And when these good records benefit TW for good seeds when in reality they are fluffed records against JV competition, do you laud that in the forums as well as people pacifying TW? Because like you I have seen this happen for 15 years.
Sensible question but unfounded inquiry in that if you look into those past 15 seasons you would be hard pressed to find JV competition on the football schedule. As for basketball there may be some validity but in reality there has been 2 maybe 3 teams in the Dayton area or you can say in the Southwest region to compete with Trotwood that's no fault of Trotwood's that the area is what it is. They schedule the tougher teams around Dayton outside of their conference-Centerville, Wayne, Springfield, Thurgood that's about it as far as decent-to-good teams in the area. In more recent years, this argument expounds my point even more when players at a school make 1st team all-conference averaging 10ppg. as a freshmen and a player at the same position at school B that beat school A averages 20 ppg. makes 2nd or 3rd team and his team was undefeated in the conference and state ranked but he didn't get the votes from other coaches in the league( 1 example). I can go deeper than that but ultimately it all pans out in the end.
Actually I do! He won a state title at Portsmouth HS in the early 1960s and then coached at at several DPS schools including Dunbar. I believe his teams used to clash with Alter and Coach Petrocelli a lot in district games. I believe he passed away a few years ago
Alter and Dunbar interelations predate Haley. Dates back to. Waterman
My inquiry is not unfounded as I already knew the answer. At no point did I ever say FB or BB. I dont think anyone would question the FB program and I dont know squat about BB. I can tell you that I have personally seen TW and DPS schools pacified as they want high seeds for kids that had fluffed up records against JV level competition. Coaches would often pacify them and give the seeds only to see them get waxed early in the competition. So please do not come on here and give me the Oh Woe is me. It happens to many schools, not just TW. Heck 'my school' just this past season had the leading rusher in the conference and the kid did not make first team all conference. I guess my point is it happens to a lot of teams out there so lets get over it and move back to the topic. And for the record I actually semi root for TW as Graham is a former teammate so I enjoy seeing him succeed.
I need names of schools in which you saw the "JV level" competition or the conference meetings you've sat in or online seeding voting that you've participated in, show me proof not just a sesason or a game maybe two that you've seen. Because honestly you're showing that you don't have much knowledge of DPS or Twood with comments like that. I know firsthand in FB and BB, AD's will not or in the past, have not scheduled the DPS or Twood because of the level of competition so what sports or games are you talking about because that is far from factual and what sports are more popular than FB and BB in high school?
I figured you didn't know much. This ^^^^^^^^^^^^is true he won state as a player in 61' at Portsmouth. He's the only coach in DPS storied history to win the league at 3 different schools (Roosevelt 75', Roth-multiple times, Dunbar-multiple times), during two of the best era's in DPS league history. Won 4 state titles as a coach (Roth 76', Roth 81', Roth 82', Dunbar 87') Coached #1 player in America (Dwight Anderson 78'), coached several high school All-Americans and NBA players. So actually his accolades are unmatched by many including the great Joe Petrocelli and was revered by his peers but he's not in the MVCAA HOF???? Easily the most successful coach ever in the Dayton area. Actually he and Petro had classic regular season games more than in the tournament when Haley was at Roth and Dunbar. He's just now slated to go into the Ohio Basketball Coaches Hall Of Fame this year....... He retired in 93'. Where's the fairness in that? Your complaining over schools that didn't get higher seeding votes.
Yes. Badin advances. I believe Badin is playing Northwest tonight. With the bye last week they were looking at being off two Fridays in a row.
Yes. Sounds like Wapak has been battling it all season (missing players in multiple games, etc). Unfortunate to say the least.
Your hair looks nice in that pic but that is very mean of you to say. I am disappointed in you. (shames self for thinking the same thing as I saw some of the forfeits)Yes. Sounds like Wapak has been battling it all season (missing players in multiple games, etc). Unfortunate to say the least.
It is interesting that the covid bug seems to hit lower seeded teams harder

CJ is not very good at all, but Bellbrook must be pretty darn good
What athleticism has Tipp not seen again? Acting like the MVL is a slouch league
Carroll and Alter in the District Finals. 2 GCL schools. Surprised Carroll won.
Score was backwards. Trotwood beat Carroll 28-7
Ahhhh. Gotcha. Makes more sense. That's too bad. Surprisingly that's not as high scoring as I thought Twood would put up on Carroll since Carroll really wasn't that good this year. Twood might be in for a rude awakening against the Knights.
I feel like Trotwood still may be better than their scores indicate and they're still figuring some things out. Since they didn't start playing until week 4, I think that could be a valid concern with everyone else getting 3 extra games under their belt.
Crazy how the 1-8 seeds all won and now it’s like the regular playoffs
