Here might be a topic to discuss for a while.
Do you think that the South Bend schools help or hinder the rest of the schools in conference, in football?
Interested to see everyone's opinion
If a topic starts to drag we can always bad mouth South Bend.

Why did you automatically assume he meant grades? There are MANY things that affect eligibility!
You can't turn 20 by the scheduled date of the state finals of IHSAA Tournament Series in your sport.
You can't play under an assumed name.
You can't accept money or merchandise directly or indirectly for any athletic participation, in your sport.
You have to pass a physical.
You have to be enrolled in a school during the first 15 days of the semester and have to have enough practices in.
You have to have the proper paperwork if you transferred from another school.And the many other regulations that are in the bylaws including the point that YOU brought up. Their grades need to be in order.
Lets let TurfToe tell us what he meant tell us what he was referring to when he mentioned Washington's eligibility of players in football. Most of the factors that determine eligibility
can be determined long before the season starts. Grade are one of last factors that can be determined for eligibility. I'm betting TurfToe was referring to grades.

Welcome back Marshall County !!! Jimtown/Bremen will be fighting for 2nd/3rd in the conference. I don't see Bremen as the favorite IMO. They lost 4.5/5 of their offensive production. Most of the teams in the South were young last year. Clay well its Clay. They had difficulties just having 7 men on the line of scrimmage. I don't see Riley doing much. They lose their best player in Lee and Luuga transferred to Mishawaka. Besides the HC and OC, I don't think any coaches stayed. Jarvis was suppose to come back this season but was somehow pushed out. Think you'll be seeing Riley running Marion's old stuff, but I could be wrong. Jimtown's biggest threat this year is Johntu Reed. Most DC's will be trying to stop him this year. But, the team to beat this year is the Falcon's down in Walkertucky. They return their entire team minus 3 defensive players. They suffered some major injuries at QB/RB/Slot. But they are all healthy now. Rumor is they have a monster incoming freshmen TE/FB whose 6'2 195 lbs. Will see if he's ready to contribute. But, It should be a good year for football. Now that teams aren't suffering the restrictions from last year....Don't know what to say about Washington...will they have enough eligible kids to play?
How do you know Washington will have eligibility problems? I don't think the semester has ended and grades have not been determined. Maybe you have inside information about Washington that no one else knows.

Went to a Clay/Washington game last fall and there were 2 female officials.

The NIC is more than a football conference. Adams, Riley, and Washington have each won a conference title since reorganization. Riley and Adams are each rated in the top 10 in basketball this year. It's been a while since Penn and Elkhart have won a conference title. Also Washington girls is one of the top teams in the state. South Bend schools more than hold their own in two of the big 3 sports. I also think LaSalle Lion is living in the past if he thinks Penn has a following of fans like they used to in the 80's and 90's.

I hate seeing football stadiums and gymnasiums named after Administers. If you want to honor a principal name the principles office after him. Even the poorest coach has made a bigger contribution to the program than any Administrator has.

Great for your sons. How many of their teammates also did ballet and played sports? I bet not enough to build an athletic program at your school.

Clay won't drop sports, but consolidation may be in the offing. We shall see
I don't understand why a "Fine Aarts Magnet" would want sports at all. They don't attract many athletes.

This thread has been fun. I started the other day not realizing it would be this popular. No one’s beating anybody up or being overtly hostile. Keep dropping some good ones like the UC Santa Cruz Banana Slugs—OK, so that one doesn’t play in the IHSAA, but I’m sure you get my drift.

I believe that Central and Memorial played for a trophy known as the "Mangy Lion".
So to placate BOTH schools with consolidation, it honestly makes sense to have the moniker of Lions.
Good point Yuccguy. I forgot about the "Mangy Lion

Perfect.
I like Coachmen also. Many were pushing for "Crimson- Blazers" which would have taken a part of the nickname from both Memorial and Central.

Is Lions the best nickname the new Elkhart High School could come up with?

And Bremen
Bremen always seemed like a quality school system and athletic program. Could you explain to me why the number of Bremen students go to Marian?

There is some truth to that statement, Bremen kids are not as rough neck and rugged as they were in the past. I've heard Jimtown folks say the same in conversations. We need more farm stock and less Eddie Bauer stock.
I've heard the same thing said by Saint Joseph fans. There used to be many 1st and 2nd generation Polish kids who loved to compete for Saint Joseph and were tough hard-nosed kids. Now there are to many players @ Saint Joseph who have direct connections to Notre Dame and they and their parents think they're good football player because they are connected to ND but are really soft.

Last year both the starting quarterback and leading running back missed the Chatard game due to injuries. With both back I hope that Marian can put some points on the board this year.

Doesn't really matter that they opened in 1940. Nobody won a sectional until '85ish.
1985 was probably Adams best chance. They were ranked #3 in the state that year but lost to #1 Hobart.

This year at the Penn game it seemed like their sidelines were a lot less enthusiastic as they had been through the year. AFter seeing he emotion for years it was a somewhat different feeling.
It's easy to be enthusiastic when you winning big every game. Much harder when your losing.
-
Elkhart over Chesterton in a close one
Mishawaka over Adams - unless Mishawaka forfeits due to Covid-19 and Adams wins sectional without playing
Marian easily over Jimtown in rematch
Pioneer in a close one over Bremen

Is there any relationship between Ryan Lynch leaving the program to focus on baseball and Penn's decline? Ryan was probably the best athletic @ Penn at the time and was the starting QB his sophomore year.

GR, heck changes also need to happen at Saint Joe. Worst 5 year stretch in the history of the program.
When you have 3 or 4 sub par classes in a row poor records are going to be a result. There have been about an average of 15 freshmen in the program each year during the 5 year stretch. No ICCL this past fall won't help. A lot of people saw this coming.
