I love the way the article states "his family will be joining him."  Used to be good ol' dad was considered the focus of the family.:D  

The high school he has attended is on the north shore of Hawaii, right near the beach, and a few miles from one of the most famous surfing spots in the world.  Can you imagine leaving that? :wacko:  Not like he isn't getting noticed there..already has a number of big school offers as an underclassman.  I've been there and it is a close-knit community. 

DC will be a huge cultural change.  And as many of you may know, DC is a VERY expensive place to live...basic apartments $1500+/month and homes in the 7 figures.  I wonder how they will manage.:rolleyes: On a positive note, there's an awesome qb slot open in Hawaii if someone wants to move.:P

Hawaii is pretty expensive, too! But I agree with the cultural change comment. Perhaps his dad can get a job as a lobbyist!

You are right about Hawaii being expensive.  There are lot of folks living in Hawaii and southern California in very simple homes who have been there for a long time and either own their homes or are paying low mortgages because they bought so long ago.  Unless those people cash in when they move, they could end up paying a lot more for housing per month in DC than they do now.   Have a friend from San Diego in that situation now.

      I seriously can't remember how many times I had to do that very thing. Like Nolebull said in another discussion, the kids know kids from other schools and where the "hot hand" is. I never entertained discussions with kids or parents of kids from other schools. I know we lost some good ones because of it but I am ok with that.

      In a single word, "no." In a lot more words, see the following: (From 2023-24 FHSAA Handbook) 36.2 GENERAL DEFINITIONS 36.2.1 Athletic Recruiting. “Athletic recruiting” is any effort by a school employee, athletic department staff member or representative of a school’s athletic interests to pressure, urge or entice a student to attend that school for the purpose of participating in interscholastic athletics.   and this . . . 36.2.2 Improper Contact. “Improper contact” is contact, either directly or indirectly, whether in person or through written or electronic communication, by a school employee, athletic department staff member, representative of the school’s athletic interests or third parties, such as an independent person, business or organization, with a student or any member of the student’s family, in an effort to pressure, urge or entice the student to attend a different school for the purpose of participating in interscholastic athletics.  See Policy 37.    In fact, if the kid contacts the coach at another school, the coach is not supposed to communicate with the kid other than to refer the kid to the person at the school responsible for admissions.    Best I can tell, there is no exception for being able to reach out to a kid who plays a sport that is not offered by the school that the kid currently attends.  Perhaps there should be . . . but then you'd really be opening Pandora's Box.

      So you are not allowed to talk to a kid who is not an active football player currently attending a school that doesn’t have a football team?

      1.  Ask around and get the kid's phone number. 2.  Call the kid.  3.  If that doesn't work, DM the kid.  4.  Once communications are established, try to convince the kid to come to your school.  There may be other ways, but I think this would be the easiest way to recruit a kid .
