Thought I saw somewhere where Columbian opens at Fremont Ross next season It's entirely possible. Arbiterlive, the site this info comes from, isn't always accurate and is sometimes slow to be updated.

^^^^^I have an idea, Looks like Columbian needs a week 1 game, And Huron needs a week 1 game next year as well. So why don't both of them look to the Cincinnati area for games, for week 1. For Columbian, Roger Bacon (D4) is available. For Huron, Bethel-Tate (D5) has an opening. I' m a Sandusky blue streak guy and during Fremont game,some fremonter's said they overheard coach long in his radio show that Fremont was dropping Holland / southview and picking up Tiffin columbian and Toledo start next year. So as far as week 1 for tiffin ,it's settled.Wow Fremont is real tough school..Good for tiffin.!!Also clyde is taking on toledo st.Francis another Trac school next year.

...or sometimes games show up on one schools schedule but not the others, as I just discovered by looking up Fremont's schedule and seeing a game against Columbian listed
So yes, looks like Ross-Columbian is a go for Week 1 2019

I know it has been a while since I have actually posted and this is hear say by my grapevine of friends who teach at PC. I know that Port Clinton's head coach really hated playing Clyde year in and year out and that is why they wanted them off the schedule. He makes it well known to the teachers he talks with at the school. Clyde is in the Lake and a Division 3 school while PC is in the Bay and Division 4. From my teacher friends at PC he thinks they should be playing Division 4 or lower. So, beyond just Clyde, he doesn't want to play anyone above his division. I am a firm believer in playing above and below your division and it can help make you well rounded.

How does one explain Norwalk and/or Sandusky?

Bringing this back to discussion since Huron Week 1 is up in the air. Huron's week 1 only up in the air for 2019 season.... norwalk st paul goes week 1 in 2020 with norwalk going week 2.. genoa will be week 3 for now.. perkins goes to week 5 and will likely stay there. Clyde could come back in near future..we are on for a 2nd scrimmage next season.. if it was me it would be a yes to them for week 4..but i don't get a vote

The thing with the grapevine is that it’s usually half true at best and total crap on most days. 1. Carmon hates playing Clyde? If he hates it so much why did he keep them on schedule after merger? He could have ditched Clyde like everyone else but he didn’t. 2. The truth is that it was decided that PC didn’t want to play up in the lake for three games anymore. Clyde was the first of three contracts to be up and thus became who got non renewed. It’s really that simple. 3. Riddle me this fliers62. If Coach Carmon doesn’t want to play any schools larger than D4 then why is Port Clinton playing D3 Norwalk for the foreseeable future? 4. You could have just said “I heard” but you went out of your way to specify a specific source of info. Either your a really bad friend or your trying to stir the pot up.

It will be ironic if they have to drive four hours to play a game too... Last year PC played Norwalk, Sandusky, and Clyde.. lost all 3... missed the playoffs because of it.. Had they only played 2 teams from the Lake Division and one team from "four hours away" and won?? they're in the playoffs. So what did they gain by playing 3 Lake Division teams? Norwalk, Sandusky, and Clyde made out like bandits didnt they? 29 big computer points from a D-4 team.. I've always thought that its a bad idea to play more than two teams in non-league (or division) in a football season. You just decrease your playoff points. Even if they win all 3 games, they lose often throughout the year because those teams are playing each other.. If you're OK with playing a few games UP and a few down. Put Fremont Ross in the league! they're only 1 division higher. I know you're not afraid to play them, and quite frankly i think you'd beat them more times than not.. Most of the bay teams are playing at least two Lake Division teams... why do we need to do more??? if anything the river doesn't want any part of the bay..go gobble at them!

To be accurate only half will be playing two Lake schools. Edison - No (one) Oak Harbor - No (none) Willard - No (none) PC - Yes Vermilion - Yes Huron - Yes The River doesn't have openings in weeks 4 and 5 because they have eight teams in their division.

We’ve tried talking to river for weeks one two or three and it was no thank you. Perhaps instead of barking at port Clinton. Go work on oak harbor and Willard

You may view it as storing the pot all you want, but I don’t see many people on here trying to that in this thread....yet. I was simply trying to say it might not all be true because it was through the “grapevine” as I was not there. Also, just because I didn’t word it as you would have liked doesn’t mean your assumptions are correct. I’d rather have an intelligent conversation. And you say “the truth is” so am I to believe that your word is any more true than mine? At least I said through the “grapevine” and “I wasn’t there.” It’s all like a bad game of telephone.

I’m not sure what stick is up some of the leagues butt. If anyone knows enlighten me. I think Ross would be a great fit and any one of the Lake teams can compete with them. We want a good competitive league and we have a good start. Finish the picture and add Ross.

I agree, let's bring in Fremont Ross and make the Lake an even better conference with all of the areas biggest schools in the same conference.

In the grand scheme, I'm all about stronger competition for conference/league play. The chance to dominate conference play means little to me. In my mindset, it's a matter do you want little trophy(in this case SBC Title) or bigger trophy, one that gets respect from statewide? Stronger competition gets one the bigger prize.

Shelby played Bay Schedule this past season correct. Edison finished 3-6 pc 6-4 shelby 5-5 a far cry from clyde sandusky and norwalk... when edison played shelby the best you could do is gain off one team when edison played pc the best you could do was gain off one team.. when pc played shelby the best you could do is gain off one team... 13.5 points left off the board in this situation... fortunate for Norwalk Region 10 had some losses in it.. had they been in region 9 11 or 12 they dont host the first game. region 9 they dont even make the playoffs because of it... i know we can't guarantee anything, but you increase your chances with an opponent totally separated by common opponents.. 13.5 may not sound like a lot but for non-conference it is a lot..especially in smaller divisions..

If you can't dominate your conference play (which all but one (Bellevue) is in your region) you have very little chance at the big prize! As great of a run as Norwalk had, how far are they from playing at kenston's level? who blew Alter right off the field.? Its very very hard to win a state championship especially in football..

Stronger competition gets one the bigger prize. then why be complacent in Norwalk with playing almost exclusively bay teams next year. If Norwalk is arriving and as big of a school as they are, why not schedule Ross, Ashland, and then some other d3 teams? The league won't expand in the lake, trust me, and they won't add ross, so you will need to beef up at two non league games to give you what most teams in league play for their total league games. and I am sure Norwalk would have loved to have a piece of the SBC title this year, conference titles are great too!

Richrod, my friend, we've been over this a number of times, and I have remained consistent with my premise. At any rate, and I've brought this up as well; about the only availability is Week 2. Ross won't drop Tiffin nor Sandusky in favor of Norwalk, and if Ross can't get in Lake, then it will likely be NLL/TCL opponent for that week.
