If only our educational systems were even close to the biggest waste of our tax dollars, it's one of the few places I don't mind mine being spent.

I am a little surprised more guys on this thread haven't seen this one.

I think some coaches just deal with it....and if your not a tempo team you might not care.

@Bobref Bob, what are your thoughts on inconsistency regarding making the ball ready for play (every down not just first down)?

Don't forget his daughter coaches girls basketball at Jasper.

Titans announce 2023 schedule:

The biggy I see in SW Indiana is the ref who stands over the ball until the defense is basically set....as if he is waiting for them before allowing the ball ready for play. This makes tempo offenses not so tempo.

Heathens!

Very Impressive.

We can just close the thread now! LOL

Add special needs to that...many between 10 and 20%

3, 2, 1......LOL

Looks like they are there now: https://ifca.net/all-state-teams/

Agree on the progress. Hopefully they get some quality candidates.

Paul made sure lawyers were no longer allowed in the hearings so that he can continue to bully less sophisticated parents. This is mostly due to Crown Point-based lawyer Michael Jasaitis winning every single transfer appeal he was a part of. Jasaitis still advises families on how to approach the IHSAA when they are getting the shaft.

Can anyone confirm or deny that these lists should come out next week?

No argument that Castle punches below its weight. Sheer numbers should help to offset the P/P enrollment advantage. My mistake on recent all sports trophies. I am working on some more concrete data but I am firmly convinced we aren't even close to ERM as NP is no where close to MD. Just using the eye test over the past decade we put a product on the field probably much closer to MD than we do ERM. This is why I have never really seen ERM as a "rival" ...more of a goliath that we had a couple opportunities to try and slay. If they do private right....noone in 3A should be able to touch them under the current broken system. We all know enrollment alone doesn't consider the student population factors. We have plenty of soccer only kids....baseball only kids as well (that probably a pretty ubiquitous challenge across publics and privates).....doesn't change the fact we are pulling from a smaller pool of quality success driven student athletes in the building per capita enrollment.

It's a start but it's reactive...I would argue we can predict success with a pretty good degree of accuracy proactively.

It's not even close to public and we all know that. I didn't ask my kids to only think of boys. Lets put it this way....GS and MD are probably really close in the effective student body population. GS and ERM are not close. ERM competes with Castle for All sports conference honors....how is such a thing possible? We know how it's possible and it is what I have put forth.

Agree...but it's bigger than the special needs kids. It's the kids who are just there because the law says they have to be there or are there to get that diploma with the least amount of friction/participation as possible. My private friends seem to not want to admit how many of these kids are in even the most homogeneous of publics. My kids think at GS it approaches 35%. There isn't a private in the state who deals with that....therefore their effective enrollment is the single most impactful reason they punch above their class.
