Or maybe Center Grove could stop being a school full of racism. You ever stop to think why MULTIPLE schools don’t want to play you in sports and why a Superintendent at another district threatened the AD that she would not let her son travel to Center Grove for sporting events due to repeated racist attacks? Your comment just proves why now SEVEN schools have dropped Center Grove in at least one sport over the last three years.

I concur. Tech grad, new AD as well. Over.

They do for every post, not just one in particular.

Things will come back around. They always do. CG has beaten everyone the past few years badly. Both Warren and Ben Davis have a full cupboard of players moving forward. I’m confident that the MIC will win another title before the HCC. I’m also confident Carmel will win another title before CG. Finally, BD and CG are only on a 1-year hiatus so BD could have the opportunity to play IMG. I’d have taken that every single time I’m offered because the gate will be massive with all the interest.

I’d agree with everything you said, except do we actually know that this is the reason Carmel is dropping CG? I would say no. In my personal opinion, it says more about Center Grove that all MIC schools and now Carmel have alienated them.

Weeks 2, 4, 5 and 7 are open.

How? CG currently has 4 open dates they’re struggling to fill. Carmel has 1.

I have to stand behind what I said, regardless. Can’t back down now. I picked Cathedral in 2022 with CG as my #2. i said 2023 is the year of the Giant, in both basketball and football.

Based on my dealings with CG, I have no issue with ever having to travel out there any longer. My kid is graduated now, but I still enjoy going to the games when possibly.

I wouldn’t be opposed to this, but I’m not the decision maker either.

Ben Davis has a plethora of talent returning in 2023. Jason Simmons is leaving for Miami Ohio to become the running backs coach, which is his alma mater.

Southport can’t be too happy that their conference foes consist of Bloomington North, Bloomington South, Columbus North, TH North and TH South. Southport isn’t good enough for the MIC, but I just can’t see them fitting into the Mid-States. This might seem crazy, but Southport should replace Tech in the NCC.

You’re not wrong. Between basketball and football at BD, fans on the west side have much to be excited about.

Jeff Saturday should apply.

Ben Davis returns a large majority of their team. They might get walloped still, but BD should be very excited about its program.

Sorry. My mistake. I do know for a fact that the MIC schools do enjoy the relationship they have with Carmel, but understand that, beyond football and basketball, Carmel dominates the relationship. Let’s also face the fact that Carmel has dominated these two sports recently as well. The MIC could still wind up winning multiple state titles this school year without Carmel or CG in the conference.

I don’t believe any of what you’re insinuating was mentioned.

That’s not a flex. I’m saying that most students have no clue who Jennings County is and will ultimately get bored playing them. It might be great for 2023, but they won’t sustain success and the students (players and patrons) will lose interest.

It has been posted by BD Football and Kyle Neddenriep of the Star on Twitter. No article, but that comes directly from the source.

This is correct.

Ft Wayne Concordia?

Center Grove realizing it’s harder to fill that football schedule than they imagined. I’m sure their fans are having a blast playing Jennings County in a big rivalry match in basketball on a Friday. This is about more than football and basketball. It’s no secret that MOST MIC schools do not compete well against CG and Carmel in the country club sports. I firmly believe that Carmel would be welcomed back, regardless of the butt kicking they might take in certain sports.

Ben Davis will bring in national power IMG Academy on September 8, replacing Center Grove on their 2023 schedule. BD has a loaded roster this upcoming year, but IMG will be an incredible challenge.

Yes. This is an excellent hire. O’Shea simply never had to put time into feeder programs and it showed over his tenure. Kankakee is similar in demographics to North Central.

That’s fine, however, the MIC was dogged for keeping Carmel and Center Grove logos on the spring sports trophies this past year. Not your fault obviously.
