This is a bit off topic, but Brady Allen threw a touchdown pass in the Spring Game this past weekend. Just a Purdue fan happy that a local kid may have a shot at QB in a year or two....Boiler Up!

A few changes from what we had expected ... Bishop Chatard listed in Class 3A (instead of success bump to 4A). Adjustment in Culver Academies' enrollment pushes them to 4A. River Forest was on the 2A/3A line, they go up to 3A. Class changes New in 6A Zionsville (up) Jeffersonville (up) FW Northrop (up) Cathedral (up-success) New in 5A Chesterton (down) Merrillville (down) FW Snider (down) Hammond Morton (up) New in 4A Kokomo (down) Bedford NL (down) New Palestine (down) Ind. Washington (up) Ev. Bosse (up) Brebeuf (up) Edgewood (up) SB Washington (up) New in 3A Delta (down) SB Clay (down) Madison (down) South Dearborn (down) Ind. Chatard (down) Griffith (down) Purdue Poly - Indy (new) Woodlan (up) Speedway (up) Fairfield (up) Monrovia (up) Boone Grove (up) Western Boone (up) New in 2A Benton Central (down) Brown County (down) Ind. Ritter (down) Brownstown (down) Greencastle (down) Sullivan (down) Churubusco (up) Lake Station (up) Winamac (up) New in 1A North Newton (down) Gary Bowman (down) Dugger Union (new) NOTE: FW Dwenger (5A) and Lafayette Catholic (2A) will be reevaluated and possibly moved back down a class if they do not win a sectional title this upcoming year.

Edgewood moved from 3A to 4A and Bedford North Lawrence moved from 5A down to 4A. They have to go somewhere. Northview could stay in S24 and make it an 8 Teamer, but there still will be a bye somewhere in South between 21-24.

The cluster tie breaker OT one set of downs mid-week to get into the sectional two days later is the type of brainstorming scheme that only the IHSAA could have invented. In that masterplan, the season finale also played mid-week both cluster years. Coach Springer's Indy Washington team was really, really good (both 83 and 84). Seemed like true outsiders with little Indy media coverage and then pummeled North Central and Lars Tate (who got all the press coverage) in the regional. the last great Indy city public team. And they were undersized.

I'm hoping he redshirts.....that will mean more playing down the road. Hopefully the kid that shows up from Louisiana the following year doesn't change things. He is apparently a duel threat.

I just realized that. Must of hit the scroll wheel in the load.

COVID Stimulus Checks Worsened Inflation https://reason.com/2022/04/08/covid-stimulus-checks-worsened-inflation/ MMT doesn't work. This is proof positive.

That was actually the 3rd year of the post season. Mishawaka Marian was the 1st 1A champ.

Solid source.

They are going to make this a huge weekend long event, I bet. The e-mail I got from the University specifically mentioned the Tennessee State marching band, known as “The Aristocrat of Bands,” and they are really supposed to be something.

A teacher’s union is like any other large organization, be it a corporation, government, organized religion, etc. They all have, as their first principle, the perpetuation and prospering of the organization itself. All other purposes are subordinated to that one. There may be instances where that purpose and the “best interests of the kids” coincide, but it is just that: a coincidence.

Thank you. I don't recall ever hearing about a public sector teacher's union advocating the banning of books from school libraries. Do you have a link(s)? Also I'm wondering if book banning and book burning are functionally the same thing. Never really thought about it........... And I really don't think teacher's union necessarily want what is best for kids, some of these union's actions during the pandemic really highlight that IMHO. And you have to look at what the core mission of a public sector labor union is. It's too protect it's members above all else.
