    Is the game going to be on the radio?

    Correct. I think the root of the issue is that he was really the only guy available for the job at the time who checked some of the boxes and also wanted it. Scott Bauer would've made a ton of sense, but he never wanted the job.

    Is the game going to be on the radio?

    Exactly right. It's an overall culture and program issue. It's the head coaches fault for not having good assistants, and the principals fault for nothing having the right head coach. I completely agree with everyone who said that Alco didn't get better as a team from Week 1 until the end...

    Is the game going to be on the radio?

    True, I couldn't get The Station You Can Count On (WCBC) to load at all, either.. and I just turned on WTBO stream and am currently on consecutive ad #6 while the game is going on. This is a complete circus.

    Is the game going to be on the radio?

    You're not kidding... Jesus these guys are brutal to listen to. Is broadcasting talent in the Cumberland area really this bad?

    FH-ALCO Homecoming

    No shot. Decatur's head coach will probably step aside soon so he can travel to watch his kid play in college, so Todd has likely been maneuvering for that job. Plus, Heidi is retiring soon and there's no way Todd would gamble on inheriting another principal who didn't hire him.

    FH-ALCO Homecoming

    I agree, it could be done in theory, but that's where Hansel comes in. A good head coach recruits good assistants, coaches alongside them and lets them coach their position and/or side of the ball. That hasn't happened. I think there are plenty of former Alco players that would help out if...

    FH-ALCO Homecoming

    You're right, he did hire all the guys on his staff. But Cumberland has less than 19,000 people and a few thousand others living in the surrounding area. That's way too small of a talent pool to go find a bunch of good, qualified and willing guys who are willing to put the time into being...

    FH-ALCO Homecoming

    The real issue for us is the lack of solid assistant coaches. They don't have anyone in the building on staff. There's a couple of OK guys there, but FH has a very legitimate staff behind Zack. Alco has the players this season to give FH a better game than they did yesterday, but Hansel can't...

    Anyone know if the game will be broadcast on WCBC?

    Just for the fun of it…Some of the Best Players in Allegany County History…

    Shawn Ricker, a late 80's Tight End at Alco was a big time player as well. Played D2 at WV Wesleyan, was a key player on at least one state championship team and if I'm not wrong, was Area POY as a TE. That's not easy to do. FH-wise, my favorites will always include Mike Hast, the...

    allegany

    I agree that it wasn't the same FH team that showed up for round 2 - FH was different in 2 ways: they had a very good game plan, and their kids really showed up to play. I disagree that the same Alco team showed up. First, their game plan looked different, and second, they absolutely lost the...

    allegany

    I agree with you a lot. It seems to me that Alco has a coaching problem among assistants more than the head coach. But even if I'm right about that, it's still the head coach's fault because he's ultimately the one responsible. I've thought for a while now that our assistants were nowhere...

    Current area rankings

    Great points by each post here. 1-2 are FH and Ridge, should be a really good rematch, assuming that's what will happen. From an Alco standpoint, 4R341 I totally agree. I've been able to stream parts of some of their games over the past couple weeks. Really like what I saw from the O-Line...

    Fort Hill Opinions?!

    Your vagueness is impressing us all, but don't worry. I will NOT steal your moment from you. Major culture problem at Alco, unfortunately :(

    Allegany County Football

    All good points. I don't know if this is a factor, but I mentioned it last year at some point too: the ratio of coaches at FH, Alco and Ridge who are and aren't county educators is an interesting stat to me. My guess is FH has the most coaches on staff who are at least teachers in the county...

    Allegany County Football

    Trying to help out your conversion rate here, rave. FH and Ridge are definitely the best in the area until Allegany beats either one of them, which I still don't see us being able to do quite yet. It would take either of the former to play a pretty sloppy game and Alco to play very well to and...

    Very well said, for obvious reasons. And yes, this is a March - early July topic, Dorito.

    Alco/FH

    "What are the players suppose to think?" They should think: "Wow - life's not fair. Maybe I should work harder, find ways to get better, make sure I understand how I can earn snaps and get on the field, commit to special teams, always be ready to start, be prepared for injuries and anything...
