@TheRanch18,
They were initially approved as Valid Change of Residence transfers, and then went under review and were ruled ineligible. There are only 2 reasons for that:
1. Fake paperwork and they did not actually live at the homes they were claiming they lived
2. Undue Influence
Either way, they were given bad advice by adults. And why is it that the kids who get bad advice from adults time and time again happen to be coached by Matt V? Coincidence???
Matt V may not be The problem, but he is A problem everywhere he goes. Cancer!!
MattV is not the problem! The problem is CIF! They abide by a different set of rules that it’s not fair to the schools or the kids! Schools like Mater Dei, St. John Bosco, and other big name high schools when they get a transfer, the kid is cleared within a week, but when a school like Nogales gets a transfer it take months to be cleared! Sometimes the athlete doesn’t get cleared! The process that CIF follows is flawed! In my opinion, CIF discriminates socioeconomically! Teams that make money for CIF get preferential treatment! It’s wrong!
Can anybody tell me a team who had success that hasn’t been riddled with transfers? The best team I can think of is the San Marino team that won cif and the regional. Hobbie didn’t seem like a recruiter, he seemed like a great coach.
MattV is not the one to blame.
BLAME THE PARENTS!
You really think MattV is running around looking for kids?
or
Kids are running around messaging MattV ?
all of Nogales kids were NOT denied for undue influence…
I avoided discussing #3 because it doesn’t seem to do any good and the defenders of illegal behaviors come out in droves. But I’ll go back to what I’ve said before. People will blame those who call out the illegal behavior to CIF with proof of undue influence by calling them “haters” and by saying the only person they are hurting are the kids. BUT, the people hurting the kids are the ones who knowingly break the undue influence rules. This isn’t the first time Villasenor has been the cause of forfeits. But some other school will still foolishly hire him.
He is a great Coach Matt V some said. he goes around giving high schools a bad wrap, but what really makes me wonder is that the principals keep hiring him. If he gets fired again the admin. should go with him. Look at what happened to Sierra Vista’s reputation, admin is still there and so is the AD and so is the Bad wrap…
#3 Add another program destroyed by this fraud. Matt V you’ve officially moved from hype man to cancer. You’re terrible for SGV sports. Go start over somewhere else.
#3…. Matt V effect didn’t take long to roost at Nogales
