Color vs color scrimmages are this week

And I don't even have a clue what's going on.

Illinois really needs to approve preseason scrimmages against other programs. I know in Missouri they do "jamboree's" where a handful of schools come together and scrimmage each other. IMO, gives coaches and kids a chance to go full speed prior to w1 kickoff. I understand the injury argument but injuries are going to happen whether its a scrimmage against yourself or someone else.

I too wish for Jamborees.

As a society, we need to get past looking at color versus color.

I cant just show up to the color vs color scrimmage or even worse, week 1 and not know what to expect. That's the worst.

Went to the Althoff Blue Gold game ... they will be a tough out in 1A.

Saw old Coach Schott - he climbed the stairs to the press box, saw me and recognized me. His beloved Misses, my first grade teacher, is now in a facility for her health, but the old man is doing well, despite being bent over, looking like a lowercase "r." Despite that, his grip remains strong.

Seeing him and chatting a bit was good for the soul.
