This won't help them be a top 25 team in California.

Nice write up!.... Not sure Del Oro will have enough to get by Folsom or Oak Ridge in their league.... Week 2 game against Saint Francis Mountain View should be a good one!....

That Tabor game should be interesting.  It's always been somewhat of mystery just how good (or bad) those NEPSAC teams are, as they rarely play anyone other than themselves.

Heard playing with themselves will lead to blindness 🤷🤣.

THE 'MONEY MAN'

One of the biggest stories in recent prep sports history broke last fall when the emergence of Brett Steigh, also known as the 'Money Man', who made an appearance on FATTAL FACTOR, a weekly live sports show via Youtube with hosts Tarek Fattal and Aram Tolegian.

Steigh admitted to years of CIF violations at programs like Narbonne (his alma mater), St. Bernard, and most recently, Bishop Montgomery. The biggest confession came when he admitted to paying families up to $50,000 (plus expenses) to get their sons to play high school football at a program of his choice.

The fallout from the story resulted in Bishop Montgomery cancelling its varsity football season. The head football coach Ed Hodgkiss was fired and the President of the school Pat Lee was forced to resign. More than 20 players were deemed ineligible and hit with Bylaw 202 for falsifying documents, which means the student-athletes can't participate in varsity athletics for up to 24 months.


I really don't understand way grown people do this.What are they getting out of it??

Coach making sure nobody gets in trouble in Vegas

I don't care whether we're playing in Utah or Vegas, I'm going to protect our kids the same way," Negro said. "We really don't give them any time alone. The biggest thing is midnight to 6 a.m. when the kids go to bed. What we've done is hire private security to roam the halls and make sure nobody gets out and nobody gets in."

Exactly, it doesn't make sense.... It's not like HSFB generates tons of money to profit from paying families.... You pay 10 families $50k that's $500k, what is the point?.... How do you profit from this?....

I don't really "like" this, but it's the only choice.  It's actually a pretty pathetic situation.  And why are these sketchy schools always Bishop Something?
