No TV Highlights Show This Fall?

Or Joe Snaidauf from Jones Intercable in the early 90s.
Joe took over the St. Rita PA booth after the IHSA Hall of Famer Jim O’Boye retired. Joe is a 1984 graduate of St. Rita. I think he has his youngest in college.

Like you, I would love to see him running a production magnifying local HS sports. His knowledge of the south burbs, the west burbs and CCL/ESCC added with his enthusiasm and energy he brings would be pretty dang good.

ICE week 1 recap

I was on the initial interview committee for him. He blew the room away. I still can't believe Chicago Christian got him. Yes, we are all very excited to watch them over the next few years
I’m hoping he stays for awhile. I really think that place can be a 2A/3A title contender. They used to have some really good teams and in a great area for talent.

ICE week 1 recap

Chicago Christian is on the rise and has a good coach.

El Paso isn't a bad team at all. I am not surprised by the outcome at all. Thought RC would put up more of a fight.

Expected more of a game in Wilmington and Hope but Wilmington has proven how tough they are to play, especially at home.

Streator beat a very, very bad Eisenhower team.

Something must have happened to Lisle, injuries, kids in trouble, or something. But I have heard Harvard is on the rebound, maybe not playoffs yet but will win some games.

Coal City fought hard but not hard enough.

Manteno jumped on Sandwich and never looked back. Looks like some huge improvements from the Panthers this year.

What brings you here?

Joined Sept 2019. Lurker for awhile, have no interest in Facebook, Instagram or Twitter. Started here to follow local teams that I knew had kids I had coached myself or coworkers kids who played and I followed their teams. Deep love for the game at the HS level for what it taught me and deep appreciation for the coaches out there. Played for Tim Cedarblad, Bob Williams and Ira Jefferson. Love the lower level college because thats the level I played at. Played for Jim Scott, Jon Cooper, Mark Walsh, Paul Hefty, Joe Nauman, Tim Betustak. All had influence in my experience and college years. Now, I really love seeing those I played with and who are coaching now-Brian Cooney, Tyson LeBlanc, Benny Boyd, Marc Hancock, Dan McGuire, Paul Forsythe, Tony Melchiori, Joe Howell, just the ones I know of and there's probably more.......appreciate the site and the connection it provides for people who share a passion for the game.

Lyons and Bennett Not On Rivals Radar

Working on it now......also Lyons played at Granite City last season so was pretty much an unknown and we wiull cover them regardless. I think I have a pretty good track record of covering ESTL kids over the past 20 plus years or so.....
OH, for sure you do!!!

Another thread was about HS studs that are not necessarily college material, thus the incredulousness of CG beating ESL was disrespectful,
