Boiling Up The Charts

Hoosier Heaven
Warren Central senior wide receiver David Bell, the best split end in the state, visited Indiana last weekend. Bell is the most sought-after Class of 2019 Blue Chipper left on the state’s recruiting board. He’s narrowed his choices to IU, Purdue, Penn State and Ohio State.
IU offered Gibson Southern freshman quarterback Brady Allen this week. Allen is the top fab frosh field general in the state right now and has thrown for 1,800 yards and 21 touchdowns.
Big House Balling
West Lafayette sophomore linebacker Yanni Karlaftis and Culver Academy junior defensive end Deontae Craig were both on campus at the University of Michigan over the weekend taking in the Wolverines beat down of Wisconsin.
