A high school football coach in Wisconsin was fired after it was revealed that he falsified attendance records and facilitated unauthorized transportation for students.
According to On3, the Green Bay school board voted 5-2 to terminate East High School's Komoniko Sila.
“On more than 140 occasions, from September 5, 2025 through October 15, 2025, Niko Sila knowingly deleted accurate and official student absence records from the District’s student record systems, Infinite Campus," the board wrote in a press release. "These actions resulted in false student attendance records that were relied upon for athletic participation eligibility, and School and District reporting requirements for the purpose of state report cards and a federal grant that East currently receives; and interfered with system absence notification to parents, and prevented attendance interventions to be triggered and implemented.”

Sila's actions resulted in at least three ineligible players participating in three Wisconsin high school football games.
According to the board's report, Sila also repeatedly transported students using his private vehicle without undergoing the mandatory vehicle registration and driver’s license background check.
Sila appealed the board's decision at a public meeting attended by his players and some community members, but the board needed just 45 minutes to deliberate on their decision.
On3 reported that while Sila isn’t a Wisconsin high school football coach anymore, he will be establishing a youth mentoring program and plans to run for a place in the school board.
