I think free and reduced lunch + special ED is a start, but it really doesn't cover all the student types P/Ps don't have to content with. What about those kids who show up and don't participate in anything? They are only there because the law says they have to be and quite possibly aren't enrolled in any free/assisted lunch program and aren't in special ED. Its' likely this group of students is on the Core 40 path. Don't get me wrong ...many of these kids will go on to be very productive members of society...BUT...how many of these types of students do you have at a P/P? The enrollment types vary significantly and it has a huge impact when trying to classify schools on enrollment alone.

Generally positive…but it’s not enough.

Unfortunately all Big schools don't cross over and play all small schools. Only HH kept their schedule pretty much intact still electing to play Tell City, NP, etc. The only one GS plays is SR.

I have seen some of those schools not travel as well as their public counterparts during tournament time.

I think all schools charge in SW Indiana...I could be wrong.

I think you really missed the mark on this one. Effective enrollment is my theory regarding all P/Ps in the state that have decent football intangibles, it really has nothing to do with GS wins or losses. I think it is undeniable and I think every single one of you guys know it, but can't admit it, P/Ps simply have significantly less dead weight just by nature of their business and therefore it should be accounted for in classification. There should not be a competitive advantage just for making the "sacrifice" of sending your child to a P/P with good coaching in any sport (all things being equal with publics with good coaching). Memorial runs very similar in effective enrollment to Castle in both boys and girls athletics, just look at the all conference race. In terms of GS losses, out of the 5 games you mention I think 3 of them were 50/50 games that we came out on the short end of the stick, I personally have no wounds from that other than wishing we had gotten 1 or 2 of them to give the Naysayers less ammunition lol. I think the dead weight for publics is more like 25-35% (and GS is going to be lower than most), we are closer to MD than we are Memorial. It's not about roster size....rosters are full of dead weight at publics. Sure we don't play MD and if we had played them the last 11 years we probably would have lost a few....that is really irrelevant to the point.

GS will be in 4A soon enough due to enrollment. Memorial is where they belong due to the "effective enrollment" ie essentially the number of quality success driven student athletes in the halls. Enrollment alone doesn't work for privates and it's easy to see (unless you're the one collecting the trophies). GS has an effective enrollment very similar to Mater Dei. I hope I coined the phase "effective enrollment".....it's sexy.

What's great about football is there are so many ways to run a successful program...sure there are some constants...but there are also many variables. It's a wonderful sport.

HH has had many small senior classes. The way the do things they only need 11 kids.

You guys are getting traction! Making football sexy is half the battle.

Something like that.

No shots at all really. Our players had some interesting run ins with the staff last year....and some stuff said on their radio show was pretty interesting. Other than that I am happy Mt. Vernon has turned the ship. The more top 15 teams in our conference...the better we will all be.

It’s dead…they claim due to lost password. Therefore the old site will never be updated to reflect the changes (big small).

Looks good. Too bad the conference no longer has a webpage to put it on.

Tecumseh is now a football member (small conference for 2022).

I think they are good thing from a competitive standpoint....but the celebration culture needs to stop.
