Washington court house football

[go court house]

I heard from folks at Jackson that they will not be playing a JV game against WCH due to WCH not having enough kids for a JV team, and that they also cancelled their JV season entirely. If so that’s extremely unfortunate for the underclassmen who come to practice every day to help prepare the varsity team and then not get to play any games of their own. That will only continue the decline in numbers in the program in my opinion. You need your younger kids getting experience.

they have not played a JV game since week 2. I have been told by a couple of parents that some of the upperclassman flat out refuse to go do and play a couple of qrts. of jv so the underclassmen can play. they have had a few underclassmen quit in the last week. I heard a sophmore and a freshman since last week. Now, is some of that soft kids, sure. Is some of it these underclassmen probably tired of getting beat up in practice with nothing to show for it...... YEP.

So they have enough kids to play a JV schedule but kids are refusing to play? I'm not sure why they wouldn't want to get as many game reps as possible.

You could always bring back Dye, he certainly has figured out the transfer portal at PV. Very sad when kids refuse to play. Sounds like the current coach is in a lose-lose situation which is a loss for all involved.

They would have to bring a few of the varsity kids down to help with the numbers, but yes they could if they did that.

It amazes me that jose it once again blaming a past coaching staff. That staff won games, not to mention I think 6-1 versus the rival, scheduled games they could compete in and win except maybe the Westerville North game that wasn't a smart pick up. Help student-athletes go on college visits, take those kids to the visits and got them opportunities to further their education and continue playing the sport they grew up to love at the next level. People need to take responsibility in raising their own children, but since they can't it seems to always be a coaches fault. A lot the issues start at home, coaches of any sport in high school shouldn't have to deal with the discipline of home life at practices or at games, but its the world we live in so must try to deal with it the best way possible. People always blaming others.

I watched went on with previous coaching staff. Zero discipline, brought in transfers every year, turned a blind eye to kids when they got in trouble. So yes that regime only cared about winning and now the program is paying for it. Yes it does start at home as well but most of the issues started several years ago.

So you're basing your opinion on what you watched. Move on, go argue with someone else who only watched and doesn't know much of the insight in the school and on the field when it came to discipline. I'm not denying transfers, but do you even know how a transfer happens from school to school? Did you even take the time to find out some of those kids home lives before they wanted to transfer? It isn't the coach that can approve of it. Go cry to Ironton or Jackson about transfers. You never liked Williamson from the beginning. He left the program in a winning status and it got destroyed in less than a year, now its into a 2nd year and getting worse. Many have asked if he'd come back. Why would you go back to something you had to build back up, got run into the ground and have re-build again. Move on, cry about the real problems.

Lol I am basing my opinion on facts. You seem to take up for Chuck at every turn-u are either Chuck himself or his son!! I know how transfers work. I could say a lot of stuff about some of the transfers, some issues with the law that were covered up , I could go on and on but dude-I know what a mess it was!! So cry? Sounds to me you are defending yourself. Let's see -it must run in the family-how many transfers does Westland have this year???? WCH will struggle for a couple years but it was Chucky who started the downhill spiral!

[First and Goal]

No need to cry, stating facts as you want to call it, and your wrong again Jose. I am neither Chuck nor related, just a guy who is close to the community, follows my Blue Lions and close with a school board member. Let's hope this newer Admin group can control things in the school. If your not going to discipline for school and or legal matters why would a football coach take the hit for it. If its a football matter then the coach should discipline. Only believe half you see and nothing you hear. Go Blue Lions!

[MTballer1952]

I have heard nothing but negative things about Everson. It’s probably in the best interest of everyone involved to let Everson go after this year. I think it was a matter of fit and he just didn’t fit in at wch. Make ur change and wish him the best of luck. If Chuck would like to come back then let him. I am sorry but the program is becoming a dumpster fire. The kids are trying there best but they have know leadership with there head coach.

Let's not be bringing up Dye, we love him down here at PV!!

Cry lol Honestly I am someone who does know and I am not wrong. I could bring up 2 major issues he knew about and never disciplined either kid for legal problems. So I stand by my statements.

I would but a forum is not the place to put kids names on here.

Code for you don't know.....Maybe with your obsession about discipline they will let you run the Washington Court House ROTC program or something. Do I believe the discipline can improve under Williamson yes, do I think it was a major issue when he was there...debatable but at least they were winning games. Now they are undisciplined and one of the worst high school football teams in the area. I have a hard time believing if Williamson coached the current team they go 1-9 or 2-8.

[MTSWNGRVSG]

So sad to see this happening to a once proud program, wow. Definitely not the football program I remember seeing for sure.

Lol ok so u want me to put out the names of the kids on a forum of kids who were arrested or either called to not be arrested to a ad or coach. Not going to do that on a forum but trust me that did happen.

[Ohio1979]

Not too familiar with the current court house situation. But I do know that the community and admin SHOULD expect a better result than what has been put out, but unless you are involved with team or school on a day to day basis, it is hard to know what is truly going on.

Sometimes you are just bad but at least they are less bad than others in the fac

There is actually some talent on this WCH team just no depth.

[GrumpyPundit]

Sometimes it’s hard to clean up a program’s issues with character and discipline AND win. Maybe coach Everson was tasked with building a better foundation and instilling some values. That seems to fit the bill of the new veteran AD. If so, the NEXT HC will reap the rewards if Everson is successful. WCH fans might just need to be patient while the foundation is being laid.

[FACSPORTS]

A down year for the big Blue..... a lot of people who know very little to nothing about the sport want to blame the coaching staff for the trouble they are in. As someone who has attended about 98 percent of Blue Lion Football games over the last 30 or more years I can tell you the problems at Washington extend beyond the coaching staff.

1. The non conference schedule is INSANE. It is one of the Toughest non league schedules I have personally seen.

2. Declining enrollment in the district is leading to less players on the team. There are those kids who are not on the field that absolutely should be.

3. Support among parents and the community is minimal to NONE. At the game Friday, where Washington WAS competitive you would have thought the game was 50-0.

4. The kids are NOT committed here like they used to be.

BUT, with that being said, I have heard through the grapevine the Board of Education will vote to non-renew Coach Everson at the end of the season. I have talked to several coaches at several schools who say they would not be caught dead applying for this job. So my question is two fold....

1. WHAT THE HELL do we have to do to restore a once proud program....

2. WHO is the next man in charge at Washington.

Does it still seem like Everson will be non-renewed? I know he won 3 of his last 5 to close it out. Not sure if that was enough to keep his job. I think beating MT could have bought him another year. Thoughts?

[go court house]

from inside sources he will be non-renewed 3-2. if this is the case, hopefully they move quickly to find a new coach. It will be interesting to see who will be the next man up-.
