You obviously have NO idea what you are talking about, we have a passionate fan base, but ELITST? What elite person or persons are leading our (football attitudes)?:dontthink

That would be one heck of a bus ride to school. And they hate on corbin for pulling from 3 counties, couldnât imagine 20!

He is correct about there being a Dunbar. When schools were segregated, there was a Dunbar school here in Mayfield, on 12th St. It now serves as the bus garage. I'm not sure how that has anything to do with elitest though. Those were different times when a lot of folks had phobias about integration. I'm sure that was a hurdle to overcome across the nation. But, just like in the movie, Remember the Titans, they got past it and have embraced it. I don't think you will find a kid or parent in Mayfield that would want to change it now. What was once a fear is now a love.

Welp, I learned something today. I did not know that. I thought it was a little weird for smoke to say something like that, because he is very knowledgeable about football. But it makes sense now. But Iâm also with you on it relating to all of this somehow?

Have you ever attended a Danville- Mayfield championship game ?

Took a glance at the film. First impressions from a MF perspective: 1. MF will score some points if they stay balanced and can get JS settled in early. 2. Whereas last week was about the interior defense, this week will be about the edge and perimeter folks. If Smith and Q can set the edge and feed everything back inside, MF will be fine. Nate and Markeacio will need to have big games and play disciplined. 3. Danville has played some really bad teams in the playoffs. Just hard to watch some of those teams. I've seen several middle school teams that execute better and are more fundamentally sound. 4. Danville is very good up front, especially defensively. 5. Danville's QB is a lock-on and throw to the first guy kind of QB. Read progression isn't really there at this point. 5. Danville's LBs and DBs (with the exception of safety obviously) are better than CALs. 6. This will be a very tough game. The winner will have definitely earned their trophy.

I'm sad to hear that you have already disabled the Danville offense from so far away. They should save themselves the 45 minute drive and just stay home where it's warm .

No I haven't listened to my first in 09 my daughters couisin was playing, ended up becoming a big fan listened in the next 2 years in 10, and 11, and went to 4 straight 12-15.

For excitement the first one, 1987, was the best.
Danville had a bunch of turnovers but moved the ball well (Donnie Redd and Tim McDaniel both had over 100 yards rushing). Schlosser (?) had some great plays with his arm for Mayfield.
Admirals built a 17-7 lead in the 4th quarter but the Cardinals came back to tie it and force Overtime.
Danville scored on 3rd down in their possession when Freshman RB David Walker ran it in for a TD to make it 24-17.
Mayfield scored on 2nd down in their possession and decided to tie it and send it to another OT.
The same kid, Walker, came in from the Admiral left side and blocked the EP kick and ended the game.
One of the most dramatic Title endings I've ever seen. I was on the sideline doing radio for the game and it was the best of the series IMO.

That David Walker that blocked the extra point in 87 is the Father of current Danville wide receiver/DB David Walker

I attended a O'Cath vs. Danville game at Danville. The only meeting of the schools in 2010 in the Semi finals. O'Cath won.
I think Mayfield wins. Obviously they have nothing to lose.

I'm not sure what that has to do with my question.

Why was the intergration thing even brought up.Im sure Danville had to go through segregation just as Mayfield did.All here embraced it and prospered i can remember the first day the black kids came to Washington elementary in the sixxties we all incorporated and got along well,so dont make it out it was just a Mayfield thing you make yourself sound foolish.!!!!!!

Danville probably desegregated about the same time.
It was Bate High School that was integrated with Danville High School. :Thumbs:

I'm gonna take the cards by less than a touchdown. I could see Danville being up by three late and mayfield scoring a touchdown to win it.

Simple. That was then and this is now. Yes, Danville has had alot of success vs. Mayfield in the PAST.
Been along time since these guys have played.
11-27-2017, 08:25 PM
I have watched the film on Danville... and (yes this is a shot) they don't seem that impressive... it could be the level of competition they were playing, but the the opposing teams just had terrible fundamentals and didn't play the game well (filling holes, following guards, shedding blocks) I think they come into this game and meet a well coached and fundamentally sound team that rarely makes a mistake and plays fast and physical... and are in for the fight of their lives. IMO if Mayfield brings their A- game, they still come out with a W..... IF THEY COME TO PLAY (A+) like they should, I don't see Danville winning. If both teams are turnover free, I say Mayfield wins by 14

I was friends with David back in high school. I agree, he was a great player that wasn't disciplined enough for football (and Sam Harp) at the time. His brother Willie was a great pitcher for Danville also. Stayed maybe a week at St. Catherines on a full scholarship and was back at home.
I spoke to David a few years ago, ran into him at Giovanni's in Danville. Had that same smile on his face as he always did!

Dunbar was a "colored" school. Mayfield was white. Obviously, and being quite intentionally stereotypical (it's a good stereotype though), it didn't hurt their athleticism, in the long run, as a football team. One reason I root for Danville, aside from working there for years, it is truly a tiny little school with very few kids. Mayfield feels like more of a merger of Boyle and Danville kids, although on a much smaller population level. I have never been there however. I watched them play you guys a couple of years ago and couldn't believe the offensive line talent they had. You guys probably should've won that one but coach went for the 2 and the win. I felt you had them worn down and tired and could have beaten them in OT.
