Bruce
Inskeep
said
his
brother
is
almost
a
carbon
copy
of
their
father.
There
are
times
when
I
come
back
to
Carmel,
and
Jim
is
setting
up
for
an
event
where,
literally,
the
hair
will
stand
up
on
the
back
of
my
neck
because
Jim
will
say
or
do
something
that
is
like
my
father
reincarnated,
he
said.
He
is
absolutely
dedicated
to
that
job.
He
loves
it,
he
lives
it
and
I
think
the
program
record
speaks
for
itself.
In
the
past
15
years,
Carmel
athletics
have
won
more
than
60
state
titles.
Jen
Marlow,
science
teacher
at
Carmel
high
school,
was
on
the
interview
committee
that
hired
Inskeep
as
athletic
director.
The
next
year,
he
hired
her
to
be
the
girls
high
school
basketball
coach.
He
bleeds
blue
and
gold,
Marlow
said.
I
think
he
has
brought
the
passion
for
Carmel
and
the
passion
for
athletics
together
to
be
a
really
effective
athletic
director.
He
never
settles.
Hes
never
happy
with
just
being
the
best,
he
wants
to
be
better
than
the
best.
Andrea
Dixon,
Inskeeps
assistant,
was
one
of
his
classmates
at
Carmel.
She
said
she
was
not
surprised
when
he
became
Carmels
athletic
director.
It
was
what
he
was
meant
to
do,
she
said.
He
loves
Carmel
through
and
through.
Inskeep
was
class
president
at
Carmel
High
School.
Dixon
said
Inskeep
was
a
great
fit
because
of
the
way
he
got
along
with
teachers
and
the
student
body.
Everybody
loved
him,
she
said.
Everybody
loves
Jimmy.
Hes
super
witty,
super
funny.
He
energizes
people.
He
was
just
that
person.
Doesnt
know
a
stranger,
and
makes
you
feel
welcomed.
After
graduating
from
high
school,
Inskeep
studied
education
at
Purdue
University.
He
taught
sixth
grade
English
in
Carmel
right
out
of
college.
Thats
definitely
not
what
I
thought
was
going
to
be
my
career
path,
Inskeep
said.
I
think
they
felt
like
I
read
at
the
sixth
grade
level
so
that
was
probably
a
good
fit
for
me.
I
had
a
lot
of
fun
with
it.
Inskeep
coached
various
teams,
worked
scoreboards
at
high
school
events
and
did
anything
else
he
could
to
immerse
himself
in
Carmel
athletics
while
he
taught.
Less
than
four
years
later,
the
athletic
director
position
at
the
high
school
became
available.
Since
then,
its
kind
of
been
a
lifestyle,
Inskeep
said.
If
you
like
popcorn,
dont
mind
having
all
of
your
Friday
and
Saturday
nights
taken
up
and
working
60
to
70
hours
a
week,
then
this
is
the
job
for
you.
I
think
its
a
fun
job,
it
really
is.
Bruce
Inskeep
said
a
lot
of
people
thought
his
brother
was
too
young
to
be
an
athletic
director
for
such
a
large
program.
I
tell
people
that
Jim
couldve
been
athletic
director
at
13
years
old,
let
alone
23
years
old,
he
said.
He
just
has
an
inherent
knowledge
of
how
to
do
that
job.
I
think
that
year
that
he
became
the
athletic
director
was
a
defining
moment
for
him.
Bruce
Inskeep
said
another
defining
moment
that
characterizes
his
brother
happened
when
they
were
young
and
visiting
Disney
World.
He
said
most
kids
favorite
rides
are
ones
like
Thunder
Mountain
and
Space
Mountain,
but
not
young
Jim
Inskeep.
He
loved
a
ride
where
you
sit
in
a
chair
and
are
asked
survey
questions.
One
of
the
funniest
moments
for
me,
not
for
him,
was
when
the
survey
experience
was
closed,
and
he
literally
went
into
a
meltdown,
Bruce
Inskeep
said.
Theres
Jim
absolutely
deprived
of
his
Epcot
survey
experience.
The
Inskeeps
nearly
annual
trip
to
Disney
was
a
huge
part
of
the
three
brothers
childhood,
Bruce
Inskeep
said.
Jim
Inskeep
said
he
wants
to
be
a
Disney
Jungle
Cruise
tour
guide
when
he
retires.
Jim
could
probably
do
it
now,
Bruce
Inskeep
said.
And
he
probably
wouldnt
need
the
script
to
do
it
verbatim.
Inskeep
values
time
with
his
family
and
athletics.
He
has
three
sons,
ages
10,
12
and
13.
Inskeep
stays
busy
coaching
their
athletic
teams.
When
his
boys
grow
up,
Inskeep
said
he
potentially
would
look
for
other
athletic
opportunities
in
Indianapolis
or
elsewhere.
Im
excited,
he
said.
I
still
have
a
lot
of
energy
and
things
I
want
to
do.
