Excuse my ignorance but is there any other timed sport in high school (soccer maybe) that has a mercy rule?

Tell City applied for the PLAC a few years back then withdrew their application. I think it centered around the PLAC not having swimming or tennis or something not being a conference sport. Tell City parents wanted the opportunity for their kids to be all-conference in their sport and wouldn't have it had they joined the PLAC.

Sure. I had a kid do something dumb last year and we were only down 18. Wish he had waited until we were down 35.

If you're down 35 at the half and have kids you can't control, you have more problems than just worrying about a mercy rule.

Congratulations Coach!

He does it just to get a response. He was gone for a few months. His mom must've put him back on her data plan.

I doubt Cannelton hates females, unless you know something I don't. If Cannelton offered girls Cross Country, they would offer 1 more sport for girls than boys. Title 9 works both ways.

I want to know which schools do not offer cross country and why?

Twice!

The area around SC seems to be growing and obviously the basketball team has been successful. Is this considered a good job or are they still trying to find their footing with football? 2017 was a good year for them but was that just an outlier?

No idea. I could always be wrong too. I was wrong once before so there is a precedence.

Possibly. I might not be right also.

A shoe dropped yesterday that would be in line with what I was eluding to.

I feel like the number of assistant jobs posted on IFCA site are a reflection of there being a place to post assistant jobs. In the past most of the time, HC's recruited their area. Now Facebook and other sites allow for a much larger search area. Schools have always used lay coaches and will continue to because school faculties aren't comprised of coaches only. Speaking of which, if anyone is interested in coaching at Crawford County, let me know. I designed some sweet polos for next season.

If anyone on here knows someone who will be looking for a teaching job soon and also wants to coach, we have a middle school computer science, math, and special education jobs open for next school year as well as an elementary position open. The insurance is great. I don't pay anything except a dollar for vision and a dollar for dental a year. The pay is pretty good as far as teaching jobs go in the area. I'm a lot of fun to be around too!!!

I hate to say. They were supposed to announce at 5 this evening. In case not everyone knows yet, I'll wait.

I'm going to guess the option goes. But if the staff stays, they could keep it. They do a nice job teaching it.

Paoli hired someone today.

West Washington and Paoli do such a great job of making sure all of their athletes get in the weight room year round. I feel like the other schools in the conference just hope to have success with talented classes coming through but WW and Paoli do whatever they can to ensure they get the most out of every class. And in reality, this isn't a coaching thing necessarily. This is a school corporation/culture/community thing. #envious

I enjoyed talking with the Southridge coaching staff a few years back. Grabbed some pizza. That's a model worth following. Real humble group of guys.

Correct, we don't measure our success on how many sectionals Gibson 'Southern hasn't won the past few years.

Not new. Just gets old listening to the chest thumping sometimes. Especially when Gibson Southern will field a team of kids with 0 sectional championships in 2019. Same as my kids.

Hate to interrupt the "Gibson Southern is Incredible" stream but is there a time table for when this merger will be official?
