ECHS05 Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Its that time of the year!!! Im releasing Week 0 games early, to give everyone time to do plenty of research with no previous games to rely on for help with predictions. Not every state starts up this week, but theres still a ton of great games to pick from. All weeks will have between 12-18 games. This year is L-o-a-d-e-d with excellent games. ****Also, Im releasing the games early because We Need A Scorekeeper ... We all know THS2011 was our scorekeeper last year and he did a great job but I haven't noticed him on the forum in quite a while ... We may need a new one unless he shows up soon, which he very well may do once the Shamrocks kick off their season. **** (All games are on 8/17(Friday) unless otherwise noted) Week 0 Pick 'Em Games: (8/16-8/18) Chandler AZ @ Corona Centennial CA Perry AZ @ Pinnacle AZ Folsom CA @ De La Salle CA Chaminade CA @ Oaks Christian CA (8/16) Narbonne CA @ St. Louis HI (@ Aloha Stadium) Marietta GA @ Rome GA (8/16) Archer GA vs. Milton GA (@ Georgia St. Stadium/Turner Field) Colquitt Co. GA vs. McEachern GA (8/18 ; @ Mercedes-Benz Stadium) Trinity (Louisville) KY @ Carmel IN Noxubee Co. MS @ Starkville MS Harding University NC @ Hough NC Dutch Fork SC @ Mallard Creek NC (8/18) Fort Dorchester SC @ Glynn Academy GA Bingham UT @ Orem UT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Columbiafan Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Hey @ECHS05 I'll make you a deal If you can get me at least 10 people (preferably more) to sign up for the FL pickems I'm trying to get set up this season over here then I'll fill in as scorekeeper if @THS2011 doesn't show up in time I did keep score doing that national tournament thing the past 2 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECHS05 Posted August 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 There will be more guys show up in the next week or 2 when football season really gets here ... You should have 10 by then, as we are still 2 weeks out... 3 weeks for Florida. I would definitely prefer THS, as he has done a great job the past 2 seasons ... But we'll see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that i was just offering myself up as a backup option if needed As for games above i have a rough guess on my picks but I'm going to hold off on a few till that week Also since you a GA guy i have quick question Did Marietta lose any of their current players to that forfeit thing?

Sorry, let me clarify. A poster on the GA board says the two transfers could remain ineligible depending in their appeal. (The Woodward and Carrollton kids) He went on to mention that their RB and a CB are leaving the team and WR Burton is transferring out. Idk if any of this is true, but it would be a huge blow to their roster, if so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went to Marietta, transferred to IMG, then back to Marietta this Preseason, and now apparently out again? ... Maybe he cant handle the pressure of playing for a quality team.... If they lose RB Kimani Vidal , thatd be huge. Itd suck for them to lose a CB also... As the secondary was their weak spot last year. They need to hang onto their DBs. This makes Marietta a real question mark... The season is almost upon us, they need to get that mess figured out soon, its a little late for kids to be tramsferring in and out at this point. I know Arik Gilbert & Dawson Ellington are Woodward kids.... But surely they are fine. Those would be HUGE losses, especially Gilbert... being a 5* and the #1 ATH in the 2020 class.

ECHS05 Posted August 5, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Apparently the 4* WR Jermaine Burton is leaving for Hoover AL. Oh well ... He wasnt on last years team, theyll be fine without him. (This is 100% a rumor until confirmed) They are saying the 4* RB Kimani Vidal has left the team, but his twitter is still plastered with Marietta stuff. Looks like hes a Woodward Academy transfer. (Also 100% rumor) Ok after checking, the safety from Carrollton thats ineligible is 3* Rashad Torrence.... Obviously hes appealing. Dawson Ellington may be the CB from Woodward. If so thats BIG time... Marietta is being gutted. Like I said... IF SO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THS2011 Posted August 6, 2018 Report Share Posted August 6, 2018 I'm here. Just been lurking till there's something to talk about (season starts). If someone wants to take over they can. If no one else wants to (has more time on their hand), i'll do it again. 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do a much better job then i could i was only offering myself as a backup Plus I will have to do scorekeeper for the FL pickems as well as still manage my weekly rankings so if there is someone else able to run score for pickems I ain't standing in the way 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CCBlackhatter Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 Glad you could confirm they are rumors. Maybe you guys will win a game or two this year. I would've hated to see so much effort made by parents to relocate their families just to have a mediocre season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps his parents can hire an attorney and sue the GHSA for enforcing their by laws. Just a few hours ago it was a rumor he was leaving and now you say there is a witch hunt involving him? His family should get a discount from Uhaul with all that moving. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
