Andreas via Munster also has a player on the rays Brosseau. Not sure if he played football but I’m a big region fan so go rays go

He also played little league ball in Portage. It's my understanding he was born in Munster but grew up in Portage and, yes, went to Andrean.

Gary West advances:   

 

East Chicago Central only has been removed, they were set to play Gary West 

Right, but is it the first football playoff cancellation due to COVID-19 statewide?

Figured this would be a good thread to keep updated. Is the first one EC Central and West Side?

The second round is live in this thread:

Clarksville sent me theirs and they definitely have the winged helmets. New York's championship matchup included red wings on a grey helmet that faded to white on the back. Pretty slick look.

In Louisiana there is a Snoopy helmet that is really cool. This matchup against a very LSU-inspired helmet was my favorite in their state.

Thank you guys!

Thanks for all these awesome helmets. We're around 70 so far. Planning to launch the polls on Tuesday so accepting helmets through Monday.

I’m personally a big fan of the Southridge helmets 

Also liked the Charlestown Pirates design...although I believe they switched to a white helmet and I was a fan of the Blue helmet they had 

 

white helmets are generally sleek.  I love the current GIbson Southern helmet vs what I had when I was in high school.  But for the the topic of this thread I certainly wouldn’t include it in the list. 

 

I'm a fan of those Gibson Southern helmets. I particularly like the striping down the middle.

Rensselaer, New Haven - What Twitter accounts should I tag?

Anybody else have helmet pictures/Twitter handles?

Pioneer...end of thread.

Big Michigan guy, yeah?

I have about 40 helmets as of right now. I'd love to get more and have a better representation of the state if you all wouldn't mind sharing? I put out a new callout today, too, to include a slick new graphic. There are roughly 20 states involved and several others that have expressed interest.

Dantonio sold his soul with the Austin Robertson recruitment and then further tarnished his legacy with the recent Curtis Blackwell lawsuit where he got caught in a bed of lies.

But just like Urban, it was simply  “time to walk away...”

🙄

Funny how the time came three weeks after a $4.3 million contractual bonus and within 24 hours of signing day.

No wonder Fickell wanted no part of the MSU gig...

I think he could recruit well to MSU, even with the majority of his ties to Ohio high schools. But I also didn't think he was leaving Cincinnati because, at this point, he has the Bearcats coming off 11-2 and 11-3 seasons, respectively, and is really building momentum in recruiting. They're a perennial G5 power right now. Mel Tucker is basically starting several years behind that. It's incredible how Dantonio went from a CFP team in 2015 with five 10-win seasons in a six-year span to one over his last four with a 3-9 season and a pair of 7-6's.

JoJo is a heck of an athlete. It'll be interesting to see how he fares on the defensive side of the ball, especially if he's in the same room as Jon Tenuta.

JoJo flipped his commitment to Cincinnati, which now has a top-20 class nationally.

I’m looking to create a bracket to determine the best high school football helmet in Indiana, which will then be entered into the national tournament. Similar Twitter poll-rna,ents have taken place in Illinois, Missouri, Wisconsin, etc. So I figured why not get Indiana in the mix.

i was hoping you all could help get this off the ground by getting as many schools involved as possible. 

Heres the link link to my tweet. Hope to start next Friday.
