As proud Alumni of Occidental College and its football program we have all been influenced by Coach Widolff; well beyond the measurable statistics of his success -11 SCIAC titles and 178 wins. He has been a coach, a mentor, a father figure and a friend. We believe the recent violations by the program that led to his termination are not proportionate to his 28 year legacy of creating outstanding teammates, citizens, sons, brothers, fathers and leaders…
By signing the petition below we pledge to cease any financial support of the college until the decision is reconsidered or Coach Widolff is honored in a manner commensurate with his immense contribution to Occidental College.
Widolff helped shape my brother into the man he is today. This is a total slap in the face to his legacy.
