Looks like they pulled a kid from Allen, TX too. LINK
That's not going to sit well with Texas HS football people.

They did play Southern Lab this year...
They'll find themselves with more of those type of opponents if they continue to blow out traditional powers throughout the season.

They lost to one of the elite Florida teams and had a few other close games...

I still have not been convinced by anyone that what IMG doing is inherently "bad".
The argument of being pulled out of high school your senior year is overrun with assumptions. What if the kid doesn't like his high school? Or his coach? Or his classmates? What if winning state or district isn't what motivates him, rather getting to the NFL?
Those are just a few assumptions from folks making the argument for the current high school.
The biggest argument against IMG is that it is funded by / heavily associated with a sports agency. This is the biggest question mark I have come across to date.

Oak Hill was owned by a sports agent firm?

Did all their dudes sign with the same shoe company?

Probably, along with over 50% of the league

Got a call from Steve Walsh today he informed me that 2017 LSU commit was not accepted into IMG due to failing grades! According to Coach Walsh this kid has a lot of work to do in the classroom and football should be secondary to getting eligible for senior year and getting grades to qualify for college. Hope this is a wake up call for a kid that has a lot of talent and a potential bright future.
