Seriously, go check out the “Indiana HS Football Fans” Facebook page. Seems like 1/2 of those folks seem to think the DAC is the strongest football conference in the state.

No one you just named ever said that Merrillville had 17 D-1 players, as is being suggested now.. Merrillville did have as many as 20 college players in the entire program at all levels. Many Indy area schools do, too, I'm sure. Thank you for setting Lysander straight. He means well. 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merrlllville had no transfers from Chicago last year or this year. None. Zero. They had 5 transfers from Morton, 10 miles away Ly-man. Dont believe everything you see on Facebook or on the GID. Just one conversation prior to last years’ Merrillville/Chatard game on the GID. “Anyone know if Jr. Merrillville RB Lavarion Logan was at at Joliet Catholic last year? Name sounds familiar." Response: "Logan was at Merrillville as a freshman and Joliet Catholic as a sophomore...yes..you are right” A conversation from last year. I also recall hearing folks from Merrillville beating their chest about Morton kids playing for them last year. Not a single D1 kid last year played for Chatard in that Merrillville multi D1 kid curb stomp. Seriously, my sense was that NE Indiana kids moved between schools for Football pretty much on a daily basis…and often as not openly bragged about it....yet Catholic schools have some unfair advantage when the same kids play for them from 3rd to 12th grade and never leave the system. Also, for the record, there is a WORLD of difference between Cathedral and the Archdiocese schools like Chatard, Roncalli, Ritter and Scecina. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lysander Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Old Uncle Mark, Whatever our disagreement, I actually think you would be a fan of Chatard if you ever watched them. I'm not a Catholic but my wife and kids are and I adore the school.. I've often regretted not having attended there and felt some jealousy of my kids (even after writing the tuition check). These kids are quite often undersized but are fearless and will never back down. They will claw and scrape to the end...win or lose....most often winning. That ethos served my oldest well in college ball and, now, as an executive. I was fortunate enough to stumble into an athletic scholarship during college but my oldest son in 8th grade was a better football player than I ever was in HS because of CYO. In HS, he became even better.. Again, I think you would be a fan of our kids if you ever watched them Thank you. Bryan Miller 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, for the record, there is a WORLD of difference between Cathedral and the Archdiocese schools like Chatard, Roncalli, Ritter and Scecina. Lavarian Logan was a freshman at Merrillvile. That's the key sentence. I know you know that Joliet is not Chicago and,even if it was, Logan is from Merrillville. Bishop Chatard was the 3A state champ last year, right? Their 15th title. You dont mean to suggest they have no talent. I know. In a rare situation. Coaching change and Covid cancelling Morton's season temporarily. Merrillville got 5 transfers from Morton, none from Chicago I hear you about some parts of the state but for the record, Andrean, a school of 450, has far more talent up and down the roster than most 2000-student DAC schools. I dont begrudge them I like it when they win, most of the time. I like it when Chatard wins. All I did was celebrate ONE lonely first place vote in Class 6A for Merrillville and a torrid of bashing was unleashed. I sincerely apologize. I know Merrillville isnt the equal of Center Grove . I was just happy they got one vote. Again, please accept my deepest apology 😢 Edited September 3, 2021 by oldunclemark 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
