Frank Kalil is back. Coach Kalil was on the practice field today after school and will be coaching on the offensive side of the ball. Mixed feelings about this news. Good Servite guy but most Servite Football Fans remember him best for squandering some of the most talented offensive football teams w...

Think about all the old guard coming back. Kalil's, the Father and brothers (and all of Corona), Ciceros, Galippo, etc. Kalil himself will take a vested interest in Gass' success, but probably form a distance. This is a much bigger deal than if they hired an experienced coach. You can't buy this st...

Email we all just received.... AN OPEN LETTER TO SERVITE FANS Dear Friar Faithful, My name is AJ Gass and I have just been named the Head Varsity Football Coach at Servite High School. I would like to thank those who served on the search committee as well as the alumni, faculty, staff and parents I ...

Very pleased with this announcement! Gass defines Servite Football. He doesn't have the HC experience but he's been learning what it takes to run The Premier High School Football Program in Southern California under Troy Thomas for the past several years. He has the formula. Alumni will support Gass...

There's a lot of very poor talk on this board about Troy Thomas, and almost all of it coming from students, parents and alumni of Servite. You know, 8 years ago, Troy Thomas left Crespi for Servite, to a program in shambles -- a doormat for your pals across town at Mater Dei. How many losses in a r...

This has nothing to do with Thomas no longer "being a good fit at Servite". This has everything to do with Servite's Admin finally caving into years and years of frustrated parents who did not see eye-to-eye with the manner in which Coach Thomas ran his program. Pure and simple. Thomas did not want ...

At some point you would have thought Lame Kiffin would have pulled Wittek and given Kessler a shot. It did play out perfectly though for the incoming 5 Star freshmam as Wittek was as bad as he was at Mater Dei vs. GT. Thought Wittek would play better like he did vs. the Irish but he was absolutely a...

Is this what Matt Barkley was referring to when he called for a press conference to announce his return to USC for his senior season?? Was playing a 6-7 Georgia Tech squad in the Sun Bowl what Barkley was talking about when he arrogantly proclaimed he had "Serious Unfinished Business to attend to.....

PLEASE....PLEASE keep sending your QB's to USC. I beg of you, please keep sending Monarch signal-callers to play for the Trojans. Thank you Mater Dei QB's for the GIFT that was the 2012 USC Football Season.

Happy New Year!!

Nevada's Defense was as pathetic a defense as I've seen in a long time. Fajardo played a fantastic game and continues to prove why SO MANY schools missed out on offering this kid a ride a few years ago. Tell me he's not one of the top 10 QB's in the nation going into next season. If college coaches ...

Got word today that the following is Servite's non-league schedule (in no particular order):

Edison
La Mirada
Long Beach Poly
Bishop Gorman
De La Salle


Can anyone confirm?? If correct, THAT is a MONSTER schedule. Would be lucky to come out 2-3.

Why this comes as a surprise to ANYONE anymore is beyond me. This is vintage Mater Dei. There is ZERO excuse...ZERO excuse to be in a FULL COURT press when the game is that out of hand. For anyone to come on this board and defend Mcknight is as classless as that obese tub of lard himself. What I fin...

If seeing a bunch of 16-18 year old kids lose in a football game makes your weekend , I feel sad for you. At least you can hang another Freshman Football League Championship banner in your gym. A title is a title right? When Raul Lara is outcoaching you, it might be time to step aside. Just sayin....

Congratulations LB Poly on the Pac5 Title. Textbook Smashmouth Football....Punch You in the Mouth Football Clinic at the Big A last night. Thank you Poly for making my weekend that much better.

WOW, some of my favorite people in the world talking to each other. GO IRISH!!!! It has been too long. It has been WAY too long my fellow Domer. But how much sweeter was it clinching a spot in the Championship Game at the L.A. Coliseum vs. the Trojans. I tell you my group of fellow Irish Fans could...

Does this surprise anyone???

After seeing both teams play and evaluating their respective runs to the final, I would say MD is about a 7 point favorite based on their balanced offense, sound defense and most importantly significantly better coaching. Poly is extremely good defensively...I mean REALLY good. Their size, speed and...

USC - Preseason #1.....Arrogant self-promoting QB proclaims there's "Unfinished Business to attend to...." Notre Dame - Unranked in the Preseason - Humble All-American LB quietly announces his return for his senior season. DOES IT GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS???? Notre Dame 12-0 and playing for National...

It's a shame we won't be able to see Barkley play for the Trojans vs. the Irish this week. I wanted him to be on the field when we celebrated the Irish Victory that would send Notre Dame to the BCS National Championship. I'll have to settle for another Mater Dei QB, Max Wittek. I will be in attenda...
