Corona and Fall Sports
Staxawax replied to Hoosier Hawk's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Don't be surprised if there are NO spring breaks inserted into the academic year. -
Corona and Fall Sports

There is way more family traveling in the fall than you know. I've heard from MIC schools who have said some big games were poorly attended because of fall break. -

Why are you acting like the school schedule for '20-'21 is going to look anything like normal? Basketball sectionals can be M-T-Th-Sat. The remaining tourney games are on Sat. No one should be planning a spring break until it is officially scheduled. Don't count on the norm in a Pandemic era. This isn't grasping at straws, it's a possible scenario to keep the IHSAA and athletic departments in the black. -

As Bobby Cox was quoted in The Star article, football is the #1 money maker, and combined with Boys Basketball helps pay for spring sports. There may not be another option than to play football in the spring....... killing 2 birds with 1 stone. Getting the revenue and not have to pay for spring sports. For the non-football schools, let them have their spring sports and have tournaments that are non-class, although it would be mostly small schools anyway. Start the season the 1st Friday in March, 6 games, 3 home and 3 road for all. Tournament would start mid-April, no bye weeks and finish up early May. Eliminate conferences for the season since a full slate can not be played. Not ideal I know, but at least there will be a season, and that would still leave 10 weeks or so before fall practice. -
MIC Powershift Away From BD/WC Gaining Speed

Can we call for a referendum to have referendums? -

I don't see insurance costs in your search results. Perhaps that is a part of Management and General? They have insurance. -
COVID Impact on football season
Staxawax replied to CoachAbe's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Even if there is a vaccine by September, it is unlikely the FDA would allow it's use after only a few months of clinical trials. IMO, if you require masks and take each person's temperature when they enter, you would be good to go. -

I think the NCAA has all the money they need. -

We are totally consumed with “what if’s” now. I want to eliminate those. And it’s not even about HS football. It’s about getting back to normal. Too many lives are going to be lost if we continue to test those symptomatic only. The tests JustRules refer are not even the ones that would be used. These tests would be a quick nasal dip and then in 5 minutes or less you know the answer. “Those don’t exist” you say, well not yet they don’t. But give researchers enough incentive ($$$$) and it will come to market. I’m done here, but look for Pelosi and her gang to demand this and in this case I agree with her. Just don’t forget where you heard it first! -

The price of freedom sometimes takes a little inconvenience. You’re sensationalizing a little. You’re not going to need a test to get gas. If you think logically mass testing for maybe 6 weeks would totally wipe this out. This story from March better explains what I’m trying to say: https://dailycaller.com/2020/04/06/epstein-its-time-for-some-clear-thinking-about-the-virus/ Do you want to continue to be forced to stay in your home and only leave it with mask and gloves for an undetermined amount of time or choose this path? -

There are no ifs when the test is required for every person. If they refuse or test positive and don’t self isolate there are fines and jail time. A test with a 5 minute result isn’t much more inconvenient than the wanding that many HS are doing now. It just makes no sense to keep testing just those with symptoms, test everyone and do it ASAP. -
Avon's lights were on at the HS and both Middle schools. RIP

The quickest way to beating this is to TEST EVERYONE. Develop a quick at-home test (like a pregnancy test) and require everyone to take the test. Have them at any event of any size gathering, pass it and you get in. That way the few that test positive are quarantined, the vast majority that don't have it can freely go about their lives. This can happen by having the government invest whatever billions it takes to have a company or companies get this to market. Better billions spent to get this country back on it's feet in just a few weeks than spending another trillion (or 2 or 5) on bailouts and just continuing to test those with symptoms and closing down our access to freedom. -

If you believe ANY news out of China I've got some prime land in Florida I'll sell you at a really good price! -
Best HS Football Team in Indiana History?
Staxawax replied to MICFan34's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
"61 Reitz team. There can be no other comparison when a team shuts out everyone they play. Don't want to hear about Warren, Ben Davis, etc. They cannot claim this feat. -

My understanding is they have insurance to cover most of the lost revenue. -
Well I hate to once again be the bearer of bad news, but ALL cruise lines are halting cruises that port in the US.

Disney is closed. Might as well sit at home and watch Wallyworld and John Candy.

MIC should give Lawrence schools the boot

FC filled the 8th opening from when the Lafayette area schools left. The HCC is now closed for expansion. I repeat, the HCC is closed! Thank you for your interest. -
Best Stadium/Venue in the state
Staxawax replied to Indiana Fan's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
It's as good as many for opposing fans. It gets my vote as the best in the state. Love the Reitz Bowl!
