Would West Lafayette, Kokomo, McCutcheon join a conference with Danville, Tri West and Lebanon?

That's fair. John Hendryx was only there for 5 years and guided them to their first sectional title, he left to go to his Alma mater winamac and left arguably his best team at Knox which was Radtkes first team. That Knox team just had injuries and other issues Hendryx's five years. 6-6 9-3 9-2 7-4 11-2 (sectional champs) thats why I said he got them going and Radtke took the baton and ran with it. Knox has done well with their last two football hires.

West Lafayette, LaVille, Triton, North Judson and West Noble all had fine seasons. Chatards schedule definitely helps them but even if they played a weaker schedule or watered down they'd still be really good and probably still favored by a lot.

John Hendryx got them going and Coach Radtke has kicked it into high gear.

Wonder what their schedule will be Tippecanoe Valley, LaVille, Glenn, Bremen, Jimtown and I know they are still playing North Judson. I believe LaVille is keeping most of their schedule. They kept Glenn, Bremen, Knox, North Judson and Triton. Added Jimtown and Valley. I think Central Noble and Whiting are the other two.

You could solve all this by moving out of a city.

The Sanchez boy missed most of the year up front on DL. He's a talented big strong kid. He's made a huge difference. I think Judson's pass defense struggled a bit against Triton and they had a lot of turnovers. North Judson lost quite a bit from last season. Aldric Harper, Quinton Frasure, Cheyenne Allen and Logan Radtke to name a couple. This year was supposed to be a season where they took a step back or two which they have but still have experience and some talent back and some new faces playing. They'll be much better next season.

I wonder if Rochester is kicking themselves in the pants. Even the slightest passing game or a kicker for that matter...they are more than likely playing Luers.

It's a joke my guy.

I could see the field somehow getting "muddy" by Friday even without it raining all week 😎

I think you misunderstood what I was saying. I was basically saying (in this instance) that I wish that LaVille fan would have realized that LCC has "played big boy" football.. playing the schedule and the teams they do makes them prepared for "big boy" football. What makes you think LaVilles new schedule won't help them that much? Valley is an upgrade compared to any HNAC school. Jimtown, Glenn and Bremen would compete against every HNAC team and would beat most.

I'm happy for LaVille that they reached Regionals but sometimes I wish fans would know what size schools their opponents play. West Lafayette, Guerin, Hamilton Heights and Western are four teams LCC played and are bigger than Knox and Glenn (two biggest LaVille played) I do think LaVilles new conference will help with them adding Jimtown and my alma mater Tippecanoe Valley though.

I remember in 2012 with like 50 seconds left before half Central Catholic threw 4 passes to score a TD right after Winamac got within a TD and CC had zero time outs. I looked at my girlfriend and said "it's like watching Monday night football " haha. Barrett was also a very special player.

Bremen has a QB that threw for over 2k and had one receiver at 700+ and another over 1200 but not sure their skilled guys as a whole are as good as CC's. Glenn also had a capable QB and some skilled guys he could throw too but again not sure if they stack up VS LCC. Scott Ballentine had 124 yards Passing against LaVille, the 2nd lowest total he had this year. So LaVille has faced 3 teams with throwing QBS and went 4-0 against them but one thing LCC has in spades is skilled guys that are very athletic. Should be a dandy.

It will come down to Lucas Plummer, the kicking game and if LaVille can defend the pass.
