Teams Sidetracked by Injuries....
DumfriesYMCA replied to Miner_Pride's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
A few years ago Gibson Southern lost their QB in week 9 to a broken collarbone fighting (and succeeding) to win the conference championship game.....I think the following week we faced Evansville memorial in the first round and lost by a touchdown. i think this was 2016 -
Big 8 will be down to 6 teams.

The issue i see with a crossover week is teams need to work their schedule to make sure weeks 7&8 are non conference games so that there is “enough” time to organize the games for week 9. -

I feel like GS was for both the PAC/BIG8 merger and joining the SIAC. I think the big thing was getting a tougher conference schedule and I’m sure the other PAC schools were largely for this too. Boonville dropping out i think makes it tough now because really the SOS doesn’t change too much outside of boonville being added....just play slightly larger schools... at this point i think GS wants to join the SIAC because the hopes of a beefed up schedule for the PAC is now pretty much gone. The biggest losers of this are teams like princeton, north posey, south Spencer -
SIAC expansion rumor?
DumfriesYMCA replied to Cappy's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
GS is probably really hoping for booneville or another school to join the SIAC because as it stands now, almost all the hopes and desires of creating a tougher conference schedule just fell through. -

Lol. I will believe you at that. But you get what I’m saying either way -

SIAC expansion rumor?
DumfriesYMCA replied to Cappy's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Woah 4 schools? I was only hearing 10 schools total, so 2 additions....this would remove all out of conference scheduling and this would be a merger for all sports. i also am reading here 1 PAC school is rumored. Is it really anyone but GS. The combination of geographic location, Enrollment, and success across all sports would imply it would be GS -

I think mostly on the phone. But like all browsers not named exploder/sl”edge” it takes some time to really know what the perks are and how to use it optimally . -

Well there’s definitely smoke....is there fire? -
I’m not totally sure about the public/private school part...but yes. When are they going to address this issue. Ultimately, it’s our friends children, nephews, nieces, grandchildren, brothers, sisters, and children that are hurt most by this. They deserve the best they can get and by underpaying educators, classrooms become more packed and the number of quality educators and role models thins. In many ways, the issue is exponential and will only get worse until there is a breaking point.

I’m not sure moving to the SIAC is the best move for jasper or GS I see the argument....but I’m just like meh. The only positive i see out of it is there are no more “well if you played a SIAC schedule” or “team x is better than team Y via transitive property” -
Evansville Central Coach Named
DumfriesYMCA replied to Titan32's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Eastern Greene is going through one heckuva athletic department situation. Not much is known other than people jumping ship over there...so not a big surprise to see someone join Coach P at north. I think the Central coach who was hired has his work cutout for him though. Plenty of talent still. Should be a contender this year -

I have a feeling most teams want this to happen. I think the proposal is a big win for all teams involved at this point. -

You can really eat up a lot of time If I had to guess it would be anywhere from 30 minutes to a little bit over an hour in time saved for a game. Which doesn’t seem like much but the difference for families/teams driving back home at 8:30/9:00 and 9:30/10:00 is a worthwhile goal for games like this. Ultimately it just depends on the game though. Some JV teams can come in and still score with ease and will bust off huge runs while others will purposely run plays geared at 4 yards a play and just try to get out of there -

Imagine if we lived in a world where you could have meetings from a variety of different places and have everyone else’s face on a tv screen to ask any question you would like. its a bummer that we live in a world that lacks a means to communicate to the point the only way you could possibly be well informed on anything would be to wait until just before a meeting to tell everyone you need clarifications on things. 🙄🙄🙄 -

I agree. On one hand it’s like “come on....”. But on the other a lot of sectionals have new opponents and different styles they will have to face. Should be interesting -

If I recall correctly, at the time it was the largest comeback in Indiana history. That was until I believe center grove made a 35 point swing in 2016 or something. As for Gibson Southern comeback....we started off the 2nd half stupid lucky. A squib kick blasted a kid in the head and bounced right back to us on the opening 2nd half kickoff. We also were coming off of back to back overtime wins and facing a team who had not played a competitive game all year and rested their starters in every 2nd half. Crazy game. Still remember telling their diehard “the side lion” his team wasn’t conditioned for 4 Qtrs of play and he scoffed at the idea that it mattered lol -

When did this happen? I recall people talking about this just last year on quarters. Have some of us missed the memo completely? -

DumfriesYMCA replied to itiswhatitis's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Since someone mentioned quarters playing a factor...at some point we have to get it changed where teams are not penalized for having their kids come in during a blowout. -

The real reason for this is so coaches don’t have to agree to essentially quit on their team. Some coaches will refuse to allow it because they don’t want to give up on their guys. There are arguments that big schools dont want this because they have seniors who don’t see the field much so they want as much time as possible...but I’m a person who believes if your team is capable of getting to that big of a lead vs other big schools, you are also capable or rotating those guys in when the clock isn’t running. -
