Makes sense right?.. It just so happens they go out after excellant football players from very larg areas under no scrutiny ... Its simple math ...Its so plain and simple .
For the 8 millionth time, recruiting is just fine, so long as it's done for teh entire educational experience. Because publics restrict themselves to territorial districts doesn't mean privates have to do so. Open enrollment schools, which are the majority of publics, don't even have that restriction. And they're FREE! EVERYBODY there gets a full ride. How are privates even competing? It so happens that to compete, Catholic schools have to be better at everything. Otherwise people, even devoted Catholics, would choose the public schools. Do you believe that a school can make itself better in the classroom, or on the field or court? Why is it so hard to believe that some Catholic schools, particularly in an area where there are great public schools, would make itself better at everything in order to draw students? I don't know about other Catholic schools, but I do know about Alter. That's what Alter is constantly striving to do. Alter has earned 21 state championships in 11 different sports, including boys' volleyball last year. So are they going around recruiting volleyball players? Of course not. They just do everything they can to be as good as they can be with the kids who show up. You can believe what you want, but that is the truth.
I see Skank has again shown his true colors. He doesn't hate Catholics, just Catholic priests. Well, hate is hate. It eats you alive, Skank. I'll be praying for you.
