    Where to find 2020 Scores on Friday nights?

    Is there a website/app/place where scores are updated throughout the night? I've typically looked at WHO TV's page, but just wondering if there was something any better with more scores. It seems somebody starts something up every year, and then it crumbles for whatever reason.

    Fed releases new football rules for 2020

    Nothing real big. You can now kill the clock from the shotgun. Play clock goes to 40 after a stoppage for a defensive injury. Defensive "talking" now a 5 yard penalty rather than 15. HERE is the link to the official release.

    Association denies coaches Association proposal

    I'm wondering if we could have a "reverse playoffs" using the same point system for a game 9. So carry on with the playoffs as is after 8 games. But for the teams that don't make the playoffs, they get a single week 9 matchup with a similarly power rated team geographically close to them. I...

    FED rule change questionaire

    Instant Replay actually was approved in the playoffs last year by the Fed with a state option. I don't believe Iowa adopted it yet tho.

    FED rule change questionaire

    Got an email today from the Association, as an official, to a link to the Fed asking how rule changes went this year. As they do each year, they ask about potential rule changes for the next year. Had 8 of them, here they are, with my opinion. Instant replay in the regular season---Hard no...

    Direct copy from an email from Todd Tharp at the Association. The press released LINKED HERE has all the rule changes for 2019, including about jerseys, and tripping among other things. Please find attached the press release from the NFHS regarding the national rules change for the sport of...

    Fed rules change questionaire

    Got my yearly Fed rules change questionnaire that goes out to officials. Here are some of the things they asked: (not word for word--just the point) Again these are simply a survey for potential rules changes in HS football. No distance penalty for improperly equipped, just removal for a play...

    2A Darkhorse State Champ

    I've seen plenty of Jr High heroes that flame out in HS. But I've seen their JH the past couple years. They were phenomenal for a school their size. I expect their success will continue for awhile assuming normal continuing growth of the players.

    SE Valley?

    I think in about 2-3 years, they will be very good. They have some younger mutants up on the line.

    State of Basketball in State of Iowa

    If I were a coach (it will never happen, so don't worry) in a consolation game at state--it would all be about fun. I'd start any kid who busted his tail, but wasn't talented enough to earn a start. I'd play chuck it and get back on D. I'd play a 15 man rotation of pressing. I'd do barking...

    Schedules?

    Crap, I thought the pulldowns would cache, but they are gone. So I don't have them. I do recall seeing Xavier vs Regina. Some other reporters and such had them. If you search Twitter, you might find them. I know I've seen Webster City, South Hamilton and Roland-Story.

    Schedules?

    I can see them all. Can't copy and paste with the layout. And I sure ain't typing them all out!

    Schedules?

    The dates/opponents were posted on the IHSAA website but pulled back down. No idea if they were final, but I got a look at the opponents of some teams of interest. Apparently the IHSAA has learned that it is public, and has changed the link. But I haven't closed it on my browser yet, so I can...

    2A District/Substate Talk

    I can't speak for what the boys in Boone may or may not have done. But the folks in Nevada did a nice job. They had maybe 4 or 5 ticket takers, so the line moved reasonably well.

    2A District/Substate Talk

    I was at the South Hamilton/East Marshall game. Best HS atmosphere I have been to in a long time. I think I heard the Nevada gym holds 1800. It was packed to the gills with a lot of people also sitting/standing on the walkways behind the baskets. A full spirited crowd makes for a fun game to...

    Thoughts About RPI (Check My Math)

    obviously not going to happen over the next 2 years, but I'd like to see some benefit, like baseball, for playing up. Maybe some crappy 3A gets the benefit of playing a 1A and improving the odds for a win. And the 1A gets a shot at 3 points. It's a way to get competitive games. Currently...

    2018 Rule Changes are out

    Got an email from the IHSAA about this today. No real big changes this year. The below comments are not word for word, just the express version. #1. An improperly equipped player will be removed for one down. No longer a yardage penalty. As I read it, it also includes not wearing equipment...
