DTs Dandy Dozen - Thumbs Up/Thumbs Down

[Guest DT]

Thumbs Down 

1. Ben Davis - horrific 0-2 start for the once mighty Giants with two mercy rule blowouts to boot.  Who would have ever thunk it?  Big problems on the west side.  They claim Covis has impacted lower socio economic groups than higher.  Perhaps that is so.  Maybe its time for the Giants to ease up on the non conference schedule.  The MIC is a meat grinder, and Brownsburg and Avon dont make it any easier in the oipening non con weeks.  Thinking maybe Cascade and Beech Grove as two possible replacements.

2. Knox - 0-2    With Russ Radtke taking over, expectations for a deep state run and a possible blue ring are all the rage in Redskin Country.  But an 0-2 start has certainly taken some of the wind out of the Skins sails.  Coach radtke will get it right, probably starting this week against visiting 1A Culver.  

3. FW Snider  0-2    The Panthers are winless and on the opposite end of blowout losses to FW North and Carroll.  Snider has been outscored 89-29 in those two defeats.  This one might be even uglier than the Ben Davis start.  Concordia is up next for the Panthers, and the Cadets played always tough Homestead very close in a 7-0 loss last week.  FWS could be looking at its first 0-3 start in forever.  

4. Chesterton  0-2   Expectations have been growing for CHS football over the past several seasons, and the Trojans entered the 2020 season with some momentum.  A season opening loss to former DAC Rival 4A Hobart and a shocking 20-16 loss to 2A stalwart Pioneer have The Cheese looking for redemption, which will be difficult to find with aggressive Michigan City coming to town this Friday night.

5. South Bend St Joe  0-2   Been a rough go for St Joe now for a while.  The Indians took a 42-0 whipping at home last week against Northridge, their 12th loss in their last 14 games.  very un St Joe like.  The next two weeks are an opportunity to right the ship against NIC foes John Glenn and SB Adams, before the annual dogfight against New Prairie.

6. Western Boone  0-2    The two time defending state champions are winless after season opening losses to Sheridan and Western.  The Stars will get things cleaned up this week against contraction candidate Crawfordsville.

Thumbs Up

 

1. Kankakee Valley  2-0   The Kougars (with a K) generally stumble out of the gate by losing to smaller schools, but 3rd year HC James Broyles appear to have his 2020 edition in gear early after impressive and dominating wins over rival Rensselaer and Wheeler.  KV has 3 very winnable games just ahead against SB Washington, North Newton and Munster, and could be 5-0 heading into a matchup with NCC rival Lowell in week 6.  Certainly, Broyles will not allow his boys to be looking ahead, but things are looking up in the Twin Cities of Demotte (Day-Mo-Tay) and Winfield.

2. Terre Haute North  2-0  Despite some pretty good teams over the years, Terre Haute high school football just gets nbo respect.  Booted from the MIC,  rejected by the SIAC, and generally neglected in Conference Indiana due to their remote location, the Terre Haute's have lived a nomadic high school football life, always looking for a long term and secure home.  Chris Barrett's 2020 THN Patriots are 2-0 so there is some to be celebrated in the Land of the Sycamore.  Bloomington South will give the Pats their first big test this week.

3. Center Grove  2-0    Not always does a team do exactly what it is expected to do, but the Trojans are doing just that.  Completely dominating.  This might be the most talented team in the history of Indiana High School football.  Expect to see a few NFL players emerge from this roster one day in the not too distant future.  CG shut out MIC Rival Warren Central last week, and the 3 week juggernaut that includes Carmel and Ben Davis over the next two weeks looks like a walk in the park for the stout Trojans.  Look for CG to run the table and finish in the Top 15 of the National Rankings by season end.

4. Merrillville  2-0   Brad Seiss is in his 6th season at Merrillville and has the program back to the elite status it enjoyed under previous Head Coaches Ken Haupt, Rick Wimmer, Jeff Yelton and Zac Wells.  The Pirates are loaded with talent on both sides of the ball and have speed to burn , which showed clearly in season opening wins over rival Andrean and 4A top ranked Hobart.  The Pirates open Duneland play this week against neighborhood rival Crown Point.  Merrillville and Center Grove could well be on a collision course that leads the two to a Class 6A state championship matchup.

5. Wawasee  2-0   Been a long time coming for the Warriors,   Its been pretty much downhill riding for WHS since that glorious 13-2 state runnerup season in 2004.  This program needs some positive mojo and now has it after shutout wins over Lakeland and West Noble to open the 2020 season.  Now it gets real.  A very solid Northridge team comes for a visit this Friday night.  Lets see how much the Wawasee program has progressed.  Good luck Warriors.  

6. Jasper  2-0  and Vincennes  1-1  The two new entrants into the Southern Indiana Athletic Conference have made their presence felt with impressive outings over the first two weeks.  The Wildcats opened at home with wins over Memorial and Harrison, while the Alices took out Bosse in Week One before dropping a 22-21 thriller to Reitz last week.  These two schools are a great addition to the SIAC and make a very strong and dynamic conference even stronger and more dynamic.  Should be another very fun week for SIAC fans as Jasper tangles with Reitz and Vincennes takes on Mater Dei.

Has St. Joe started the “Bishop Noll” slide? Or is this an aberration?

I think this is a temporary slide.  But it may be a couple more year.  The local Catholic League (ICCL) decided to cancel it's season this fall.

So there will be a lot of freshman who haven't played in over a year..

Also, unlike Indianapolis, South Bend/Mishawaka kids are free to attend either St. Joe or Marian.  Right now, Marian is the preference.

That’s sort of what it was like for Bishop Noll when Andrean became ascendant. Is enrollment holding steady?

Why has Marian eclipsed St Joe.

Marian has better athletes, better players, better coaching.  Is there a difference in tuition?

Does one have better facilities than the other?

Do both schools have good reationships with big brothers Mishawaka and Penn?

Forever is correct. Snider was founded in 1965.............an 0-3 start has never happened. Get em' while you can though, the future looks bright for the Panthers.

You're missing 3A runner-up Heritage Hills opening 0-2 against teams they have collectively beat 90 or so percent over the past 20 years. Yet somehow they are still ranked No. 15. All due respect to Mount Vernon and Tell City. Another challenge awaits with Boonville and a Navy committed RB/DB.

Don't know if it's a thumbs up or down, but of 2019s state champs, there are as many wins as there are non-games across the first two weeks of the 2020 season.
