    If you could bring back one program....

    Not a program, but the old Midstate Conference. Now the Heart of Illinois, but not the same with all the consolidation that has occured.

    Legislations to outlaw tackle football before 14

    I coached youth for over 12 years, but it needs to be coached and taught at an appropriate skill level for the age group, and individually based on size and maturity. Not sure that I would put a kid in pads and helmets before 7th and the earliest 6th grade. If you do have them in pads before...

    New Geneseo Football Coach has been named

    I believe they still ran it some, but also ran some RPO out of shotgun? Maybe someone closer can confirm.

    So he played at Augie, will he reinstitute the Wing T? Run Triple? It will be interesting.

    What are you getting the program you follow for Christmas?

    Santa, Can I get CG some appreciation and respect? Can you make people understand that it takes more than a system to win 3 state championships in 5 years?

    This is why! A different perspective

    CG kids don't have a choice, and they run what the coaches decides. Sure they could go to Marion, Viator or even Carmel. But we lose very few because we win, and we win despite having a very limited amount of blue chip athletes. But just because we don't have a bunch of D1 FB players, doesn't...

    This is why! A different perspective

    He probably started the season at 225, who knows what he weighs now. I saw a picture of him with a boot on his foot, so that may delay the start of his wrestling season, but I believes he wrestles HW, so he doesn't need to cut. Then he goes right to track, where he qualified for state in the...

    What State Title Game Intrigues You the Most?

    It is a privacy issue. He's not my kid, so I didn't think it was the right thing to do to tell the world of ET where he is at.

    What State Title Game Intrigues You the Most?

    He decided that he didn't want to continue to play, he is going to school. I won't say where, but I will say that it is a school that one of the best players from ESL is playing at. I would love to be fly on the wall when they run into each other. HIs brother, Jack is on the current team...

    Toughest Playoff Schedule

    That maybe true about ESL, but this is not the CG team from 2021 either. Let's hope for another exciting game like 2021. May the best team win.

    What State Title Game Intrigues You the Most?

    I think that’s what they said last time.

    Toughest Playoff Schedule

    I think the real question is what brackets were the most evenly matched. Looking at the top divisions, 5A and 4A had the closest games, so you I would Naz and St Lawrence.

    Cary-Grove 28 Lake Zurich 10 final

    There is a misunderstanding, I read it as saying that in 2019, neither team deserved to be in The finals. Obviously since ESL won it that year, PR or CG were not the 2 best teams. I’m saying that in 2017, CG and PR might have been the two best teams. Might but we’ll never know.

    Cary-Grove 28 Lake Zurich 10 final

    That is ridiculous, ESL is #1 so one else DESERVES to be in the Championship game? Do you mean that didn’t both deserve to be in the championship game? BTW PR was the # 1 team in 2017.

    Cary-Grove 28 Lake Zurich 10 final

    Both Huntley and SE were 8A schools, and Superman pulled it out for PR from the fire in the last 35 seconds, and then rolled. One could argue, that the 2nd round game was for the state. So since ESL won in 2019, No one else deserved to be in title game? Which was a pretty decent game for 3...

    Cary-Grove 28 Lake Zurich 10 final

    Ok I get that you want 1-32 in 6A, but that is nonsense. Until this year when PR dropped down, and the exception of 2022, every year they are both contending for the title.
