CantonBulldogFootball

I am grateful for the Canton football community that understands loyalty, character, and standing by people when it matters most.

To everyone who reached out, spoke up, stood by me and supported my family during this time - Thank you Your messages, letters, and presence meant more than you know. I remain proud of what we accomplished together.

The message sent to students, families, and the community is one I strongly disagree with, and one I never taught to the young people in our program.

What was difficult was not the adversity itself, but the lack of support during it. I believed, and still believe, that educators , and coaches should be judged on truth, fairness, and due process. Unfortunately, when those values were tested, they were not upheld.

I was placed on admin leave and, shortly thereafter, terminated before I had my day in court. I was never provided a clear reason for my termination beyond the existence of the charge itself. I was ultimately found not guilty, yet the decision was never reconsidered, or explained
