, I am the same Silva, and since you’ve brought it up, let’s clear up the facts. I left Fresno a full year before the program was dropped due to the university’s financial mismanagement. No violations or sanctions were ever found against me, that’s part of the public record for anyone who takes the time to research instead of speculate.

Since then, I’ve had opportunities to coach at multiple Division I programs, but I chose a different path: building Iridium camps and the SBTC training center to help young athletes achieve their goals and reach D1 schools themselves. That’s where my focus is now, on the kids and their future.

As for anonymous comments, I’ll always be happy to shake hands and have a conversation face to face when I visit Toppenish. Until then, I’ll keep doing what I’ve always done, building athletes up, not tearing people down.
