call me a nit picker, but to me a “mistake” is writing down the wrong jersey number by accident or having the wrong personnel on the field for a play call.
cheating is Intentional. cheating Is cheating. It’s a crime in the game of HS football. It’s unethical. Saying we made a mistake over and over is easy and cheap. But you didn’t. Say you cheated. Say you deserved to be fired.

Wasn’t Gregory the coach at Maplewood in like 08-09 range when they were good and had Bryant Allen? Believe he went to Minnesota for football and basketball.
I believe you're correct. 2010 they got beat by that outstanding Penney team.
Correct. Penney beat Valle in Class 1 in 2009 and then they moved up to class 2 the next year and won that as well, beating Gregory’s Maplewood team.
The move now is for him to take off the 2020 season and them pop back up at one of the irrelevant large schools in Chesterfield or St Charles . Or better yet one of the Illinois schools.
Makes ya wonder now if there was anything shady going on while he was at Maplewood. I mean they were dominant for a 4-5 year stretch. And now they’ve folded the program??

This article says another player, got ejected in the jamboree and he was supposed to sit out the 1st game as well. So they used 2 ineligible players.

Public Relations 101 — when you find yourself in a hole, stop talking.
This guy went out and did interviews after this fiasco and just made it worse by using vague and dodgy language, referring to the matter only as “mistakes were made” and generally coming across as the guy coaching a team of fourth graders at a random AAU tournament wearing a Go Pro on his head.

My buddy is sure that LN knew it when they scouted CR in Chicago. But from there has heard three different versions of events how it become public 7 weeks later.
Still can't imagine why, if in fact LN did report it, they would not have waited until CR had played their first district game.
Eh thats how a lot of Public schools are. Up and down unless you’re a really large one.
The Run with Maplewood went hand and hand with Bryant Allen being there. Maybe the greatest 3 sport athlete in the history of the state.
Maybe not to the extent that CR is accused, but you know it happens. It has happened to me. Your wait is over.
I believe he started and watched over a program that took all the "students" that couldn't get along in other schools. They all just happen to be big and fast athletes. Go Figure.
there is a charter school in KC (just as bad if not worse than a "private school" did the jersey switcharoo about 3 years ago....
Charter schools are basically private schools. They can go with the privates in their own class. We can call it the PC Class.
Apparently lack of it as well.
???? In 2011 the week before the semifinals game against Lamar, Maplewood’s coach (Gregory?) was fired and some players suspended. The rumor I heard at the time was Maplewood was using some ineligible players???
We don't need more classes to do this. Once the privates/charters are moved to the PC class, the publics can go to 5 classes. There will still be 6 11-man classes. Problem solved. You are welcome.
Or how about schools with black athletes have their own state? Noone cares about playing Westminster, Priory or Valle Catholic.
If you think people don't complain about Valle, Rockhurst, Helias, etc. recruiting, then you aren't paying attention.
Just think how good STL football would be if they had the fall league basketball elites that play in the IAABO.
If they can't scream "racism" they don't have an argument.
They could have a corruption bowl for the STL Private School Title. Games will be played with no jersey numbers so no one can get busted.

Its is a factor and I HATE it. Its absolutely disgusting. I've been watching these threads for years and the same people complain about the same schools over and over again. This thread has over 15,000 views because for some reason this forum loves to bash anything related to Lutheran North, Trinity, Cardinal Ritter, CBC etc.
Lift for Life does not have a field, so all of their games are away games. Kids also have to practice in parks in the area or across the river at the Kersee center. Very limited budget and the definition of doing more with less. Coach Bevis and his staff do a great job.
Coach Bevis was fired last year for a similar reason as Coach Porter at Roosevelt. When coaches care about their kids in STL public schools...they get canned lol. That's just another reason families send their kids to the Cardinal Ritters etc
You may want to check what you actually know. Honestly, I have heard three different schools mentioned as the ones that did it. I wouldn't put their names out unless I was certain the information was valid. LN keeps coming up because people reach a certain way about the way they are building their program and they are trying to tarnish their rep. LN was looking forward to playing Ritter in districts and getting the chance to avenge the earlier loss especially with their full team intact. There are other schools that have a lot more to gain with the demise of the Ritter than LN.
Yep, another good coach gone then. I know he put a lot into that program.
