Nobody “turning” just think a good coach got run out and am curious as to why. Admin speak is always double talk.

By the end of the game, I’m not sure Penn even had 15 able-bodied players left on either defense or special teams.

I was thinking Rodney, but Bobref will do. I've got Penn winning 10-7 in overtime with 15 players on defense. But that's only if they have 15 on the kickoff team and the punt team. If special teams are even up, I'll give you your 14 points.

@Bobref?

May need a second opinion here. Can I call a friend?

Nah, Penn could have had 15 players on the field on defense that night and still lost by 14.

No chance of scoring 100 though. If the snow was falling, we're probably talking 28-14.

So it would have been 47-7.

Agree. Therefore, the state championship should be played on a grass field near Lake Michigan somewhere.

Always entertaining when the Catholics turn on one another. 😂

No argument from me on that.

I’ve posted this on here multiple times and will again since it seems Penn fans can now comfortably joke about it. Warren could’ve scored 100 that night.

Or they just use parentheses. Carroll (Fort Wayne) or Carroll (Flora). Carroll(Fort Wayne) sits just outside city limits, so they don't get the Fort Wayne Carroll label. The high school itself has a Fort Wayne address, but many of their students have a Huntertown address.

Look at it this way. If they cut the state in half that year, Penn would have been state champions.

Recruiting news: Castle’s Patterson has switched his commitment to Cincinnati! Going to join the Bearcats in the Big 12.

Well it doesn't matter, now one was getting beat 57-7....unless Penn was playing in the game.

Yes, when you live in the city in which the school resides you will typically just use the name of the school. In media and when talking to people who are not always familiar with the schools around the state, using Indianapolis, South Bend or Fort Wayne helps the lay person know where in the state we are talking about. I believe there is a South Bend Washington and a Washington HS.... If someone just posted a topic saying....OMG did you see what happened at Washington over the weekend? most people will probably think uh oh something happened in South Bend...but the thread could be about the 4A school in southern Indiana. Plus Harrell's website lists the schools from those towns above with the city name in it.

Is “philosophical differences” code for “wouldn’t play the rich donor’s kid”?

Oh, it was initially. He must've caved to the masses. The "southpaw" joke isn't as much fun if I have to explain it.

This link doesn't appear to be behind a paywall: https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/columnists/gregg-doyel/2024/04/17/caitlin-clark-im-so-sorry-on-wednesday-i-was-part-of-the-problem/73364922007/

LOL. It was. Branson Combs hit about 5 of them...

The only thing slowing BD down is the grass. You get them in the perfect indoor environment, and it's lights out. I'll argue day and night that turf favors the faster team. I think Westfield would have suffered the same fate at Crown Point. I could be wrong, just my take.

Yes, it did. Yes, IMHO it does. Doesn't make him any less of a jerk sometimes, though. Wait, so we lefties are now a protected class? When did that happen?

Oh, you mean his "apology" that was behind a paywall?

Epic.
