Friday, Aug. 22 Boone Grove at Glenn, 7:30 pm Bremen at Churubusco, 7:30 pm Jimtown at Wawasee, 7 pm North Judson at Knox, 8 pm Tippecanoe Valley at Plymouth, 7 pm Triton at LaVille, 7 pm I have a sweep for the INSC teams this week. Boone Grove and Glenn might be close and Triton and Laville could be a close one. Both are at home so I will give them the edge.

That might make sense, because I notice it didn't happen on every play.

Why does the BJ signal an X made by crossing his arms over his head? What does that indicate? It happens pre snap

Triton has some big dudes as well. More athletes and speed than size, but they do have some kids that look the part.

10 Public Schools and 15 Private Any additions or subtractions?

Indiana high schools currently the best for athletes? According to one study, which accounts for survey feedback from students and parents—accounting for "reviews of athletics, number of state championships, student participation in athletics, and the number of sports offered at the school"—and data from the U.S. Department of Education, these are the top 25. 25. Scecina Memorial High School (Indianapolis) Total number of sports: 20 24. West Lafayette Junior/Senior High School Total number of sports: 18 23. Crown Point High School Total number of sports: 21 22. Jasper High School Total number of sports: 21 21. Penn High School (Mishawaka) Total number of sports: 20 20.

I am not so sure it will be the larger schools pulling from the smaller. I think you will see a shift from kids who are borderline players or non-starters at larger schools, going to smaller outlying schools, where they can be a difference maker. Instead of small fish in a big pond, go be the big fish in the little pond.

When did West Lafayette get turf?

I was thinking about how schools could benefit from the one-time transfer rule. I was wondering if it would affect city schools having kids transfer to county schools, more so than inter-city school transfers. For example, South Bend schools losing players to LaVille or Bremen What does it take to influence kids to leave one program for another? Is it playing time, better facilities, better program, better school choice? Could be all of these I suppose, but wanted to get thoughts on how big this could be in some areas of the state.

Unless you are a private school that can recruit. I agree with you regarding public schools, who are forced to play the hand they are dealt.

Add Benton Central to this group Carroll, Delphi, Winamac, Pioneer, North Judson and Rensselaer

Not a chance...Jays BIG.

Perhaps KV, NJ, Rensselaer are looking to create something??? I can’t recall the old conference they were all in together but maybe they are getting the band back together

I heard that Rensselaer has given notice that they intend to leave the Hoosier Conference. Am I late to the party here, or is this ‘new’ news? If so, what are their plans?

Schedule Benton Central..both teams are struggling, and it is only 30 minutes away. BC might need to consider changing conferences as well.

How many kids on CC's team start two ways?

I was scrolling through some tournament history and noticed that Tippecanoe Valley made it to the State Finals in '77, which they lost to Ritter, and again in '79, which they won against HSE. But I have a question about how they only played three tournament games to get there. There was a Sectional, Regional, and State game. Now it takes five or six games to reach the finals. What were the playoffs like back then?

Attica and BC should start scheduling each other. Only what 30 mins apart?

Bremen at East Noble - Tough opener on the road for Bremen, giving the edge to EN @ home John Glenn at Boone Grove - John Glenn is looking to fill a lot of holes, might need a cpl weeks to iron the wrinkles out Knox at North Judson - Tough one to go with Knox on, being at Judson and a revamped OL for Knox. But McLaughlin is too much to handle LaVille at Triton - Ground and pound might be the name of the game in this one. I expect a defensive battle and LaVille gets the W in a close one NorthWood at Jimtown - Northwood to much for Jimmies in this one Wawasee at Tippecanoe Valley - TV coming off a great year, gets another season started on the right track, and wins big in this one

Why are they calling it the conference INSC, not the original NSC name?

Retirement? Or will move on?

Looking to get a feel of what the new NSC will be like in its first year back. With Knox and Tippy Valley's huge seasons last year, I think they will be primed as favorites to win the conference. I wonder how much both Knox and Valley return? With Glenn and Jimtown looking for new head coaches, it will be a big hire at both schools. Jimtown's ex-head coach Stoner, leaving for Fairfield seems almost like a step backward, wondering if he had ties to Fairfield.

What a way to start a new conference, two teams looking for new coaches at John Glenn and Jimtown. Is Stoner's move to Fairfield a bit surprising? I do not know any background info on him, is he from Fairfield or have any ties to the school? Glenn, not sure if they will fill their position internally or not? What does TV and Knox have coming back after having great seasons a year ago?

City recruiting…at its finest!

This is a big advantage, especially if those players are OL/DL....see it in every class and it can make a difference between winning and losing games.
