Good post.It should be baffling to anyone that follows the program.They needed to make a fresh start with a outside hire.Anyone that thinks things will change are only fooling themselves.

Time will tell. Anyone who has coached at any level knows there's a big difference between being someone's assistant and being the key decision maker. It's only fair to wait and see what the new coach can do; give him that chance. There's no reason to second-guess this decision when he's not had an opportunity to prove himself as the leader of the program. Let's move on to next season.
You want to drink the kool aid bud,go right ahead.But no need to tell me,or anyone else what to think.It was a lazy hire,that could have been done 5 minutes after the last game.
It’s not a lazy hire. The #1 candidate, that was formally offered the job, ended up turning it down. the hire was a result of not thinking the #1 would walk away from the low ball offer.
The hire was the next best candidate. It was a very underwhelming candidate pool. It became every more luke warm once the #1 dropped out.

Are the home games still going to be at Euclid? Also heard that the Walsh game may be at Tom Benson

agree on the 2012 season .......started 3-2 ......... then 5 losses in a row ....4 blowouts...........too many irons in the fire on the malbasa hire .
coach joe ....real easy choice ........very few by the few who made the decision ........... malbasa was always heading east ....back home to university school.......... those years with schaefer and his staff .........were terrific ......

st. francis beat cathedral prep last year ......yikes !!!
They were terrific because he had PLAYERS
At least you know about the low ball offer.Tells what kind of shape the program is in when they make Grind for 9 the head coach.
If the school can't attract good head coaching candidates because of money,logic says they won't attract top flight assistants either.I give you exhibit A-the staff we just had.Most of whom will probably be retained,because they can't attract real coaches.
Yeah. Hopefully he spends less time on here and more time correcting all the flaws he didn’t address last year.
P will never admit it. But it’s well known it’s him. It’s not a secrete. Another clown. Just like Jake, on here embarrassing the school daily.
Maybe now you understand all the negativity from some of us.
Now do you understand why he was so anti the #1 candidate? Also why he would always defend the staff against criticism?
Can we please keep this thread focused on the 2023 season?
It is pathetic to label the new coach a failure before he has recruited one player or coached one game.
Look at the 2018 Browns for an example of a new head coach getting better results with the same talent (yes, I know there are major differences between the NFL and high school football):

Hue Jackson (fired Week 8, 2–5–1 record)
Gregg Williams (interim, 5–3 record)

Coming from a guy who said he would never put his name on here, now he is making bold statements or assumptions that are comical. If I was qualified to be a head coach, I would not be on here but thanks for the compliment pal.

Anti #1? All I said was why would a coach leave who made it to the regional finals. Isn't that cause for concern?

This is the problem. The creator of the thread said keep it on the upcoming season and now people revert right back to the nonsense. Toxic
Believe me its not a compliment PAL.If anyone reads all the 2022 posts,its pretty obvious.

Some people can't help themselves. It's become too easy to get caught in the weeds. Do I think it's him? No.
But I wouldn't be surprised if it actually was, judging by some of the stuff he's posted.

Concur. Although some would equate “heart” with “naivety” and “unrealistic,” there are studies that show people can lift more/do more/etc. if they really and truly believe.
Working with young men, you can either build them up or tear them down. Let’s build up the current team and encourage them. They are playing for Benedictine. This is the Home of Champions. Young men can still be inspired with the tradition. Interestingly, Coach Prevesk‘s senior football season at Benedictine was Coach Bossu’s last season as head coach.
Let’s keep inspiring our young men. We have something special here.
