    St Pats/ND

    Trying to get permission from my "source" (who isn't really a source--just more connected than I am) to post what he has heard, but I'll just say the email is partially true, but it contains some inaccuracies and lacks important context. Regardless, disappointed they won't be playing this year...

    St. Patrick Opening

    Probably the safest hire. I guess DeFranza would be a "high floor, low ceiling" type hire. Zibby maybe a "low floor, high ceiling"? Very, very different hires, obviously.

    St. Patrick Opening

    Splashy hire, similar to Viator. Wonder if this was in the works when Mertens stepped down.

    Coach Hennessey of Notre Dame to retire

    No mistakes made. Dan DeFranza (Dons class of '90) was named head coach. He has been D-coordinator at ND for 30 years. The defense has always been, and will continue to be, ND's strong point. Now, let's get a creative offensive coordinator and get things moving!

    Coach Hennessey of Notre Dame to retire

    As for replacement, I don't really have a ton in the way of "sources", but I am hearing the next football coach will be named relatively quickly. I've heard three names---two that are somewhat "obvious" and have been mentioned on this board before and one that is a little more out there and...

    Althoff…

    Yeah, I usually defend playing hard to the end, not taking a knee just to punt, etc. But going for 2 in that position and then throwing the ball for a TD with your first stringers...give me a break. Embarrassing behavior.

    Monticello 8 v Montini 49 FINAL

    Byron would be doing the same thing to Monticello right now. They and Montini were head and shoulders above the competition in 3A this year. Sucks we are about to get out third running clock today. Hope the 4A game is decent.

    MMXXIV Edition - CCL-ESCC Predictions Week XIV

    It's been a damn fine season, gentlemen. Let's go out and win six titles this weekend and spark month-long debates and conspiracy theories and proposals and general hilarity. Iggy -26 vs Whitney. Wolfpack end the season with a Prep Bowl title. Hope to see them a few divisions down next year...

    MMXXIV Edition - CCL-ESCC Predictions Week XIII

    Semifinal weekend and look at all the games we have to pick. We CCL fans are truly lucky! Unfortunately, we are guaranteed the end of at least three CCL team's seasons this weekend. Let's hope that's it! Dons +14 vs Iggy. Who know who will / won't be playing for these squads. I think it'll be...

    Most Surprising Semi Final Team based off of Preseason expectations?

    DePaul's athletics program in general has been really impressive for a school that's been around for just 10 years. Just recently, boys basketball won state in 3A last year after winning 2A the year before. Baseball made it to the final 8. Their boys soccer made the final 8 this year. And now...

    MMXXIV Edition - CCL-ESCC Predictions Week XII

    Some interesting opponents this week, mixed in with a very familiar MS/LA matchup. Normal +23 vs MC. Think this one is close until late. MC wears them down eventually. Caravan 35-17. MS +15 vs Loyola. Hawks offense seems to be buzzing. Loyola's defense is certainly buzzing (is that the right...

    Damn. Great season by the Friars. And a great effort against a big suburban powerhouse. Congrats to DGN.
