    Pike on with Mad Dog at 4

    Illini fan here. I lurk on your board from time to time because I respect the Rutgers program and I find you guys knowledgeable. Anyways, just wanted to post that yesterday when Underwood gave his press conference regarding the Illini's tournament seeding, etc. , he finished up his press...

    Big 10

    Illini fan here. I come in peace. I like to lurk on other boards, especially if I like and respect the other team/fanbase. I do like Rutgers. Anyways, it may appear Curbelo is always selfish and out of control. Though he is at times, not going to lie, that is simply not usually the...

    Excellent post. Congrats to your son and your family, very exciting. My son went through a similar recruiting process. He played at Tolono Unity. Varsity QB soph - senior year, state runner up sophomore year. 3A and 4A over that time. Edgy was great to him since he saw him at countless...

    First Time in 3A Track History

    First of all, Moore is ridiculous, so fun to watch, and only a sophomore ! Saw some great talent today. Sorry to do the bragging dad thing, but wanted to do a shoutout to my son, Steven Migut, who took 1st in the 300 m hurdles in 2A and 2nd in the 110m hurdles. Finishes his high school...

    How would you address/fix the scheduling issue?

    Possible on the last sentence, but we'll never know. All I"m saying is that Unity would have competed with all those teams and had a chance. I do believe that. Now vs. Rochester or Highland in 4A they would have had no chance. That was my original point. Jumping to 4A is huge. Same for...

    How would you address/fix the scheduling issue?

    BBC you have been anti-Unity in every post I've ever seen on this board and the illinoishighschoolsports board over the past three years. It's whatever. I believe this Unity team could have played with anyone in 3A. We can agree to disagree.

    How would you address/fix the scheduling issue?

    I think so. IC had close games along the way, especially with Byron. I'll go transitive property on you, but Byron beat Monticello 21-20 and Monticello fumbled on the Byron 3 late in the game. Unity beat Monticello 30-13. Not saying they would have beat IC, but they would have been in the...

    How would you address/fix the scheduling issue?

    Totally agree. For example, Unity has always been a 3A school and this year could have competed to the semi finals and the finals in 3A. Just above the 4A limit, had no chance from the beginning. Lost a hard fought 2nd round game but would not have given Rochester a game. Then look at...

    I love multisport guys. Who is the best Football player/ Wrestler/Basketball player?

    Haven't seen Jarnagin, sounds like a great athlete. I think my son would be in the small school 3 sport athlete team pic with him though. Steven Migut was an all state 4A dual threat qb for Unity. He is a 2 time all state track athlete to date, with 9 state medals,including first place as a...

    Bucket List Game: Army v. Navy

    I will go in the near future. My son is a class of '18 qb from Tolono Unity (3A/4A) and he will be playing for Army. Coach Monken is incredible and my son is honored for the opportunity to be a student at West Point and compete to play qb there. Pretty wild to think he could be playing in...
