Westside is definitely not closed. He said Westside had been closed for years.
High school football update
- Thread starter Dean Pope
- Start date
That run by Jenkins was nuts. He made two moves, including one in traffic where he was sideways in the hole and still made a cut, then one more jump cut and exploded down the sideline.
Ya if I would have read it right the first time I wouldn’t have posted that. Thanks . Apologies to @BTF69 .
GI is 24-7 in VB this year Last year they were 1-21 in BB . Maybe that’s the biggest issue.And now Grand Island Senior High won't field a varsity girls BBall team this year due to no Juniors or Seniors going out for the sport.
I wonder if volleyball is having some of the same roster issues?
No varsity girls basketball at GISH in 2024-25 due to declining player numbers
At this time, GISH does not have any Junior or Senior student athletes going out for the sport.www.1011now.com
Sort of...
The fact is a lot of kids at private schools also have parents that go on vacations and leave the kids home when they are juniors and seniors, that leads to those kids doing things that kids do when their parents are gone.
They also tend to have cars when they turn 16, so they have a place to vape and drink and screw around in.
They also tend to have a lot of West O Mom juice (wine) and West O Mom Candy (pills) around at home.
When I was a kid I would steal a pull off my Dads vodka in the freezer.
No problem I got that straight from someone on the NSAA board of directors. So I know exactly how that situation played out.
I know this is a thread about HS football but I just heard Grand Island SH has canceled their girls bb schedule for this year. It appears there is quite a bit of turmoil in all Nebraska HS athletics.
First year playing Varsity level, Lincoln Standing Bear (new High School) won there first Varsity Football game yesterday, with no senior class.
I think what he's talking about is specific top athletes being pushed to attend their school. Plus Catholic Schools have less "dead weight" in their enrollment numbers. There are some built in advantages. That is the reason that you see certain schools consistently at the top of their ratings.
I agree. The best teachers make the best coaches. I've always said elementary teachers are the best teachers. And yes, a good SPED teacher is worth his/her weight in gold.
A Catholic School I am familar with only takes a fraction of the SPED students that you would find at a similarly sized public school. And all SPED services are provided free of charge by the local public school. When kids don't cut it behaviorally or academically, they will soon find themselves enrolled at that same public school. (And lower socioeconomic kids, usually not involved in activities, are not at that private school either.)
I could just guess which school with some scared ass administration would allow their kids to chant such a thing.
Your broad generalizations are so far off the mark. But they are entertaining nonetheless.
That is actually a big deal. Tough to win games without seniors.
One or two of the local stories covering this brought up more kids focusing on one sport, like kids being in club volleyball all year long and no longer participating in a variety of sports.
I don't know. It seems that's been going on for a very long time. Maybe it's more true these days, I just don't follow HS sports all that closely.

Ah yes, specialization. Gotta play that club volleyball but not go out for the basketball team. Because, um, because that's what the club volleyball coaches say....
Beat Lincoln Northwest which I think won has only won one Varsity football game in its school history. Standing Bear forfeited earlier in the season to Waverly. I have heard though that Standing Bear has some good younger kids in the program so if they can keep their kids enrolled there they should be fine.
Interesting. As a MN parent will be curious what happens to that roster. Omaha’s own version of the transfer portal perhaps.
High school job interview question asked now: "What players can you bring with you if you get this job?" (Actually asked at a top Varsity job interview this past year).
It'll be interesting to see who gets that MS job. If a local metro coach gets the job, they'll be able to bring even more talent there...
