Alright alright. You’ll have my payment soon enough.

Now that’s thinking outside the box!

I agree to all of this...but it would be crazy interesting to see the numbers on some of these...for football the #2 at Texas A&M was Johnny footballs number. I recall reading that at some point you could type his name into their online merch store and that jersey would pull up. No name on it but clear association of name and sales. you speak to a good point though that only a few get retired and by that notion how can you determine if it’s their number or not...for Syracuse Lacrosse the number 22 is a big one with lots of top players wearing that...similar to The #1 jersey you mentioned

The issue is that universities and everyone else gets to make money off them. Jersey sales of just the number no names of big time players sell like crazy. Billions of dollars are made off of their likeness...tv ads and all included... just allow all athletes to make money on their own being.

Sectional 32 Gibson Southern over Heritage Hills. heritage hills is the heavy favorite after a dominant season and winning 49-14 over GS this season. Game is at GS this time and anticipated to be much closer. Most people have said they expect HH to win. But they won’t be shocked if GS wins. Should be a very intense battle tonight. Both teams are coming in knowing they have to play their best game. For HH that is just continuing what they have done all season. For GS it’s stopping the mistakes and not beating themselves

I agree 28 has the cards and the resume. That’s why it’s the sectional of death lol.

Right? Practice for the conditions you’ll play in....or at least try. Sometimes it’s impossible to prepare for something like an iced over field

Yeah I think it would be a fools move to think chatard or WL is the favorite. for the past 3 years it’s been 1A 1B between the two and usually 1 other team....usually them and the best out of 32 that year. i personally feel like it’s been pretty accurate too. Shoot for the better half of this decade, the top of 3A is really close and competitive. Some games a team made too many mistakes and the score got out of hand....like Chatard vs memorial when memorial scored a ton. but all in all. These teams are all really close. no true favorites. It’s more like tiers. you got your top tier schools of 3/4 teams then you got the guys under that. Probably 10 or so teams. then 30ish teams who have been good but frankly it just won’t be enough. and finally about 20 teams who are just looking forward to next year and getting the offseason going already

Oh shoot Baylor is undefeated still. Good call

Insert “thank you” reaction** @DK_Barons my man....help me spread some love in these threads. If I had to guess there is a rolling 24 hour clock with 10 reacts per 24 hours. How about we double that up. There are just too many posts that I want to give a thumbs up to or 😂😂😂 react to. please sir. Help us poors

@Coach Nowlin can we increase the cap for likes and hahas. I keep hitting my cap on a daily basis and frankly I can’t get enough of endzone cameras and stories around them. Real shame I can’t show as much appreciation as I want to lol

Don’t know a single person who doesn’t like ther Reitz Bowl

If LSU beats bama they are in. That offense is just crazy

Burr has been absolutely torched by the media...what a joke he is.... someone replaced athletes with troops and mentioned their benefits as a mocking of him and it really drove home the point

Being a member of this board causes that. 😂. At least you’re not the worst case. Some people here believe we should cut all the funding for football or in other cases “contract” the number of schools participating. Talk about having delusions

@Gipperhow many people are users for your account? Lol. Looks like you’re going crazy quoting yourself

More so....Hart has made his impact at a number of schools. Mt Carmel (southern Illinois) back in the day....Reitz to a state championship, Warren Central too....Huntley Illinois he went 28-12 before coming to brownsburg. so good at coaching his own sons are just as successful on the gridiron with all they have learned in Harts 30+ years of coaching. Nick Hart as we know is the coach of GIbson Southern and is 84-14 since he took over. Derek Hart this year took over Kankakee Illinois football program and has immediately turned their program around too. He is currently 8-1 and has the Kay’s ranked 10th in Illinois 5A. I won’t say someone can’t be better than John Hart. But the man has been outstanding and recently just notched his 300th career victory, currently at 300-91 all time record in 35 seasons...mind you he is only 57 I believe so he has been at this since he was roughly 22 years old Mt Carmel (2A Illinois) 101-21 in 11 years. Reitz 73-17 in 7 years (2007 title) Warren Central 41-9 in 4 years (2009 title) Huntley (7A Illinois) 28-12 in 4 years Brownsburg 32-9 in his 4th season Nothing against any other coach but it’s hard to say someone is a better coach than Hart...his 2 sons are successful football coach’s and his 2 daughters are coaches for basketball and volleyball and have been successful there too. 1 was a girls basketball coach for Central/Princeton and has gone 113-25 in 6 seasons. The whole family is coaching gold. Wherever they go, the players buy in and they win.

Say it ain’t so!

This never gets old haha. I’m sure HH is capable of passing the ball. They have passed vs other teams but we all know they certainly don’t need to. one of you HH fans said it well already this year “HH is a very balanced team in that they will get the ball to 4,5,6 different guys and all of them have run the ball very well. It’s no single player effort in the rushing attack” (paraphrased)

I mean. No doubt. You want to instantly grab top recruits and have a top 5 team? Hire urban....for football he is a great coach. it’s just in my eyes he is a win at any and all costs kinda guy

If they were here they didn’t post at all. I was very clearly by myself hyping GS for a good bit. Then a few came out of the shadows if what you say is true. then we had the great flood of GS posters before they died off after 2015

To be fair I have been the only member here who was here before the Hart era...and I was here as a student at GS back in 2011...I’m not sure any other GS poster has been here as long. so this whole time, the GS posters have only spoke/wrote about the Hart area. Right or wrong that’s the way I perceive it....and I find myself being the only one to ever mention what it was like at GS for football before Hart.
