Here, here! 

I will gladly toast the IHSAA leadership for the guts to see the fall sports season through.

I hope they have the same resolve for winter sports as well. My son has classmates who have spent weekends out of state for travel soccer and volleyball during the month of November. I would 100x rather support the education based model of IHSAA over club sports.

I guess it depends on what your kids' goals are... most club sports are their ticket to recruiting,  thus scholarships. 

Luers is going to have their hands full with Pioneer. We might not have the state titles they have,  but those farm boys can flat out ball.

It was against AC not Southwood. He and AC receiver Chase Peterson both broke their legs in that game that was a monsoon and I don't think they were too far apart when they happened, but it's been 4 years ago. Watching that state finals, I knew it was going to be trouble for Pioneer not having him. He did a lot with Kiser on that team.

I stand corrected.. it was AC. My memory is slipping.

Losing him before state was a game changer. I swear to God it was. 

I think so,  but the Miners (mostly Meurer) exposed a weakness that we had and that was playing more players. Ever since that game, Pioneer has had a decent rotation of  defensive linemen and linebackers to stay somewhat fresh during games to put pressure on opposing QBs.

FB was out 2 weeks ago vs Bremen, so they missed him last week and still won, which a big boost for Pioneer machine, Robinson is a good player for them however, but they adjusted like they always do and found a way 

Agree coach.  Robinson's speed will be missed. Kind of reminds me of Danny Gregorich's broken leg suffered in semi-state against Southwood a couple of years ago.

Then we had trouble containing Tyler Meuer from Linton-Stockton in the state final. He was a very shifty qb but we were gassed from chasing him around all game.

Cheaper than the ATM fee at Connie's, right @StinkTownClown?

At least when you go to an atm like that, you know your getting screwed!

I assume you’re speaking of the tragic death of Declan Sullivan while filming football practice 10 years ago. There was never any lawsuit. The Sullivan family remains a valued part of the larger Notre Dame family.

Yes Bobref, that's the one. Thank you for clarifying. I stand corrected on the lawsuit issue but not the total negligence of the university. If something like that happened on a high school football in today's world, I doubt any school corporation would survive the onslaught of lawsuits from such an egregious decision to use a scissor lift.

Isn't even having an event now a days a liability? 

It's risk versus reward. In this case there's absolutely no reward to be had. Only bad things happen on scissor lifts! Just ask Notre Dame..I believe they are being sued after being found negligent for improper use of a scissor lift.

That'd be a hard one to beat, for sure.
