Why aren't we getting Montini/Naz next season?

Both were open week one and two. Naz now has Curie week 2. Who said no or did they avoid each other?

My lips are sealed on the situation. But I think Naz now has a contract for week 1 as well. Couldn't wait any longer.

As someone that can tell people all the MC v SR scores since the 70s, playing a natural rival does not affect recruiting negatively. It’s a win-win for both sides. 7th and 8th graders remember the energy in the stadium at those games more than who won and then try to convince Dad and Mom to pick up the extra job to help them get to one of those schools that play big games like that.

Here are their conference schedules in 2019:

Montini
W3 at Mount Carmel
W4 vs. St. Rita
W5 vs. St. Viator
W6 at Notre Dame
W7 at St. Joseph
W8 vs. De La Salle
W9 vs. Providence

Nazareth
W3 vs. Fenwick
W4 at St.Laurence
W5 vs. Leo
W6 vs. De La Salle
W7 at Marist
W8 at Notre Dame
W9 at Benet

I'd say both have the ability to schedule high-end non-con opponents with those schedules.

Maybe Naz gets a tough week 1

Not really worth scheduling this game. Both teams need wins. If it happens let it happen in the playoffs.

For some reason I dont get excited about Montini playing nearby private schools. I do like when they schedule 7a or 8a public schools in the past but I don't see that happening anymore.

Montini does not have the same football numbers of kids like it did 4 to 10 years ago.

Curie opens with MC and then Naz....Arthur Ray isn’t scared! Probably not a real smart move with Simeon and Philips also on the schedule, but he isn’t scared!!!

Philips is Phillips but a guys who’s pretty connected to CPS told me Curie next year would be the 2018 Simeon. We’ll see.

They will have some players and Arthur is a great person and coach, no doubt they will be improved, I think Philips will reload without Billingsley and McCray, but they did snatch MC best RB and DL from the class of 2020. Still though, they were 4-5 last year and one and done in the Prep Bowl playoffs, starting a season with MC and Naz is extremely hard for any school.

Oh yeah sorry, didn’t mean to insinuate otherwise, your post was spot on.

Looks like this game is being played tomorrow night at 8:15pm in front of a packed house!

Looks like 2 of the top girls basketball teams will be playing each other in the girls top basketball tourney in the state...

It's Naz at Montini Saturday night in the championship game at Montini at 8:15pm.

Will Racki and Bu be at the game? Will the very young Broncos who I think have 7 freshman have a chance?
