Re: Best QB in the Area?
Thanks KVDW for hanging on my every opinion I appreciate it. Second remember it's my opinion that's what forums are for to voice an opinion. If everyone agreed with everyone this site would not exist. So again thanks. And my choice for Myers over Sloan is the strength of the schedules they play. It's not even close between the two schools as far as schedule goes. Just look at Portsmouth's non league schedule before they ever get into the league schedule which by the way is the toughest league in our area.
Non League Schedule;
Wilmington (D2)
West
Wheelersburg
Ironton
Then Add;
Logan (D2)
Jackson (D3)
Gallia (D3)
Warren (D2)
Chilly (D3)
Marietta (D2)
Other than Sloan there isn't another QB mention that could do what Myers does with that schedule. And since Sloan hasn't done it against the same caliber teams that Myers has, that why Myers is MY CHOICE. Again thank you KVDM at least my opinion has created debate, that's what this site is about. By the way I think both guys have their WR's back, I know Portsmouth has everyone back on their offense and add Bendolph at the other WR spot. Myers #'s will be off the charts this year he is the returning SEOAL South POY and his whole Offense is back.

Re: Best QB in the Area?
Its close,no doubt couldnt go wrong with either,but my pick would be Myers,and for those who dont think schedule means anything,you are absolutely wrong.
Re: Best QB in the Area?
no need to thank me for hanging on your opinion because i wasn't commenting on your opinion at all in the beginning. i was commenting on your contradicting yourself. you very clearly said that Ratliff and Shear shouldn't be on anybody's list because they had never played QB and proven themselves....trojanofthepast wrote:Thanks KVDW for hanging on my every opinion I appreciate it.

"Nothing against Ratliff and Shear good QB's but shouldn't be on this list. Neither has proven anything on the field at that position to win games at the QB spot."
then you turn right around and put a QB on your list that "has never proven anything on the field at that position to win games at the QB spot" either.
my question was, why do you say that other posters shouldn't put their selections on the list because they don't have the varsity experience at that position, then put another player on YOUR list that fits the same mold. that has nothing to do with your OPINION, it has to do with your reasoning or rational. perhaps you are just more football savvy than those other posters, huh ?
THEN
......you echo Big Red and say that "the numbers don't lie". yet when i point out that Sloan had better numbers than Myers you come back and say they were in different leagues. you had said nothing about "leagues" initially, only that "the numbers don't lie". so which is it that really counts... "numbers don't lie" or "the league determines which is better" ?
in the beginning you were adamant about your selection of Myers because "numbers don't lie".... until it was pointed out that Sloan had the better numbers ... then apparently you decided that numbers DO lie and found other logic to put Myers on top.


btw... how did Myers do against D2 Wilmington last year?

I certainly didn't say that schedules didn't mean anything. i just get confused as to why TOTP can't make up his mind why he thinks Myers is better.

btw... how did Oak Hill (Sloan) and Minford come out last year? hint...(OAKS WIN 20- 14 )
MINFORD...the team that beat Wheelersburg last year.
WHEELERSBURG... the team that litterally kicked the doo-doo out of Portsmouth last year.
better teams can't necessarilly always be determined by leagues.

Re: Best QB in the Area?
KVDW and I go back a long way 42iso, I think we've know each other for about a week now. :122245
Re: Best QB in the Area?
42iso..not really.
what is it they call people that tell other people not to do something.... then turn around and do it themselves?? hippopotamuses ? no... it's hypo... something..
btw.... here are Myers stats for the 1st 4 games last year (according to portsmouth98)...
Passing ATT-COMP Yards INT TDS
Josh Myers 26-72 364 2 2
26 for 72... that's barely a 35% completion rate
2 interceptions and 2 TDs. that's not a very good ratio either.
and guess what... that wasn't against that tough seoal league either.
i honestly don't believe he would have even gotten the POY in the SOC.

Re: Best QB in the Area?
totp you really got him going and i know your having to much fun with it. i think there are only 2 in the discussion and both have been mentioned. ones career will be on a baseball diamond at the next level (myers), and the other will be on a football field (sloan). both are great athletes and very good HIGH SCHOOL QB'S. wish them both luck this year as both will be players of the year in their conference. all that said myers is my choice as the best QB and i will not get KVDM focused on me so i have no rankings it's just myers (KVDM it's just my opinion).
Re: Best QB in the Area?
actually, accordind to Portsmouth98's stats Myers had 72 completions in 26 attempts. :122246 :122246 he seems as mixed up as ol TOTP is. i think some of you guys from Portsmouth drink a little too much.

Josh Myers 26-72 364 2 2
if he had 72 completions in 26 attempts, i can see why he was the POY !!!!!

any of you other big TROJANS wanna jump in ?????




Re: Best QB in the Area?
seems like instead of just posting your pick you've chosen to attack a very good kid and try and make him look bad. all because another poster posted something you didn't agree with. not cool!

yeah, he's got me going about like you boy's TROJANS had the PIRATES going last year.

Re: Best QB in the Area?
why don't you try reading before you open your big mouth, Big Time ?? (it's plain that you boys get confused easily but now i learn that you can't even read) . i plainly stated that Myers is a good QB.KVDW wrote: Myers is a good quarterback. Sloan is a VERY GOOD quarterback. your bias is showing.... (which is OK)
i haven't slammed ANY kid, so don't even try it. i've merely given factual stats to support my position. like your buddy said, i'm just giving my opinion just like he does as to why i think Sloan is better ..... and have given LOGICAL reasons why.... but i guess i'm not allowed to voice an opinion if it goes against the mighty TROJAN gang..
i'll bet you voted for obammy, too, didn't you?

Re: Best QB in the Area?
Slone is probably the best of the bunch, but doesnt play the best competition which hurts him.
Myers puts up the stats against a good schedule.
McCollister carries a mediocre team and is being looked at by high D-1s.
Any one of those three can be considered the best, but if I were starting a team I would pick Slone.

Re: Best QB in the Area?
not to cause a stir, but there is some very good qb mentioned.I would have to say though,the oaks competition wasnt that strong last year.now if slone puts up the numbers this year like last year,then he would make a believer out of a lot of doubters.also heard that his dad calls the plays.If this is true no wonder he put up some big numbers .
