    OT: Nebraska HS softball causing a ruckus.

    If you look at softball Class B and Class C there are several central/western teams in state every year. Baseball is typically Omaha and a Lincoln area schools. Travel/hotels is factored into this as well.

    OT: Nebraska HS softball causing a ruckus.

    Baseball doesn't have to be played at a complex, it can be played at several fields with teams playing a single game a day. Softball must be at a complex for the teams to play 2-3 games in a single day. That limits the options in the state to 3. There was talk about Sandhills Global complex in...

    Week 9 Class A Games with Playoff Implications

    Lincoln North Star's Tyrell Chatman was hurt during week 1 SW game, finally healthy and played full games last 2 weeks. Offense is completely different with him playing full game vs split snaps with a sophomore.

    Week 9 Class A Games with Playoff Implications

    This is what I have as most likely scenario. 3 of top 4 wildcards are all in with wins. Omaha Burke win (vs Omaha South), the 6 teams who beat all get 3 extra points as Burke move to Division 3. This impacts wildcards and some seeding. Bellevue West gets in with a win (@ Lincoln...

    Hard to believe...HS Football

    You are correct, BW was really the start of it. It feels like a long time ago though. LPS will never compete on a championship level or even be competitive because of their youth programs and non-feeder system, their strict rules around donations, budgets, and their overall view of football...

    Hard to believe...HS Football

    What they and Westside did over the last few years has ruined Class A football for the foreseeable future. It was going down this path for several years now, but this is the nail that sealed Class A's fate. Until LPS, OPS, and NSAA all make serious changes, Class A will be like this for a...

    Hard to believe...HS Football

    I don't have a solid answer on how many live in-district. 17 of 22 starters played in the Jr Patriots program. They had a solid foundation in 3rd grade and they recruited these kids starting in the Jr Patriots program after. Jett should be at Elkhorn South, but his dad had a falling out...

    Hard to believe...HS Football

    Care to expand? There are two brothers from KC area - MJ and Tatum Wash, who live with a volunteer coach. The oldest brother, MJ, played for the Junior Patriots during covid. His travel team canceled their season, so they drove up to Omaha 1-2 times a week for practice and once a week for...

    Hard to believe...HS Football

    Surprisingly MS doesn't have a lot of transfers. They recruited these players from other youth programs starting in 3rd grade. Other youth programs will tell you MS was kicked out of the Metro Youth Football League because they were recruiting other players. MS will tell you they allowed a...

    Hard to believe...HS Football

    Pretty good chance we open 1st round vs Pickle Smoochers Prep. Watched a lot of film on them, they're beatable, we haven't peaked yet, and we'll have everyone back healthy for the first time all year. Last week were finally put it together and still had one D1 safety out with injury.

    Missing Lincoln man (and Chance Englebert)

    Don't take fault off of him. If he was trying to lead the family, he wouldn't go off getting drunk, get pissed at a back handed comment, then try and just leave his wife and kid on foot.

    Missing Lincoln man (and Chance Englebert)

    Which direction from Harrison? We hunt about 20 mile east/north east of Harrison. Beautiful country up there.
