Apparently the word out is that Salt was told at the end of the season to go figure out what Rummel was doing and copy it and start peeling off Bro. Martin's Gentilly and 7th ward pipeline.

We can't count on St Bernard anymore. And all the West Bank kids that used to go are either in Hahnville or across the lake in Madisonville and Covington

More likely that in the next few years they’ll be back at Shaw (our best friends btw) or at Karr

They could have hired Manale from DLS if they were serious about competing. Salt ain’t it

But now Manale is at Jesuit and will create another sustainable power like Rummel. Catholic league is on notice

Holy Cross is a lower tier NOLA catholic school. They only win state in sports in which they are in the lower classification. Will never seriously compete in football. Salt is a shite coach who is way way way way out of his league in the catholic league. He got lucky when he won state title.

They already tried to make their big run eating into Brother Martins enrollment when they moved to Gentilly and Brother Martin simply stepped up their game and crushed Holy Cross. Now Holy Cross is back where they were pre Katrina and pretty much considered a joke again. Jesuit and Brother Martin will get the majority of the kids they want. Everyone else will fight over the rest.

what Rummel was doing


I'm not exactly sure if that's the program I would want to emulate right now. They are struggling in many ways.

They have been trying this for over a decade. The reality is those kids don't want what HC is selling.

Yup. They have priced themselves out of the vast majority of the market, along with the fact that if kids are going to travel to the new campus, they might as well travel to Jesuit or Bro Mart. The appeal of HC to St. Bernard was how close it was.

Sounds like HC hired an outside consultant who has no idea what is the actual situation on the ground.
