The coach U era at LB mercifully ended last night. The team lost, but it was a win for the program now that he will be gone. Lackluster tenure that completely failed to advance the program. Zero wins against their biggest rival and only a couple playoff appearances. Hopefully the administration learned from this and is able to upgrade and pull the team out of this quagmire. The only people upset are his former BL or Loyola College buddies that no longer are able to send their kids to LB and be guaranteed a spot on varsity as freshman. I guess that’s how the Cookie crumbles. . . twice.
There seems to be a lot of finger pointing at every school that is not MCD, BL and CHC. Get used to it, at least for a while. The playing field is not level and won't be as long as transferring in from elsewhere and being allowed to play immediately is allowed. If you have to sit a year if you transfer within the MIAA, then it is only fair that you have to sit if you transfer from elsewhere. The rest of the MIAA needs to stand up to MCD, BL and CHC, before this practice becomes the norm and those 3 teams are 3 of the final 4 every year. The fourth will be the school that happens to have a core of good players, kids of alums and can possibly pick up some disgruntled kids from the other 3 schools who hopefully see the writing on the wall before 9th grade. It is sad to see what is happening to a once great conference.
