Per the SJV Student Handbook which the student is required to sign along with a parent:
I’m not condoning Knox’s actions or how Vianney is handling it but good luck finding any school that is going to discipline spectators at away games. Many schools disappointingly won’t even do anything at home games, which is why the West Deptford crowd was able to antagonize as much as they did.
Right. And the collingswood AD, sight supervisors, and security did nothing to keep the West Deptford crowd under control. They’re a rowdy group who have started problems multiple times this season.
Apparently spectators and security have NOT corroborated the Knox version of verbal abuse. You don’t think Delbarton, CBA, etc. gets abused yet I don’t recall any other instances of father and son ending up in cuffs. Knox Sr. Is acting like a victim and it’s laughable.
I’m sure every away team has gotten their fair share of heckling, private or public. I’ve been to more high school matches in more gyms than I care to count, rarely does it result in an explosion. I’ve repeatedly said that Knox Sr. was the spark that caused everything to blow up, and that everyone involved including Knox Jr. has some level of culpability for what happened.
Wishful thinking , I’ve heard mr knox bullies everyone over there and before Knox got there i think they were still rolling out mats in the lunchroom to practice and now they are nationally known
The rolling out the mats in the lunchroom was true. A few years ago they converted a classroom into a dedicated wrestling room
Yea I remember Peterson talking about the no wrestling room situation in an interview a few years back
From what I hear there are a lot of kids paying for CutPro. As if Knox’s lemon/salt/honey mix is how he made weight all these years. If these kids would focus more on wrestling and development instead of the scale may be AC wouldn’t look like a casting call for Snow White and Seven Dwarfs. Simple solution = mat-side weigh-ins would save the wrestling world.
Nah, kids will figure out real quick they need to stop cutting and the net effect is kids will wrestle closer to their natural weight. What these kids are doing now is already too dangerous and stunting their growth.
So an officer witnessed him punch a minor and he was arrested and charged and he can still wrestle this weekend? Amazing
Rumors that one of the people that were struck was a female minor.
It’s really unbelievable when you factor in that it’s caught on camera, charges pressed, plus officer witness. If this was any league, whether little league or pros, he would not be allowed to compete. Bad look for SJV and I’d be interested in knowing what law school the Judge went to LOL
I can’t say I followed the case/ruling beyond media sources but Judge was never determining guilt it was whether NJSIAA could DQ Knox based on the rules which i guarantee if you gave that order to show cause to a judge in any other county Knox would be at Ithaca right now training.
The quotes from the Judge make no sense. Due process? NJSIAA violated Knox rights? The “bench area” is what was important? A competitor assaulted a juvenile spectator at a NJSIAA event and it’s on film, with witnesses, charges pressed…Hope NJSIAA appeals because this is a crazy precedent that will have been set.
You need to NOT be a three time champ with a loud mouth, testosterone raged father who needs his son to win the illustrious fourth title. OR, you need to be a high school who has a set of cajones and is willing to discipline your student for breaking the law and violating the code of conduct set forth by the school.
Just a quick question......is Cornell watching all this? I know....stupid question!
Is anybody who makes rational and/or reasonable decisions watching all this?
