Mizzou Tigers (official thread)

"What the heck kind of score is that for a 48 minute football Game, somebody should wake those kids and tell em to get their butts moving? "

Some insight from somebody that attended the game...
Mauk exited the game sometime in the middle of the 3rd quarter with his roughly 510 yards passing and 50 yards rushing. Threw for 4 scores and ran for 3 I believe. The coaches agreed to put 8 mins. on the clock for the 4th quarter due it being only JV's at that point and such an overmatched game for the visitors. Kenton's JV team (Frosh QB very promising as well) then drove down to the 1 yard line with 4 downs to get a yard, Coach Mauk had the QB take a knee 4 times in a great act of sportsmanship. I personally would have let them score due to the fact that it was the JV's in there. Backup QB had around 120 passing as well in the 1.5 quarters that he was in.

This is a very high octane offense with a couple of great receivers that will possibly go DI. One will for sure, Morrison, led the state in nearly every receiving category last year as a JR. If you have a chance to get to Kenton and see these boys play, you will most likely NOT be dissappointed.

From this week's game:

Cougs run into Kenton's high-powered offense and fall, 70-34 - Times Bulletin - Van Wert, Ohio

It did not take long for the Cougars defense to see what they were going to be up against with the Kenton high octane offense. The Wildcats took the opening kickoff, marching straight down the field with their five-wide, no-huddle attack. All-state quarterback Maty Mauk picked apart the Van Wert defense and did not allow even a called back touchdown to slow the drive. He finally punched it in himself with a nine-yard scamper up the middle, getting hit at the goal line on fourth and nine and landing in the end zone for the score and an 8-0 Kenton lead only 3:01 into the game.

Van Wert took the short kickoff back to their own 46-yard line where they picked up a first down off of a fourth and inches when running back Connor Massillo went over the left side of the line for eight yards. But on third and nine, Van Wert picked up a delay of game call and then missed on a pass play. The punt squibbed off the side of the kicker's foot for only a one-yard punt, giving Kenton a short field.

The Wildcat offense was too good to give that kind of advantage and only 38 seconds later on a busted play, Mauk scrambled around until he found split end Dustin Howell behind the defense for a 39-yard scoring catch and a 16-0 lead.

The Cougars could not move the ball and punted away after a three-and-out. Kenton's offense wasted no time striking again. After Van Wert's Austin Reichert dropped Mauk for a ten-yard loss on a sack, the junior quarterback hit Andrew Tillman for a 46-yard catch and run. With a fourth-and-one at the Van Wert five-yard line, Mauk let his feet do the damage again as he ran the ball into the end zone for a 24-0 score with more than a minute left in the first quarter.

Despite being down by a large margin, the Cougars never quit. After collecting the kickoff with only 1:01 left, Massillo busted through the left side of the line, bounced to the outside and raced down the left sideline for 54 yards before being knocked out of bounds. He carried the ball again for six yards down to the one and then punched it over on the next snap for a three-play, 57-second drive and a 24-6 score.

Despite the effort, the game spun out of control for Van Wert in the second quarter. A punt snap sailed out of the endzone for a safety, Mauk scored again with his feet and he threw for touchdowns from 10, 15 and 28 yards.

Maty Mauk was 27 of 36 throwing the ball for 504 yards, five touchdowns and no interceptions. He also ran nine times for 43 yards and three touchdowns. Freshman Grant Sherman came off the bench and threw 14 times with seven completions for 99 yards in relief. Max Morrison was the biggest beneficiary of the throwing with nine catches for 222 yards and two touchdowns. Andrew Tillman (six for 121 yards) and Dustin Howell (eight catches for 89 yards and a touchdown) also had big nights. Overall, the Wildcats racked up 669 yards of offense.

I have wondered, what is Maty's disposition toward OSU? His brother Ben, grew up a TSUN fan, and after the state title game was quoted as saying he would take an offer from Bowling Green over an OSU offer. I somehow doubt Ben ever thought about running for Governor.

AROUND OHIO 2010

Years ago, John McCallister wrote a column for a magazine called Scarlet & Gray Illustrated. The column was called "Around The State" and every week he wrote about college prospects that he had seen play the week prior. At times, he also offered insight to other areas of high school football recruiting. The column was successful, but the magazine was not. Around Ohio with MSR is an attempt to offer a different informative source to readers.

Maty Mauk - A True Spread Offense Quarterback

Evaluating Maty Mauk, junior quarterback from Kenton, is sometimes difficult for me. For you see, I watched him crawl over McDonald's booths as an eight year old to now as sixteen year old, leading the highly successful Kenton offense, under the direction of his dad, Mike Mauk. I may be his worst critic.

Mauk's strengths are his quick release and strong arm. Sometimes he drops down to almost sidearm, but his powerful wrist is always evident. In Kenton's offense, it is often hard to get his feet set, but when he does and can step, his arm strength for the 17 yard out and deep ball (70 yds) is excellent. A 21 foot long jumper in the spring, Maty has the burst. Also has both the quickness to make the defender miss, and the power to run through a defender.

National Player of the Year Watch - MaxPreps News

Maty Mauk, QB, Kenton (Ohio)
Team record: 6-1
Last weekend: The nation's leading passer according to statistics submitted to MaxPreps.com, Mauk was prolific through the air once again in a 58-14 win over Celina, hitting on 29 of 38 passes for 497 yards and five touchdowns.
Season: The 6-2, 185-pound junior has thrown for 3,211 yards and 38 touchdowns (versus just eight picks) while completing nearly 70 percent of his pass attempts. He is on pace to top 4,500 yards in the regular season and would be a solid bet for 5,000 should Kenton play even one postseason game.

If anyone has seen both the Mauk brothers play, I would like to know if Maty, has the arm strength and accuracy of brother Ben?

the answer to that question is no not all all. Ben was and is a better player than Maty. He looked horrible last night don't know if it was because it was a little cooler or if my bulldogs stepped up their game a little bit.

He has a good release and good arm but the accuracy was not there. The recievers had to really go after some of his throws. Too low, high sort of thing. I don't know what his numbers were from last night but they only had 50 on the score board at the end of the 3rd. You might say only 50 come on, well they should have scored at least close to 80 on my home town but they didn't.
