re: John Curtis vs. St. Augustine today at Gormley

I've coached at private schools. Good athletes applications "jump", "average" applications. I guess each school is different though.
Your kids probably got discounted tuition because your wife is an employee.
That's what I said, my kids had discounted tuition because my wife was on staff. It wasn't financial assistance and we didn't have to fill out an application. It's given to all staff members.
Athlete applications may take priority. But I don't know of one student that went to any of the four mentioned schools for free.

which one are they covering?
Not sure. I don't have a hand in selecting. But this talk of these private schools handing out scholarships to good athletes is false. There may be some that get assistance but the vast majority are paying full tuition unless a parent works or volunteers at said school.

Do all applicants get this "financial assistance" or just good athletes?
I guess it depends on their financial situation. I'm not sure on how the application process works but there is one. My wife worked at LCA for a few years. Our kids had discounted tuition.

Every year people claim ND doesn’t recruit and every year they are wrong. ND doesn’t “recruit” to the level of LCA but they do recruit to a certain extent.
None of these schools give out athletic scholarships. Not Notre Dame, LCA, STM, Teurlings. They all have financial assistance that has to go through an application process. Tuition assistance is based upon financial need.
I would like to know if anyone here had a kid get an athletic scholarship to any one of the four schools I mentioned above. Not, "I heard so and so". Actual proof.

I picked the NY Giants in the 1985 season. They ended up winning the Super Bowl next year and I've been a fan of them since. I didn't like the Saints because I had a crazy uncle that I didn't get along with that lived and breathed New Orleans football. He would legit throw temper tantrums when they would lose a preseason game. I do root for them at times now.

University of Phoenix, and other diploma mills go straight into the trash. You have a better chance of being hired if you leave those off.

I don't think they lose a game in the regular season.

Check out Theo Von's first podcast with Dustin on it. They were talking about where they were from and Theo told him he grew up in Covington. Dustin said ""Oh, is that closer to Mississippi or Alabama?" Lol

My family went stay at the school my grandparents were janitors at. The next day was my 13th birthday. We didn't have any damage but the next morning when we left, my dad was listening to the radio on the drive back home. No one told me Happy Birthday. The DJ said "It's August 25th..." and my parents looked at each other and apologized profusely.

I know. The next child was born a year later and I only met her twice. My mom said that her sister wanted to give her to my parents but my mom was pregnant with me and already had two kids. My great uncle raised her.

I had an older female cousin that was raised by our grandparents. As a kid, I never understood why she called our grandparents "mom and dad". I would ask my mom and she would just tell me that she's my cousin and that my grandparents were her parents and to stop being nosey. I would fire back "wouldn't that make her my aunt?" And I would get a pair of eyes.
When I got older, she told me that my aunt had a baby at 15 and basically didn't want it, so my grandparents raised her. Then I find out that it happened two more times but they were raised by other family members out of state.

Then it should be NO problem for any team making it to the CFP to beat them in the first round.
My nephew is 24 and brings in more than I do. That's all I got.
Yep. One of our vehicles wouldn't start this past weekend and I asked her to pop the hood. She had no clue how to do that.

Think about your first cousins for a second. Would you want your kid to date one of their kids?

They would be 3rd cousins.

3rd cousins share 0.8% DNA. I still wouldn't sleep with them. Think about this...that would be your grandparents 1st cousins grandchild.
You would be surprised to know that there quite a few people married to their 5th/6th/7th, etc cousins and don't even know it. Especially if you come from a big family.
