(2 - 2) North Knox @ (4 - 2) Linton
hhpatriot04 replied to itiswhatitis's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Good night for Knox county teams. -
Video from WTWO (Terre Haute) TV of the Vincennes vs. Evansville North game For the Alices #5, #8, #9, #19 making some nice plays.

The Vincennes Sun-Commercial has it up (everything past the first two pargraphs is behind a paywall). It's true online ad revenue isn't enough to sustain a purely newspaper-turned-online media. I believe there are two realistic solutions: - For "big" stories you don't put them behind a paywall for 24 hours - For all stories, the technology exists to know how long you are "active on that page" after 10 seconds, media websites could deduct a fraction ($0.50) from your PayPal or other online payment services to give you complete access to that story.

Oh wow, I'm 9 hours ahead of you and have some Twitter and C&P reading to do. ETA: The North game isn't on the front of the online sports page... subject to change and I don't want to speak ill of an old employer despite being bought out by Gannett (USA Today) 🙄 I predict in the next two years a SW Indiana sports website will appear... the Dubois County (Jasper) newspaper has also very recently sold, as has the Bloomington Herald-Times. All at one time, provided stellar sports coverage in Southern Indiana. I think b the same goes for New Albany, Bedford, and Terre Haute.

Congratulations, Chatard. Don't know if this was the case in reality, but it was in the smack talk. Just never give the Trojans any locker room material. Either way win or lose, you're going to get smacked in the mouth on the field. And now they know. Run it back at Merrillville or halfway in Lafayette. Same outcome 9 of 10 times. 3A should be very concerned heading into the tournament.

Rather predictable, outcomes. I thought Jasper-Castle would be a defensive slugfest. Interested to read the story and forum commentary. Both need an offensive shock heading into the sectional. Castle still controls a share of the SIAC if they win out. Whoa, I read the North score backwards. Props to the Alices. A 5A school has to be able to put points on the board even without the starting QB. Hopefully that's fixed before the sectional.

Calumet vs. Gibson Southern
hhpatriot04 replied to Boilernation's topic in The Indiana High School Football Forum
Good luck. Looking for Brady Allen to have a coming out game 325+ passing yards, if he gets enough snaps. Get it done Titans. ETA: With the early start, I might be to listen live to The Bash. If there is a hush, hush live video stream on FB or YouTube, please PM me. -

You're fine. I disagree with the premise of this thread, but it does not violate forum rules. -

Stay away from forum violations, it's gameday. The thread will be closed and posters warned/suspended if it continues to need constant moderation oversight. -

:Flush: making every issue he can in HS football about him. Why is he a afforded this platform? This isn't his first rodeo. Contraction threads have lost traction, so now this is the content he wants to "contribute" to this forum? This thread is such a disgrace compared to the Linton-Rensselear thread that highlights everything right with high school football, the purpose of this forum. -
Good luck to the Titans and representing SW Indiana and the PAC.

I think there is a misunderstanding in this thread. In normal years, teams from across Indiana can play teams from Kentucky (i.e. Warren Central vs. Louisville Male), but this year Kentucky schools can only play teams in counties which are on the border. Unless, I'm the only one misunderstanding...

Township schools, as you know, enjoy *some* of the benefits of P/Ps and Marion County donut county schools like CG, NP, Zionsville, Carmel, Fischers, Westfield, etc. enjoy. Especially in the age of open enrollment. -
See, I told you years ago South Gibson was becoming Northern Vanderburgh HS... Rules like this, and the Indiana travel rule for HS sports, just confuse me. GS, which plays few players two-ways, could go for a Burgeondy (or whatever the color is actually called) vs. White Scrimmage (obviously put the QB in a green jersey). When will the Titans break out some gold unis? Picturing some pretty interesting combos like the Bucs...

I think CalPreps uses some sort of measure of historical program success in their system. Sagarin does, but it fades away when all the teams are "connected" across the state -- usually Week 4, maybe Week 6 this year. For closed conferences, Sagarin must keep the previous year's success as a factor. I don't think there's much to compare between two groups of teams which share no common opponents, otherwise.

Chatard is possibly the exception to that rule. Eventually, they'll stay up in 4A and have to contend in the sectional with Roncalli (assuming they remain in 4A). -

:flush: is trying to argue NP can't reload like top Indy P/Ps... waiting for @crimsonace1 if he wants to stoop to this level of discourse. -
It can be a positive or negative at lower levels given how involved the league's administration is, the pedigree of the parent, and the need for the varsity HC to heard in the community if he or she can't have direct contact with the feeder programs. The best is to have an experienced youth coach, who is trusted and prepared by the time their children will become their players. At the varsity level in football, even relatives of (assistant) coaches had it harder and were often the first to be called out when an issue cropped up. I also understand now why it makes sense sometimes for a coach to take a step back and enjoy watching their children play HS sports instead of staying on the bench. Also, I've seen HoF SS baseball coach Kuester coach three of his sons without issue on the state level. I believe all played in college and some have gone on to coach.
