Pro is a great coach and would probably slap some of the people running their mouth on here for what they are saying about Pav or the guy they hired. If you disagree, you probably don’t know Pro as well as you think you do
Someone’s feelings are hurt, back to your cave bro
Take your pee wee loving arse to someone who cares
Because he couldn’t lift Boardman up ? Can anyone?
Didn’t Boardman have a few future NFL players under Ignazio?
Yeah, because your opinions are the only ones that matter. I'm honored to receive such sage advice.
Or because I watched him make terrible in-game decisions?
. My opinion. Godspeed to your guy and the Cards.Are you the one who applied? If so, my advice would be to leave all pee wee accomplishments off the next resume you put together
No, not at all lol. I just know his capabilities from watching him develop a number of athletes thru the years. I'm pretty sure he played for Pav also. I would tend to agree with you for 95+% of youth coaches, but this one is special and was deserving of at least an interview. He has a very strong grasp of the game and has a great offensive mind. I know if you asked any of his former players, Broc Lowry being the highest profile, they'd all agree.
What makes him the least qualified candidate? Who else applied? He has HC experience, did every other candidate have that experience? JI wasnt successful at Boardman, but guess what, none of the other coaches immediately before him or since him have been either. W/L records don't always tell the whole story.
He was at least less qualified than Prologo and failed in his first head coaching job and he was there for many years and did not change the culture there.
I thought the point of this hire was to keep the staff intact. Is JI already bringing in his own guys? This just keeps getting better and better. Can you tell me about $100k new position in the school? Is some of that going to be used to juice the stipends for his new staff?
Fair enough. But I'm sure "invader03" has not a clue about what the culture was like before/during/after Ignazio was there. But to each their own.
I know Boardman football falls beneath the band, music department etc.. Still When Ignazio was there, they had some talent and should have at least been 500.
Always a tough guy in the bunch that can't put more than two complete sentences together to debate unless, it is to degrade or act stupid? The point the man was trying to make was, that there were good candidates regardless of their experience, in the mix that did not even get a shot, who decision was that? Unless you are the one doing the hiring for the Canfield School district all this nonsense is speculation and gossip. By the way, it is really easy to talk with your thumbs, and if you truly knew who this person was, your Pee Wee accomplishment comment is irrelevant. Might not have the experience needed now, but every coach including Pav, JI, Pro, Reardon, Yeagley, hell even Bill Bellichick had to start somewhere. You my friend might want to educate yourself on how to form an opinion and debate, rather than spout off nonsense in a forum where people are just having a simple conversation.
And you expect a coach to come in and be successful in that environment?
Reaching 500 level at Boardman is not asking for the world. A solid coach has to overcome bs no matter where they coach. He had enough talent but was not that good of a coach. He may win a state title at Canfield...much easier Ohio division and weak schedule. Just wonder why you take a coach who has failed once over one who was extremely successful and coached at the school once already.
Every division down is an easier path to state. That said I don’t think it’s much easier or a weak division. The D3 champs this year were the D2 the year before. I’m sure both Hoban and Massillon were happy they didn’t have to face them in the playoffs. Half of Canfield and Boardman schedules are pretty much the same, and while Boardman’s other half may be a little tougher with Fitch, Lake, Kenston & Mooney, Canfield facing West Branch, Olmsted Falls and Mansfield isn’t much different. And region 9 is far from weak with Chardon, Kenston, Ursuline, VASJ, and Canfield. I bet in the past 10 yrs 7 of the state champs came from this region.
Pee Wee football and the previous State Champion Canfield Cardinals are not on the same level. What are we even talking about here?
How did this supposed text between the three people who would not like this info out there leak? Shame on anyone trying to make things up to fit their narrative because someone they wanted didn’t get the job. To the guy who said they won in spite of Pav. I have one question. Are you on drugs? Pro is one of the best coaches in the area and I imagine would be very disappointed in the BS some of you people are spinning on here. I do appreciate all the new members creating accounts to chime in although It’s probably all the same jilted lover.
Complaining that a peewee coach didn’t get an interview for one of the best jobs in the area isn’t having an opinion. It is having no common sense. It is being lost in your own reality. It is not being told no enough in your lifetime and probably use to getting what you want without having to work for it. What are we even talking about here? Canfield won a state title and we should be mad at them for not interviewing pee wee coaches. Maybe that person can coach. Join a staff and work your way up. No one is saying it can’t be done. Complaining or having people allegedly go on here to defend said person is a very bold strategy. I blame participation trophies for this nonsense.
