CANTON — The ownership of the Canton Cougars has changed hands.

Tim Clark took over majority control of the Ultimate Indoor Football League team June 1. Andrew Haines, one of the UIFL’s co-founders, will retain a small stake in the team.

Clark formerly owned the UIFL’s Johnstown Generals and also worked for the Cleveland Fusion, a women’s pro team. He is a retired Cleveland policeman.

The Cougars finished 1-12 in their inaugural season this year. Last month the team hired former Louisville High School coach Paul Farrah as director of football operations.

Canton- One day after it was announced that Tim Clark would be the new owner of the Ultimate Indoor Football League's Canton Cougars. The retired Cleveland Policeman and former owner of the league's Johnstown Generals wasted no time in making personnel changes. It was announced today, Director of Football Operations Paul Farrah will now also serve as the Head Coach and Canton South Head Football Coach Mo Daniska has been hired as the new Defensive Coordinator for the upcoming 2012 Cougars season. Louisville High School Defensive Coordinator Troy Davis will serve as the Director of Community Relations, focusing on developing youth football camps and clinics. Former Head Coach Rashaun Hall who went 1-13 with the Cougars has been retained as an assistant coach and will also serve as Director of Player Personnel.

Farrah, the former Louisville High School Head Coach and Stark County coach of the decade, has won seven league titles, and had four 10-0 regular seasons. In 16 years as a head coach, Farrah's record is 130-52.

Farrah's too good a coach to not be coaching at the high school level like he did at Louisville (pronounced Lewis-ville, not like the one in Kentucky)...but 'extra-curricular' activities will kill ya.
