Spoke with some very creditable people last night. It was their belief that the superintendent at Perkins slashed the athletic departments budget and forced out their athletic director.

Hope the Super has a large support group.

Must have forced out all the starting football players, too! It sure looked like the Pirate JV team on the field last night.

Must have forced out all the starting football players, too! It sure looked like the Pirate JV team on the field last night. Didn't have a chance to go, but friends I've spoken to since last night have one word for the Pirates' play and appearance: "sloppy." Quisno was a greater factor in that team's success than he was given credit for, and he was given credit for quite a bit. Good discipline and character weren't the only things he took out the door with him; on the coaching side, the brains walked out the door, as well. As for the new super, it seems Perkins replaced an absentee meddler in the person of J. Gunner with competent, talent-importing tyranny, laced with apathy for the locals who have been living in and working for Perkins their whole lives. We (yes, I'm alumnus, too) should have gone with Brand from South Central or Parmigan from Oak Harbor. Both were in districts smaller than Perkins, but Perkins is still not as "big-time" as some people would believe. Either one of those two would have brought a more "small community" mindset to the table, and would be less likely to hold us natives in contempt, than the current administration. The current Super has brought quite a large Parma following with her, piecemeal, to win positions within the district, and that's disturbing to not just me.

Athletic departments are self-sufficient. They do not receive funds from the district.

Very few athletic departments are self-sufficient.

Here's a few things....
1. Strohl left because Perkins wouldn't bend over backwards and give him a higher level administrators position. 2. Offensively last season Perkins was prone to turnovers and penalties. I thought that was pretty obvious and I'm guessing I could find multiple threads discussing that on the old forum. The difference last year was they had better players to overcome those situations but it still bit them in the $ss. This season they have a lot less talent and the room for error is minimal if they want to beat decent teams.

Strohl, in my opinion, did "just okay" in his AD position - putting him in an office more critical to administrating the education process would have been a boondoggle. They replaced him with a local and long-time teacher/coach, but they are saving the plum positions for Parma transplants, i.e., friends and lackeys of the Super.
