Public schools can't recruit
bullshite.
Yes, that statement is bullshite.
Bastrop is one of the public schools which got caught recruiting after Katrina, bringing in NOLA-area athletes displaced to Texas to play football for them. They had their state title stripped over it.

Relative to class? I have a hard time believing Sterlington, Homer, Springfield, Oak Grove, Mamou, Rosepine, Ville Platte, Welsh, and Jonesboro Hodge put out recruits at the same level as Evangel and Curtis.

I don't have any actual numbers but I would bet the private school programs produce more D1 level talent if you base it on D1 player per total football players
I would love to take you up on that because it is a fact that (with an error of one or two because it was months ago) that 77 LA athletes were on NFL rosters at the beginning of the season and only 17 were from private schools.

I don't have a problem with a parent seeking a better education for their kids. But Billy Bob Maxwell, a 6'7" 288 pound sophomore offensive tackle from Longview, Texas coming to Louisiana for the merits of the English program at Evangel is fiction.

They aren't being punished
A kid who lives in River Ridge but goes to Jesuit would not be punished by being forced to sit out of athletics?
A family that wants to send their kid to Teurlings to get a Catholic education should have to move to the ghetto of Lafayette so their son can play baseball?
Just because the people of Oakdale are okay with living in a shitty town and sending their kids to a shitty public school doesn't mean that other people don't have more ambition in life.
Why should you take away athletic opportunities for people that want better for their kids?

Tell me one single team here that puts as much effort into their teams as Curtis, Evangel, Calvary, Parkview, etc. Please, let me know which one.

The amount of National Merit scholars isn't either.

The total D1 players from all the remaining 2A schools don't equal the numbers from JC and Evangel added together.

Bam...there it is. This is all about Curtis and Evangel in football. Period. And it will lead to a full split of public and private schools in the end because that is what a larger enough group of public principals want. And as the emperor in Star Wars said, they "will pay the price for their lack of vision."

And I bet the amount of two parent households in private schools are much higher than public, but if you want to start throwing everything else in there I can start discussing that too. Discipline at public schools is atrocious. But I guess discipline doesn't have anything to do with being successful in sports too, huh?

Their minds are too simple to understand this connection.

You want to compare Evangel's education to WM?
Posted on 4/25/13 at 10:38 am to ProjectP2294
You're making my point for me, they aren't forced to sit out, they will have to play against kids from pass Christian, Miss that wanted a better education as well.
I haven't called your town shitty.
I'm offended.

I was merely pointing out one thing and you took it overboard, I don't give a damn about the discipline or the two parent households, I was merely pointing out one thing

Wait, they recruited players after Katrina and what happened to them?

Oak Grove isn't even the best 1A public school.

You seem to be going in two different directions on this, talking about top talent and then talking about average talent.
The best recruits coming out of LA tend to be public school athletes.
Privates like Parkview may produce a decent amount of D1 ballers but they tend to top out around the three-star mark as they are coached up to their potential instead of being freak athletes.

You starting the thread and arguing throughout so angrily makes one think someone cares alittle too much about high school sports. Your school was good champ, but its time to let it go
