What did you get wrong in 2024?

I’ll start…

I made a big deal before the year saying Byron should petition up to 4a.

I was wrong.

Anything I responded to.

Argo going 8-1.

That Chicago Christian could actually win a State championship. I now don't need ANY presents this year, and I'll just keep singing Christmas carols.

That St. Rita would, at the very least, cover against MC in the semifinals.

 

[CCfan]

I assumed the IHSA took enrollment numbers seriously in assigning classes for the playoffs.

I don’t think anyone saw that coming.

Jack, what’s your honest prediction on the knights in 2025?

I agree. I have a shirt that says " Chicago Christian Football State Champions " that I bought last week. I honestly never thought that would be part of my wardrobe

They had a run like 86 Tinley Park

86 Tinley Park

I "hate" those guys!

Heard too much about Brian Wise from college friends on that team. It should have been Althoff, not Alleman, against them in the finals. Some bad decisions were made the night before that semifinal game.

Up front, I called Althoff and East Side, the two main teams I follow.

I drove over that night, and got left at bar in Davenport! Give those guys a little break, Alleman had thrown the ball 12 times all season. I think they threw it 20+ times in the first half! Totally game-planned.

I think they likely would’ve won another title if they did. You were right for the wrong reasons.

You must have been close to that team and those guys then.

Remember Steven Schott with the most brutal LEGAL hit that resulted in his ejection. Reminds me of the Lynn Swan shot.

Pro- The Bears will make the Wild Card round.

College- Marcus Freeman will be fired after the season (granted it was after the NIU game)

HS- MC will have a good team, but I don't know if they are going to win their 16th State Championship this season.

MC Everyone!!! MC meaning Merry Christmas this time!
