Don't know how is in Ohio etc, but in California, teacher's contract includes stipends for 'extra duty', also known as coaching. The irony is that if a teacher wants the position/stipend, they are given preference over any 'walk-on' coach (non-teacher). Sometimes, they are discouraged from taking. However if they are insistent, they get the position/stipend, regardless of their qualification. Which may be what your son is experiencing. With his BA, extra-base hits, seems reasonable that they'd find a spot for him in the line-up. All the HS coaching positions are that of being a teacher to these kids, and JVs are especially for getting experience and showing them how to do it. Feel for ya, and believe it or not, the varsity coaches have little or no impact on how the JV does things. Being a helicopter parent myself, I might corner a varsity coach, and lay out your case. Probably PO the JV coach when he finds out, so that's the risk. They can always call up your kid to varsity and teach him, give him a chance. Good luck with this, and keep this group informed.....

Showing up and her place and warning to get messy with butter?

I can see that, but no knife is needed.

So you're saying you'd show up with something smaller than most would consider a "knife" but it still get the job done?

Pretty good comeback, both by the Reds and their marketing department.

So, by picking an A&M edge in the second round this year, are they admitting the A&M edge they picked in the first round last year is a bust?

Moore, 40, responded to the firing by driving to Shiver's apartment and confronting her. Shiver, 32, told police that the married father of three grabbed a butter knife and threatened to harm himself.

Really hoping Mendoza flames out, so he can be called Jamarcus Mendoza.

Glad to see them drafting OL, but the choices seem a bit suspect

It's a bastardized version of the Law of Large Numbers - if you keep drafting them, eventually one will be good. I guess.

Well at least Desmond has history on his side, the last Browns offensive player to be recognized as ROY was...<shuffles notes>...Bobby Mitchell in 1958.

Bobby was filthy.

I doubt she has anymore information than any other run-of-the-mill. If so, she would have told Vrabes not to run head first at the weakside stab blitzes the Seahawks kept sending.

I’m sure some of her anonymous sources feel duped.

Good for Kmac. Ohioan by honors, but gets to go back home to Texas. That Houston defense is going to be blunt force effective again.

Here is a question that absolutely nobody is asking: this reporter had unfettered access to every team in the NFL…how much inside information has she been passing to Vrable since 2018? Feels like that is important information to know.

Up too early, so I took a look at one mock draft for next year. They have Manning going first. And this mock did include underclassmen who will be draft eligible.

I’ve been quietly seething about the Niners draft so far. This helped.
