This is always one of the first things I put up in my classroom each year, the IHSA Track and Field Team State Medals that the EHS athletes have earned since @tigertrack1 became Head Coach! I was super excited to add the 2024 State Championship Medal!

The Barrington Broncos (& all the teams that didn’t quite perform to their expectations on Sat) can do the same. Adversity & disappointment is part of the fabric of life… it creates a learning experience for us all to improve & grow from as we move forward in life. Go Broncos!

For those who didn’t, your Wikipedia page filled them in quickly and left them wide-eyed and speechless. : ) Now they’re fans for life.

Okay, people, I'm doing it again tonight..... Despite my better judgment, I will be mashing up all 14 lottery picks at the #NBADraft with the best under 30 golfers. It's all hype and potential!!! Give me your comps!

One of the biggest reasons that this finally came to pass is the historic revenues that the NCAA & so many of its member institutions now enjoy. Not to mention the inflationary & sometimes outrageous salaries now being paid to football, basketball, and a few other sport coaches.

Had this been enacted back in my day, I probably would’ve benefitted from it financially at a time when I was having to live off a Spartan budget. But, I do have mixed emotions about it. Will athletes now choose their college based on the size/demographics/wealth of the market?
