    Bishop Amat is getting Desperate with this hire. He can’t recruit anymore without a Millionare Backer. Amat will be in CIF Violations soon.

    This cat bobs and weaves more than Sugar Ray, is twitchier than Usain Bolt on meth and has a fatter ego than Trump. The Mid should not try to keep up with this dude. I doubt he knows where he is gonna be in the morning. It is good summer reading though. Jilted lovers, new bromances all over the place. Hagerty is the latest bachelor hoping to get the rose today.

    “Made an offer he couldn’t refuse” = Amat players vs Monrovia players. 🤔

    So in other words the mid was wrong again. First rule of journalism is to have more than one credible source Timmy boy
    From T. Peterson: Two things: 1. The head coach isn’t a credible source when an assistant is being hired? And I did have two sources. The guy that was hired (told me Saturday) and the guy that hired him (told me Sunday)
    2. Actually I was right. He did agree to join the staff and was on the staff…for one day.

    Wow, did Chris Williams and the Monrovia School District just dodge a huge meteorite by not hiring Matt Villasenor? Now Bishop Amat has begun drinking the kool-aid and is looking desperate. So, what was the Lancers big time offer? Some free gear, a couple of burritos, two 50 yard line seats and a parking security gig? This guy is a weirdo. Amat’s President and AD should be aware of the possibility that they’ll probably receive no donations from particular alumni if certain records are broken. Anyway there’s no deal until all the background checks are completed and the president of the school allows the AD to sign off. Lancers good luck with the nuclear fallout on this one. Everyone else grab a chair, some popcorn and a cold drink this experiment is going to be a big fail.

    Big tech censorship sucks…. Keep on rocking in the free world!

    Moe Green, Sonny and the five families send their regards to Matt for knowing when to not turn down an offer.

    @#1- Never seen a get back coach tweet so much about a job search. He has tweeted about being hired at multiple programs i the past few days and this Monrovia job is old news already. Bishop will probably regret this hire because every win or loss will be tweeted about with his spin. How many great asst. coaches have ever had to look for a gig by tweet. Like great football players, if you are good no need to talk, they will find you. Robledo gets his wish
