To celebrate the 100-year anniversary of Reitz Football’s first city championship, the Panthers will once more don their original school colors. The Blue & Gray will be put away for the Central game and Reitz will sport the Purple & Orange for the first time in almost a century. “I vividly remember watching that game in 1923,” remarked Mike Whicker, local author and former Reitz teacher and coach. “It was the first time we beat Central and it was a huge upset.” The idea came from Cory Brunson, the Panthers’ head coach. “Before there was the Blue & Gray, I remember hearing the stories about the Panthers playing in Purple & Gold. I wanted to bring that back, if only for one night.” He said the plan is to only use the alternate colors for the Central game, but could use them again for other special circumstances.

Have heard multiple rumors from both sides. Some saying HCC legitimately wants Carmel in their conference and other schools stating they want nothing to do with them. Still thinking that MIC schools will eventually realize they made a huge mistake. They’ve messed up and eventually will NEED them back. As far as the relationship between Carmel and CG, well you know how I feel.

Not that I think we’d disagree on this, but I’d point out that in the “Big Sports” the HCC has caught up with Carmel. Would the hounds dominate most of the other sports?? Probably…especially swimming (and tennis?). But HCC schools seem to be right there with Carmel in Football & Basketball

I don’t think anyone realizes that more than her … and she’s cashing in on it. Good for her! Fama caduca est (Fame is fleeting.)

Another example of The Law of Unintended Consequences. Doubt anyone saw this sort of thing coming. https://www.outkick.com/olivia-dunne-lsu-instagram-tiktok-nil-valuation/ OLIVIA DUNNE SEES MASSIVE NIL VALUATION BOOST, RANKS 3RD IN AMERICA by DAVID HOOKSTEADMarch 30, 2023, 10:24 am Olivia Dunne’s profile is only rising with every passing day. In 2022, On3 gave the LSU gymnast an NIL valuation of $2.3 million. That was already among the highest in America. Well, the rich often get richer, and Dunne definitely is an exception to that rule in life. In the latest On3 NIL valuations, the social media superstar has a valuation of $3.4 million. That’s third in America. Only Bronny James and Arch Manning are ranked ahead of her. Caleb Williams, who won the Heisman in 2022, has a valuation of $800,000 less at $2.6 million. Think about that for a moment. Olivia Dunne is viewed as more marketable than arguably the most marketable Heisman winner college football has had in years. Olivia Dunne remains unstoppable. In case you didn’t already know, Olivia Dunne is a force to be reckoned with in the online content game. In terms of female college athletes, nobody can hold a light to her. That’s why she has the highest valuation among female college athletes in the country. She has 11.1 million followers between TikTok and Instagram. She’s not just popular. The LSU gymnast is an online star – as well as a very good athlete. Olivia Dunne has massive NIL valuation.

Women’s coach Kim Mulkey earns roughly $2.5 million annually. Only Brian Kelly earns more than Dunne on LSU’s campus at nearly $10 million a year. She has the second-highest earning ceiling for people associated with LSU’s athletic department, and she’s not even legally old enough to buy a beer. Olivia Dunne is a massive star online. (Photo by Alex Goodlett/Getty Images) We all knew the NIL era was going to usher in some athletes getting very rich and Olivia Dunne isn’t an exception. She’s cashing in, and counting stacks of money. You can hate on NIL all you want (don’t be that kind of person), but you can’t hate on the player. This is America, and Olivia Dunne is getting her cash. That’s something all capitalists should support.

“If Carmel and Center Grove can figure out a way to be adults again” Point of clarification: CG isn’t the one that took its ball and went home.
