Herbstreit 2008 field: Update

The 2008 Kirk Herbstreit Challenge (football) continues to take shape. Here is the latest from a recent conversation with Jim Herbstreit, father of Kirk and prime matchmaker for the event:

--The Cincinnati games tentatively are Aug. 30-31 at Paul Brown Stadium, which is a switch from the UC Nippert Stadium venue the past two years.


--St. Xavier, Colerain, Moeller, Elder, Middletown, Lakota West and Huber Heights Wayne will play in the PBS event.


--East St. Louis (Ill.) has replaced Rockhurst (Mo.) in the PBS event. Also coming to Cincinnati, pending final agreements, are Chicago St. Rita, Prattville (Ala.), Warren Central (Indianapolis), Montgomery Bell (Nashville, Tenn.), St. Thomas Aquinas (Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.) and McKeesport (Pa.).


--In the upstate (Canton) portion of the event, teams will include Canton McKinley, Massillon, Youngstown Cardinal Mooney, Steubenville, Woodland Hills (Pa.), Jordan (Utah), John Curtis (La.) and Indianapolis Cathedral.


--Matchups are still being ironed out and some contracts still need to be signed. We'll keep you posted, as event organizers hope to have this wrapped up soon.

I would love to See My parents high school play JC! (Massillon). My dad said we are flying up for the Rivalry game between Canton MCK and Massillon this year, so might as well fly up for this one also!

The West Monroe people say that WM was contacted by these people but could not guarantee a game so WM elected to look elsewhere....Dallas maybe?

I guess we will wait and see....

A Curtis and Massillon match-up would be nice though....

I don't know who WM would play. Carroll is booked on Zero Week and is already starting district on Week 6, when WM is open.

Maybe HP or Trinity if they need a game? Or else maybe Celina?

I know this is off topic of the herbie thing, but Celina should play Buford (GA)

celina could play most teams above it's classification.
