Congratulations CAL!!!! Bell did great and Congratulations as well!!!
12-02-2023, 04:16 PM
In the time it took me to type something saying that I was glad Bell was keeping it a two score game I swear CAL scored twice. I was just reading Grannybear's posts when I typed that. Bell hung in till late in the third. Respect to Bell, Dud and congrats to CAL.
12-02-2023, 04:19 PM
Bell knew they had to limit CAL's offensive touches, and they executed that plan flawlessly for the first quarter. CAL didn't even touch the ball offensively until second quarter. HOWEVER, once they did touch the ball, they scored in under two minutes. CAL is a scoring machine, and deserve the 3A title!!
I hope Bell doesn't get down too much! They hung with CAL as well as most any other team would.
I'm pretty proud of the way the BobCats represented!

As far back as I can remember I have hated Bell County. They've always been Harlan County's biggest rival.
BUT that stops when the games stop!! I have some wonderful friends from Bell County, and I have nothing but respect for the football program. That said, ANY kid with the records, stats and character that Daniel Thomas has deserves to be Mr Football. And what team he plays on, matters NONE!!!

It’s a game until the “fumble” recovery. I’ll have to read up on my forward progress rule cause getting held up for 3 seconds going backward and then get stripped. One official also blew his whistle, but then stopped and acted as nothing happened. Inadvertently or not that crushed bell. The super small chance bell had was taken away there or it’s a 28-24 in the 4th and not 35-16. Major momentum shift.
Either way Cal was the much better team, and that was obvious from the opening kick. Bell made plays when it mattered on multiple 4th downs, but then couldn’t capitalize off of the 1 stop they had on defense. They held the ball the whole first 3 quarters, and then let cal have it 3 times in the 4th. But both teams played good and it was a competitive game to watch for most of it.
Thomas is still mr football. Hodge is amazing, but there’s probably 5 dudes as skill positions worth D1 offers. Hodge (wr), Ruffin, #3, 11, and 35 would start WR at every school in the state regardless of class. Conner Hodge and Ruffin are the best two athletes ive seen in 4 games so far in kroger other than Quizenberry.

I hope Bell doesn't get down too much! They hung with CAL as well as most any other team would.
I'm pretty proud of the way the BobCats represented!

Thomas is easily the best running back in the state numbers don't lie he broke records easily one of the best talents from bell county and the schools in the county I have seen in my years and gald he showed the state how to light up a scoreboard(12-02-2023, 04:56 PM)Granny Bear Wrote: As far back as I can remember I have hated Bell County. They've always been Harlan County's biggest rival.To each their own, I respect Daniel Thomas character and play, he’s one of the hardest working players I’ve seen play high school football. There’s no hate here all I said is that he wasn’t the best running back in the state. Ruffled a few bobcat feathers I see. Nothing new from that bunch.
BUT that stops when the games stop!! I have some wonderful friends from Bell County, and I have nothing but respect for the football program. That said, ANY kid with the records, stats and character that Daniel Thomas has deserves to be Mr Football. And what team he plays on, matters NONE!!!
Best stats in the state I’ll agree with, hardest working I’ll also agree with. Far from the best
This statement from YellowjacketFan should tell you guys all you need to know.

Since thomas did have over 131, without the offense I’ve brought up in the past that LCA has. Everyone in the stadium knew who was getting the ball today, that’s not the case for LCA and that helps. Multiple times thomas was hit 2 yards in the backfield and made it 2nd and 3. I’ve now seen hodge twice, Hensley 3 times this season but more last season, bodner more than enough, thomas of course, and carrico once.

I personally doubt he can.(12-02-2023, 05:25 PM)Cafe Mocha Wrote: He is the best RB in the state… “statistically”, but we all know the “body of work” against a tougher competition and the numbers put up against those teams belongs to the #42.He had 28 for 131 against cal, would like to see what thomas had but he broke the 100 yard mark in the 3rd. Thats the common opponent.
Thomas
hodge
hensley
carrico (the first time i’ve seen him was last night)
bodner
