Agree totally...but some of these p/p dudes are off the rails defending the current system.  I guess you can lead a horse to water.

System is the last thing I’m concern with. It is one notch below my concern for kids transferring. As a former high school and college athlete, I never gave a piss about who the other team is or how it was formed. I just wanted to win and when it didn’t happen I didn’t find an excuse other than we got beat. Same way I raised my kids. IDC who they played or where they came from. Just go out and find a way to win. If not a win, don’t make excuses. 
Im guessing you had similar DNA and taught you kids the same thing. 
But that’s just a guess.

Yes...total, complete, and utter BS....so nobody had more than two transfers in the SIAC on any given year...give me a break.  You are public school-educated, so I know you are smarter than that.  I never said any kid from a Catholic School didn't earn anything.  Any kid who makes a deep run earned it regardless of whether they came from a private institution....or a public school (although they may have been in the wrong class).  Now, you can be tired of me complaining about enrollment alone being a really, really dumb way to set up a class system, and that would be fair because that is all I have ever said.  Don't put words in my mouth you are better than that.

Nah. Memorial kids just say a few prayers and win titles. Stop your BS crying. You are better than that. 
I have zero issues with any transfers but for you to act like GS hasn’t benefited is comical. 

Can’t imagine the pouting T32  will do if Memorials is lucky enough to win another sectional back in 3A.

This was possibly the dumbest thing (or maybe just weird) I have ever read on here....aside from anything from the Merrillville morn.

 

Gotta call BS on this one Chief.

BS? You didn’t pick up two Castle kids that were an important part of your title run?  Come on. Stop the BS. Tired of hearing you say kids in catholic schools don’t earn it. It’s ridiculous. 
I’m friends with both families. They didn’t  end up at GS by chance. 
 

Nobody in SW Indiana has had more football move-ins than Gibson Southern and Reitz over the last several seasons. 
Those are facts. I guess it’s not called recruiting since the school is free?

Per East Central twitter: Heading into this past friday night Josh had 1,028yds (5.5avg) after contact.. 71 runs of 10+ yards

That’s bad news for a team that is really in a rebuilding year.

Stinky, Stink, Stink 1.2..3...

My Tigers packed it up two weeks ago, so now I cheer and follow EC!

Sorry Blue Tigers, you know me, your time has come and your season will end this week!

You got that Sectional which some wouldn't have predicted, including STC....so enjoy that, cause this week will be all EC!

STC Gambling "FAKE" Game

EC: - 28

Under/Over Total Points: - 49.5

Ringer TD's O/U: 3.5

Ringer Yards O/U: 237

Blue Tigers Total Yards O/U: 119.5

-28 

Over

over 

over 

under. 
 

this game is a bigger mismatch than the 2017 blue tiger regional game.

What a night.

Three highly contested title games. One shocker. One shootout. One defensive slugfest.

Congrats to Memorial and North. 

 

Great season! I expect VL to keep trending on the right direction. Sounds like both teams had some miscues last night and it looked like a great battle by both teams. 

Game is a mismatch. Tigers will be lucky if it’s not a running clock. EC is that good. 

As much as I’d like to see the Tigers win their fourth 4A sectional in five seasons I’m ready to get back to 3A football. 

Weeks 1 through 11 mean absolutely ZERO come Friday night. Week 12 is never easy. Looks like both teams played really good teams, very average teams, and really bad teams. Both have struggled to get out of their sectional the last several seasons. Should make for a great atmosphere and very competitive game. 

He has one job pre-snap.

No one told me there would be snacks!!!

I need directions to the snacks. Us old guys enjoy free snacks. 

I’ll take NP +15. 

I’m not sure the system is broken. Obviously does need some tweaking. But the current system did clear the path for Gibson Southern.

Jets, it’s still impressive for one of the worst MD teams I’ve seen in years to go on the road and find a way to win vs a good team that was undefeated at home. 
NP by 2 scores but don’t be shocked if MD finds a way.

I agree with this. We are only talking about 4 games if you really think about it.  Jasper vs. HH and Southridge.  And GS vs 2 SIAC schools.  No other "Big" PAC schools have shown a willingness to schedule a SIAC team. 

I think it’s easier for the bottom half of SIAC to find games. Memorial played Mater Dei twice non-conference because nobody wanted to schedule either team. I don’t see many schools in either PAC division outside of HH, GS, and maybe SR that would look for games vs the top half.

It was pretty much a running clock score after the 1Q, 35-0 or 42-0

Don’t care. 2018 Tigers could have hung 70 on 10 of their 15 opponents. Run the ball up the middle with JV and freshman.  
But when your not use to success you don’t understand how to handle it. 

Memorial may have found a wrinkle with QB4 that could help them get past round 2 winner of Bosse/Jasper. 

72-0 is a bad look.

So why couldn’t Memorial pass against one of the worse pass Defenses in the league last night?  I was thinking going in that would be the path to victory.

OL.  Fisher made a young inexperienced OL look decent. Fisher is a DUDE. He would be an FCS or possibly FBS QB if  baseball wasn’t his top priority. 6’3 205 pounds and very athletic. Reminded me of Lindauer when teams thought they had him sacked or pressured. He avoided pressure and looked great on the move with eyes downfield the entire time.  Big arm and could throw from any angle. He will be a problem in the 3A tournament next year. 
 

side note. 
#4 should get a refund from his QB coach in Chicago.

I’ll let you have them. I’m not really a fan of another man’s nuts. 

I mean, you brought his nuts into this feed. 
Im honestly curious, who sits the bench that can help the tigers win? 
They are 6-1 coming of numerous post season wins over the years. I was thinking rebuilding year with youth and here they are in 2nd place in SIAC. 
Not one coach in SIAC is 6-1 with the roster Memorial is working with this season.

Well pass me my pipe while you all continue to hang by his nuts. No kids or family on the team. I just don’t have jaded cult filled eyeballs 

Hang by his nuts? You must hate success. I’m sure you could find a volunteer job on staff and offer your great insights. I’m guessing every teams fans base in the SIAC would love to hang on to Hurleys nuts, all the way to 5 state title appearances and two titles in two different classes. If you find a better set of nuts to grab on to please let me know.
