I'll save you the Trouble! Clyde Drexler is the best southern La has Produced.

Give me their names. Because I don't no any besides the two kids at lsu who played at madison prep.

Micah is a good coach.

Arcadia is not a inferior team. Two of their players are top 30 players in louisiana who have been playing with each other since grade school. Arcadia has won 25 in a row after starting the season 0-5 because 3 of their starters was in the football playoffs. Arcadia are not the creme puffs of district 1A-7.

I used to think that free was always good. Learned the hard way.

That would be a good start. But even then when you get to the larger classifications it will become a problem,because of resources. The private schools have natural advantages in money. Thats why florida Doesn't allow IMG academy to compete against public schools or count their victories as legitimate.

I think we are in agreement? My primary point was that public schools and private schools should play in different leagues because of these situations. Public schools like Arcadia can't go pickup a kid from Bossier city or Shreveport. And Arcadia has blood lines that most people don't know about which allows it ti overcome this disadvantage. I.E. Bernard King has family in Arcadia, his son Kourtney Roberson, is from arcadia and was an all American. He plays or played for Texas A&M,Robert Parish has family in Arcadia, Paul Millsap has family there, Marcus Fizer,McDonald's all American, is from Arcadia. Bill Russell is from right down the road in monroe. There is a reason why Arcadia girls had 4 starters over 6 ft tall, I just saying. I Don't want to tell to many small town secrets. Lol

Bid Ed, the problem I have with LCA's of the world is the running up of scores on teams with inferior talent. When I played back in the day, we respected our opponents and didn't run up scores to humiliate them. Up 50 and still pressing. Really!
