Why is it so hard to accept that private school families are just better than public school people?

The fact that the IHSAA forces you to buy an online ticket as well as an online subscription to view the games tells you all that you need to know. 

What are the Owls doing wrong on the defensive side of the ball? Is it scheme, technique, personnel, etc.?

Care to give a breakdown of the first half?

That is the demoncrats plan.   Hopefully, people with good genetics and upbringing will not let their platform take fruition.

Penn got beat because they were not prepared properly by the coaching staff. That has been the biggest issue in the past 5/6 seasons. 

In regards to semi state/state games Penn is so far behind on talent and coaching the other team can predict what we are going to do before we snap the ball. It is so frustrating

What would you do differently if you were the head coach?

For each school in the conference; let's hear your thoughts on the best team, coach, player, etc. throughout the years.

We had a situation last night on a PAT attempt where a #50 lined up as the TE.   The kicking team ran a fake extra point, and released the TE #50 to the corner of the end zone where he caught the ball for 2 points. 

We questioned the official on our sideline about how an ineligible number was able to receive a pass down field and we were told that during kicking situations numbers do not matter.  

What is the actual rule? Thanks in advance.

How would you officiate this situation. 

During the kick off the ball is close to the sideline, but not out of bounds.  The player for the return team steps out of bounds and downs the ball as it is still in bounds. 

Thanks in advance.

By illegal procedure, I would assume tou mean illegal formation, shift, or motion. These become fouls at the snap, which makes them live ball fouls. With the facemask being against B and the original flag against A, you will have offsetting penalties.

Yes, they are a flex bone team and had both halfbacks in motion at the same time. 

Thanks for the clarification. 

For example, Team A is flagged for an illegal procedure prior to the snap.  The play continues, and Team B is flagged for a face mask penalty. 

What is the ruling?

Thanks for the clarification.

The "gun in your mouth" reference to coming out for the 3rd Quarter to start.

Yuccaguy,

What other rules are you not in favor of enforcing?

What is the ruling on returning to the field after halftime?

Asking because we had a situation where the opposing team did not have anyone on the field when the 15 minute halftime was over, but the officials said as long as they report before the extra 3 minutes run out they are good.

Obviously not a huge deal, just curious. 

Thanks in advance.

Heard the Lafayette Central Catholic game had the worst officiating in the state last night. Allowing numerous fights and extras after the whistle. The refs basically decided the game. Are these games reviewed by a higher official?

Interesting that the coaches and players aren't being held accountable.  I wonder why there is a shortage of officials.

Firmly believe that each state should only have one "State Champion"

Personal disagreements aside, how has the success factor impacted the gridiron -- as a whole -- in Indiana since its implementation: Positively, negatively, no change?

Negatively.

Some teams won championships that they never would have won, and some teams missed out on winning championships that they should have won.

What changed?

It is really hard to find now, most of the links that used to work somehow don't... 

However, if you can find it check out the Senate hearing committee from January 24th, 2022.  On that date a gentleman from the CDC testified with data about the dangers of the current vaccines (Cancers/ Miscarriages)  as well as the uselessness of masks. 

Blue Rings.

We all appreciate your high standards and expectations. Thanks for all that you do.

Take your negative attitude to a more appropriate website. PLEASE!!!
