D5/6 AA Playoffs: Round 2

[ham55]

I know for a fact that Derrick and Troy were both 'contacted' by Bishop McCort to see if they were interested in attending school there. THEY'RE NOT EVEN CATHOLIC!!!! I bring the facts and the pain, and don't tell me it was because of academic reasons as to why they were contacting them either.

hey ham..if i was either of the harris boys i think i woulda went to mccort..that way u get pas the first round of the playoffs

[mccort=#1]

Can you even proove that!!!!i honestly don't believe that what so ever!!!I never saw them in a McCort uniform because we never contacted them. It is only a rumor so keep making up stories. Also name one McCort athlete that has either been recruited or is on scholorship!!!!!You can't!!!!You know you can't so stop trying to make up stories to prove your worthless point!!!!!!

[mccort=#1]

McCort doesnt't recruit!!!End of story you can't argue something that is 100% untrue!!!! You public school people honestly need to think of a reason of why a Catholic school is actually good. SOmeone started this rumor and now every single public school thinks McCort recruits because they are the good!! I just think none of you can accept the fact that a Catholic school can beat a public school!!!!!!!!


So quit trying to hide behind lies and just accept the fact that we don't have any advantages its a even playing field!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mccort=#1]

I mean come on!!!I want to see your proof!Did they tell you they were contacted???As far as i know i don't think they have a tradition of lies and decit. But more of winniong tradition and great players. I am not gonna let you tell me that i am moron because I don't see you as a reliable source to say who was recruited or not. McCort never recruited anyone!!!You are jsut someone who bought into a rumor that was never proven true!!!!



SO I don not respect your opinion McCort has integerety and you don't understand because you aren't around the school everyday!!

There is the this belief that McCort is only a football school. It is also a great academic school. They have numorus scholorships to major universites every year and 98% of which arent athletic!!



So you would understand more if you were actually aprat of that school!

I know for a fact that Derrick and Troy were both contacted by Bishop McCort(funny how they both are stand-out athletes at Bedford) about attending school there. What more evidence do you want? Hard testimony from TWO people that were contacted by McCort. What more do you need? Do you need to hear it in person? I'm sure they'll be glad to tell you the same thing. Even though you won't want to hear it.

I'm not credible? I'm good friends with both of them. Why would they lie to me about that? (just so you know, this was WAY before this year, even last year or the year before) I'm glad I'm not a part of that school(I'm assuming that's what you ment, unless I was somehow affiliated with it, then seperated), I'm very proud of where I've come from and won't ever forget it. Don't rub it in other people's faces, you already have a smug feeling about you, do you really want to increase that?

OMG I am laughing my butt off here. The Bishops dont recruit huh?? I mean they dont try to attract athletes to there school huh? Talk to Coach bailey from Richland and he will tell you a good recruiting story. I was drinking one time with some guys who coaches at a Bishop school. they were very drunk and I asked them Do you recruit. They said and I quote I am not saying we do BUT i am not saying we dont either. ANd they smiled. DOnt recruit HA HA that is a good one there ole mccort boy

Ok, all you guys know I am a McCort Alum, but not a fan...at least anymore. McCort definitly recruits, but not like you think. The football staff goes and speaks to all the paraochial 7th and 8th grade football players and takes the 8th graders out to eat then to a freshman football game. As far as good athletes from area public schools being contacted by Kenny, it does not happen! But let me say this, the vibe is sent out that Kenny will take any good athletes, there have been many instances were athletes from other schools, not happy with something at their school, have contacted McCort and Kenny tried to get them to come to McCort, giving them tours and such. Two people come to mind, Bobby Hagerich almost came to McCort after his junior year I believe. Supposedly, he was even in the weight room one day. He was not recruited directly until he showed intrest and his dad got a hold of Kenny. The other case is Bill Bruce, once he showed intrest he was recruited. Now as far as the Harris Brothers being recruited directly, I find that hard to believe. They live almost and hour away. And imagine coming over the mountain in the winter. What were they going to move in with Kenny? Maybe he talked with them at a track meet or something and complemented them and said something like I would love to have you guys on my team, but they would not be feasible because of geography. Oh wait maybe their family was offered a free house or something, lets get real guys. McCort does have an advantage because any athelete from any school can go there, but lets get over it. If you want to talk about recruiting start a new topic do not bring it up in every topic.

One more thing to say, there is more kids from public schools on McCort's team than there have been in the past, I think this happened after McCort won D6 in 2001, and ironically, in that year, I do not think there were any significant contributers that did not go to a parochial grade except for Ray Forgas I think, I could be wrong. Also, two of the main transfers that people think about are the Lewis brothers and they went to MCort because they were not happy with FH and their dad holds a position having to do with the Catholic high schools in the area. They obviously did not go there to be on a better football team because Forest Hills has a pretty rich football tradition, how many winning seasons have they had in a row? No one cares because they talk about the D6 titles they have won and how far they have went in the playoffs, that is what high school football is about. When was the last time you heard somebody say, "When I was in high school we had three winning seasons?

Thank you Mr. Hype for telling them the truth!!So if they want to believe that we recruit they can go ahead. McCort never has and never will. Also to clear up one thing....Is it wrong to help students go to a Catholic high school???I mean whats wrong with sponsoring a student??I mean if a less prevliged public school student does he not get food stamps or half priced lunches???I mean lets face it McCort is expensive and some students can'y afford so some people will sponsor them and in return they must work on weekends to help pay off their tuition!!!!!



Also i say enough about all this off field crap and lets start talking about Friday Night's game!!!!!!!!

10 bucks says there won't be one McCort fan on this board to pay the Piper next week after the Crushers lose to Tyrone.
