Holy shite. Are they allowed to recruit/hand out scholarships? That tuition is insane.

I still don't understand how it is allowed to operate for amateurs when it is linked to an agency

Yes, which is why they play a national schedule and are not eligible to win Florida state titles.

Thanks for bringing this up. There are rumors of an LSU recruit going there next year.

To clear those rumors up, IMG doesn't have him on their board.

Yes, but hey cannot play for any state championship in FL. It's basically owned by sports agents

The tuition is for in-state. Out of state is different. Savion smith while being recruited by LSU talked about it. Also, it’s a tennis and golf academy. You as an adult can go stay in a villa and get coached for a week.

4 and 5 star dudes aren’t paying a penny to go to IMG. But jimmy the 5’6 2ND baseman is paying the full way so that he can go to Flagler College and play ball

They make a lot of money fleecing Asians, Russians, and Indians who have more money than sense.

But it's an investment, get a kid into the US goes to college, or turns pro, then gets a green card, and all the family will eventually end up in the US.
