I think it is time for Penn and Elkhart to move on from the NIC. Elkhart more than likely finds a home in the NLC and Penn either goes independent or Joins the Duneland. Playing Riley and Washington again does nothing for the schedules of either team. Washington and Riley do not want to play either school. Good luck to Jimtown, Glenn and Bremen. While Penn never saw you on the field it was nice having you all.
I know the NLC would never want this, but if Plymouth left and they kicked Wawasee to the curb, I think a conference of:
Mishawaka, Penn, Elkhart, Northridge, Concord, Northwood and Warsaw would be very fun schedule.
