    Ah...I didn't realize it was a shot at those claiming LWE is better than ESL. Carry on.

    Lol. Here we go... The ONLY way to literally prove it is to beat LWE and ESL (and maybe Warren). This cannot and will not happen, so they have not proved it. All that they literally proved was that they won the 7A state championship.

    I'm not diminishing anything. I'm playing devil's advocate, so to speak. He is boasting that ESL is better than every other team in IL. I am reminding him that there are 16 other teams that can boast about being better than ESL.

    We're 17th! (and you're not)

    I agree that it's something to be proud of, but not to boast about "and you're not" - which is what I assume he was kidding about. My point was that the true dominant HS football teams like Mater Dei/Bishop Gorman/etc would be upset with being 17th, while ESL (really Crusader) couldn't be...

    Illinois...(or STL area...) Where you're this proud to be the 17TH best high school team in the nation... :D True national powerhouses would puke if they were 17th. (In reality it is a worthy accomplishment, but nothing to try and boast about - I know Crusader wasn't being 100% serious, I...

    Happy Test Day!

    Why pay attention to a post that bothers you so much, MCHS? Spend your day doing things you enjoy, not despise!

    Good point.

    Happy Test Day!

    In my opinion, even though he can't be actively recruiting during school hours due to the reason you listed, he'd still have ample time for all of the other aspects of recruiting that aren't directly contacting the kids. I agree on regarding needing to have a presence at the games. You would...

    You're looking at it wrong. Not sure what Lynch's job consists of, but if you give Badke 160 extra hours a month, I would bet a lot of money that they have more football players testing.

    Happy Test Day!

    How do MC/SR/Marist/BR differ in recruiting methods? Do all assistant coaches from MC/SR/Marist recruit? Who has more in-house admissions employees? I agree with Krock that it's a team-effort, but having Badke in the building would be huge. Gotta give him credit for being able to sustain a...

    Happy Test Day!

    Thanks for the info. Didn't know any of that about SR. Selective enrollment does make sense, but couldn't they just say any amount extra goes towards X? I'd like to be a fly on the wall to see how some of these schools handle the money they make from sporting events and what-not...(Not a...

    My same response when Montini was playing Disney songs while BR warmed up (and MCHS was in the locker room) before that spanking in 2018 :)

    Happy Test Day!

    If anyone has time, they should make a spread sheet with the schools listed above and include this years numbers, last years numbers and tuition. We can add/revise each year. Could be cool.
