MACtion baby!

Big loss for East Noble football. Building a good culture is a real thing and he did a very good job of doing that

What a great opportunity for someone!! He's done a great job for EN football

Coach Amstutz has done a great job at East Noble. This move creates a great opportunity for someone lucky enough to get this job.

More money. Less pressure. Really good football coach he was and a great program he was building.

Wow, pretty big opening up there

I like the Texas model just because it is settled on the field. Your typical 4A-1A sectional would play round robin for 7 games then they would get 2 non-sectional games. I would take the top 4 from each sectional and take the top 4 from say section 17 and Sectional 18 and play an 8 team tournament. Where the #1 from 17 would play the #4 from 18. And so on. Then the tourney would go from there. The bottom four from the sectionals would play a "bowl" game for week 10. Where the #5's from sectional 17 and 18 play and so on. While the tourney teams get a bye week to prepare for their tourney and also they would get to still play on Thanksgiving. At least it would be settled on the field where it should be not by a computer or some weird algorithm that no one would be able to understand. As for the 5A and 6A. They could make it the top two in each sectional but then they would need to have two bye weeks in the tourney to play on Thanksgiving. I say let all the big schools in and give them one bye week. But still play the top team in sectional 1 vs the bottom team in sectional 2 and so on to begin the tourney.

I'm agnostic so far as the tournament's format is concerned, but nobody should indulge this type of thinking––especially not from coaches. The idea that there is nothing to play for once you cannot win any type of championship is shameful.
