WGH showing how stupid their Athletic Department/Booster Club has become. Took Reardon from 2004-2007 before we became relevant again. It take's 2-3 years to build a program.

What coach would want to go to this damn school after this ridiculous move!? Nobody wanted the job last year and nobody will want it this year.

Worth noting 21 WFMJ is reporting one potential coach could be WGH Basketball Coach Steve Arnold. May be the only guy that has the trust of the A.D. and booster club.

What a joke.

I also saw that Yeager at Niles resigned. Maybe he is going after the WGH job? :-)

How do you give a guy 1 year and take yourself seriously as an administration?

What HS in their right mind lets their Booster Club call so many of the shots?

Posters on other sites are stating that the new Head Football Coach is the current Head Basketball Coach.

Between the AD, school board, former superintendent, and the people "behind the scenes" they screwed up the last search royally. Now, they're going to do it again? Rios was screwed.

public schools have off years strongsville was 1-9 this year.i really think they set rios up to fail.they were running out of time in the spring needed a coach and hired him figuring with a thin senior class they could get rid of him because they would struggle.

Isn't this where West Branch's current coach came from?

The entire program needs to be taken apart to the foundation and rebuilt. Sad what it has come to.

Harding ran that coach out of town after making the playoffs last year.

Thanks, WGH fan. We can only hope the powers involved put all their personal BS aside; get a quality individual, then leave him alone.
