  1. You don't see many nuns in the Catholic schools anymore. The church has a lot of money, you'd think they'd do better. I know the church has a rich tradition and lots of rules, but I was turned down for a job because of something someone else did. That's crazy!!!! Just opinions.
  2. If you ever would like to see a country that would be severely mismanaged by the haves and woefully unrepresented by the have nots, you'd have this in your case Mr. Muda69.
  3. Call me cynical, but I expect Carroll to find some way to lose. North Side to lose it due to just losing their cool at times. Snider will right ship, but need to get control of the sloppiness that comes in big games (rarely saw that with Isaacs or Hawley). Luers just doesn't have it and if you listen to rumors then the coaching may be changed in the near future (the senior QB would have won the Eastside game simply running the ball many whisper). Wayne has a new coach and might take a little bit to get the offense going...need to see who he brings in to coach. They lost nearly everyone last year, so don't know what the hype was. South not sure. Homestead will be good. Dwenger will have new offensive and defensive coordinators, so there's that. Northrop played well at times, but lots of behavior issues in the school and better athletes walking around than on the field. Concordia is due to get better. Ah, the question at hand...Elkhart should get on par with the new Penn. My little ones from Mary Beck will be entering high school soon and they'll be good. 🙂
  4. People will pick and choose what pertains. I think it pertains, but I'm a male teacher and I have to keep doors open, watch for people's perceptions, and make wise choices because of things administrators do...although I've been called out on here that administrators making the wrong decisions are rare. I've had enough administrators to know that they many do what they can get away with.
  5. I don't think you have to walk a mile, but I'm not a Dodger, err Dwenger fan. Hmm, different perspective I guess. I think the stands are unfriendly, ugly, and the big bear is not friendly to the Panthers. I don't think Zollner is anything special. I like Homestead and Carroll is just big now, but will be nice. North and South are just there. Luers is different to me because I grew up there, so don't know how bad it is, I guess. 🙂
  6. Am I the only one who has heard that he is a multimillionaire, maybe only a rumor, and doesn't need a scholarship?

  8. Interesting, isn't it? There's an interesting thread on another forum here on proper dress. We as humans are stuck in the past at times.
  9. This would have been long ago. A little sleuthing should show an oddity in the coaching reign. Even a state championship year oddity.
  10. I wish it was far more an exemption than what I've seen from working in schools. I do.
  11. One of the old Bremen coaches was arrested for smoking pot. Another example of crookedness looking out for sports:
  12. The part about a coach not getting the job done. If you're at New Haven, you're far more qualified than I am. I left EACS long ago. I can only look at the talent and the W-L.
  13. Of course, because I think the new coach has a good track record. I have no idea who else applied. His teams were fun to watch at two different places. Strictly as a fan. I'd hate to ask the same thing of the Bulldogs. Looks rude.
  14. Thank you. I don't pay anything and it shows up. Interesting. Thank you for the heads up for whenever I do lose the freebie. So Dwenger loses both DC and OC? Probably not a problem. https://www.wane.com/high-school-sports/kolkman-to-lead-alma-mater-as-head-football-coach-at-heritage/

  16. Okay, it has been my experience in the schools and businesses that I've taught and worked in that no matter who is at the top, they are generally looking to make the best decisions based on their own interests. Any questions? Happy to answer the best I can. I may not match wits with you, apparently.
  17. That's not my best choice of words. I've worked with and for a lot of great administrators. They get their own way, generally, and most of the time. As my daughters say, periodt. No, not really. Just a poor choice of words on my part. I've taught with great people in great schools in three different countries and cultures, but as mentioned above, everyone looks out for themselves. Hoosiers are no different. I've sat through school closings and coaches being moved and got to see some real slimy things in both from top admins. You can have your rosy glasses. I'll keep mine realistic.
  18. Hmmm. DeSantis had his way for years. Others will chime in, or won't. The PPP's were thrown together for years in the Indy area. Jimtown was pushed down towards Fort Wayne. There are others in other areas. People lobby and boundaries are moved. People are crooked.
  19. I think that it is more than an exception. It is still largely a networking thing rather than done by data.
  20. Well, don't you spend earn a living finding loopholes and differing interpretations? Is that cynical? Look back at the manipulation. I've also heard fun stories about coaches stealing things and publishing things. The internet makes it harder to cheat now. You can learn a lot if you just sit back and listen to ADs and administrators. You can also see how hirings work and networking. The good ol' boy network is alive and well in Hoosierland.
  21. This makes more sense to me than anything. http://trackfootballconsortium.com/the-death-of-football-fast-and-track-speed/
