Guess I will have to add them to the list of schools I will not patronize. How many kids have bank cards?

I have heard updates on scrimmages about NV, Covington and FC. NV - qb is pretty good. They move the ball on almost everyone in their scrimmage. They have close to 30 kids out which is a huge comparing to last year. Crum seems to know what he is doing as the Falcons may not be as bad as everyone is thinking. Covington - look to be a dark horse and could see this team finishing behind RP in the conference. They have the athletes to beat anyone but RP. Times are changing Covington will not be a basketball school anymore. Coach Wheeler is doing the right things. FC - the younger Foxworthy brother is playing qb and looks legit. This team would have been scary good if the older Foxworthy did not get hurt. Happy people around FC right now.. we'll see how long that lasts.

For those of us in the football world, that is a pace of 5.05 seconds for the 40. And there are 44 40s in a mile.

At a pace of 16.2 miles per hour……incredible.

Every year I think 😁

Imitation is Flattery Per Joe Smith. He told me once I should go on the air. I give a "Well Don Let Me Tell Ya!" about once a week. I have known Joe all my life. He called ball games when I was in high school. He had me on with "Balls and Strikes" once and he called a number of games as a coach. When the South Siders, Edgewood, or Bloomington North came to town, I would always come out for pregame early so I could make the climb to the press box to say hello and catch up. Rest In Peace my friend! And Let Me Tell You! Gone But Never Forgotten! Your Friend MD

Much of what the show was discussing. Ciggy was on right after the announcement.

Just a sign of where IU football is now. 3 years ago, not a chance in Hell!!!

If y'all here of anything let me know. I am slowly putting my 2026 schedule together, and I am hoping to cover at least 100 games again this season.

At a High School football game? What a shame. I dont need rationale but thanks anyway.

I'll bet those houses besides the field are hopping on Friday nights. Looks nice!

Monshun Sales just committed to IU on the PMS show.

Hearing a lot of good things coming out of Northridge Camp and also some new additions to the roster. Look for big improvements from the Raiders under coach Amstutz. Also hearing the same out of Northwood's camp.

There's nothing that jumps out with North Side as far as a "program" is concerned. That's reserved for schools in NE Indiana like Adams Central, Bishop Dwenger, Bishop Luers, Carroll, East Noble, and Snider...........they've earned it. I will say that North Side has a passionate coach, so best of luck to him. I think the the following resources justify at least a small amount of pre-season hype. Fort Wayne's always been a D1 football factory, but to see this level of talent at North Side is a first for this program, hence the attention it's getting. https://outsidethehuddle.net/2026/06/22/class-of-2028-top-area-prospects/ https://outsidethehuddle.net/2026/02/10/class-of-2027-top-area-prospects/ https://www.on3.com/high-school/north-side-legends-fort-wayne-in-14125/football/roster/

Last sentence of your prior post?

For context, you aren’t the only person that has hyped them up. You’re the first I’ve seen that has mentioned the number of D1 recruits they have though. Maybe someone else has mentioned it and I’ve missed it.

A few more power outlets in the press box would be nice LOL!

I think your issue is that it's been mentioned several times, by me, that North Side had one of the best teams in 5A in 2022. Outside of that, it's been more of............."they're a dangerous program that other teams shouldn't sleep on." If memory serves me correctly, weren't they tied with #1 Concord last year at halftime? Then spent most the second half just one touchdown behind? See what I'm saying here? Disclaimer: I'm not a North Side fan...........at all. For reasons I'd rather not post here. PM's are welcome. I just think having six guys with D1 offers, potentially eight, is worth mentioning in a thread. Maybe someone else should step up to the plate and provide content on this forum. If there was any content at all, I probably wouldn't have even started this thread. I didn't think it was a bad off season topic.

It looks very nice, but new lights is by far the biggest improvement.

Nothing is wrong with it unless it becomes a pattern. Then it just gets old. I love seeing new teams in the mix of things at the end. It’s way more interesting to me than seeing the same old teams every year. However, when teams constantly get hyped but never come close to the expectations, it starts to feel like the boy who cried wolf. Maybe this is the year it’s actually legit. I hope so. But they really need to follow through on it because it’s getting old. Just my two cents.

Baseball Is Being Watched More Than Ever. But Fewer People Are Falling in Love With It.: https://reason.com/2026/07/16/baseball-is-being-watched-more-than-ever-but-fewer-people-are-falling-in-love-with-it/ Meh, gambling will eventually destroy Baseball, and tackle Football is next.

Possibly. That hasn't been revealed yet. So far most of the sentiments I have heard from Frankfort citizens regarding has been less than positive.

If they could put a good team together in 2022, perhaps they can put a more talent rich one together in 2026? I get what you and @Komets2727 are saying..........."show me on the field." But what fun is the pre-season without hyping up the lessor programs and making a few bold predictions?
