The letter jacket decision has been reversed after many complaints from parents and students. What I am hearing most recently was that anyone could buy the jackets that players use for letter jackets (without the letter) even if you aren't an athlete.
I am also hearing that there are many middle school students looking to leave Briarcrest not just because of footbal, but the whole atmosphere has changed since Bill McGee came to the school.
In addition I have heard that most, if not all, of the assistant coaches won't be coaching there next year either. The main one that needed to go other than Hamstra was the offensive coordinator Dodd Gengenbach and the defensive coach McGee. They will NOT be back on the sidelines and they have been told that. Gengenbach was the WORST excuse for an offensive coordinator in the history of high school football. It is no wonder St. George's fired him. He was horrible, didn't know what players to play in which positions and called the stupidest plays anyone has ever seen. In short he is a total loser.
Coach Powers is a fine man and a good coach, however given the current administration's view on athletics he is going to have a very tough time turning it around, but I hope he can because like I said he is a good man.
