Nope. They're allowed to play 22. That's not bad, although it used to be 24. Teams will be allowed to start play a week earlier next year.

Well Norwin would have finished 2nd maybe 3rd in the 5a section. They played Penn Trafford tough, beat Latrobe and Hempfield beat Franklin regional so to answer your question, yes I think they are well over .500 if they are playing strictly 5a teams
Mike White

Could they be .500 in 5A? Maybe. But please. You act like beating Latrobe and Hempfield are tremendous wins. Franklin Regional was 3-8 and Hempfield beat FR by 30-28. Latrobe was 3-7 and lost to Norwin by 31-28.

Which class doesn’t make it to Hershey from the wpial?
Mike White

I think there will be more than one.

Did you ever think you’d see McKeesport vs Aliquippa in a playoff game?

Did you ever think you'd see six classes in football?

Just curious who you like in the TJ/BV rematch?

Belle Vernon.

When do we see more forced mergers? Some of these schools are bleeding students and frankly it’s a waste of resources to have as many schools as we do around here. I understand the pride but it needs to happen
Mike White

I don't know. I'm not a judge. Those mergers are usually ordered by court judges.

Mike, help me understand why Kasper would want to return to PR? The district ran his name through the mud, there’s a pending lawsuit, and he’s establishing himself at U of Pitt. Is he more interested in his family (son is underclassman QB) vs career progression?
Mike White

Help me understand why wouldn't he? He likes coaching high school. You ever think he has a horrible taste in his mouth by being forced out the way he was? And maybe he'd like to go out on his own terms? You ever think maybe he'd like to come back, run the program again and maybe cast doubt on those bullying and hazing charges? You ever think that maybe he'd like to clear his name? And what's wrong with wanting to coach your son?

Mike, any insight in the Avonworth/NC Game? Avonworth has a couple nice athletes on offense, but NC defense has led the WPIAL in Shutouts- Whats the deciding factor you think?
Mike White
11:58
But NC gave up a lot of points last week. What happened there? I think it's close. I really think it's a tossup game.
11:59
OK, that hour flew by. But it was good. See y'all next Tuesday at 11 a.m.
