    Colerain, Wayne and St. Edward will finish in the top 50 in the country. With the State Champ finishing in the top ten.

    If LaSalle can win they could also finish top 50.

    www.nationalhsfootball.com

    They use 6 different media ranks. maxpreps, usa today, HSFB100, PrepNation, Freeman Computer and JFAM.

    It is a mythical ranking so to speak, but the kids enjoy the attention.

    There are a couple local sites that use formulas for predicting scores and margins of victory.

    Don't see the national rankings on that VYPE site.

    On the following "MaxPreps Freeman Rankings," looks like they have my school at #23 and we'll be playing #5 in the Baylor's Toilet Bowl Saturday. Should be fun.

    Why does Massillon suck these days (or decades)?

    Massilion Perry made the big dance. Not easy.

    First, note: Massillon HS and Massillon Perry are not the same school.

    And the reason is simple and complex at the same time: Massillon is actually known as Massillon Washington and is the public school in Massillon. Massillon is a working class town....and the loss of industry over the last 30-40 years hit the city hard....including its school finances. Combine that with loss of population to suburbs (like Perry Twp), losses to parochial schools (like CCC) and it just does not have the resources it once had.

    Things are similar in the Akron school district. Once, Akron Garfield HS produced outstanding teams and talents....like Dave Brown, Antoine Winfield, Whitney Mercilus, Chris Beanie Wells, Thomas Lewis, and if you remember him, Charles Gladman.

    Now, most of the football talent in Akron seems to end up at either StVStM or Hoban (and.....needless to say...basketball talent: LeBron)

    Do you think if some of these failing public school had a different infrastructure or different source of funding they would improve on and off the field?

    And yes Massillon is a mess.

    Well, you get into a whole other morass when you get into school funding methods. The Ohio Supreme Court declared the current method of school financing unconstitutional like 20 years ago.....and nothing has been done since.

    I know they're different. But don't they have the massive indoor facility? Was that donated by some outside source? If not (and it was the community that paid for it), then I think it's fair to say there are a decent amount of resources there, so I don't get it. There are lots of towns in Texas that have been ravaged by this and that but have still kept their football tradition.

    I am not sure about Massillon's indoor facilities. I have never actually been to the school itself. Massillon Tiger Stadium is huge though.....seats at least 25-30K. They have often held the Ohio HS championship games there ...along with Canton Fawcett Stadium.

    Which, by the way, I understand is being completely rebuilt.

    I think the Browns were using Massillon's indoor facility for awhile.

    Btw, DOWN GOES ALLEN!! 57 game win streak and 3 consecutive titles all over.

    Not in my lifetime...and I am 63...they may have used Balwin-Wallace College facilities....B-W being in Berea.

    What's this? Texas HS ball?

    Yep. Longest winning streak in Texas 5A/6A history. In 2012 Allen put sophomore QB Kyler Murray in in the 4th or 5th game because they were struggling. They lost that night but Murray went on to go 43-0 as a starter. Pretty much the undisputed greatest Texas HS player of all time.

    The streak continued without Murray with a 14-0 start this year, but my Chaps took it to them Friday night. 23-17 final and it was 23-3 going into the 4th. I just hope we don't have an emotional hangover at the state championship Saturday.
