NIC 2022 Any news or thoughts were sharing

[ASJCPUMA]

NIC posters have been pretty quiet.  Anyone have any thoughts to share, maybe some transfers or other items

[Football Guru 25]

were all vacancies filled??  

[ASJCPUMA]

I have not heard of Elkhart being filled yet but may have missed that one

[ASJCPUMA]

St Joe is playing Mishawaka week 2 this year replacing Northridge.  I believe next year the Caveman play Penn week 2 so this could be a one year game.

Culver Academy has Hammond Morton in place of SJ in week 8.  SJ picked up Benet Academy from the Easy Suburban Catholic League outside Chicago

I have no insight on Bremen. They graduated a ton of talent. They have a few pieces back, but I look for them to be rebuilding this next season.

Riley's new coach is Derrick Lee.  He is the nephew of SBCSC AD Milt Lee.  He came from Muncie Central

Hearing good things coming from the South Side. Word is kids are really excited and numbers are great. Now how that will translate to the field and how soon is anyones guess.

Looking at Harrell's schedule and this may have been updated since.........

New Prairie is open Week 2 and Week 7.  Looks as if Twin Lakes dropped the Cougars for SB Clay.  So now in week 2 Clay has 2 games with Twin Lakes and Goshen.

SB Riley has openings week 5 and 7.

 

If anyone has updated information please share

Cavemen should be pretty good.

Hearing there is likely to be a BIG name transfer coming to one of 2 NIC schools this upcoming season from down south, should be fun to see where he lands.

Does the player's dad happen to be a new coach at Notre Dame? I've heard he's going to Penn but don't think anything is official yet

Yeah I heard Penn and St. Joe being the two he had narrowed it down to a while back.

I have heard rumblings of a possible conference shake up in the area.  NIC, HNAC and TRC.

Bremen, Glenn, Jimtown, Valley, Rochester, Pioneer, LaVille, Knox?  That seems like fun.

i dont see jimtown or pioneer in this picture but maybe the others... would Rochester jump or stay in trc if valley leaves to try being the cream of the crop??

SB St Joe has Fort Wayne South on their schedule week 2 in 23-24-25-26.  This year Mishawaka fills that date

An interesting match up non NIC is FW Dwenger has a home and home with Cincy Moeller

[ASJCPUMA]

It would be fun if St Joe, Marian, FW Dwenger and FW Luers could figure a way to play each other

A double header at St. Franics would be a very interesting idea for sure.

Just a thought were many diocesan schools play each other

Just chiming in on the St. Francis site suggestion.  An absolutely TERRIBLE place to play a HS Football game.  

It is well suited for small college NAIA FB that don't have visiting teams travel.  But no so much for HS Football. 

We had a 4A Regional matchup there a few years ago.  The visiting fans were basically confined to a small section in the end zone, and a 1A sized visiting stand on the opposite sideline. 

Let's not get ahead of ourselves with the usage of an NAIA facility for HS football.

I was unaware of the stadium.  I recall the semi state game there but the other issues provide good information

[ASJCPUMA]

Attended the meeting last night.  Appears Clay High and a 1 in 3 chance of remaining a high school

Once people read about this plan think a lot of discussion will follow
