  1. Not sure when the vote occurs, but giving COY to Brunson with the number of players Reitz has on the all-whatever teams, but still keeping the "No Wins in November" streak alive on the Hill seems a little hollow. I'm biased, but Hurley winning a 7th Sectional in 8 years (4 in 4A with a sub-600 enrollment school) after losing the best QB within 100 miles seems more appropriate to me, but I also realize some folks falsely think all it takes is writing a check...
  2. Not sure how I feel about the coach of a 3-7 team getting COY. In contrast, I fully agree Wagner deserved POY because he did more for his team than any other player. You take him away and Bosse probably doesn't win a game.
  3. There's certainly a very good chance 2 PAC teams will play at Lucas Oil. The bigger question is whether a PAC team will win at Lucas Oil.
  4. We enjoy playing Chatard. Just haven't had the chance since 2018. Maybe we'll get the chance next year.
  5. IHSAA can't read a map? It is what it is, but it will be a game that might get a guy like me from Evansville to drive to Lincoln City in November to see who gets a crack at Chatard at LOS.
  6. Sounded like he had a bucket on his head like Gomer Pyle and you could hear the other PBP team calling for the local channel. Just awful.
  7. The Bash broadcast is the worst sports broadcast I've ever heard. Turned it off after 5 mins. Has it been that bad all year?
  8. If EC wasn't going to get bumped after winning 4A again, I would say we should voluntarily bump to 5A...
  9. But that doesn't fit the public school fans' narrative. They'll tell you it's only the p/p schools that recruit.
  10. Very good. You could combine Reitz, Jasper and Memorial and maybe it's close. Congrats to EC. Safe travels home. Enjoy the back to back 4A state titles. Fun team to watch.
  11. Yep, both have tall tasks ahead of them. I am looking forward to EC being in 5A.
  12. Equally absurd. There are eight teams in each Sectional. C'mon man, you are really reaching... Hope this is sarcasm...
  13. We recruited the heck out of the AD.. I always get a kick when people point out that "x" number of players on our roster are not from Catholic grade schools. The number of kids on public school rosters who went to Catholic grade schools is always higher than the number of kids who went to public schools on the Memorial and MD rosters. Without fail...
  14. Most parishes in the Evansville diocese pay a "tax" that is called HS Assessment, which helps reduce tuition for students coming from their schools. In return, most parishes expect the families to be active parishioners. The assessment amount is different for each parish and involves a calculation few actually understand.
  15. So Ev. Memorial would have been bumped from 3A to 5A after the 2018 season? Absurd...
  16. You mean Reitz? Call it what it is...Look at the roster of Harrison when they won the Sectional. It's the business model...
  17. We probably have less "jump-offs" down here, but in Newburgh, we lose some kids from the Catholic school (St. John Baptist) after 6th grade because they head to The Castle middle schools. The Evansville Catholic schools see less exodus. We get about 90% of the East side Catholic schools enrolling at Memorial. I suspect Mater Dei gets about the same, but I'm no longer on any of the boards where I would see the actual numbers. With the income qualification so high, it surprises me that more people don't take advantage of the vouchers. It has been a decent boost, but nothing like what it could be if people took full advantage of the program. We probably get more non-Catholics than MD, but I don't see actual numbers..
  18. If she hasn't already been playing travel soccer for 4 years she probably has little chance to make our soccer team. It's why we lose some players to other schools because they don't think they can make our team so they go to North, Castle, etc. She could probably make MD's team though as they aren't quite as serious about soccer at MD. Yep, all our kids have to do is say a few prayers and show up, there's no hard work involved whatsoever. SMH...
  19. 97.7 WREF. They also stream the audio on their website.
