They have two of the assistant coaches who had been really running the program last few years back along with two alumni to help finish the season.

sad how the oal is so down, but like a few people said on here most of the problem is the o high AD its been that way for some time now. the kids need to b thought of first and the qb at o-high is a very good player

I think O-High will play their remaining games, it was never said that they forfeited the season. So they should play Saturday!

First of all one reason to play sports in highschool is to get a div 1 scholarship alot of these kids no matter what school they attend or neighbor hood they live can’t afford 4yrs of college. year long work out programs arent the problem I’d rather have my kiod there instead of playing video games all day or worse in these streets.I can think of alot worse thing to do than working out for 3hrs a day.

The problem we are facing is that it takes a villager to raise a child. Head coaches must push education more adminstrations need to support all athletics more with progress reports on grades and behavior in class. coaches must be willing to punish there best plAYERS for insubordination. the parents must get involved ALOT MORE! AND SUPPORT THE COACHING STAFF AND SCHOOL! Dont be the enalber. three components must come together as one ebal schools are successful because they have that and it starts from when the kids are 9-10 playing in the feeder programs they support. those kids no where there headed and what there goals are when they get to highschool and it can happen for any school who wants to put the time in.with the help of parents you can develope a support system and your future coaches and players!
