But arent there small public schools as well in the state that basically are the same school from k-12? Wouldnt they have that same advantage?


For example Winnfield, the school that complained the most, actually has this same advantage. There is only 1 school feeding into their high school, so they can easily run "their system" from middle school on

Yes but sometimes middle school coaches don't wanna do that. The HS head coach has no say who the middle school coach is. I promise you pretty much every Private school HC that has a jr high connected to it has a say in who the middle school coach is. I"ve coached at private schools. I know how it works.

Ok but that isn’t an advantage An advantage would be if the public’s didn’t have the same opportunity

You're missing the whole point. They certainly have an advantage as private school head coaches have way more say over who coaches the 7th and 8th graders that come to them. I'm saying it's an advantage they have only because of the ignorance that is leadership in most public schools. I'm not making an excuse for public schools. I'm doing the opposite.

Maybe if all the kids come from one feeder school

In most parishes there are way more catholic elementary schools than high schools

The Catholic privates are just like the Public schools in that you have kids coming from multiple different schools and multiple different coaches and "systems"


I do not think there is a Catholic school in the Archdiocese of New Orleans that plays tackle football. Unless Christian Brothers plays football? But this ideas of the Catholic grammar schools feeding the Catholic high schools FOR FOOTBALL is absurd. The Catholic schools play flag football and have, almost exclusively since I was a lad in the '70s.

A few, just recently say the last ten years, have picked up baseball and not cabbage ball as well as lacrosse.

The independents like St.M. and Newman play football at the middle school level.

But a lot of if not every single HS in the archdiocese starts in the 8th grade, not the 9th.

Also which is different many kids the day they are born know which hs in the archdiocese they will be attending from that moment, so there is a little bit less of "recruiting that goes on than people make it out to be"

Edit: To make it 8th not 7th

They do not start football.
All schools in the Archdiocese of New Orleans go up to seventh grade, eighth grade is now at the high schools, exclusively. This happened about five or six years ago, most grammar schools had already dropped eighth grade due to declining enrollment.

It had little to do with sports, parents and kids were deciding to go to the high schools for decades. Interesting one son stayed through 8th grade in 2010, a couple years later my younger left for 7th, but didn't play anything other than lacrosse from 9-11th.

that's how many kids they had... Shame on the LHSAA for letting results of football games override fairness and making every school play by the same rules

But doesn't Winnfield get to take kids from all over their parish because they're the only school in their parish with football?

They literally get to recruit for football purposes.

That would not be "recruiting" Project, know you are good people and know your stuff but they are not recruiting against anyone in their parish in the sense we are talking about.

Tell me how that's different than a school being the only Catholic High School in a parish and parents choosing to send their kids there but since they're not a public school people call it "recruiting"
