Bosse, Harrison, and Central gates would probably be less than Wash, BV, and MTV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be possible.... when GS moves up to 4A in a couple years (enrollment).... Will the PAC want a school that big? Could GS find a buddy and move to the SIAC? HEADS WOULD ROLL!

They also picked up MD by moving to SIAC, so the "new" good gates would be MD, Castle and Reitz (but I honestly don't know how well Reitz fans travel to Jasper). No question Bosse, Harrison and Central would be much less gate than Wash, BV & Mt. V. Bosse did have some decent crowds last year being that they were competitive. Coincidently, Kyle Sokeland has an article on the 5th anniversary of the SIAC expansion in today's Courier. https://www.courierpress.com/story/sports/high-school/2024/05/21/a-look-at-sw-indiana-athletics-five-years-after-conference-realignment/73726204007/ Edited May 21 by tango 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gate/Concession $$$$$$$$$$$$$ We miss this game on our schedule. Terribly miss it. This is historically one of our best rivalries (SR would be the next) as we were 11-10 against them....so at least we can always say that we got a game on them. Not to mention that not one Jasper coach has a winning record against HH. Love that one! 6 hours ago, Titan32 said: This is spot on....everyone having their non-conference games on different weeks made it tough. We would have what everyone wanted if Boonville had played along, including HH having the cake schedule they seem to enjoy having. Moch therapy session with HH AD: Now repeat after me....it's ok if we win state and are 14-1...it's ok if we win state and are 14-1. Now repeat after me....it's ok if our opponents average more than 7 points...it's ok if our opponents average more than 7 points. I laughed too hard at this....because it's true. By the way, not everyone enjoys that schedule. Edited May 21 by HHPatriots 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is the total football attendance is about the same. 7 hours ago, oldtimeqb said: Bosse, Harrison, and Central gates would probably be less than Wash, BV, and MTV. I would disagree. The old big 8 schools typically didn't travel well to Jasper (VL included) unless their teams were good, which for that last 20 years was few and far between for most of them. If I had to choose the current schedule or the old schedule, I choose the current schedule. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worried about the pass routes being called, the strength of schedule … LOL. The Semi-State champs seem to know what they’re doing. 🤫 On another note, where will Sean be taking his talents in the fall?

Reitz may have a winning record against Jasper, but they aren't a small school and haven't played all that many times. BTW, good to see you back on the GID..

I must admit....the one GO DEEP (game-winning play) and little sisters of the poor won them a semi-state. But they can make themselves even better....hope they don't listen to me lol. I hear the DeLong kid has decided to pass up multiple scholarship offers to follow his older brother into Mechanical Engineering locally. The guaranteed internship and industry connections were more valuable than the scholarship dollars in his view. It appears that football needs some kids more than they need it.

I don't know, but I think if I had a chance to speak to his dad, I'd tell him that he had done well raising that kid. I mean ultimately what is going to pay the bills, right? Maturity wins. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
