    IC Expansion?

    Even if they did disband the wrestling team, they are moving up to 3a so this is a moot point. The only thing I could possibly think of that could result in this is the connection to club wrestling but I highly highly doubt that they are disbanding.

    Q of the Week: Best High School Stadiums in Illinois

    Q of the Week: Best High School Stadiums in Illinois

    Love Marian’s field. Do they still do the checkerboard endzone? However, ive been around football for almost 40 years and I’ve never seen more biased refs than at Marian central. My senior year we get a huge 4th down stop, right before half, we’re up 13-7. Penalty, worst roughing the passer...

    Q of the Week: Best High School Stadiums in Illinois

    It still looks the same as when Bird was tossing tds to Trumaine, and Finch was blocking field goals to win the city championship.

    Best programs that never won a State Title.

    I could've sworn it was Normal Community or Normal West but I guess I was wrong. I can remember watching the game on TV and seeing the "Public School Champions" sign. I just looked it up and neither Normal school lost to a private school. Good call.

    7 on 7 fight

    Those guys are about the same as Aau basketball coaches. No teaching background so they start up these profitable 7-7 programs and don’t know how to teach kids character. This is embarrassing.

    Best programs that never won a State Title.

    I was wrong. Scott Hamilton from Tolono was 0-6 in title games. They are 0-7 as a program. That has to be best program to never win a title. I’ll add Palatine and Fremd as programs that have come close. Palatine 3 semifinals and one title game appearance. Fremd has one semifinal and quite a...

    Good call on Barrington. Small schools: Tolono Unity. Scott Hamilton came close but I think was either. 0-4 or 0-5 in title games? saw him speak once at a clinic and he was awesome. Followed him and his team ever since.

    Alabama splits Publics and Privates Football State Championships

    Colin is right on about home prices. The closer you are to the city the more expensive. Oswego has always had good football but you’re starting to see the Hampshire’s, Burlington Central’s of the world increase enrollment and success. The one program that I can’t figure out is Huntley. They...
