That was the first name I was looking through on that list for and was shocked to not see him in the Top 25. Obviously a lot of great athletes there, but that one got me the most.

 

I guess this should show you what a good job Beemer did,including assistants ,scouting talent for Va. Tech.

Saw a brief on line “spat” between Herbstreit (who is apparently anti opting out) and Shannon Sharpe (who posed the question about coaches leaving before the bowl game). 
 

IMSC, SS even referenced BK doing this twice to 2 of his programs. The most recent being ND to LSU. 

Yes, again, there isn’t a set answer here. The kids are looking out for their futures just as coaches are looking out for themselves. 
My point being, the title of this thread. I know bobref went in to reference players ,but it really is the same if you think they have a moral obligation. If not, then it isn’t. 

Ok Bobref, I’ve been patiently waiting here with this thread, and I’ve combed thru it and not peep about coaches leaving or opting out of the bowl game that they were to play.

I hear ya ! I can only dream

Notre Dame will continue to be at the top of the second tier power five schools. Indiana,Purdue will be right there with them next year. Their old coach knew when to leave. 

Won’t be 8..

While the Alabama Cincinnati score was predictable, I did not see this coming in the UM Georgia game. 

Why? Georgia is the best team in lfootball.  Heads and shoulders above any big Ten team. And the championship game will bare this out.

I’m the opposite. I was more surprised with the score of the Bama/Cincy game. 

I didn’t give Cincinnati a chance 

I’m glad to see Purdue be successful here. The win will go a long way for the program. 

Weed stores 

No.I see athletes in the school if they have that high of a Basketball rating.  Get a good “Bro” coach, and in no time at all the program will contend.

But I mis-spoke, there are 4 schools with Linton. Anyway the largest county, area wise, in the state. But yeah it would be great to get White River and Bloomfield started on a coop football program. A new 2A program. Wondering what the nickname would be?A Wolverine and a cardinal. 

They WRV, go by “Wolves” I think. So? Bird dogs?

I think this might be what happens to Cincinnati, they need to withdraw from their Alabama game.

An Eastern Greene/Bloomfield football co-op team would be a perfect fit, and a good experiment for the IHSAA to sanction.

 

Not a bad idea , a little traveling involved.  Just an aside. , the county doesn’t really need three schools relative to population and could combine scholastic offering’s ,greater than each have ,if combined. But geographically this county is so big, It would be a hardship on students and parents to close any of the existing schools. 
 

Nate Cox for Nevada at 6’9”. 
Any chance a Fort Wayne historian remembers how tall Chris Ditto was? I was thinking 6’9”.  

For quarterback

The example that they gave was last years scenario, Alabama (1) Florida (7) .If Either one of those not getting in But PAC 10 winner Oregon (27) getting in. This wouldn’t pass the “ fair” test. So that is the sticking point for 8. 

Or keep it the same? 
I am  in favor of existing format for college playoff.

May be, don’t try me!

I’m saying Carmel don’t want in , The Grove doesn’t need them either. Cathedral is just peachy, not in a conference. New conference or nothing. 

Just now, DE said:

HSE and Brownsburg?

Ok, are they elite enough though?

MEC- Carmel, Westfield, Zionsville, Cathedral, Center Grove, Fishers. 
 

Metro Elite Conference

Hence the reason HCC ADs will prevail and Carmel will not get in.  

The start of a new metro conference. 

That was just too funny to pass on. I understand we all get on the edge of our chairs when DT gets on a roll. A little jeopardy music please.  

There has to be all hands on deck approach to get these programs back to being respectful. Parents, administrators, athletes, coaches staff among other program influences..If one or two of them don’t cooperate then is kind of like a three legged dog. But obviously there is one or more influencers with in these specific programs that’s not doing it’s share to run a program. So identify and do.
