No problem, asked an answered...TROLL Ask Tony Dungy about his travails! 7% is my answer. FACTS!!!

It is in the "plan".... But let's see when it comes to fruition. (As well as South Side) Wayne was to have it this year. Based upon a discussion I had TODAY, it won't come until the 2023 season for Wayne.

You are a trolling IDIOT! I am absolutely sorry that you feel anyone actually cares about your opinion on anything. It has NOTHING to do with the "hue" (no pun intended towards Mr. Jackson)...It has EVERYTHING to do with what's right/just and a move forward in pushing the league forward as well as being fair and honest. Why would anyone who is not of a certain demographic ever believe that they have any chance (7%) to further their dream(s) beyond that of a "coach on a staff". And THAT is relatively NEW to the equation. You have no idea of how that (marginalized) feels being on the other side of the fence! Curt Flood sacrificed his life, career, and health for the belief that the reserve clause was tantamount to slavery on behalf of the MLB owners. Yet not only is he NOT in the Hall of Fame, but those who used him as the stepping stone are: Marvin Miller. And also the Free Agent clause is absolutely synonymous to Andy Messersmith and Dave McNally....not Curt Flood. Spare me with the racial innuendoes! It is much more than that with what is happening in the NFL. Oh 2 more rap sheets recently: Ben Roethlisberger and Brett Favre.... neither ran a 4.3 40 yard dash.....TROLL!!!

Understood. Again, not picking on you...just responding to the topic. But I don't see with the financial impact that would happen with FWCS, that they would welcome the added budgetary concerns to a school system that is located in what could be termed "a Red Area"...taxes would go up, based purely on sports beyond FB and Basketball. Yes teams DO travel long distances in other conferences. But NEVER in the SAC for conference games. The NE8 should welcome Angola into the fold, IMO. But when you think about travel from Angola to Huntington North, Bellmont, Norwell (I-69 makes it a bit better).... those are some hauls. Jay County is the outlier in the ACAC. But we can agree that the ACAC is a good fit for them. Though if you looked a 'size', they are an NE8 school....again travel comes into the equation. Garrett had that issue to an extent, then went back to the NECC.

I honestly DON'T care what YOU think.... Just responding because I opened up your post. Nice work there; Peter Griffin Obtuse Here's your $ .25 for the correct usage of that term.... And NO it's not! It's a band aid on a larger problem. Apparently that "baggage" is good enough for him to be an OC, but not good enough to allow him an opportunity to be an HC. Black people and minorities have heard that old song all the time.... Guess it's ok for some to have "juvenile indiscretions" well through their 20's. But others aren't afforded the same after they reach puberty (or 10 years old)....It's a life-time sentence and stigma.

I am fascinated by this long-held belief that Warsaw should join the SAC. This is not directed at psaboy, but this was the last reference to this situation. I cannot see why any program would join a Conference that would be separated by another county, and 40+ miles from the nearest conference foe. It would be a nightmare for the logistics of sports beyond Varsity Basketball and Football. Other than the "size" of Warsaw HS. I don't see the attraction for them to look eastward at the SAC as a member of the conference. Unless and until, there's an alliance that strictly is Football specific, there will not be any reason Warsaw, or any other school to look at changing their affiliation(s). I would love to see an 1-69 Conference (from the Indy Donut to FW) or a Northern Indiana Conference; Perhaps encompassing some Region schools, FW and all environs in between for FB only Friday nights.

RE-TREAD! Why isn't Eric Bienemy a Head Coach? Oh lawdy, lawdy.... There are 2 African-American Head Coaches in the NFL now. 🤨 And a guy who says he's "multi-racial" in Miami. I say, welcome to the club; Almost EVERYBODY in the Americas is "multi-racial" if they dig deep enough. Nice try, Stephen Ross.

Proves that in THIS situation YOU have no idea of what you are talking about, when you are demeaning a program for being an instigator..... I WAS THERE!!! I also reached out to the ENTIRE SPORTS program to re-ingratiate them to the IHSAA!

I agree. But I the NBA has "issues".... I can agree with that. Players (limited rosters...not 53) can be impacted by ONE move, NFL rosters need a bit more to make that kind of impact. Also, I am not so sure that the NBA is heading down the right road with the 'star' power that they tend to perpetrate. NFLPA represents the players.... And they should just stay on the sidelines. For now NOT MANY!! And I totally agree with that. In 2022, this ain't Halas' NFL.

I think Leftwich asking for MORE inclusion and power in his staff selections and the direction of the franchise, made him a less than desirable HC for Khan. It says more about Jacksonville as a franchise (business) than it does about the individual that the 'settled' upon in Pederson. Even Parcells said "He should be able to buy the groceries, if he going to be the cook"..... I think that is an admirable position to have as an NFL HC.

Let's not get down a "Rabbit Hole" of the quota system. The basic argument is the FAIRNESS of the Rooney Rule. Also, the $100K that is alleged by Flores to lose games by the Dolphins' owner (via the GM...a minority also)

I think the NFLPA will sit by and "Eat Popcorn" while this goes on. Goodell is an employ of the OWNERS. And this has all their interests at heart (later date), but beyond their ability to impactfully have any solutions at this time.

Ok. What/When was Delta an instigator? Please fill us in. Hopefully you aren't back to THIS!!!

This situation cannot, nor should be confined to just the lawsuit filed by Brian Flores. There are NUMEROUS individuals who have been "bushwacked" by the pretense of an actual interview/opportunity that was brought by the "Rooney Rule". As for Hue Jackson, he seems to be in compliance and the embodiment of TANKING for draft picks, supplemented by $$ to lose. He says that "Why would you give a contract extension to HC that was 1-31 over 2 years if it wasn't clear that you wanted to lose and did NOTHING to improve the quality of the team?"... The owners within the league are the problem. Yet, again their employ (Goodell) is the front-man who has to answer for all of this. As usual, the NFL will dodge/pivot and ultimately not answer for anything. It's quite clear that they blackballed Kaepernick out of the league, and got away with it. But with 70% of the league consisting of AA players, this is not a situation that they cannot address. It would be a great opportunity for those players to boycott a week, and see what the effects would be. A number of these men have looked at their futures beyond the playing field, and see no opportunity for advancement. The time came years ago for the NFL to diversify. Yet in 2022, the same ole, same ole continues and is the norm.

Its' a DAMNED shame that in a league 70% (+/-) African-American. in 2022 there is only ONE Head Coach that reflects any ability for those who would even choose to think about their future within the NFL beyond that of an "assistant" continue to use the guise of the Rooney Rule to circumvent and continue the old-boys network as a way to further their idiotic hiring practices.... Eric Bieniemy should have been hired 3 years ago as a HC in the NFL! The Jaguars "may" hire Byron Leftwich as their HC....again "MAY". That's IT! The NFL has done a better job with their officials (selection/promotion) in giving/providing a diverse representation to the those of us on that end of the spectrum; Than anything the ''OWNERS" have ever done in trying to find and promote those within a minority community to lead their franchises. SAME OLE, SAME OLE.... Meet the new boss, same as the old boss. Recycled, and not updated! But with the same 'suit". 🤬

Mishawaka

I agree. Perhaps I over-spoke in saying it was a step back. Coach Tippmann is well aware of what's best for the program. And I am totally in step with this competition!

East Noble, under the leadership of Coach Amstutz, absolutely knows that this is a GREAT opportunity to prepare them for the juggernaut that the NE8 has/will be for seasons to come. For those that think this is a 'step back' for Snider....PULEEZE! East Noble is formidable is every way! I would suspect that other NE8 schools will choose to play SAC schools in the 2 'free weeks' and we can see cross-conference rivalries flourish in NE Indiana.

Coach Mike Eshbach has stepped down from the Concordia HC position after one season at the helm of the Cadets. While I have an absolutely outstanding potential HC in mind for this position, it would be outside of my purview to suggest that a member of the "1st family of FW Football" become the obvious choice, should they wish to pursue this endeavor..... https://www.wane.com/high-school-sports/concordia-head-football-coach-steps-down-after-one-season/

The split situation is the BEST that is for the "now". The SAC, cannot legitimately compare to the best in Indiana being a 'closed' conference amongst multiple classes for the larger schools. I am sure that they (SAC) will investigate the ramifications of this decision in a few years and tweak it as needed. But it is apparent that the 2 new 'pseudo' members are in compliance with the competition and the structure that will be in place; This gives them a basic line that they can build upon to get better.

All of these matchups are better than the current lineup of games!

Waterfurnace International! Pays MY Bills! Thank you, (the late, Jim Shields)

I've been gone for a while... some family situations going on, numerous including Covid with Mom. I will reach out to Coach Barron and communicate with him personally. No matter what those on the GID think...we as officials DO have an absolutely outstanding amount of respect for the Coaches who teach, lead and develop the youngsters who are involved with HS Football. Video can show them yelling, screaming and berating us from time to time... but that's something that every official needs to look beyond. "Competitive Incompetence" happens. Hopefully, those involved, take a breath, and understand why things were adjudicated why they were. Back to the topic at hand! Thank you Coach Barron! A friend, a mentor and a wonderful supportive partner in Indiana High School Football!

Totally agree. Is it possible that @DumfriesYMCA is really:

More like a character. But that's ok also. Still the OK thing is something that should be looked at and potentially considered (if there's a ground-swell) to separate the MEGA-6A from those below a demarcation line for other 6A schools. IMO, the 'demarcation line' has less to do with school population; Than the ability to seek better competition that makes those beyond the "donut" competitive in 6A as it exists currently.
