This game and the next three games will be excellent chances for Ashland to pad their statistics. Johnson Central will be another story. I don't think Ashland can prepare for a good opponent playing four of the least talented teams in the state- even if three are district foes. I guess it indicates the overall weakness of the district.

Being an Ashland alumn myself, its hard for me to watch this year's team. Unfortunately, when you mention them playing four of the least talented teams in the state, I wouldn't be shocked if we lost to one or more of them? They should really be 1-4 right now. Raceland didnot nbring their A game and if they had they may have won by two or three touchdowns? I'm not sure where the issue lies? There is talent, but they're simply not wanting to play for the coach for whatever reason. Whether he lost their respect somewhere down the line or there is too many cooks in the kitchen, or maybe he's just out of his league? Regardless, this needs to be dealt with before next season, because I think I speak for several others when I say that we are tired of watching our alma mater get embarrassed. Ashland has a storied history in football and the administration needs to realize that when searching for our next coach. The criteria for being the head coach at Paul Blazer should be some among the highest in the state
