll go back to his local league at Jr. Deputy here in LR.

Quote from: dhog on Dec 16, 2024, 09:36 AMYeah, my grandson is 17 has a couple friends that play travel baseball and they are gone most weekends and all Summer. Thousands of dollars in travel expense. He also has a girlfriend that does travel softball. She's gone every weekend and was in Oklahoma all weekend last week. Baseball/Softball have definitely become a year round expensive sports.
it is crazy the number of tournaments but then it is quite teh side hustle for umpires.
Back to the Elkins game, their punter got injured and they kicked a field goal instead. The announcers called it a free kick, like it was something you could declare. I didn't hear the full explanation.
???
In high school a FG that goes out of bounds in the field is the same as a punt. Returning team's ball where it goes out.
If it goes into end zone it is a dead ball and comes out to the 20.
They "attempted" a 70 yd FG.

Arky did that after the blocked punt. Never seen that before.
Quote from: Keyser Soooie on Dec 16, 2024, 10:52 AMMy 8 year old is on a travel baseball team, but they only play local in central AR area and don't travel out of state. I'll never go that route.
If it comes to that for the travel team he's on as he gets older we'll go back to his local league at Jr. Deputy here in LR.
Nice thing about living in a big metro is that it's easy to keep it local. My son plays AAU basketball and we never leave the metroplex, everything's within an hour or so. Same with a lot of select baseball here (nobody uses the term "travel" because it isn't really required). He plays teams from Little Rock, New Orleans, etc but doesn't need to go anywhere.

This is my plan: https://www.carrollbassteam.com/ either that or golf...but I prefer the idea of bass fishing since it would be a good excuse to get the best boat I can afford "For the boy's future" and potential scholarships.
Here you go bro. It's used but only $160,000

The announcers had the wrong terminology (that shouldn't surprise anyone). It's just another type of scrimmage kick. Punts and field goal attempts are both scrimmage kicks.
I've heard there are a few teams that do this every time they need to punt. In high school, a field goal attempt has the same rules as a punt. The only correction I have is that I don't think it has to go out of bounds. If they kick from their own 20 yard line for a "90 yard field goal attempt" and the ball rolls dead at the other team's 30 yard line in-bounds, the other team snaps from the 30.
The rule in the NCAA is different. An unsuccessful field goal attempt comes back to either the 20-yard line or where it was snapped from...whichever is more beneficial to the defense.

Arkansas did this? What game and what was the situation? The only reason I can think of to attempt a field goal after a blocked punt is because there is only enough time for one play and you only need 3 points (or you would like an additional 3 points going into the half).

Yes, it's just treated like a punt, it can also be returned.

I believe the "Arky" being referenced is Arkadelphia High School.

OK. That makes more sense. Thanks!

I never realized the rule in high school was different than the college rule.
An interesting one to me is the free place kick after a fair catch rule. When my sister was in high school in the late 1990s El Dorado won a game like this.

That's what I thought. They were talking like it was a dead ball and some special rule.

If I remember right (I haven't looked at high school rules in 20 years and I've never really looked at the NFL rules), a free kick after a fair catch is an option in high school and the NFL but not in NCAA. This does not apply in Texas as they use NCAA rules in high school football.
Texas High School Finals (https://www.uiltexas.org/football/state/results)
These start today at 11am, 3pm and 7pm. They'll play the same times tomorrow and Saturday. They are being aired on FanDuel which used to be Bally's, which used to be Fox Sports Southwest. DirecTV 676.
I firmly believe a good college football team could be formed just out of the players that are playing the next three days.
bacon out!

Yeah, looking at some of the teams that Southlake beat, they had a shitload of D1 talent. A good chunk of the SL D1 talent is hurt and out so not looking good for them. Oh well, making the finals is a pretty damned good year all things considered.

This North Crowley team has at least 4 Power 4 players. They got speed for days. Deion is getting a WR that I would love to see at Arkansas.
KJ Edwards from Carthage needs to be a Hog.

Southlake gonna get whooped I'm afraid.
Southlake down 24-14 and had 1st and goal from the 5 with around 3 minutes left. Didn't score and Vandergriff has the ball at the 1, 2:32 left. Southlake with 1 TO left
Southlake kicks a FG with 1 second left, down 24-17. The spread must have been 8.
It's over. Not a good weekend for DFW teams. SOC, Highland Park and Southlake all lose.
Yeah, we just didn't have enough for them.
