  1. Turns out I was right in the first place. This is, in fact, another uninformed opinion based on a false premise. Consider it tossed off.
  2. My initial inclination was to simply toss this off as yet another uninformed opinion reached from a flawed premise. But instead I chose to give @Bash Riprock the benefit of the doubt and first ask him “what do you mean by ‘benefit of the doubt’ in the context of officiating?”
  3. No chance. Either way.
  4. As I understand it, the prohibition applies only to players while participating in the game. Keep in mind, “player” is a defined term in the rules. Rule 2-32-1: “A player is one of the 22 team members who is designated to start either half of the game or who subsequently replaces another player. A player continues to be a player until a substitute enters the field and indicates to the player that he is replaced, or when the substitute otherwise becomes a player.” A kid in uniform on the sidelines is not a “player.”
  5. I’m a firm believer in chasing your dreams … but always have a Plan B. Jack Kiser’s a great example. He’s taking his shot at the NFL. But he is prepared for bigger and better things after his playing days are over.
  6. Why… it’s brilliant!
  7. This topic is devoted to those schools who have taken steps to upgrade their schedules, creating some “measuring stick” games. Those schools deserve credit, and this is th3 place to acknowledge them. Big one coming to mind is Merrillville replacing 4A Hobart in Week 2 with 3 time defending 8A Illinois state champ Loyola Academy of Wilmette. A major, major upgrade.
  8. I would guess that, by now, he’s realized he’s not going to be a HC in the NFL. So, he took a job as a position coach. I think there are 2 possible reasons to do so: 1. He understands his ceiling is as an offensive coordinator, and he views this as a step on the path to that. 2. The job is a lot easier than being an OC, with less responsibility, and he’s just mailing it in these days.
  9. Perhaps. But they’re also mindful of the past, and striking while the iron is still hot.
  10. Congratulations to Noah Ehrlich, QB, Crown Point HS, the Indiana Gatorade Player of the Year. https://playeroftheyear.gatorade.com/winner/Noah-Ehrlich/40578
  11. Bears add Eric Bieniemy as running backs coach. A long time OC in the League and, until he left the Chiefs a few years ago, was annually among the leading candidates for a head coaching job. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/43655750/chicago-bears-hiring-eric-bieniemy-rbs-coach-source-says
  12. They had one good year, and now they’re capitalizing on it. Smart strategy … especially if there is doubt they’ll be able to reproduce that success.
  13. I have my popcorn ready. Going to sit down and watch @temptation and @Muda69 go at it.
  14. I don’t know. After all, we ducked Northern Illinois. 😉
  15. Turning the page on 2024. Here’s what lies ahead:
