    Fair enough. Just seems like it would have made more sense to try and find someone before dropping the team down the road of similar talent!

    I'd be interested in knowing how that conversation sounded with NW since they weren't able to fill it.

    Is this becoming a thing at the high school level? Schedules being shifted due to "down/up" freshman/sophomore classes.

    Agreed on the first point. North white was originally picked up when west central left the conference. If I’m not mistaken it was only a 2 year contract so the contract just wasn’t renewed with nw.

    Late to responding to this but... Was playing Attucks really better than the alternatives? Did Pioneer just drop NW? Was this prior to the season?

    I mean it's great and all that the Pioneer community got to feel great about playing a "4A team from the big city" but anyone who has traveled outside of Cass County (or can use Google) knew this was going to be a game similar to playing North White.

     

    North White was dropped prior to the season starting. Attucks was the only team in the state with an opening that week. Other conversations were had with others schools but they didn't want the pain of changing their schedules as well.

    Friday, Sep. 13
    Bremen at Triton - This is the only game with some intrigue this week.  Triton has only beaten Bremen 2 times in the last 35 years.  I think Triton is capable of competing, but they won't.  Bremen has been looking forward to a winnable game on their schedule.  This will be a large Bremen win, one of only a couple on the season.  Next week against Clay is the other one.  Bremen 35-13
    Culver at West Central - Culver should control the game with methodical drives that end in scores.  Not a ton of scoring in this one, but I don't think it will be close.  Culver 28-6
    North Judson at Knox - Rivalry games can be unpredictable!  I love a motivated underdog in a rivalry game!  But I don't think this one will live up to the last couple of close games.  The Redskins should run away with this one.  Knox 35-14
    Pioneer at Caston - The only question in this game is:  Will either Lewellan be tackled tonight?  The Panther JV won't be able to keep from scoring.  Running clock won't help.  Pioneer 76-0
    Winamac at LaVille - The Warriors will probably get on the board in this one, but I don't see them moving the ball with any consistency.  The Lancers will score easily and often.  LaVille 45-7

    BOLD PREDICTION- Addai Lewellen WILL NOT be tackled tonight!

    Eh, thats debatable. Theres lots of people that want to see them fail. That's fine, i like it that way. 2012 through 2014 for the program was special and but all those people wanting them to fail made it a bit sweeter. Well get back to that. Well be decent next year and 2021 should be fun... I hope Barr is giving time cuz the influx of talent from the 4th through 7th graders football, basketball and baseball wise are making people hopeful. 

    Honest question- Do you think he’ll be given that chance if things continue this year like they have the last two?

    I feel i am the only person who can speak with absolute authority on all this ridiculousness.  

    IP Addresses, 2 step verification, and many other behind the scene actions that I have access to tells me a story.  

    This story is way different then the current narrative. 

    My man, Ultimate Warrior, take a HEAVY piece of advice from the 1 guy who actually green lighted your account , what you think it seems is farthest from the reality.   HOWEVER, based on your little diatribe, it looks like you we had an influx of Pioneer supporters sign up from last night....maybe some old friends of yours.   So you did accomplish that 

    ALOT OF WASTED ENERGY

    I know who you are. You don't fool me. 

    I know a Pioneer coach has a screen name he solely uses at his job, another when hes at home and another when hes at the school after practice. 

    I also know Pioneer coaches share a user name. You can lie all you want and say it doesn't happen but I know it does.

    I haven’t thrown shade at any kids!

    No one threw a hissy fit.

    You are trying to create your own hot take!

    Thank you very much for the kind words! We will have the program back to respectability soon. It just takes time when you start 4-5 freshman every year for 3 years! But we show up and play hard all game.

    SN has great kids and the FFA is TOP NOTCH out there! Still waiting on them to get The Pit squared away...

    Bremen over Triton - will be an ugly game as both teams are horrible!!!   21-13

    Culver over West Central - culver is to physical for WC to hang 40-8

    Judson over Knox - toss up game 21-20

    Pioneer over Cass - need I say more??  Lewellins get to rest 2nd half which is needed after being banged up last week.  Also a condition game as Pioneer was out of shape against Lancers!!   56-0

    LaVille over Winamac - may be closer than some may think!!  Can Lancers rebound from emotional loss last week....Winamac hung with Pioneer up til half week 2.   Not sure Lancers have found their identity on offense or anyone that wants to step up.  Might be an interesting game!! 21-8

    We have very different views of "hanging with"...

    It happened to my class when I was in 8th grade. Next game we beat Pioneer. I don't see any problem with it. 

    One of the kids i know said it worked...said they had good practices last week. 

    I know you want barr to fail but they are better then last year. On the OL/DL, better QB play, better receiver depth and more exp in the secondary. Only thing weaker is run game and linebackers. The morale is better and the kids get along better. 

    I honestly don’t give two craps about how Barr does. Two terrible seasons to start his tenure at Winamac and a third that is following the same path are not acceptable in that community and you know it.

    His offense is predictable and the defense is porous to say the least. Only bright spot is Compton and to me Barr is holding him back. The players are undisciplined and at times flat out lazy, and that starts from the top down. 

    Hard to go go to battle for a dude you don’t respect.

    Nevermind. I found out what you are talking about. 

     

    I agree with it 100 percent. Winamac is in a point of their program (year 3)  where they should compete atleast some of the game against the likes of Knox, Pioneer and LaVille. They did that for about 18 minutes against Pioneer.  Was only down 2 scores against Knox at half. The kids have got to do a better job at taking advantage of chances they are given and gotta quit making silly penalties. 

    And humiliating your kids is the best way to do that?? No wonder numbers are down.

    LaVille. 

    LaVille is gonna be pretty tough for the Warriors. They're bigger! They're stronger! They're faster! They've got more facial hair! 😂. I just hope the Warriors stay healthy, continue to gain experience and I hope they compete. They competed for a bit against Pioneer and I hope if they can get into the red zone against the lancers, they can punch it in for six.  3 of the first four games are always brutal for the Warriors. I hope this will prepare them for North Judson, Culver and Triton  who probably aren't on the level of Knox, Pioneer and LaVille but are gonna be tough to deal with.  No this was not a slant towards West Central or Caston. I think West Central is a team we match up well with and Caston who has lesser numbers will play their hearts out. 

     

    Probably another inside out jersey day next week for Winamac after the Laville game...

    Pioneer is no where close to the team they were last several seasons and it is showing this season.  They don’t have a QB, they have no depth, they do have speed but that will be neutralized by a team defense approach this Friday.  Laville has more depth upfront and more athletes IMO overall and their ability to be able to throw will win them this game.

    I guess we'll still show up this Friday even though LaVille has it won.
