Note to Georgia Southern fans; Forget Alabama, this is what really matters
I know, I know. Everybody in Georgia Southern's passionate fanbase is geared up about Saturday's game at Alabama. Me included.
Reclassification coming next week
Looks like reclassification will happen after all. After months of talk, then a lot of silence, there is again movement. The AJC (Atlanta Journal Constitution for those who might not know) is reporting in its Prep Zone blog that the Georgia High School Association reclassification committee will meet Wednesday to place the state's 440 member high schools into one of six classifications. After that, schools will have to decide whether they want to play at ...
Not sports related, but .... gonna say it anyway
I've been lazy about updating The Sports Blog lately, but will try to change that ....
It's been quite a while
Bryan County High School assured itself of its first winning season in football since 1991 with Friday's 13-12 win over Claxton at the Pecan Grove
Don't be surprised if the Wildcats have more surprises up their sleeve
Note: This was written a few hours prior to Richmond Hill High School's 14-6 win over Liberty County High School.
Thoughts on chants at a football game
My dear wife, who hasn't been to a high school football game in years, was at first appalled when I told her what some young Richmond Hill High School fans chanted loudly during Friday's game against South Effingham. Then she got mad. "I can't believe they said things like that. Those should be fighting words," she said. "That's just mean." You know what I'm talking about if you were there: I could hear it from ...
Meet RHHS quarterback Dominique Allen
Meet Richmond Hill High School quarterback Dominique Allen, who is drawing attention from schools like Georgia Tech, Mississippi State and Georgia Southern, just to name a few.
The Wildcats and a little numerology
Some numbers for you Wildcat fans to digest as you count down to Friday night's kickoff against visiting South Effingham, courtesy Mr. Rob Ferendo -- Richmond Hill High School's stat guru.
Unbeaten, untied and unbelievable
In case you haven't noticed, both high school football teams in Bryan County are unbeaten. That's right. They're 3-0 each, or 6-0 as a pair.
Six classification deal still no fix for what ails local schools
The Georgia High School Association will go to six classifications beginning in the fall of 2012.
Wildcats take care of business in opener
Quick thoughts on Friday night's RHHS-Johnson game. The good: Richmond Hill looked to be the more talented and better coached team against Johnson in the season opener on Thursday. That's how a team should look in a 27-0 win. The Wildcats have a good collection of running backs and quarterback Dominique Allen looks like a good fit for the team's option oriented attack. Basically, the Wildcats took care of business. The bad: Apart from ...
UGA's new uniforms
If you haven't seen what UGA is apparently going to wear against Boise State in the season opener, looky here:
Looks like it's going to be an all nighter
UPDATE: It's now 1:33 p.m. and I'm STILL working on the football previews. That makes it something like 29,000 hours straight, or maybe 28, I'm not sure. I do know I think my brain grew a mullet a little while back -I shared that on Facebook --and before restarting my computer for the umpteenth time since last night I've changed my desktop background to a photo of Steve Taneyhill taunting Clemson fans after the Gamecocks pulled an upset back whenever it was.
If my head suddenly pops
If my head suddenly pops like one of those nylon balloons -- do nylon balloons pop? I don't know, but who cares -- pay my noggin no mind.
Football previews and more coming up
I know, I know. High schoo football's here. So is softball, cross country and volleyball. I'm working on previews for each prep team in the county -- and putting together another special section on football. Just so you know. In addition, I'm also working on a series on girls and women in sports for the BCN. I had aimed at finishing it up over the summer, but the best laid plans often go awry, to ...
