No Comment 😂

Stigma > gas / travel. IMO. South Newton informed their teams they are going 8 man football this year. Frontier and Benton Central have just announced looking for games for weeks 3 and 8.

No Doubt, it was my understanding that many times those games were done with a multi game same day events.

I have no issues with Co Op as an idea to get participation, but how to do it is the ultimate quagmire for me personally. I think state leaders and myself included from my personal belief, before CO OPs, schools should adopt 8 man. Not sure why INDIANA FB programs right now has some angst against it. Especially when there is a path to go from 8 to 11 when numbers improve. It's a change yes, but if the goal is to play a game of tackle football then 8 man is an OUTSTANDING choice for programs who are in this boat of this conversation . 8 man has over 1000 HS teams over 30 states. Not for Males Girls Flag is gaining momentum nation wide at HS and College levels

RACK IT !!!!!

Perhaps, but be interesting see what it looks like 3 years from now, vs 3 months since enacted Many reason why families choose to go places,,sure some WINNING is #1 or program culture, but that is nowhere near the sole or some could argue not even first priority, but for sure a factor for many.

Typically IFCA will come out that Monday leading into Week 1, so after the Week 0 scrimmage is my guess.... from my memory

Bingo There is not 1 admin in the state of Indiana that would be okay taking on CO OP that pushes their school "UP A CLASS" to just take on a handful of athletes..... Now, if a Co Op model is set up where that is NOT an automatic take on full enrollment of said school then let's talk........but until then, as is, no chance

DEM FIGHTING WORDS !!!!!!!

you got him good Tooney !!!! 2 years later..... That "Rook" probably was right then and we know he was NOW

HUDL great for large budgets...... HUDL. kills small schools with tough funding situations. Our package last year was 11K....... not sure how much longer that is sustainable for us Our Stat guys currently. (2) one is on clipboard for defense the other IPAD for HUDL LIVE STAT, then I will personally tag the Offense plays, formations, play call, yardage etc etc etc on data in Hudl Library, when I get done with that, I compare it to the live stats that was done and they are usually pretty darn close few yards here or there..... Defense Staff will do the same and stat tackles etc off film to compare to clipboard. We have another volunteer who runs EZ Drone and we then have a youth coach upstairs with yet another IPAD, to just live record each play upstairs. that is our version of "HUDL REPLAY". With a roster around 30-40 any given year, we have multiple 2 way players, so yeah, we are not setting up TVs Tents and have full on platoon meetings on our sidelines considering on change of possession we typically have about 2 on 2 off these days. :). And yes many times when we played schools bigger than us in our conference or a 2a school like Andrean with 80 guys on their roster and 16 coaches and 2 platoon many places, so when they come off and see and adjust in game, it does become an advantage, but don't take this part as sour grapes at all, just the reality of the technology investment availability and all that deal

It was literally the proposal..... combine enrollment..... shot down..... So Sheridan says, we will Co-Op with TC: That pushes Sheridan from 1a to 2 a for ALL THEIR SPORTS..... good luck with selling that to your school when you're taking on a few football players from another school. The model as written for Co Op is what I have the issue with, because it effects too much overall for 1 sport in this case football. This is a local Co op proposal,

overall Team speed goal improvement was accomplished and then some: that seems to be the biggest take away for me so far it seems.

waiting for the first P2 (getting to that real fast it seems).football team turns down BILLIONS for 51% of revenue control .....

The issue with the Co-op model is it seems as if the combined enrollment would take, so lets say, Tri Central Co-op'd with Tipton: TC sends maybe 9 total players who want to play, awesome, right, however, that model stated then for enrollment classification purposes, Tipton would have to absorb the ENITRE TC population number, so lets say, Tipton is 475 students (no idea, but I know middle pack 2a). TC may have 350 students: Tipton new Classification number would be 825 and now in 3a. Why would Tipton be willing to have that happened to allow 9 football players to join . I believe that is why that model way it was proposed, probably led to the fail vote, zero knowledge of the reason by it was shot down personally, but if I am an ADMIN in those area Principal Meetings where many times these things come up, cannot imagine many of those folks willing to allow that to affect their schools to that degree. EASIEST SOLUTION: Really is from meeting I have attended: 8 MAN FOOTBALL : It is a VERY good option to keep kids playing, even schools to have JV games go to 8 man instead of cancelling.
