    What Were the Top QB Classes in IHSA Football?

    Here are a few of the most recent classes. These names were obtained from the Rivals Illinois Top 30 Rankings. If a QBs name doesnt appear they were not ranked in the top 30 players (not QBs) of that class. My vote is 2010 as best class in recent memory. 2006 Demetrius Jones – Morgan Park –...

    Bears Unveil New Site for Prep Bowl

    What a mess this has turned into and what a dog and pony show the Bears put on yesterday. The new stadium looks beautiful but they did not address the parking, access or who will pay for this. I just reviewed ownership of all 32 teams stadiums it does seem that public ownership of stadiums is...

    Transfer portal back open - local kids

    Bostick very well could have been an overhyped kid coming out of high school. It happens, kids with measurables but simply arent football players. Good for him getting a free education.

    Bears

    I would like your thoughts.....I feel the NFL has spoken and they do not believe that Fields is a starting QB. Should the Bears think outside the box and Fields realize his career as a starting QB are over? I feel Fields could convert to WR and have a somewhat successful career in the NFL. He...

    Bears

    1. Penix and Nix will both be drafted in the 1st Round. 2. Caleb Williams was the #2 QB in his HS Class of 2021 behind Quinn Ewers. Has been the #1 ranked college QB the last 2 years in college football. He has been under a microscope and has done nothing but impress. 3. Fields is not a NFL...

    Daily Herald: Thanks to transfer portal, options dwindling for suburban high school football players

    I feel the issue for recruits is the immediate playing time. I believe you are going to see more redshirting than in previous times. These P4 (no more P5) coaches rather have older more experienced players.

    Bears

    With the salary cap the NFL has so much parity. You cannot make any predictions on record till you see how rosters shake out. Many would take the Dolphins over the Bears right now. However, the Dolphins are currently 40 million over the cap and have to sign Tua to a long term deal.

    JJ McCarthy to draft

    Probably predicted as the 6th best QB in this class but he is also younger than any of them. He turns 21 this week! He reminds me of Jalen Brunson. The kid flat out wins and is a leader. Might take him a few years to become a star but seems to have the work ethic to achieve his goals. I would...

    IHSA District vote fails full IHSA Press Release here

    Reading the wording from the press release it does not sound like Districts are completely dead in the water for the future. Sounds like to me they know their proposal wasnt going to pass as written but they know it has merit if proposed correctly.

    wiu makes a hire......

    Thoughts.... I feel at this point in his career Leonard would have a HARD time leaving the high school game. I would imagine his salary has to be at or near $100,000.00 this far into his career. He is close to 20 years into his pension. Why ruin a good thing and career (fiscally) take a step...

    Districts and Privates v Publics

    Question: If Districts pass and Privates stay a part of the IHSA will this negatively or positively effect enrollment at Private schools? We all know everyone attends a private school because of the religious education, higher level of education and amazing facilities. But will areas where...

    IHSA District Project

    As I have stated in other threads I am not a fan of the 8 Classes with 16 Districts per class. Because of geography and amount of teams playing football in Illinois I do not feel it is sustainable over the long haul for IHSA football. My proposal still has 8 title games and classes come...
