  1. Danville (Along with GS, LB, etc) could return their entire team and not challenge Marian. Will have to see how sectional 28 shakes out next year but top 5 teams in 3A were from the north in 3a this year. South was a joke.
  2. Thx to Iowa for showing the way last summer and for Holcomb / Box combo. I’ve now heard from 2/3 school administrations in our co that as long as we have teachers to sit in class rooms we will not shut down. Proud to be a Hoosier. We’ll have crowned fall / winter champions and will be watching spring sports when Illinois decides “out of an abundance of caution” to scrap spring football.
  3. SF = Tax rate. some argue it’s too high. Some argue it’s too low. But everyone agrees that there should be different rates depending on ur income / performance.
  4. Sons and daughters of millionaires get gifted huge sums of stock all the time and good for them ... But they also get taxed at 37%.
  5. This was the year for SA. If they’re in same sectional as Adams Central I doubt they make it out. Jr class is talented but thin. Talent pool Is pretty shallow after that.
  6. Under capitalism man exploits man. Under socialism it’s just the opposite.
  7. Of course u dont teach kids to look for excuses. It’s up to parents and administrators to insure a fair and balanced playing field. The kids expect that when they step on the field. Discussions as to how to make that happen are legitimate. The success factor is a step in the right direction. Probably could be improved a little. No different than when the SEC steps in and forces companies to divest assets after mergers to insure one company doesn’t become or exploit a monopoly.
  8. That was a GREAT game. BUT... Danville needed to keep this tight and ground and pound a win. They ain’t the starfires.
  9. They both played Chatard v tough but Lutheran had to go on the road so I gave them the nod
  10. Actual class 3a top 3 1. Chatard 2. Concordia Lutheran 3. Marian 4. Those who got beat by Concordia and Marian and everyone else from the south.
  11. Great game. SA was shocked 1st half by speed of cc. Big respect to SA coaches and players 2nd half ... given their schedule I didn’t think they would be able to mount a comeback. Great heart / coaching. i understand going for 2. All of SA scores were pretty much deep balls. OT 1st and 10 from the 10 is a different ball game. CC was better up front. Not dominate but better imo. Hence I understand going for 2 to avoid OT.
  12. I won’t. I was feeling pretty good about the prediction after first half. Then Luers stalled on first drive 2nd half and it became a dogfight. I was right in that WEBO offense was one dimensional but brother they can run the ball. Great game. Very entertaining.
  13. I have a pretty narrow focus. When U look at 3a north over the last 2 yr cycle u see the same 3 teams (Concordia, Marian, Chatard) gobbling up sectional/regional/semi state titles and only Chatard will be affected by the success factor. Any sort of action that would target PP schools wouldn’t fly. Unfortunately the success factor is probably as good as we’re going to get despite it falling short of actually leveling the playing field. Now that Chatard is gone Concordia and Marian will continue to rack up titles. dominance is just shifted to another PP until Chatard comes back in 2 years.
  14. Back in august he couldn’t shut up. “Doyel: Purdue's Rondale Moore does what college football lacks the guts to do: Opt out of 2020” That single headline speaks to how consistently wrong he has been.
  15. Probably another column from Doyel arguing all forms of sport must cease until 2027.
