[Let's see some success in the playoffs before Coach Boston is enshrined in greatness. Besides, the program would do the same without him. It is the tradition and the players that win championships mostly. Arno has done what he did at a school where many kids would rather play soccer. Coaches at established programs have a lot easier jobs than coaches like Arno who take over what used to be the laughing stock of the TVC Ohio. That impresses me more then taking a fine tuned machine to conference championships year after year. Coaches at those types of schools are more defined by what they do in the extra weeks. Show me a regional championship. We must look at the programs history when measuring a coach. In my opinion, Coach Boston has simply doen what any average coach with football knowledge can do with a great program. He has not done enough after week 10 to be put into the "great" category. Now Dave Sr., he definitely can be put into the great category.[/quote]

"I agree wholeheartedly, great post "Blizzard Man". Coach Arno has definitely pulled off a stunner and Boston Jr. walked into an already great situation that was established long before he got there, no comparison on coaching abilities here IMO. Heck, even if Alex loses saturday they'll have as many playoffs wins as N-Y in the last 10 years with all those playoff appearances."[/quote]

The League Title has always been first for NY anything after that is a bonus.
As far as a coach stepping into an already established program ask I-Town how their program went when coach Lutz stepped down a few years back.
How did you do last year at New Lex in the playoffs???????
Yes Coach Sr. is in the GREAT category however it took a while for him to get there.

I disagree wholeheartedly!!!
This group of atheletes from Alex. won when they were in the 4th grade,
won when they were in the 6th grade,
won when they were in the 8th grade,
and they won when they were in the 12th grade.
So as far as a stunner, I think not.
You like to attach yourself to programs that are having success ..
Last year you attached yourself to the Oak Hill basketball team. I am sure that they were greatful to have your infinate wisdom

. I would liken you as more of a parasite.
For you I will put forth a challenge!!!!!!!!
Get behind ONE team and support THEM year in and year out...
Become involved and support that ONE team by being a member of their boosters...
Work some fund raisers work some games and refrain from "jumping on the band wagon".
I honostly don't believe you can do this as your ego could not take the ups and downs of any ONE program.
This year we started 5 sophomores.
In most programs that would be considered a rebuilding year but with a record of 8 & 2 I would call it reloading.
So as I stated earlier
We would not trade our coach for 100 Arnos' + $$$ change $$$[/quote]
As for the Oak Hill comment, I was actually sitting in the Convo talking to some friends from Racine Southern who have kids on the team and were playing in the district at the time and was hoping Southern would beat them but I knew better. My guess was proven right later and when Oak Hill made it to the State, darn right I'm rooting for them at that point. It's an SEO team and I follow any and all SEO teams that make the state finals. There's nothing wrong with that, more people should try it. As far as following ONE school, during the regular season I follow Wahama and Meigs where I'm originally from and hope they win em all and when they don't, oh well. It's just a game and not life or death. No jumping on the bandwagon here ole boy, just a fan of high school sports. As far as fundraisers, etc., I've donated money to help on the new gym that was built at Wahama and over the last 20 years I've coached softball, football and basketball at the junior levels, been part of PTO's, band, theater, booster clubs etc. at the schools my children attended so don't tell me about helping out districts and communities. Have a great day !!!!!
