Yes, Heritage Hills will travel to The Bowl for a scrimmage next Thursday is what I heard. Interesting scrimmage there. I expect HH to compete very well.

This is not directed at HH or Reitz, but both teams have had multiple 11 on 11 scrimmages this summer. Are teams choosing one-off scrimmages now instead of overnight team camps hosted at a college? That seems to be the case IMO, but curious what it’s like around the state. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my opinion….team camps hosted by colleges are a waste of time and energy imo it’s a few days or running around and practicing pretty much just fundamentals with a few scrimmages in between. Very short individual sessions for each position over the camp….and the college coaches kinda float around and give quick pep talks and not much else. they feel more like a publicity stunt from college programs than actual camps. again it’s just my opinion but i definitely am in favor of scrimmaging teams in your area over being 1 of 20 hs teams at a college over the summer for a few days running around with your head cut off trying to make the most of the time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think team camps on a college campus are for the benefit of the college. What better way to get prospects on campus to evaluate them? I think schools are better off to host multi-team scrimmages on their campuses. More team work gets done this way. Just my humble opinion. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to imagine for a team like HH….what is a camp even going to do for you guys? nobody is going to teach the kids how to run your flexbone/wishbone offense better than your coaches haha. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW - up here in northern Indiana - there is the TMT (Triple - Midline - Toss) Camp for schools that run that style of offense. It's currently happening at Manchester University. Warsaw, Fairfield, Northfield, Munster, a school from Illinois and a school from Canada are all there. All run the same style of offense. The camp very much so focuses on the fundamentals it takes to run that style of offense, while allowing some competition between the schools (so it's not just the whole summer of facing your own jerseys) I wonder if something similar could be hosted down south for schools that run the flexbone/wishbone offense? Or is Heritage Hills the only school that does? Edited July 18, 2022 by NLCTigerFan07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They certainly are not the only ones….but they are close to if not the best at it in the area. the problem though is that a number of the other teams who run that or a variation are either conference foes or teams in the same sectional/regional. would probably have to look south to Kentucky and I have no idea about what those teams run 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good pass defense with plenty of experience but struggled in the run defense category. im sure you guys didn’t like trying to put together a scout offense and replicating Brady haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on how they did against GS and their 7on7s...I would say the HH pass defense will definitely be tested. Lot of speed and talent to deal with. However, the strength of their defense is their pass defense and they have been known to struggle against the run in recent years, which obviously both work in the favor of HH. I think it will be a competitive battle of run vs. pass. It also makes sense as it could benefit both teams as it helps HH prepare for defending the spread offense and helps Reitz prepare for defending Jasper and whoever else runs a similar offense.

Yuccaguy Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Just finished a nice 3-way scrimmage here in the Fort featuring: Northrop,(Indy) Pike and Carroll. I cannot tell you how fantastic it was to be on the gridiron! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titan32 Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 (edited) Gibson Southern was up at Brownsburg this week and was fortunate to scrimmage Kankakee, IL, Huntley IL, Evansville North and Brownsburg. GS showing dramatic improvements in secondary play based on some earlier events...but that is why we do these right.

Haha but these things always give me a smile. Huntley -Illinois 7A Kankakee- Illinois 5A North- Indiana 5A Brownsburg- Indiana 6A and then little ole Gibson Southern as a 3A school. It just never gets old. Every offseason under hart the team is training against schools 2x/3x/4x it’s size….and the community wants this challenge with no shortcuts 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering all the hype they have been getting, they should have stacked up pretty well to a 3A school, even if it is GS. For any GS fans that were able to see GS scrimmage Reitz and North, how did they compare? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
