Question For SFL Fans/Followers
- Thread starter remc
- Start date
DO, GB, RHS are boundary public schools, not sure about OR. Quietly the rest of the league does not approve of Folsoms tactics. Few years ago they closed open enrollment, transfers did not enter and competitive edge was visibly disappearing. It was then quickly reopened....I am sure they have another version. They have influence in many forms.
OR is harder to get into than MIT if you aren't in the area. Virtually impossible for an out of area kid which has been a huge disadvantage for them. I know of at least 3 kids who are dominant on Folsom football team who live in EDH. Ryder Lyons being one of them. The hoop team has 3 starters who live in EDH as well. But if I'm a good basketball player I'm not playing at OR. One of the worse programs around. So do I blame the kids? Heck no. Football is a little different. OR has a very good program and last year you take Lyons off of Folsom and OR goes to a SBG. He is the difference maker. But can I blame him?? Been a lot of success in that program. Its a lot like college now. Coaches have lost the upper hand and its become the wild west. Kids come and go like the wind. These are the times.
I have no idea how anyone feels about Folsom as of today, but back in 2018, several of the SFL schools wanted Folsom to go independent in football. The Sac Bee did a pretty big write-up and a version of the story made it into USA Today High School Sports.
I bumped that old thread from back then. Here's a link. Most of the article is available in the first post.
Folsom possibly being exiled from SFL
VERY interesting...Kind of funny too. I remember a scene from the DLS movie when the there is a league meeting and the other teams threaten to not play them. The same thing is happening in the foothills it seems. Article also copy and pasted in case you don't get the link...

They have been beaten. Rocklin got them and Granite Bay Did as well. OR has had a long 20-year gap but was so close last year.
I think they should definitely schedule better. Serra and LBP proved to be pretty weak. OR had a harder SOS.

How is scheduling Serra pretty weak? They couldn't even beat a 5-6 Serra team at home, beat the teams on your schedule first and then schedule up
