RIP Coach Beam. Father-figure to sooo many. Poured himself into the community. Rest up Coach ❤️
Today the nation is hurting. We lost Coach John Beam. A lot of folks met him through Netflix and “Last Chance U” but out here in the Bay he was already a legend long before the cameras showed up. Beam spent decades at Skyline and Laney, built a powerhouse, and brought Laney a national championship. But the wins were never the whole story. He followed the blueprint laid down by his mentor Stan Peters. Build players, sure, but build men first. Anyone who came through his program knows exactly what that means. He changed lives. He opened doors. He pushed you, challenged you, and believed in you even when you didn’t fully believe in yourself. His impact runs deep across generations of Bay Area football. And today, all of us who were touched by his work are feeling this loss. Rest easy, Coach Beam. Your legacy lives on in every player you molded and every life you lifted.

The result of competitive equity in CIF & it is crushing small-school programs across Cali😳 Mediocre big schools drop into small-school divisions - but small schools have no division to drop down to🤷‍♂️ Schools ‘voted’ for this - schools can ‘unvote’ it & return to Common Sense🇺🇸
Text from St. Helena AD Brandon Farrell. 6 of the 9 teams in the NCL I were playoff eligible, including 8-2 Willits, but just one made it (Kelseyville). Farrell says the NCL I will be sending a response to the NCS.

Quick-hit thoughts on @cifsjs 2nd round games Division 1 8 Downey at 1 Folsom 5 Granite Bay at 4 Inderkum 6 Turlock at 3 Central Catholic 7 Monterey Trail at 2 Oak Ridge * Downey can score in bunches, but so can Folsom. * MT has speed and a super back in Sanders; Oak Ridge is battle-tested from the SFL * Turlock-CC is a showdown in the 209 * Granite Bay RB/DB Isaiah Ene and Inderkum QB Ricky Cole are headliners.
