cost of the officiating crew is subtracted the remainder is then divided equally between the two participating schools so in theory cof stood to make a larger return by only playing the biggest schools now you might be thinking well flim that's cool but what the hell do the bigger schools get out of playing a team with basically no fans well sometimes when you already rolling in the dough every single move you make doesn't actually have to be about money according to ohio native type arla sick who reached out to me via email the reason teams in ohio scheduled them was out of necessity for a game to fill their schedules teams in ohio especially successful ones without conferences struggle to find games to fill their NUMBER_TOKEN-game schedule so teams either find a bad team similar in size a team from canada or face a smaller team that they know will give them points that go towards their harbin rankings which determine their playoff seeding other reasons include a break from playing a top competition to get an easy w in the win column and a nice stat pad game is always nice yeah in college we start every season against appalachian state or some slack division two team kick the living get their confidence out cof used the schedule as part of their recruiting strategy the pitch was basically something along the lines of playing all the top schools would allow you to gain exposure this is top talent so the whole place is going to be flooded with scouts you come here you play well you get a dNUMBER_TOKEN scholarship that's just what it is problem is not only was the recruiting and recruiting in general filled with a whole bunch of false promises you gotta remember this is high school and in ohio at least recruiting is not even allowed here's a quote from coach varney at grove city high on the cof academy recruiting situation they were recruiting my kids calling them picking them up taking them on visits and who knows what they were telling these kids they convinced them that they were going to get them to a dNUMBER_TOKEN school they told one kid they were going to get him reclassified as a junior so he could start his recruiting over again but recruiting got to be the only job where like boldface lying is considered a valuable job skill only a few months into the school's inaugural season and it ran into a huge problem amy church the school's only source of financial backing yeah they backed out after opening the season NUMBER_TOKEN-NUMBER_TOKEN roy johnson woke up to some terrible news the ame church posted a message on their website completely denying any involvement of any kind with christians of faith academy then later just to further drive the point home the church's attorney posted this message the ame church was never affiliated with them persons that were involved in this i believe may be ame members of a local church or something like that but they've gone off into their own business enterprise and naturally wanted to present their business enterprise to the ame church and his members to see if they would be interested in that if there was any representation that there was an affiliation or that the ame church or the third district was approving or disapproving any of their actions that is not the case there is no affiliation straight up now at first glance the whole no affiliation thing doesn't really seem to add up as this week news found several emails shared between roy johnson and the church alright this might take a second to break down
