Attend the best, highest-ranked, football high school in your area to see how talented you really are. If that doesn't work out you can always xfer back to your local high school and get playing time there. @codbeardsson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play multiple sports and run track to develop foot speed. Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry GardenStateballer.. You don't have to attend the local recruited up Private School All-Star team to prove you are a great football player. Today you do to win a MNC!!

Every private school in America must recruit to keep their doors open and lights on. Much different than bohemoth public schools with open enrollment policies!

Wrong they have to recruit to be truly elite regardless if on National or state level. schools like MD didn’t need recruited up all star team to keep the doors open. Just being a good honest over achieving HS team wasn’t good enough. Instead they doubled down on recruiting and schemes to help athletes from miles away to afford tuition and travel expenses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The schools would close if they didn't recruit every student that attends the school. You don't get it. Publics live off the "nipple" of their respective state's government. Privates need to raise every penny for every facet to survive. Tuition payments are their lifeline! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree with some of that. My 2 younger kids go to a Christian K-8 and everything costs! They are constantly fundraising and having car washes, garage sales, bake sales etc. But the issue I have always had in regards to private schools and athletics is how can they play in the same classification of a public school and have an unlimited boundary to attract kids from near and far, and the public has to only play with their zoned neighborhood kids or they get the book thrown at them? That’s asinine. That’s why open enrollment was created.

Every state should utilize Non-Public classifications that bundle all the Privates together. And those Publics that want to schedule them should be free to do so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To give kids an opportunity in academics and athletics to flourish regardless of where your parents address is located I will assure you that kids are not traveling from 30 plus miles to go to open enrollment schools with shuttle service. Fact: if open enrollment worked like GSB believes there would be multiple public schools in places like FL, TX, GA, that could seriously compete with the super recruited privates! If private schools need all this tuition money then why do they give Football scholarships? No Boundaries Scholarship money for tuition Host Families Shuttle service lower standards for admission They should be really good when you do it like MD, SJB, BG and few others. MD was already thriving private school playing good brand of football before they really decided to double down on getting players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet elite football players are getting scholarships from many of the elite private football programs! No Boundaries Many players handpicked. Scholarships Shuttle service Host families academic requirements lowered in many cases. So much more kid wants to transfer in Texas public school open enrollment or not - The previous coach has to sign off on the transfer as not being for athletic reasons. It's not as easy as many of you believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt they are afraid to play MC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
