It would be fun to trash talk some brainwashed homeschooled kid.

Sounds stupid to me

This is plain stupid. If the kids' parents want to homeschool them, they don't need to play on teams for organized high schools. Start a homeschool team. There are several issues with this including not being able to legitimize their scores and grades to be equal to other students.
Also, its not fair to the kids in that school trying to make the team.

Nothing good will come out of this.

They should all play on the same team "The Homies"

How are they going to enforce the academic standards, even as low as they are?
