and if its different but within the rules....why the frick aint yall doing it too?


Because my school only takes kids from within its own district, doesn’t have kids moving in from other areas to play sports, and doesn’t hold kids back.

Schools like Barbe, WM, Catholic, Curtis, Acadiana, some of the Catholic schools in NOLA, Zachary, etc all do some form of this… no matter how clean you say barbe is, EVERYONE (but you apparently) knows they bend the hell out of the rules. You don’t have the type of success they do year in, year out without doing so


Have they built a very successful program? Absolutely. 1000%

Am I a little jealous? Absolutely



But let’s not act like a perennial power just popped up out of nowhere just by accident… it’s crazy. Y’all are on a completely different playing field than the rest of the state. You guys SHOULD win the title year in, year out… Any type of justification or excuse from you is crazy talk and just you being a huge homer

Almost guaranteed to be not true. Every school has kids from outside their attendance zone.

Great programs attract players. Not sure why this an excuse for other schools lack of success.

Will see how the new rule changes things. It’s only be in effect for one year.

bullshite, every school takes out of zone kids and you don’t have kids moving to the district cause the program is not good. Do you think barbe was built on kids moving in? This team only had 1 move in for sports and that’s the freshman. The rest have been there

Barbe only has one hold back is,almost every kid graduates at 18 from there with a few May birthdays graduating at19 every once in a while. Nothing like west Monroe and if it’s so effective like yall claim then how come yall aren’t doing it so your kid can get scholarships?

Everyone is playing by the same damn rules. Can’t get upset if you decide to handicap yourself

And if we are recruiting so hard then why does Sam Houston have as much talent as barbe, why does St. Louis have multiple kids that could start at barbe, why does Sulphur, why does south beau have a pitcher that would be #1 for barbe? Westlake has a kid that absolutely would have started last two years on barbe and would next year.

I hate this stupid add argument…..it’s essentially all the good teams must be cheating and playing by different rules otherwise we would be just as good kind of thing. It’s dumb

Barbe wasn’t shite when glen arrived, didn’t win his first title until like year 12 or 13. Didn’t even have an outfield fence and has built the facilities to be the best in the state by far. That along with having top team and busting his arse to get kids scholarships attract kids tends to get kids to go there. But don’t get it twisted as I proved earlier 99% of these kids have been in slc since they were small
