Why would a HS head coach at one HS go be HC at another HS? Why are not longer term assistant coaches deserving a chance to HC not on your list?
...other than Ivory Sully, HAVE YOU SEEN THEIR LIST OF ASSISTANT COACHES?

A few names that I heard tossed around locally that may be interested in the job:
Anthony White - current head coach at Buena Park High School
Frank Mazzotta - current head coach at La Habra High School
Chris Reinert - current Graduate Assistant for defense at UCLA
Any thoughts on these coaches and maybe some that you have an insiders knowledge in.

a look at calpreps (since it is computer generated and not biased) showed they were 6-4 last year. BUT none of the 6 wins they had were over a team with a 0.0 ranking. their most quality win was over 2-8 fullerton who had a (-0.1) ranking. they also lost to a 5-6 sonora with a 9 rating.
he has been there for 3 years as i can see. going 6-5, 8-3, 6-4 for a 20-12 record which sounds decent. but only two of those wins are teams with over a 0.0 ranking.
some of the wins have been
sunny hills 3x, katella 2x, bolsa grande 2x, estancia, la quinta 2x, costa mesa 2x.
he has had only two wins over a team with a power ranking of over 0.0 troy (15.6) and sonora (4.9) both in 2011.
so he is 18-0 vs the teams under 0.0 and 2-12 with teams over a 0.0 rating.
just to throw out there three teams in the trinity were over a 60 last year.
now i understand he will have much better players. but you are talking about a coach who is going to go from a pre-season of cerritos (who quit after 4 games), magnolia, shurr TO bishop gorman, de la salle, a utah state champ????
heaven help him. thats an entirely different world.

TheRealist01 wrote:I'd hate for my first post to be negative, but I really can't stand some of the stuff I'm reading. SOCALFB your motives are somewhat transparent. You are either a BP booster, but most likely a coach. Coach White has done a great job of making BP relative. However he has done so by tireless recruiting of local talent and tireless self promotion. Just read his quote on how honored he is to coach the 605 game. The guy has made enemies with nearly every coach in North OC. Whalen, Peterson, Hastin, Caffrey, Mazzotta, Howell, Olsen, and Smilowitz are just a few coaches that can't stand him. It has nothing to do with his "enormous" success at BP. Like Bosco stated, he has really only beaten two teams that were in any way decent. He did so two years ago with 2 ringers that he brought in for that season. Christy the QB from Alaska who left BP a few weeks after the season, and Tupou whom he convinced to come to BP. Even with 4 kids getting scholarships, it took him 3OTs to be a Sonora team who lost everyone after their semi-final run. This year his only decent victory was losing to an injury decimated JSerra team. Following that he got crushed by both Sonora, Troy, and La Habra. No doubt Coach White has helped Buena Park and in no way can you take that away. But people are blinded by his constant self promotion and savior like attitude. This year BP should get second in league just based on talent alone, but we will have to see. Bottom line is Servite is not pursuing him and will not be hiring him...WHY WOULD THEY?

OhYeaaah! wrote:I hear there is a great workout program at BP called PTP every Saturday and coach white is using that to recruit players from other high schools. I know that because we received a invite in the mail for my nephew to check the PTP program every Saturdays at BP. I also heard from a coache that he sent emails out telling coaches that he will not be recruiting any players that are working that PTP program Saturdays, yeah....right.
TheRealist01 wrote:I love a good verbal jousting. Ahhh where to start. I truly don't want to get into a muscle flexing competition but I would bet my house that all of the aforementioned coaches have a problem with Coach White. In fact, because of my profession (not coaching anymore) I have spoken to each one of them about that exact subject, one last Friday. Some simply offered their information, others I've asked if it is true (what I hear that is). I can throw in a few more names but the ones I provided should be sufficient. Next point. You are 100% correct in that Coach White should be commended for the work he has done in getting guys like Barron and Taylor recruited. I met Oscar a few times and he was a great kid who loved Coach White. You still haven't talked about his ENORMOUS success at BP and why a school like Servite would pursue him. That is what initially sparked my disgust. You simply talked about his ability to get kids recruited, maybe he can be Servite's recruiting coordinator. Again what he has done is great at BP in that regard. Trust, if White was in consideration for the Servite job, they simply looked at his on field successes and went to the next resume. 0 playoff wins...0. Young coach and plenty of time to change that, but 0. So what credibility to be a Trinity level coach does he have? BP was struggling before he got there but they were also one of only 3 Freeway league schools to be in a CIF Championship in the 21st century (LH and Fullerton are the others). If anything Sonora's Chioti and Sunny Hills' Caffrey are more qualified...they actually have playoff victories. Sonora had its first two playoff victories in nearly 35 years under Chioti's watch. Caffrey had enormous success at Whittier Christian and was sorely missed when he left. My point is that you obviously have love for Coach White and as a BP supporter you should. But to come on here and make a profound statement like Servite is pursuing White is laughable and transparent.
