    Wouldn't say that for SA.  But as you know (Lewis Cass)....through the years as a powerhouse.  

    When you see and/or reach the 'summit'....anything less is always looked at as a down year.

    Wanner 7 will be QB next year, Schoch 8 will return as top WR.  Summersett’s younger brother will be RB.  But they are just losing too much talent.  A sectional title next year would be a good feat for SA, IMO

    I believe AC won in 2000 - correct?  I am a Southern Wells Alum and know that the Raiders beat Perry Central in 2001 @ the RCA Dome.  AC, SW, and Southwood came from the same Sectional and won three straight state titles.  Talk about a tough sectional! 

    Yes this is correct.  I played for SA in those years...graduated 02.  SW and AC were tough.

    No  I meant South Newton, his high school.  They are 1-48 over past 5 seasons.  But Gipp feels CC has no competitive advantage over his beloved Rebels   To each his own

    Ahh I see.  I think it’s still an advantage but not nearly like it was in the past.  Kids can choose any public school they want to go to.  Whether there’s “recruiting” involved I dunno

    Good Luck to NE/EC Indiana & NW/WC Ohio Teams!

    Well 2 out of 3 for Semi State! Congrats to South Adams (just odd/tough to say it for this Jet) and Bishop Luers (family member being the first female to score for them)! Great season to the Marion Giants!

    Sort of off topic, but I just can’t believe how AWFUL the ACAC has been the last two years.  Other than SA and AC (and maybe Bluffton), it’s the worst I’ve ever seen it. 
     

    When I played, teams like Heritage, Woodlan, and Southern Wells dominated.  Hopefully it’s on the rise in the coming years!

    Being a fan of big school football primarily, I havent always paid much attention to all the little private schools and charters that have opened up across the state over the past decade.  If it werent for all these little guys, we would be much closer to the Magic 280 goal to achieve competitive balance.

    If Im reading the data correctly, according to Harrels site, CC began play in 2014 with one game, where they recorded a 40-7 win over another newbie, Traders Point.  CC has steadily built and has now reached the 1A State Championship game in just its 6th full season of play.

    Undoubtedly, CC roster is stocked with kids from throughout the Indy Metro, many hand picked by the coaching staff.  The campus lies conveniently just up the street from Indianas greatest football dynasty, Ben Davis HS.

    So I have to ask the question.  How is this fair to the many small public schools who have toiled over the years and never had the chance to advance past a sectional let alone reach the finals.

    It is my firm belief that NO private school should be allowed to play in the lowest classification for this very reason.  The very smallest PPs should be classed at a bare minimum of 2A , with a preferred 2.0 Multiplier to assign the best class fit  Covenent has taken a short cut to the state championship game, and stepped over lots of other programs with significantly less resources.  Kudos to CC on their accomplishments, but lets see it for what it really is.

    Sort of agree.  I feel private schools, especially parochial schools should have their own class.  But yet again, you can choose to go to which public school you want.  So technically public schools could “recruit” I agree

    After watching highlights of the Heritage kid, That dude is exactly what a D1 Program is looking for. He is 6'5 230 and clearly hasn't even accidently wandered in to a weight room. They look at that kid and say we can pack on another 30-40 pounds on that kid and he has a great motor. 

    Miller has worked very hard in the weight room it is clear, but they look at his frame and say maybe we can squeak another 10 pounds on before it starts to impact in a negative way. And are we sure he's 6'4, there is a play on Miller's Hudl first four games high light reel where the Heritage kid is defending him and the kid from Heritage is clearly 2-3 inches taller. 

    I get seeing the frame of the Heritage kid.  But I have yet to see ANY talent out of that kid during a game.  Against SA he was non existent.  Not saying Miller should be going to a B1G school or something like that, but div 1 for sure...if not Div 2
