What does it matter, Mongomery will run everyone off by the time their juniors or seniors :confused: and Wakerly has his teams set for the next few years with new recruits arriving every year. :shrug:
 
Sorry guys, wrong on both accounts. Football and track. Although I've had several dealings with Montgomery. More last year than this year. He's an a**. Most of the people at school feel the same way. Including most of his players. I only know Wackerly and his program by his recruits. They're all great girls but I'm not sure that's the way to build a local program.
 
Just curious, but what were your previous run ins with Coach Montgomery about? I've heard kids say things like this several times but never with any detail.

He was my counselor last year and our hall monitor. Never was much help with college planning, classes and anything else I asked. It was also very hard to make an appointment with him. When I finally got to see him it was obvious he had more important things to do, like basketball. Must be why they moved him out. He's now called a "Success Counselor" but I thought all the teachers and administrators at Hoover were interested in our success. :shrug: He's pretty much a smart a** when he talks to any of us.
 
I will say that you are TOTALLY wrong srixon. Mr Montgomery has been the counselor for two of my kids that have graduated. He did a great job in counseliing them. He got one placed in a better school by having my kid submit certain essays and used certain contacts to get the kid accepted. So from my ACTUAL experience with him, he has done a GREAT job and the job he was hired to do. So I might suggest you quit sucking on sour grapes and placing blame on some one else. It may help you succeed better in life.
 
Knowone's sucking on sour grapes, 6kings asked what I thought of Montgomery. I told him MY experience. I'm way past having to deal with him. In life, when you figure out that someone is incompetent, you avoid them and do the work yourself. I've been accepted at three highly regarded schools so far and I'm waiting on the forth.

Fritz,

I'd like to know who your children are because they are one of the few who Monty has helped. He was my adviser for two years and when I met with him all I got was talk about basketball. It's a difference like night and day with the individual I have now. I know of others who feel the same way. Also, it's strange that he helped your kids get into college the last two years since he had primarily Freshmen, Sophomores, and some Juniors the last 2 years.
 
When my kids graduated they used him as per the school. I am not sure why a senior would have him if he was a Frosh counselor.

I guess what I am saying is that people get on a site like Yappi and grump and moan about a person....you can use his name and you can say anything you want to say about him AND you can remain anonymous. I would invite all those on here that have ripped Monty apart to post their REAL names and then we can all have a true discussion about him.

I have found over the years that those that like to grump will do it when they feel that they will have no chance of personal responsibility for what they say.

We are not talking about a coach's play decision here, we are on a witch hunt to destroy a man's credibility and his name.
 
As an individual who is about to graduate, will someone answer this question about the adults in North Canton: Why is it when you tell the truth about someone, adults say its sourgrapes or just being negative?

Now back to the thread:

My man Rookie just wanted to know who is on the Freshman Basketball Roster. I am a student and I don't know. Someone help us out.


By the way Fritz, I am a student at Hoover in the top 10% of my class. I do not play nor have I played any sports in HighSchool. I played baseball, basketball, and football in Little League, the Y, and Youth Football. I am physically challenged. But my brain works and I know when someone if out for themselves. That my good man is Mr. Montgomery. YOU STILL WANT MY NAME!
 
Nice job Vik:lips There's know dout about Monty's agenda. I'm number #1. I'm number #1 ...

Fritz - I have know problem telling you my name, after graduation. Monty can still make life miserable for me and the rest of the students on here. I would suggest we get together in a forum, invite those in the community that have somthing to say, including the school board, principal, AD, teachers, counselors, parents and students. You may need to rent the Community Center.

We all know nothing would be accomplished by this and the younger students and parents wouldn't speakout for fear of retribution.

As I said in an earlier post, he's nothing to me and I'll move on. This is for those poor people behind me.

Most adults have experienced these situations. We realize that not all teachers, counselors, coaches, etc are great at their jobs. This goes for any school or even any work place. But the fact is that most people who complain about a coach are disgruntled due to something personal that happened to them in their sport, such as being cut or benched or whatever.

For instance, I didn't hear a lot of people complaining about Coach Hertler this season even though we were in the midst of our worst season ever. Most people realized that he was the same coach who led us to a 10-0 season the year before and that a team sometimes just doesn't have it. However, I did hear first hand, several parents of players complain quite vocally. They were disgruntled because their kids weren't playing enough or not getting the ball enough, etc. It was personal to them and they had to blame someone for their kid's lack of ability. It is typical in our "me" society today and ironically even happens when a team is having a great year.

So when an adult hears a high school student complain about a coach, because of past experience, we often times assume that the kid disagreed with a decision made by the coach that affected that kid personally on the court or field. In the cases mentioned above, I certainly hope that if Monty is not doing his job in the school, that these kids reported it to the principal. But you'd have a hard time convincing me that he's not doing his job in the gym.
 
Oh grow up! I am with Fritz. I went to Hoover my counsler would not have even known my name at graduation. She was not even a coach. It is becoming the norm at north canton, people want winning programs but when the Coach raises the bar and shows the students and the parents what it takes to compete with the states best, these kids and parents hide behind their computers and raise ****. Look at the wrestling program. As for Coach M. is conserned sometimes you have to be an a-hole to get the fire under some of the spoiled rotten kids we have at times, to even compete with a kid with a blue collar work ethic like a kid from say McKinley who has never had anything given to them in thier lives. Best of luck Coach.

We'll see what happens in the post Wackerly era.
 
In case anyone cares other than Vik:Lips. I think the Hoover freshman team is playing for the Federal League Championship Saturday the 5th. The game is at 1:00 PM against McKinley at Lake High School.

The Freshman Roster is..

Andrew Blake
Tyler Schuller
Mitch Rose
Nick Stromple
Nate Shingleton
Taylor Kiefer
Evan Nicholson
Tim Welch
J.D. Elder
Matt Wakulchik
Tyler Nicholson
Kevin Dahl
Jason Draime
Jimmy Ianni
Andrew Upperman


Good Luck Guys.

:clap:

Srixon, please learn the difference between "know" and "no". I doubt any college would accept you if you don't know the difference.......no matter who you counselor is.
 
I think that the original question of this thread has been answered. I know there are a lot of opinions floating around and we will all have to see how they are resolved. Having seen the Freshman play and looking at the roster, there is a lot of good basketball to come at NC.

Final word......GOOD LUCK TO THE BBALL TEAM, including the players, the coaches and all of us fans.

Good Luck Guys.

How many of those players are multi-sport athletes? I know Kevin Dahl will be a standout in football. It will be interesting to see how many of them continue on with basketball if they are multi-sport athletes.

Sorry Fire Ball, must be that North Canton education I've received over the past 12 years. :laugh:

I never said I played "High School" Football.

No-one is screaming about Montgomery as a coach. Yes, complaints have been filed about him as a "teacher" with the Principal.

To the person who graduated from Hoover and never met with his advisor: Don't lie. Just send us your name with your W-2.
I bet your a great success expecially if you still live here.
