It’s hard for Ed’s to get games with teams that aren’t D1.

Schools have been turning down Ed’s for week 3. Ed’s will probably have to go out of state for week 3.
Looks like week 1 we will be hosting Good Counsel (MD).
Avon has declined. So has Hoban from what I am hearing.

If this is accurate, it says a lot about the Avon program. I guess they are happy beating up on teams in their conference and losing in the playoffs every year. I happen to think they would compete with St. Eds but apparently they don't think so. And, if they lost, that experience would help them in November. The best programs welcome competition at the highest level.
Is that confirmed? No home and home now?
Maybe Avon is trying to sneak a win in like Lake Catholic types do when a team like St Ignatius is going to be down
Mentor is going to be extremely young this year. I don't know why they have so much trouble scheduling out of conference in football ... especially this year
We are treated like a recruiting private. We've been close to winning the title but haven't. Wayne has too but can schedule. Pick Central and hd can schedule and have won it all. Solon often competes and has no issues
It's mostly us. And it isn't enrollment either. Mentor just went from 3 to 2 middle schools and closed 2 more elementary schools

I know Glenville isn't avoiding Avon.... Glenville is currently on our schedule and plays Eds and iggy a lot. I'm sure they'd love Avon ..
I'm sure mentor wouldn't avoid you guys. But that stuff about wanting challenges rings hollow if Avon wants a one game deal in a year where mentor returns like 6 starters
I'd want a home game too with any team

My point is Glenville isn't avoiding Avon if they will schedule Mentor ,Eds and Ignatius. They've played all 3 in the same year before !
Mentor does draw more boys. That's why they are d1 and you are D2....
If Avon wants a one year deal with mentor I'd insist it be at mentor if I were in charge If mentor schedules a D2 school away on a one year deal it will show how desperate they are

If you want them to play so bad , come to mentor or play a home and home. Avon isn't really a program that is elite enough to pay mentor cash. If anything , they've done way less than us in a lower division
I wouldn't take a one game deal away at Avon. But maybe our ad will have no choice
And again Glenville must have better programs or not be open your week. You only have 1 week open each year ...
Because Avon while good isn't in the class of those programs Glenville regularly has scheduled.

I'm sure he will. But he's pretty desperate if it has to be at Avon. Again Avon isn't a better program than Mentor. They shouldn't get a home game without mentor getting one too
Id do a home and home with cardinal mooney and leave Avon out in the cold if I were him

Thursday night would be even worse. Why would Mentor schedule a game that far out vs a D2 team with no return game?
You are looking at it only from your perspective. It makes very little sense from a mentor standpoint
Sure I'd think of going. But most people won't unless they have kids in the program.
Mentor shouldn't have to play a program that's done less in their stadium with no home game in return
If it's a one game thing it should be at mentor if anything

Mentor has 5 home games but it's the principle. I don't think they should schedule any team unless they get a home game out of it. Especially a D2 team that is far away
