The kids left Buchtel for Firestone right after the Griffs former coach went to jail.

Why can't Massillon play Buchtel at InfoCision Stadium?!?

Let's see here, Powers first year at Buchtel was 2007, the upcoming season, will be 2011, that will be his 5th year at the helm, so these kids were in the 7th and 8th grade when they left? What took so long to come back? Why not in Powers second season? Third? Why not last year? I get it, winning cures all ills.

Asking ME why they can't play at Infocision is a lost cause, I don't make the schedules, I would guess that win or lose, bringing a team into PBTS nets a pretty nice payday.

There would be a very good crowd at InfoCision Stadium for a Massillon vs. Buchtel game especially if the game was on a Thursday or Saturday night. It might be close to a sellout.

Massillon/Mckinley didn't sell out there in '09....Massillon/Buchtel sure as hell aint going to.

Buchtel is an Akron team. The stadium would be packed on a Thursday or Saturday night and almost packed on a Friday night.
