Coach Nowlin Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Quote Paid attendance was up at every level of this year’s football tournament from a year ago and 5% overall. Good matchups and good weather are always key to the football tournament attendance. Quote Paid attendance was up at every level of this year’s football tournament from a year ago and 5% overall.

Robert Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Quote from the report: Good matchups and good weather are always key to the football tournament attendance. Please seed the sectionals. Use good, neutral stadiums such as Ohio. https://ihsaa.org/Portals/0/ihsaa/documents/about ihsaa/minutes/2019-20/011620.pdf?ver=2020-01-20-155604-767 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was always the rumor back when the Bremen AD, Frank DeSantis, was also on the IHSAA Executive Board. I have my doubts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also heard fun stories about coaches stealing things and publishing things. The internet makes it harder to cheat now. You can learn a lot if you just sit back and listen to ADs and administrators. You can also see how hirings work and networking. The good ol' boy network is alive and well in Hoosierland.

MarshallCounty Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 I didn't watch the 5a and 6a games becuase I went out for the evening. I say around during the day and watched the other games for 2 days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have my doubts. Bremen has always been bounced around geographically. Sometimes we are in the Northeast, Northwest, North Central. Back in the days that was the case and the same can be said 25 years later. We have hard sectional opponents from Eastside to Whiting and as far south as Oak Hill.

Hmmm. DeSantis had his way for years. Others will chime in, or won't. The PPP's were thrown together for years in the Indy area. Jimtown was pushed down towards Fort Wayne. There are others in other areas. People lobby and boundaries are moved. People are crooked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not my best choice of words. I've worked with and for a lot of great administrators. They get their own way, generally, and most of the time. As my daughters say, periodt. 6 hours ago, Temptation said: You live a sad life my man... No, not really. Just a poor choice of words on my part. I've taught with great people in great schools in three different countries and cultures, but as mentioned above, everyone looks out for themselves. Hoosiers are no different. I've sat through school closings and coaches being moved and got to see some real slimy things in both from top admins. You can have your rosy glasses. I'll keep mine realistic.

Doubling down on a blanket statement of “people are crooked” with another “everyone looks out for themselves.” Bold move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, it has been my experience in the schools and businesses that I've taught and worked in that no matter who is at the top, they are generally looking to make the best decisions based on their own interests. Any questions? Happy to answer the best I can. I may not match wits with you, apparently. Edited January 21, 2020 by Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
