WWS week 8, maybe if Hales doesn't have a team next year and CCL schedule is the same they can play MC.

That is likely not the case.....but it would be the 10th anniversary game of the 8A championship from 2006.

Week 1.....Naz vs. HS
Week 2.....Naz vs. Provi
I know historically Naz always signs two year home and homes with teams. This is the first year playing Leo week 2. Not sure if it's a 2 year but based off history I'd say it is. Naz guys will know, Providence would be cool but I'd have to think the game everyone wants to see is Naz-Montini.

Would love to see the new super-LWE take a team like PC week one or two
In theory, LWE should be very, very good from here on out. A perennial favorite in 8A. Will it happen? We will see, coaches are going to have to do a great job getting kids to buy in and develop a chemistry in the locker room. Talent will be all over though.

No doubt. Especially with Coach Z running the show and a bunch of kids who want to win? They should be in the mix every year for the 8A title

Naz would play HS week 1. That would be a good game for both teams. Pretty sure Naz is locked up week 2.

That or a budgetary woes closure of Dunbar and/or resurgent DuSable.

If I am a CPS coach I don't let a kid attend any camp or showcase with out being there with him. Actually I know multiple CPS people who already do this to keep the vulchers away.

If Leo is still on the schedule in week 2, Naz should look at Provi in week 1. That would give them one challenging game and one expected win. Provi would play Naz if given the chance.

You'd figured Richards in Oak Lawn would be safe . . .

I've always thought it would be really cool if some college or university took it upon themselves to host some sort of kickoff classic where they find teams that faced each other in the state title game 5, 10, 20 years ago and do 3-4 games in a day if they have turf... Could be a really cool way to open the season.

Mizzou did that this year. They had the three Columbia schools go against three of the better teams in Missouri. It was at Farout Field first game at 11 and went till like 9. Really cool for the fans to see some good competition and I bet it was a really cool experience for all the players to play on a big time neutral field

Tommie Mister was transferring this year from IU to NIU.
I assume he's sitting out due to being ineligible in 2015 due to the transfer.

Even if none of the bigger schools wanted to do that, there are some great DIII schools that could provide an awesome venue. NCC anyone? They are big time in the DIII world.

Great way for a DIII school to showcase its campus to prospective players that could be playing in these games... A definite win-win.
