Indiana Fan Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 One of the best conferences in the state. Growing in enrollment and talent, the Mid-State is ultra competitive and always seems to be up for grabs each year. Who are the favorites for 2023? My early predictions: 1. Whiteland 2. Plainfield 3. Decatur Central Quote
ragdoll Posted March 23, 2023 Posted March 23, 2023 Was not Decatur playing a lot of sophomores last year? Quote
FridayNightLights Posted March 27, 2023 Posted March 27, 2023 Last year was the first year since 2015 Decatur Central has not had at least a share of the Mid-State title. They will continue to be the odds on favorite to win year in and year out until proven otherwise. I'll take DC vs the field this year. Quote
oldtimeqb Posted March 27, 2023 Posted March 27, 2023 Has Mooresville's run of P5 athletes stopped? I remember they have had several big time recruits - both football and baseball - playing over the last few years but I haven't kept up with them. Plus didn't the younger Gillin leave to coach somewhere else? Quote

They are losing a previous top 5-10 qb in the state though. Edited March 27, 2023 by FridayNightLights 1 Quote

Is younger Gillin gearing himself up for that position of HC at mooresville once coach is done? Quote

ragdoll Posted March 30, 2023 Posted March 30, 2023 Hogan Denny has another year at Mooresville. My friend thought he was a better qb than Patterson as a freshman. Came into the regional game at Evansville in 2020 and led game winning drive. Superior arm. Quote

That passing academy for the Gillins has been a nice tool for them to bring in some great qbs. Like I said, they will be competitive as long as Gillin is there. He's won everywhere he's been at. One of the best to ever coach in the state. If he were still at DC I would imagine he'd have a state championship or two by now. Quote
RetiredSouthernCoach Posted March 31, 2023 Posted March 31, 2023 Good Information here. I'd say Whiteland is still the team to beat with their program success and consistency. Decatur Central being a year older will be troublesome for the conference. Plainfield is a growing community and program, and could take that next step soon. How does Perry and Greenwood progress forward? What does Franklin look like after last years good year? Can Mooresville use the conference play to prepare them to make a deep 4a run? Does Martinsville keep up the success with another high powered passing attack? Mid-State should be a fun conference to follow again in 2023! Quote

roaringthunderdlr Posted April 12, 2023 Posted April 12, 2023 This is the year, Quakers. Class of 2025 is VERY good and Class of 2024 has some dogs in there was well. 5A is weak for another year, Whiteland loses 30 seniors, Mooresville loses Patterson, Franklin loses Max Clark, and Decatur had a down year. Plainfield has no excuse to underperform. Quote

FridayNightLights Posted April 20, 2023 Posted April 20, 2023 Decatur Central's Bo Polston has now been offered by Indiana. Bo Polston, Decatur Central, Quarterback (247sports.com) Would expect the first of MANY for the young man. Quote
