Contact days cut and ejection rule changed

[Blacknight36]

Every other state EXCEPT Illinois calls that a false start. Its something many officials have argued for years but apparently the state interpreters have other opinions

The rule book is quite clear that it should be a false start. Why the Illinois interpreters insist on making it more complicated and deviating from the book has always annoyed me.

There was a RB years back for Morris who may have had a legendary game they wrote a book about and also had one of the best seasons in IHSA history and football wasn't his favorite sport and went on to wrestle in college. He was pretty great and did what was asked of him, but he wasn't going above and beyond anything his teammates were doing during the summer.

Stop being one of those guys who still wears his letterman's jacket and thinks success in HS football is the pinnacle of life.

I don’t believe this player ever existed!

The problem with your previous post and why that can't work is the weather in Illinois.

The states that don't do football activities in the summer are in the south and have spring football practices. You can't do that in Illinois.

People act like players and coaches don't like practicing together in the summer - getting ready for the season. If you love football - you love spending two hours together practicing your craft. If you don't, either the program culture needs work or you don't love football.

I really like the way Batavia does it. June and the first week of July is weights or off. and then Football camp for 4 weeks in July. They use 19 out of the 25 contact dates.

Check out July 4th on the calendar!
