Re: GAHS FOOTBALL 2013

Talent wise we could be as good as 8-2 having some of the staff back will help depends on how the old (saunders) meshes with the new ( mcclellan & barth.) drastic different styles and can saunders be an assistant coach keep his mouth shut? I say prob not! This season could be a train wreck we w...

Re: Gallia Academy 2010

I dont believe people would leave because of the field. That's just trying to find a reason to complain about something. But, GAHS is in a catch 22 because they cant afford a new field and it would be a waste of money to upgrade Memorial Field. Natural elements will always be a factor there. I playe...

Re: Athens @ GAHS

Correct me if I dont remember if this was at GAHS or in Athens...but: Athens fans who remember the late 80's know that they should consider the 1984 game the "Miracle at Memorial". The Big Blue got hosed when they put 2 seconds back on the clock even though time had expired and they threw ...

Re: top five high school rivals

There are definately long running rivalries but they also go in spurts. GAHS and Logan were definately rivals in the mid to late 80's and early 90's. 10 years doesnt make it a rivalry , I know, but it feels like it to the players in those years.

Re: GAHS Athletic Hall-of-Fame committee to meet July 13

Just an observation:

Criteria for selections to the GAHS Athletic Hall of Fame
A member must be out of high school for 10 years.

Last year’s eligible dates were:
1984 for men
1989 for women

?????????????

Why dont they just change it to 20 years out of High School?

Does anyone know if they are doing the golf outing again or not? I like to make plans to come to town that weekend.

Re: BEST LINEBACKERS PAST 25 Years

The guy for GAHS in 85-86 was Bruce O'Rourke. He averaged over 10 tackles a game. Andy was indeed a DE and an animal. Bruce walked on at Wake Forest but played only 1 year.

Re: BEST LINEBACKERS PAST 25 Years

Scott McCort from Logan killed us in the late 80's. I may have single handedly made him All-SEOAL with the interceptions he had against us!

Re: Coaching search at GA

Does it matter the sport? Are you kidding? Do you think Coach Tressel could coach basketball at Ohio State? If your answer is yes then I'll just take your responses as a joke.

Did the Woodard or Woodward kid play for Saunders or Bok as a head coach?

Re: Coaching search at GA

So you think we should hire a successful JV basketball coach (if that is who it is he was talking about) to coach our football team?????? Interesting!

Re: Coaching search at GA

There is a coach in Gallia County that has won 90% of the high school games he has coached? How many years? As a head coach??? Hope your not talking about Jr. High or midget football.

Re: Coaching search at GA

A really young guy with lots of experience and success it a tough combination to find. My opinoin is that if you go after some young coach that is fiery and a "players" coach, you get someone who is a buddy instead of a coach. He may be well liked but is he respected? If you dont respect y...

Re: Best All-Time Coach in Gallia County

My vote goes to Coach Saunders. His record speaks for itself but what most people dont realize is what he started with and how he built the program to what is is today..respected around southern Ohio. His first team went 0-10 and 2 years later took them to the playoffs for the first time in school h...

Re: Ideas to Raise Money for Athletic Boosters!!!

You have to also remember that there are lots of Alum who no longer live in Gallia County that would be interested in helping out as well. Problem is that we dont have any communication. I have never been contacted by either the Booster Club or Alumni Association. I guess I could be more proactive (...

Re: Gallia has more than 40 report for drills

With numbers like that, you really need sophomores and freshmen to get time or at least hold there own in practice to give the started a good look. Also, a little off topic but does anyone know who I would contact if I wanted to play in the Varsity G Golf outing coming up on the 17th? Called Cliffsi...

Re: Gallia selects 7th Hall of Fame class

I wouldnt worry too much if someone you think should be in isn't yet. Arguably the best football player in school history (Andy Howard) and best basketball player in school history (Gary Harrison) aren't in yet. Their time will come. My guess is they havent been nominated yet.
