    Wow Mr. zonekiller, these are some of the many many comments you have made in the past. I always try to seek out why someone would hate, but the comments I found made it obvious.....see below.
    At least I know you are not just targeting Vaughan. You seem to hate a lot of people, at least your consistent. Freedom of Expression is a gift. Good luck and enjoy the game.

    The below are some commnets by zonekiller:

    as long as coach paul keeps his mouth shut and keeps his opinions to himself, Nik may have a chance!!! Sorry coach p, I had to say it

    Coach Paul;
    You are so disillusioned!!!! You are an arm chair coach; period who has no insight or knowledge of the game and the culture of the game. Your son is a good player who happens to be at a prep school. He will get good looks. However, most players that had gotten on the radar from the AAU circuit would have acheived the same amount of looks and offers.................Anyway, I can go on and on on this s**t. You have a son thats playing south;

    FHC is a beast

    know paul weeks was banned from the oba is he banned from coaching highschool ball as well?by zonekiller

    OMG Kassius sucks to the max!!!!!!

    tevin is soooooooooooooooooooooo overrated.
    he hops like a frickin bobblehead!!!!

    sorry coach alkins but in the rumour mill around the gta is that vaughan juniors press through the whole game no matter what the score is, and you do nothing to try to prevent a blowout. those are the rumours.

    i personally have not seen the vaughan juniors play so i understand that these are just rumours. i have heard these rumours from numerous sources, adults and students.

    that's why perhaps people are quick to attack you.

    No problem tart11. Thank you for your honest unbiased comments.
    We have showcased at the Vaughan Classic, Henry Carr Tournament, MT Tournament, Hoop It Up, Rimrocker, and the SBA-Hoopdome. So there should be enough exposure for people to ask around. I will tell you when it comes to Home games, we take these games very seriously. It has been a Vaughan tradition for decades. We never pressed in the 4th quarter this season unless we had to. For example the semi-final game vs Downsview at the Rimrocker. If the team we are playing is not competitive the bench plays. But, I will never tell my bench players not to score. It would be unfair to them.
    If that is the opinion out there that we are trying to embarass teams it is never my intention to do so. I had one coach tell me this season before a game, "my guys need to know how to lose, don't let up". This is my 17th year teaching and coaching, the coaching staff at Vaughan know what they are doing. We are always on the same page at the Jr. and Sr. levels. We promote a seamless transition from Jr. to Sr. and beyond high school. We are always trying to improve, so I thank you for your comments/concerns. In trying to build a clean program there will be many challenges and opinions along the way. I guess you have to realize when you are trying to build a program, people will talk about you, whether it is good or bad....hey at least they are talking. We will try our best to listen and learn from each victory and loss as we support our student-athletes at Vaughan, in the classroom and on the courts and more importantly in life.

    ive seen them play. the team is good no doubt. BUT there is no need to have any starters on in the 4th when ur up by 30-40. if you really wanna develop your program then let the bench play as well. whats the diff if you win by 15 or 35??? do u really think the bench feels good??? IMO only.
