DetNews feature on Thomas Wilcher

Submitted by StateStreetApostle on

Article on the Cass Tech HC (Gregg Krupa) which is as much a rumination/comparative study of the Detroit of his youth and that of today as it is an interview.

Loved this quote (so true; too true), talking about players that get into trouble:

...right now, society really doesn’t want them to correct themselves. Society is just saying this is who you are. This is the behavior you’re going to have.

“And that’s not true.

(edit: just to make clear, neither Wilcher ((nor I)) am condoning kids screwing up; he's condemning them being permanently labeled screw-ups. that's not to say that conversion always happens. i mean, look at the end of last year's State game for proof.)

Looks like he's set up three accounts—romeokassh, KashishK, and fastvashikaran—with virtually no posts other than to spam some product or "service."

I am a bit biased, but I LOVE Wilcher!

He really cares about his kids. I was a part of his very first track team at Cass back in the early 90's (he wasn't coaching football right away) and he pushed us so we could get opportunities at the next level. He even set it up with Lloyd Carr and the track team (we hated track) so my twin and I could walk -on since we already had academic scholarships via Evans Scholars.

He really loves his kids and his UM!
