  1. Unless I am wrong they dont pay rent. They used to but that stopped several years ago. They both have as much room to fit stands as they did at Harrison. I agree the field itself is good at North and Harrison. My biggest complaint about Harrison is the way and where they gates are set. With the poor choice on where to put the tennis courts the parking is horrible. Its as close to part across the Llyod and use the overpass but when you do there are no gate near that end.
  2. I see talk on here about Ft Wayne fields and now see 3 private schools and the talk of upgrading their fields. The question that I am curious of are how many fields are used in Ft Wayne and are they at public schools or private. Here in Evansville all public schools now have their own field but the 2 private schools do not.
  3. It was the best from this side of the field though. Thats the same year we beat Columbus East 61-60 the prior week. After those 2 weeks winning state seemed odd. Although it was state it had no ways near the excitement.
  4. Considering the situation it cant get much bigger than that.
  5. Come on, you are a REITZ person I assume by your name and you mis-spell it. I heard one name mentioned for Reitz but probably was just talk. I dont believe anything I hear until its official.
  6. I agree with the first part. We get spoiled by the success and some expect it every year. Things are on a down turn but we will be back on top like many times before. As for your second statement, get your facts straight. Andy wasnt fired. From things Ive read it appears he has no desire to go somewhere else to coach in the near future. More towards spending time with family and having a normal life. Anywhere a head coach is, even consitantly losing schools, takes alot out of you and alot of time away from family.
  7. Memorial 20-14. Kind of getting tired of the talk the last few weeks about no one gave Memorial a chance this year. I for one, said at the start of the year Memorial would be the best in the SIAC yet again. Not saying they couldnt have made it back to Lucas in 3A but 4A was an easier path this year. No real tough teams except East Central, which got knocked out prior to facing Memorial. I was lookin forward to that matchup. D has been good for Memoiral the past 2 years but overshadowed by the offense. Offense is still pretty good but the D is shut down. I would be stunned if East Noble score more than 14.
  8. Not really, depends on where you are. About anything north or east we have to do that. Next year with Vincennes and Jasper joining the SIAC we will be going to a different time zone twice every regular season depending on how the schedule falls. And those 2 teams will be doing it several times a year. As for the distance for a sectional game...I know you are talking this year but a few years ago we had Northview in our sectional and had to go up there. 126 miles. The alignment this year is insance. If the teams would have won out Princeton and Gibson Southern could have played in the semi-state. Not sure the distance but 10 miles apart at the most. The 3A must have been set up without looking at where the schools are. Ones near the Illinois border going to the Bloomington and Salem area in 3 different secetioanls instead of keeping east teams in east and west in west.
  9. I said possible, not likely. Memorial shouldnt have much trouble this week but if Mater Dei and Central win I would be very surprised if its by more than a touchdown.
  10. Very possible memorial will be the only SIAC team standing going into sectional finals week.
  11. Too bad it took until week 9 for the coaches to figure out Brickey can throw if you keep him in the pocket instead of this crazy roll out stuff and passing behind the line. Havent seen any numbers but he probably had a fourth of his season total in passing yards in the past 2 games. Keep him in the pocket and he can throw. Few high school QBs can throw accurately on the run while rolling out. I know a loss is a loss but at least it was respectable unlike the regular season game. Now time for basketball. Odd saying being from Reitz but the next couple years could be something very good for us there.
  12. Should be at Enlow because at that point Central would have had at least 1 home game and Memorial none.
  13. And large student body? At 1250 only Bosse and Central have a smaller enrollment than Harrison in the SIAC, of the public schools.
  14. Gibson, not Gipson. And what does them moaking a run have to do with the SIAC? Just wondering.
  15. Coming from a Reitz person its nice to see the Bowl mentioned on a thread not about them. As awesome as it is I am sure there are some better out there. Just havent seen them personally.
  16. Totally agree. Especially when they call that roll out to his left. Have seen 1, maybe 2 high schoolers that can make that pass. Just putting him in a bad spot. And throw the damn ball downfield. We have some receivers and some height, USE IT. Stop throwing behind the line and expecting to get the blocks after the catch to gain yards.
  17. Not meaning to point out any one kid but there needs to be some adjustments at QB. Way, way too many turnovers and looks like it has blown his confidence up. Even to the point of effecting his punting. He was much better the little he played last year. Poor play calling doesnt help. 3rd and long and call a pass play behind the line of scrimmage. Happens many times a game. Not taking 3 at the end of the half with a short field goal with a very good kicker. However it goes down though will still be there rooting them on but looks like a long year.
  18. I dont know much about them other than they got blown out last week 42-6. Was 8-2 last year but lost 5 games by forfeit because of an ineligible player. Most of their scores last year were very lopsided in their favor.
  19. So if your info is true, which Im not disputing, the IHSAA dropped Evans' suspension from being ejected from the last game he played? I know it was 2 years ago but as far as I know, and under everyone elses rules, that still applies. He was ejected in the regional for 2 personal fouls in the loss to East Central in their last game in state. And if you have no line to block it really doesnt matter how good your runners are. Not going to be very successful. I know it was just 1 game but from that it appears Memorial is head and shoulder above everyone else.
  20. Not sure about 2 but 1 shouldnt have been due to being kicked out of the last IHSAA game he played in. But even missing 2 or 3 or 4 its surprising to get shut down by a less than average THS team. Unless they have made drastic strides from previous years. And the Courier article said they got 4 personal fouls so.... Pretty bad start to the SIAC all around. Only 3 winners.
  21. Most likely so. And they have a much tougher opponent next week. A usally big and hard hitting Owensboro Sr. team.
