    I have to say I did not see this one coming.  18-10 over three years

    Best of luck coach in your future plans. 

    Are the cupboard's bare, or is he onto bigger and better things? this is a head scratcher.

    Been waiting for OV to get this opportunity since week 1. OV throttled TH South in a scrimmage this summer (heard from an inside source), and Coach Hart must've brought his lucky rabbit foot to THS week 1... OV would still be 10-0 if they traded schedules. Actually think WIC is tougher this year. OV by 20+ ... Sayonara baby!

     This has "fake account" written on it it flashing red, I'd bet my bottom dolllar.

    Hah!! You guys could actually make a killing streaming games from sponsors. Last time I listened to Coach Hart's radio show there were so many sponsors it took the first 5 minutes to read them. And think of it, if you charged $10 to watch you'd probably get $100 a week from @DumfriesYMCA alone... 

    I know I'd pay 100.00 for the regular season, beats the hell out of gas for the 13 hour drive to see them now.

    You're right, my mistake, this was discussed already in the other thread. 3 big plays by Vincennes accounted for all 600 yards. Two of which were mistakes by the officials and the third the lights from the stadium got in GS players eyes. Somehow they managed to score 3 more TDs (unless my math is off). 

     

    My apologies.

    apology accepted. at least you see the error in your thought process.

    "No one has been able to drive the football consistently against the GS defense" 

    Except for the low level SIAC team that put up 42 points and almost 600 yards of offense.

     

    Or wait, did they do that against the JV team like MV did earlier in the season? I wasn't there so someone will have to inform me on that one.

    There is a slight difference in "drive", and rip off a big play. I think.

  6. So, just what is an Alice?

    Like in the tale that describes the origin of the word Hoosier, the nickname that adorns the home jerseys for Vincennes Lincoln High School has, shall we say, a cryptic past.

    In a senior paper, one Vincennes Lincoln student gave two very plausible scenarios.

    The first theory is that the school's nickname was spawned from a historical story, “Alice of Old Vincennes,” written by Maurice Thompson. The story takes place in Vincennes in 1788.

    Of course, as any good fourth-grade student in Indiana can tell you, Vincennes was the state's first city.

    The other theory is generated from the time Vincennes won its first state championship in 1923. People were amazed by the success of the young lads, and said the team was like an “Alice in Wonderland,” the way they came up through the ranks to win.

     

    I believe it was the first, I had a great uncle that played in the 20's for the team, and they were already the alice's.
