Normal has 2 high schools. 1 of them is 7Aor 8a. Usually goes deep in football playoffs every year until they play Chicago schools.

What pushes a team over the top? Is it having the best top 40 players or getting the best 86-105 players? I think most boosters would be more excited for the former. Some might argue that it's not an either/or argument, however no matter how much money a program has, at some point the resources are finite.

I thinking more of a team adding 86th player.

Just spitballing a scenario here:

After getting a bumper crop of recruits and transfers team loses a Heisman caliber QB near end of the final portal season. By hook and crook, said team gets an insane replacement last minute in the portal.

It’s nice to have a couple extra scholarships to stash development players. The move to 105 definitely wasn’t needed

That's much smaller than when I graduated there in the '70's. My class alone was 615. Speaking of west central IL, it's been a long time since we've seen a recruit out of that area. Jack Cornell was the last I recall, and he's coach at Quincy Notre Dame now. Is he developing some talent for us yet?

Back in the 60's Quincy Jr. High was 7th, 8th and 9th grades, is it still that way?
