According to a report from The Repository, the Canton City school board unanimously voted Thursday to not renew the contracts of head football coach Marcus Wattley, assistant coaches Cade Brodie and Tyler Thatcher, while also deeming assistant coaches Frank McLeod, Zachary Sweat, and Josh Grimsley as ineligible for future positions. Assistant baseball coach Romero Harris, who had "related duties" in the school's weight room, was also dismissed. The firing of over half a dozen coaches stems from what was described as a "misguided attempt to instill discipline." The coaches in question had allegedly punished a player for missing a voluntary strength and conditioning workout by forcing him to eat an entire pepperoni pizza, which is in direct violation of the student's Hebrew Israelite religious beliefs. Following an investigation into the incident, Canton City Schools Superintendent Jeff Talbert called the coaching staff's actions "inappropriate, demeaning and divisive."
