Indiana Fan

I know this has been mentioned before, but would really love to see a regular season matchup between Carmel and Westfield. Close drive, great crowd, great programs. Really unsure why that can’t happen in the very near future. Would be great for the Westfield program and could start a fun rivalry.

College coaches don’t care what offense is being run. They check size, speed, skill, smarts, etc. if a kid can he can play. Doesn’t matter the offense. The coach who put this out there is ridiculous. High school coaches are limited to players, talent, and all sorts of other things depending on the size of the school. Be organized, know your philosophy, and get the kids to buy in. When you have to adjust because of a certain particular player then make that adjustment. Nothing else more to say about this crazy idiotic statement from a so called coach.

I checked with multiple sources and it is true. 16 players allowed. Tournament is in Grand Park not the colts facility.

I’ve heard lots of complaining about the Colts 7on7 this weekend. Teams only allowing 16 players total?!?! That is crazy. Not good for large school teams.

Why do you say this? What’s the reasoning? Varsity only won 1 game last year and JV got beat up badly from what I heard. I never attended a game of theirs, but I think it will be difficult for them to change that quick. I know it’s a new staff with a winning head coach, but there are a lot of moving parts. I’d like to hear your reasoning and those specific noises you are hearing from the south East.

They should be playing in 6A. For sure should never drop back down to 4A.

I miss Warren vs Cathedral. Cathedral should be playing Warren and Carmel every year.

He probably would want some wins too. Or a game that doesn't make that already tough schedule more difficult.

DT has an obsession over IMG. Again, that is not high school football.

I would be fine with 5.

What about Bloomington South? 2 new move ins who are BIG TIME recruits. Their father will be joining the IU football staff. Maybe the Panthers break through and put together a run.

That would be one heck of a tournament...LOL! Yes I agree, 8 classes is bad!

Worth a shot 😂😂 I just hope these webcasts go back to being free. Or at least allow more games to be on tv.

So would you pay the cost of an NFL game ticket to watch it on tv?

What does Snider have for this upcoming year? I imagine it’ll be an exciting game between them and Dwenger for the sectional title.

If I am taking an early bet for the 6A tournament: Sectional Champs- Merrillville, Penn, Homestead, Westfield, Carmel, Ben Davis, Warren Central, Center Grove Regional Champs- Penn, Westfield, Carmel, Center Grove Semi state- Westfield, Center Grove State- Center Grove Way early and obviously this is not going off of much other than a Gut feeling. I do not know any info about teams up in northern Indiana. I just know they won't have enough for Westfield. And yes, I do think CG makes it back to LOS for 3rd time in a row and wins a 2nd state title in a row.

The best teams it might not matter. But to say that won’t affect high school kids to not play a game for 2 weeks and keep them practicing and focused for that long is just wrong. Again, yes the best teams it shouldn’t matter, but still that’s a long time without playing.

Well I think most coaches will probably want to play instead of getting that double bye. Taking 2 weeks off could be very bad for a team. 5A has a 6team sectional also...just odd

Wow. Weird stuff with this. I guess the IHSAA literally meant they were freezing enrollments. Only teams moving were success factor teams. I really thought they’d be moving teams up to fill the gap in 6A

I am just stating my opinion. I am just someone who is not a fan of IMG. I think there are plenty of good programs in indiana and teams to play. And if teams want to play some out of state teams every once in a while then sure. I don’t mind seeing Trinity or the Cincinnati teams play Indy schools. I am just against IMG. That’s not a real high school football team. All im stating here.

It is ok. Teams can play who they want. I just would get worn out playing top teams all the time. It’s taxing. Again, losing isn’t good. Players and parents don’t care, they just want to win. No reason to play IMG. How about play another school in indiana where a good crowd can be available. IMG does not bring fans.

Noblesville is at 20% free and reduced lunch. Fishers and HSE around 18%. CG is at 16%. That’s not all that much different.

I would never play IMG no matter what school or talent you have. IMG is not true high school football. Indiana teams have plenty of solid talented schools to compete against. Also, I doubt CG would want to schedule another top team. MIC and HCC schools need a break every now and then. Wins matter too.

I don't want any team from Indiana playing IMG.

Which Week of the season is this? Is that known? Will it be week 2 or week 9? Maybe I missed that in there.
