HS wrestling gets good action. I'm pretty sure many Central Ohio coaches post here.

True. Maybe we focus on wrestling as our niche? Not really sure how to grow their other than word of mouth. And unfortunately I am not going to be coaching this season.

Off topic, but why no coach?

Non-renewed.
Reasons were discussed behind closed doors.

Speculation was rampant but was leaked out that since he was the owner of such a lowbrow website he no longer portrayed a positive image to the kids.

Does suck having to give up coaching. I coached HS baseball in the summer for close to 10 summers. Took up a boatload of time and once the season was over it seemed like summertime was as well.

I think it has been said many times. People dont post cause they dont want to be made fun of or catch hell cause they dont know the inside joke. You got rid of the only mod that was actually doing his job. Whether he was somewhat biased is besides the point he actually kicked people out that needed kicked out of threads. It is sad that people have left due to the amount of hell they catch cause of their view or something stupid they have said. A little ribbing is alright no matter where you are but when every time you post someone comments about that certain instance it gets old. This is just my opinion though.

Staying off topic:

This summer will be my last summer of coaching baseball. Takes up too much time and there are too many other things I want to do.

Getting back on topic:

We can use @cruiser_96 's Inside the Circle(or whatever) as something to draw the wrestling crowd. I really think this could be a good idea.

I hate Summer coaching. I've discovered the greatest level of coaching... Junior High (football)! Summer commitments in August, but by that time, school's right around the corner anyway. Literally zero off-season commitments.

Yeah, my brother in law has that gig and loves it.

It did take alot of time. It was six days a week for june and july for the longest of times. Then we started taking Sun/Mon off in a compromise with basketball and it helped out everyone involved. We pretty much had a game scheduled 5 days a week and at least on DH a week, and sometimes two, and just counted on rainouts to supply us with some rest time for the pitching staff. Basically gave it up when I left for basic training a few years ago and I am starting to think I want to get back into it.

I honestly don't view the High School forums on here very often at all. I get my high school info from themaconline but only cause it's local. It seems like the high school forums on here are really dominated by the Northeast schools, I may be wrong. Just seems that way.

SPeaking of MOL, Can you log in? Takes me 5-6 times to even get logged in, and then it does not let me post at all since they changed it on over. Then I try to PM and says it is full, etc.

And I am supposed to be a MOD on there..........

Well, i tried to do some recruiting on Yappi in their general forum. I had a post deleted about something on the edge and then posted how I forgot where I am posting sometimes and tought I was on ohiochatter.com.

A few of them followed and stated the site looks legit and are gonna come on over and try it out.

As I was trying to respond how the OC started, hit the submit button and the thread was gone.

Assuming a ban will come soon

Yeah.... one in particular seemed to be shady but who knows about the others.

Not everyone can be upstanding members like yourself. Has to be some room for riff raff right?

I've just grown bored with the content. There aren't many topics that have been interesting to me lately. I have no problem with individual members.
