And now we have completed wrestling season before getting these teams. Maybe they’ll be released before baseball finishes.

He was a stud guard and linebacker for them. Reeve Muncie Carroll is going to play football at Saint Francis and is in the heavyweight finals.

Unless this pops this weekend, the we will have officially hit Valentines Day before putting the final stamp on football season.

Guess we aren’t having them this year. Oh well.

Is this week finally the week? This is ridiculous, we’re closer to Valentines Day than Thanksgiving. There’s no reason to wait two months to release all state teams.

You’re the one throwing the fit over a name change that a school did voluntarily.

No, the AP all state teams

When do the all state teams get released? It was released around this time last year. And why does it take over a month after our season is over to do these?

So you got one name popping up in a cornfield spanning 20+ years? Ok

As far as shifty and speed, never seen that before in high school. I don’t have too much history watching a lot of IN high school football, but Wilson’s the best I’ve seen. Which is annoying, I’ve seen people post to “get better” when that’s something that absolutely cannot just get better at. Yes, I’m sure Wilson works hard, but a lot of that is God given ability that doesn’t pop up much out in the cornfields.

I don’t care about them, they don’t has as much invested in their football program. Stud athletes aren’t looking at Park Tudor for football. Giving examples of small private schools that don’t attempt to be great at football is a weak excuse for the CCs, Lutherans, and Luers of the world. Saying Park Tudor struggles doesn’t take away the fact of CCs advantage. And what difference does it mean to Park Tudor if they also go 2A? They’ll lose the same games there too.

The issue as it pertains to the broad subject is that CC had an opportunity to get a kid of Wilson’s caliber at all due to being an Indy school and still compete at 1A. Yes, south adams has got some kids moved in over the years, but at best they are all ACAC or even honorable mention all state players coming from other small town communities. Wilson was one of the best running backs I’ve ever seen, and he was playing 1A. You have to be delusional to think private schools in metro areas have the same 1A limitations that the county 1A schools of Indiana have. And I am not saying CC recruits, they just happen to have a larger pool of potential players than an SA does, and still gets to be 1A.

There is not near enough members from the 1A title game. I can be a homer and say not enough Starfires on here, but how does Trey Flatt or Michah Wilson for CC not make it? They were some of the best 1A players I have ever seen.

I sure hope they can get back down. Well see. Like I said, we have talent but it’s going to depend on a lot of development of our new linemen. And this assumes AC goes to 2A. Monroe Central will also be tough next year. And I’m glad I could educate you lol. Now just gotta work on the Northeast football announcers.

No one can replace James Arnold, but we’ll be set at QB with Aidan Wanner next year. He spent the past few years playing wide receiver at an all state level. He can pass the ball well, but will add more mobility than James provided. SA should have the skill positions covered, mostly with Trey Schoch returning. SA can field a good team, it’s all going to depend on how well of a line can be developed. We return only one lineman, our center Sam Plattner, who has played any varsity action before, but there are guys I believe that can do well. Going back to Aidan, don’t be surprised if he’s one the most dominant players in 1A next year. He’s getting recruited by some MAC schools.

Yanni Karlaftis

Love seeing James Arnold on here, but this list is a joke. How does Yanni make it playing only a few games? Did he even make it past week 1? He’s probably the best linebacker in the state, but how do you give someone all stare honors being hurt all year?

Those aren’t too bad lol. But about every announcer this year has called Trey Schoch (pronounced Shock) as Scotch or Scoutch. And we did have an Amish kid on the team, and they did pronounce Hilty right.

Ok, so someone else does it, and no one looks them over before being played? I’d hope someone official would at least watch the videos first and check for names.

They put our head coaches name on the pre game video as Doug Beall, our head statistician, instead of Grant Moser. His name is listed on Maxpreps since he’s in charge of that, but that’s such a big oversight. I also expected more from a professional announcer in terms of pronouncing names correct. I know SA has some weird names, but someone even halfway decent would check with some SA person on some of the names. Our Berne Witness guys do it every week with the opposing team.

Is there any chance a small school player gets thrown a bone as a finalist? I know he won’t win, but James Arnold should at least be considered as a finalist. He led the state in passing yards and touchdowns, while nearly leading a comeback for the ages in the state title game. I know he won’t win, but it would be pretty cool to see him listed as a finalist.

Went back and watched, that was 15 Nick Miller, our TE/FB/DE. I didn’t realize til I looked for it here, but he leveled a kid on that play. He has been Mr. Do Everything for us for four years, and he played a hell of a game on Saturday. He normally doesn’t play with much emotion, he’s just a pretty reserved laid back kid, but you could see his heart on his sleeve and how bad he wanted to win that game. I also kind of hoped it would be 70 who you were referring to, because he actually was a backup quarterback the past 3 years. He gained some weight over the offseason, and ended up starting at guard for us this year.

Luers hasn’t been to state since 2012 because for the most part, they were up in 3A during that time. Still winning sectionals and regionals, but more along their actual competition level. The reason they had so much success is because of how long they were down in 2A.

James also may have the most passing yards in state finals history, regardless of class. Our stat keepers had him at 510, not the 480 the IHSAA had. It’s at least worth a look in to, considering the IHSAA half-assed a lot of things during the game.

He’s top 10 career and single season. He might have the most in a single season if we play Southern Wells week 9.
