  2. Even in a lost I look forward to the black hole defense holding their own a lot better then that. if we lose a 31-28 type game against those boys I wouldn’t be mad at all. I just want my boys to show they can compete. and if we see them again in the playoffs who knows.

    3rd times a charm?

    Now, see, Jambun, we're not that far apart on this topic after all. Here's the way I look at it, if Johnny lives in the northeast part of town, but yet he and his family are aware of the storied tradition of Southwest High School, and they believe Johnny's talents and skill set would be a good fit at SHS (and are willing to drive Johnny to and from SHS every day), I don't really have a problem with Johnny making the decision to attend SHS. Personally, I'd prefer that decision get made before Johnny ever steps foot onto the Northeast High School campus (and certainly before Johnny ever puts on a NHS jersey), but I recognize there may be circumstances in which a transfer might be appropriate (especially if Johnny is a QB or a kicker). What I don't want to see is the coach from SHS calling up Johnny and his parents trying to convince them that SHS would be the better place for Johnny to showcase his talents. I don't want the SHS coach making that call when Johnny's in the 8th grade and I certainly don't want to see that call being made once Johnny starts attending NHS. In short, if a kid and/or his family decide on their own that they want to explore/pursue other options, I'm OK with that. I just don't think we want to open up Pandora's Box by allowing schools/coaches to engage in a targeted campaign to try and convince particular kids and their families that their school is the better option.
