I know we have beaten the open enrollment dead horse on other treads, but OHSAA has to address this excessive transfering of kids to other schools for sports. This is totally unfair to the kids who work their butts off and stay, and then have to compete against their former teammates who leave for their own personal benefit. High expectations can go out the window with the loss of a few good athletes. It has been addressed. If you won't allow people to move or ban kids from playing sports if they open enroll, then this country becomes akin to a communist country. Maybe they transferred to other schools for better academics and just happen to play a sport. Just because you can start for DV Willard, 5-5 in the River Division against D6 and D7 teams, Does not mean you can play for DIII Final Four Norwalk, that plays in the Lake Division.

Actually, that goes for the starting LG at Ross(TRAC) whom transferred to Norwalk as well. In case anyone forgot, Truckers return whole OL that is already big, athletic, and physical.

If you are good enough to start at Ross chances are you are good enough to play at Norwalk.

Well the Willard lineman knows he is giving up second half of season and playoffs. Price he was willing to pay to play for Fox. His senior year I'm sure he will have no regrets. As far as hard working, many times he was the only kid in the weight room where his Dad had to come in and spot him. I'm sure Devier resigning when he did and not having a head coach caused a lot of this. But they did give contracts to some of the assistant coaches before hiring of head coach. Once this player was locked out of the weight room and this particular assistant coach driving by, he asked him to unlock the door to the weight room. The coached replied he didn't have time he had some where to go! But he has made time to schedule a meeting and call him since though. Nobody knows all the details on why some one transfers. I know plenty of stories and the kids have reasons to do it in Willard. A lot of you cry and don't know one kid or why. Your responses sound like it too. Come up with more rules to stop it just shows you don't know the problem. It's those that call the shots in Willard that need to go. Then you would have those kids in Willard still.

There’s got to be one heck of a story here to make a kid give up half of his senior year. The flip side of this is that as a coach why would you play a kid on varsity that you know won’t be there week 6? Especially so if you are a playoff team.

I met the old man, and he offered concerns leading to transfering to Norwalk.

If you are good enough to start at Ross chances are you are good enough to play at Norwalk. Times have changed. Plus, there's a reason Ross underachieved the last 2 years, and a reason Norwalk overachieved last year, and it isn't due to competition. As I said, he'll have to earn it esp with we have coming back.

I was at the Norwalk football golf outing. There were more people from Willard golfing in the outing than there were playing for the Flashes 7 on 7. Nothing but total positive momentum over there, everyone wants to go there, play there.
Willard may not finish the damn season.
Anyone that's not 1000% clear that Fox was the right, only, best, clearest, easy, insane not to pick choice are living on the damn moon.

You can rehash the Todd Fox situation for the rest of your life but it’s not going to do anything to make Willard football better. Focus on the present or atleast be quiet so the new coach can work with less headwinds.

This is a sports forum full of individual opinions. Warning: some topics may not be agreeable to all readers. Don't blame Willard's problem on a discussion on a sports forum. Those that be in power have suppressed Willard long enough. Stating the truth on here is not a cause to Willards problems. We can bury our heads in the sand and resinate with positive thinking but that doesnt change the administration in Willard. Willard Football is gonna suffer regardless of any comment posted on here. Good luck to Willards young coach. He is in a good spot. No one expects him to win. So no pressure, if he loses, not his fault. If he wins he will be a hero and the choir and music classes k-12 will sing songs about him!

This administration is all getting close to retirement age and they will leave with their golden parachutes and leave the mess for the next administration to try and clean up. What I hope doesn't happen is the top brass tries to get his puppet in there that he has been grooming for the last few years because we have all saw how well she has turned the grades around in the school (yes, that is heavy sarcasm). Nothing will change until there is a complete overhaul of the people at the top.

One person had reservations however several top men and women came to enlighten that one person, big win for Norwalk that they did. Coach Fox had an incident at Willard during his wrestling tenure that will likely make his return home highly unlikely. He had several good seasons at Calvert and 2018 was a good one in Norwalk. The buzz is the Truckers will be as good or better this year. As Willard found out last year in basketball, a few transfers make the coaches instantly better. coreprodint.ode.state.oh.us/core2.3/ode.core.EducatorProfile.UI/DocumentViewer.aspx?key=1162609

Then a LARGE waste of money for the new artificial turf. "Build it and they will come", did not happen. If not football, then it can be used for DrugMart's beloved soccer team.

I read the letter in the above post by the poster notsofast,,and was quickly reminded,,, One of my old coaches made this statement,,"the problem is never the problem. How you handle the problem, THAT'S the problem". It remains an incredibly unfortunate event that has adversely affected umpteen kids, families and even two sports programs,,and it happened 10 years ago.

I have heard that a few businessmen in town have a lot of input on picking these coaches. What qualifications do they have, other than to toot their own horn that they are part of the process. i think it starts at the Thunderbolt level and up. Letting Danny Pauly leave this program was the first bad decision. I would clean house in middle school and get someone in there that doesn’t run good players off to other schools.

Which Coach are you referring to that "a few businessmen in town have a lot of input on". I personally have had input on only two coaches at Willard,,,Coach Noss and now Coach Kade Long. And what does that have to do with Coach Fox or the problems with lack of numbers?

Idk about the country but they are leaving Willard in droves. I hear there is a crisis at the city limits of all other neighboring towns outside of the Willard school district! The towns need water, tooth brushes, and more athletic equipment!!!

Your dad is a racist, sexist, xenophobic, homophobic, islamophobic, transphobic, anti-Semite, Jew loving, jerk. Let's take a look at what he tweeted out that the media correctly (they didn't fake news this) called racist.
^^^ That's vile. Your Dad should be Impeached. I underlined and put in bold the only 2 words the media quoted from his rant. He said a lot of words but only those two words were quoted and they are vile. "Go back" That's racist. It's a shame he colluded with Russia to beat me in 2016. It's a shame he has white guys beating up Jessie Smollett in the dead of winter at 2 am in Chicago and shouting 'this is MAGA country' to him. It's a shame he tricked those Covington kids to be so disrespectful to that Native American. Those kids should rot in jail for what they did, just like Trump.
I'm just hoping Ilhan Omar who is from Somalia (what a wonderful country) doesn't get in trouble for marrying her brother to commit immigration fraud. That's totally normal, only Trump would find fault in a brother and sister marrying, it looks like he is incestphobic too. Trump's vile.
