JeffersonParish schools have long been fricked with Curtis and the Catholic league attracting players.

actually.. kemosabe.. since.. 1980.. JP public schools have 2 state titles 81 and 85... Catholic league state titles....87 and 12....

the big hurt to JP publics.. was a higher than statewide GPA requirement which sent a lot of GOOD coaches elsewhere... and since that rule was put in place...only 2 trips to the semifinals for them..... Ehret in 2000 and Kordell Stewart's sr. year where they were really robbed on a late muffed punt call.......but ehret and west jeff have been a shell of their former selves... and the rule was changed. but the damage was long since done... much like judge parkers to BR.

before that change... ehret and WJ had many semifinal appearances... of course the rise of shaw as a power hurt them with early playoff exits in bi district.

actually two of the worst calls i have seen in HS were both against ehret and both cost them semifinal games....

the east bank schools are hit much harder by catholics and jc...

the west bank has so much talent it really is like a different country...
