Isn't this preliminary before the CB numbers are out and this can still change?

I believe these are final (a few may change due to errors, but generally these are complete). Toledo Central Catholic is listed as D4 pre CB, and then their CB bumps them up to D3. Phila was surprisingly close to being D2- listed as the 4th biggest in the division this cycle.

Edit: actually Phila was D2 but CB bumped a few schools below them up to D2, which pushed them down to D3.

The Columbus schools are always strong but I think historically Dover has has the most success in region 11. Steubenville,Granville and Hartley will be front runners
Man - leaving off Watterson after a state runner up season and 50% of the starters coming back with last years best freshman class in maybe decades. Whew - might become bulletin board my man. ha ha
 
Last year Watterson lost to DeSales, while our one-game-over .500 team running clocked them after a 2-hour bus ride. I'm not worried.
 
Dover is a really nice program and they will play anybody. But I’d take Watterson over them every time in 2024. You can never judge Watterson or Desales by the outcome of that game. Kind of the same as New Philly/Dover

Last year Watterson beat Chardon, Who beat Ursuline by 17, Ursuline beat Canfield, and Canfield beat Dover! Watty not too worried! ha ha 2 can play at this game.

You got your panties all in a bunch when all I did was say the Columbus schools are always tough then noted 2 other non Columbus schools.

Correct, my panties got bunched but Watterson earned right to be in that sentence...... ha ha. Am I wrong for a team that went too Canton and beat Hartley 35-7 last year!
 
Has he landed anywhere yet?
Last I heard he will be an assistant for Coach Ifft this year. I thought he would have been a perfect fit for the TV position. Anyone who can turn Sandy Valley and West Holmes around should be the #1 target for any area school who needs a coach, IMO.

I was wondering if being let go and the reason for his non-renewal would be something that would keep him from getting another top job quickly.
 
Because he got in a few kids face, during a game and little Johnny didn't like it,it was just in the heat of the moment in a big game,Gardner is just a high spirited guy when coaching a football game

So you’re saying he could have had other head coaching jobs but did not apply for them and him being fired carried no affect? That’s what I was wondering.

I don’t think he’s on the Dover staff as of right now
