Is this a common sense question or should we be getting an "EXPERT" in here to tell us the answer?

Responding to Nolebull's comment with an SAT-like question for everyone on this board: Here's the scenario (and I'm making it as blatantly obvious as I can):  Assistant coach for Local High School ("LHS") identifies a rising junior skill position player from another high school that the LHS coach believes could be a real difference-maker for his team.  The LHS coach pulls the kid aside after a 7-on-7 tournament and starts extolling the virtues of LHS and telling the kid what a great fit the kid would be.  He then meets up with the kid's parents and offers them housing right down the street from LHS.  He then tells them he can make arrangements for the kid's mom to get a new "job" at the car dealership owned by former LHS quarterback and long-time LHS booster, Rooster Calhoun, who took LHS to the state championship game back in 1974.   In short, the coach commits what everyone and their brother could only describe as 'recruiting,' and extends an offer of what everyone and their sister could only conclude would be 'impermissible benefits.'  And the kid and his family members willingly participate in the recruitment process and, ultimately, gladly accept the benefits.  Who should be punished: A.  The assistant coach. B.  The head coach (and, yes, I was intentionally vague on whether the head coach participated in or had knowledge of the actions). C.  The school. D.  The kid. E.  All of the above.  Unlike the SAT, you are not limited to one answer.   Put down the letter for each one (unless you think all should be punished, in which event you can just put down "E").   

Thank You, he is the reason we lost our top receiver 3 years ago to WPHS, not an easy drive from Kissimmee.  He ended up being their top WR, kick returner and top TD maker that year.   FHSAA came down on them hard so he headed to Leesburg.  Acting like this stuff isn't really happening, justifying why it happens, leaving poor programs, headed to better programs or other lame excuses are weak.  Clear rule breaking should have consequences for ALL involved. 

The dudes name is Steven Moffett. Been around for a while (winter park, leesburg, TFA). Runs the 7v7 team 24K. Recruits kids from there and though various trainers and street agents around CFLA.

The head coach remains front and center in that program 24/7. Only for 2-3 hours on Fridays will he not be on the sideline. The other aspect of this not mentioned: all of the MAJOR in and out-of-state games they will play. That takes a lot of money. Their schedule figures to be more impressive than any other team's schedule even with 15 games and 5 playoff games.  Once again, there is no *compelling* case to be made for K-12 schools (or possibly even universities) to be caught up in big-time, professional sports. All of the arguments around the benefits of extracurricular activities, being a part of a team, etc, can all be experienced through things that dont involve the mess schools are in now. The ONLY reason big-time, for profit sports won't be separated from schools is the folks in charge, psychologically, can not stomach seeing their schools' programs become club sports teams. And that's not really compelling...
