    Lisle

    Somethings I've heard in passing from a buddy that went their in the 90's. Take them for what they're worth. District Boundaries constrict how much of Lisle they get. As population ages, you get less kids so less athletes. Relationship with BU doesn't help especially with Admin. Private...

    Multiplier/waiver

    How about instead of a multiplier, the private schools take the enrollment of the school district they are located in? Not sure how that would work for the schools that are in the city. If they can't win x playoff games in y years, they are lowered 1 class from the publics enrollment. I'm sure...

    ICE Semis

    The size/speed and depth of the CCL may be too much for both teams. Neither will go down without a fight. I think CC has the best chance of the two being at home. From all looks, DePaul likes to throw the ball. CC's pass rush has been pretty strong all season. The last two games they seem...

    4A Semi-Finals

    It would be awesome for a team to get a chance win it all on their home field. Couldn't imagine what that would feel like. That game last year was a complete mudfest with Coal City being the only team to seem to adapt to the elements. I don't think they run any of that under center stuff this...

    ICE Quarterfinal Round

    Wilmington vs Du Pec. I agree with McEv. Wildcats need to pack it in and shorten the game. DuPec does play teams that run that style of ball. but outside of Lena, can anyone run it as well as Wilmington? No and Lena beat them up. If DuPec cant keep the qb clean, this game will go south for...

    ICE Playoffs Round 2

    Agree pretty much with everyone here. Wilmington 35-Eureka 14. Eureka gets one in the first and one in garbage time. CC 14 - Boylan 7. I think both teams' defenses will be able to hold for the most part. CC's will be better. CC wins field position leading to winning score. 2-0 week and...

    ICE Playoffs Round 1 and Outlook

    Wilmo over SV. Does SV still run flexbone veer? If so, I could see them hitting some long runs. Probably wont matter as Wilmington grinds the clock. Cats 35 SV 7 CC over Johnsburg. Johnsburg has been a pass first team for a bit. Outside of Morris, I don't think anyone through the ball...

    ICE Week 9

    Moving original post over from the other thread with some additions. It has been a rough year. Hopefully some programs get an influx of young talent from the jr high level or really hit the development programs this offseason. But we do have 1 week left. Wilmington's game will be over by the...

    ICE Week 9

    It has been a rough year. Hopefully some programs get an influx of young talent from the jr high level or really hit the development programs this offseason. But we do have 1 week left. Wilmington's game will be over by the 1st quarter. Peotone's by half or the end of the 3rd quarter. This...

    JCA game cancelled

    I could see 8 man being a really good thing for some of the smaller CPS schools. Get kids out and playing without getting their brains bashed in week in and week out. For those close to CPS, has 8 man been a topic of discussion?

    ICE week 8

    This week does have 2 storylines going though. If Manteno wins, it sets up a possibility for a three way tie if CC beats them next week. How is the tiebreaker figured out? 0-8 Bowl. Don't ever want to see kids have to go winless but we may have that with Lisle vs RC. Has the I-8/ICE ever...

    ICE week 8

    2 Games of Note and 2 that should be over early this Week. Wilmington over Manteno. 28-14. I think it'll be similar to the CC game last week. Probably A little more in Wilmington's favor. Streator over RC. I kind of want to pic the Comets but can't pick RC until they prove they can...

    ICE Week 7

    I'll say this, CC is a bunch of tough dudes. Most conference schools seem to be beat before kickoff. Even when they are solid. CC came to fight. Did the journal have a Manteno round up? how that game was close is confusing. Well maybe not. These are high school kids.

    ICE Week 7

    Manteno gets the clock. Hopefully RC decides it is better to go out swinging than laying down this last third. Manteno isn't the team that can happen against. Herscher 27-13. Both teams on some lean times, but Herscher has notched the wins already. Peotone. 35-7 Unless they are beat to a...

    ICE Week 6

    Outside of two years with some of the best talent in the state at RC, has Nick Kline ever coached an offense that was at least decent? Totally unispiring play calling last night outside of their first drive after getting a fumble on a pop up kick. Still couldn't score. I watched the stream at...
