My apologies. No disrespect intended. Truth is, both schools can really play some ball. Going to miss you dudes at football camp this year. I was just hoping we could line up correctly. lol

Well, you have to coach before you line up correctly! Really is an unfortunate situation for everyone involved. Hope everyone in the Muck is safe.

Just curious, what, exactly, do you hate? That the coaches (allegedly) were breaking the rules? That the kids were doing something that they shouldn't have been doing (but probably felt obligated to do if their coach said it was okay/mandatory)? That they got caught? That the coach has been suspended (or fired, if you believe other reports)? Or is it just a simple hate of everyone being in this situation in the first place? Again, just curious. Also, just curious to know if there are people out there defending the coach (if, in fact, he was organizing/conducting unauthorized practices)? Trust me, I know that coaches and players want nothing more than to get back on the field and start practicing and playing.

Badbird, help me out here. What do you mean by comical? Is it comical that certain schools/teams are practicing when they shouldn't be? Or comical that only one (or a small handful) of the offending schools have been caught and punished? Or is it comical because there are lots of schools doing the exact same thing that NW was doing (and that the school down the road from you has been doing)? Or are you trying to make the point that it was comical for the state and school district to put the 'stay at home' restrictions in place to begin with? Typically, you raise good points -- I'm just confused this time which point you are trying to make. Now, as far as NW is concerned, what's the likely end result? The school is able to find a new head coach and a bunch of assistants that can take the talent that's at the school and still make a state championship run? Or do all the NW players starting scurrying to other schools like rats abandoning a sinking ship? One here, one there? Or does a core group all end up with scholarships to a school like Columbus? Either way, some film crew needs to be down there now documenting this whole thing so that we have a new "Last Dance" to watch during the next quarantine.

It was incorrect. Watching it full speed it is hard to tell without replay and depending on where the official was located he could have easily been blocked. Sending it in to the FHSAA does no good. Who wants an apology? At the end of the day you still lost. Go out recruit some more players work harder and get better next year. Oh and curse out the officials on your way to your bus.
