Those bigger schools that make these calls just have no shame whatsoever....
Well, evidently it was COVID year.

Props to Steubenville by not enabling human trafficking as they could’ve scheduled Bishop Sycamore instead for that open week.

Tomcat Pride!
Lot of factors go into scheduling. Especially home and away splits. AD's want those 5 gates so they can fund the athletic department. I know some schools who will give up a home gate in the regular season because they anticipate hosting a playoff game or two. Which I know, they don't get ticket revenue, but it can help your boosters, and other programs out with more people.
We play 4 home and 6 away this year. It's gonna hurt sales but I think we're hopefully expecting to host a game or two in the playoffs. More goes into scheduling than I realize, though.

I don't recall if I mentioned this, but St. Paul will play at Edison, Week 2, and will make a long trip to Fort Loramie, Week 7

IIRC, St. PAUL and Edison will play each other for first time since Edison left the Firelands Conference. That was 1985.

I feel like that's a game that should be played. Decent travel time, both have nice facilities. Edison is up and down but usually has some solid kids.
 

TEMPESTA

This too shall pass; troubles are temporary
Im going to miss D7 R25. From State Championship Game to not fielding a football team. Its truly disgusting, shameful, unacceptable. From running this region to losing week one to Champion which JFK has never lost to in its history. Then the Week 2 Gmen, Week 3 South Range, Week 4 Sandusky Perkins. Unfortunately JFK is in the same boat as STA now. Death Sentence for this storied program.

And when Jr class is gone haha will figure out what they’ve done. He’d know now but he’s too busy bashing Mooney football.

I'm sad to see how all of this is gone. Mostly I'm sorry for the kids because it is sad how adults and personal greed screw up so much.

How can administration be so damn stubborn that they sit back and just watch it burn down? I mean come one, some attrition, ok, I'm sure they were prepared for that - but ya'll are describing a team that won't win a game and may not even have the numbers to fill a team on any given week....these are fireable offenses for decision makers that let it get this bad....

Lose a couple kids....ok....but when the mass exodus starts to happen how do you not pick up the phone to coach pro and kneel at his feet? "Name your price, you can have the keys to the whole damn school if you want them..."

Just wondering how many left cause Coach resigned? Didn’t some get expelled, left for track/football and or didn’t like Coach also? If true, sounds like blame to be put all around in fairness.
