the state record occurred in a 70-45 shootout by a player on the losing team. yes, going to break the record from a competitive shootout when you're boatracing a team is a shit move. not sure what going for 2 to get 50 had to do with him breaking any records but definitely goes to show what they were after, rubbing the heel on a 1a team when you're playing with what appears to be a handpicked allstar team
Althoff…
- Thread starter rjjtwest
- Start date
Or...your head coach acts like he's been there before and puts the younger kids in as a show of respect for those kids and the opponents.
no the obvious choice is to go for two to seal the 50, then score with the ones again anyway. what a joke
Yeah, I usually defend playing hard to the end, not taking a knee just to punt, etc. But going for 2 in that position and then throwing the ball for a TD with your first stringers...give me a break. Embarrassing behavior.
Feeto says it best - this is the finals. Everyone is there for a reason. All other games had huge margins and the starters played until the end. Steven Brown got some touches, the #3 back. Others got in too - just maybe not every freshman or sophomore.
Sorry dude, coming from a guy who said esl is an underachieving program, any football related critiques you have arent worth 2 rusty nickels.
I can get behind trying to break a record. That doesn’t explain the deep shot TD throw, but that kid is special and his name belongs in record books.
I will say that there was definitely a feeling that Althoff was trying to rub Lena’s nose in it. But it’s football and you play to the whistle and the final tick. My only concern would have been protecting Hill from a late shot or something because Althoff was definitely showboating and pissing them off.

the "record chasing" was preceded by going for 2 to go to 50, and context is valuable. going for 2 at 48 is an indicator of poor sportmanship, which was followed by what you're defending. bit of an if/then here and taking a small logical leap to connect the two is all that's needed
Yea I hate this crowd that comes out after a team is playing for state and up by, in their opinion, a big enough margin to let 2nd string guys in. If there is anyone the coach needs to do right by, it's the seniors that got him there. And he damn sure shouldn't be worried about how the other team feels.
Another view ... the sophomore QB is being recruited on both sides of the river and you want to keep him happy so he stays.
lmao the school's enrollment is what, 5% power 4 football players? sure rub lena's nose in it
This is Fraizier's first four-year class. He inherited a crappy program and these kids turned it around.
because if you can't defend that, then the following touchdown is indefensible. simple if then, like i said.
Where is the outrage for the rest of the games with larger margins of victory?
you can see me complaining about it in another thread, thanks for asking. i'm pretty sure i said "it's an unmitigated disaster"
Lena (L.-Winslow) v Belleville (Althoff Catholic): 57-14 = MoV = 43
Palos Heights (Chicago Christian) v Maroa (M.-Forsyth) - 47-0 = MoV 47
Lombard (Montini) v Monticello - 49-8 = MoV 41

going for 3 for 3 and possibly 4 for 4 on blowouts from unmultiplied privates schools could end up having disastrous consequences on the setup most of us know and love, with one more private guaranteed to win and two others heavily favored
I thought going for 2 was unnecessary. And probably the deep ball too.
Im also 100% ok with them giving dierre as many touches as he needed to break the records that were within reach.
The two aren't mutually exclusive
Bu wasn't going for 2 when he is up by 20/30/40.. huge difference and he was defin substituting.
best comment i saw was act like a HC who has been there before
Look at the scores and look at the times. And again, the sophomore back up got carries and touches. The line rotated guys - defense too.
Hill ran in a pair of two-point conversions for 46 individual points, a state championship game record for all classes.
When you need to attract students too keep the doors open, some young man may want to match that feat. And Dierre deserved his chance to stamp his name in the books.
distasteful, and a springboard for a hard look at playoff structure this offseason, taking advantage of being unmultiplied to run up the score against an overmatched team for an individual record.
pretending that "you too could score 46 points in the state championship game" is even mentioned when recruiting kids, when you're saying "in the 2025 class we sent scholarship players to oregon, mizzou and boston college" is such a disingenuous way to defend this
HIckey's little cousin, a freshman, needs to have goals too. He already has SEC offers from Mizzou and Arkansas.
and you've conveniently ignored half my comments mentioning those being an issue. either you're too far in the bag to see them or just being disingenuous again, but none of those margin of victories were going for two twice in a blowout, going for garbage time tds with the ones, etc, for one player to pad stats
Hey Dierre, i know we rode you all year and we wouldn't be here without you. And you single handedly won us this game today. And I know you are a couple touches away from 3 state records but we are going to pull you for the sophomore. I think it's important we get him some carries here.
TALK ABOUT A DICK MOVE!
His comments come with an extreme amount of bias here. He's likely got ptsd from his team getting boatraced by 50 and wishing someone would have called off the dogs on his team too.
A school that produces someone dumb enough to say this probably should close.
