Distance and time is not a hurdle, like you tried to make, when kids want to transfer. It's a big difference when you have choices that are much closer to you. What choice did this kid have that was closer to him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like kids have been going to Duncanville from all over the south corridor these past few years. Why go to Desoto/ Cedar Hill when Duncanville is offering you the same thing. The rise of Duncanville, can be traced to the demise of Cedar hill and Desoto Quite the contrary. The success of Cedar Hill and DeSoto temporarily quelled because of Samples coming to Duncanville. There wasn’t necessarily a demise of those programs though. They’re still around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he didn’t want online learning in the fall, and wanted a school with strong academic and athletics, but he didn’t have to move. It was all a choice, not a mandate to find another school could he have stayed at Bakersfield? Of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeSoto is anticipated to have a strong squad in 2023. Don’t know what happened to Red Oak last year but it seemed like they were headed in the right trajectory the year before that with stellar playoff success. And if South Grand Prairie ever gets a high caliber coach, hold on to your seatbelts. Cedar Hill will be fine. They’re not going anywhere. Even with mediocre years, Cedar Hill and DeSoto would finish top 5 in Georgia. Edited March 8, 2022 by WILKINSON Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You used them as an example of a kid doing whatever it takes to go to a certain school even if it's bypassing other schools that offer him the same thing. That's not the case with the Bakersfield kid. He couldn't go to a school in Bakersfield offering him what he wanted. Garces is a small private school in Bakersfield.

Calpreps doesn't do a good job differentiating between classes in Texas due to the fact that there's very little connectivity.
