How many do you have at each size?

Hey.....we do it up right!

It's pretty common in the 4 corners of the state to have county rivalries....even if the games aren't competitive.

This ^^^

It just means he is too attached to his narrative.

I appreciate the thoughtful response. I agree that the proximity to urban areas is a big factor....but again, more so for the p/p because in my view this is really a 1A to 3A problem. With regard to publics, the schools just get bigger in the urban areas and once you get over 1000 kids or so the issue with student population type goes away just due to sheer economies of scale.

Just for historical reference in the future:

This entire statement is fair except for the roster count part. Rosters follow the general student population to a large extent. Said another way, those 23 freshman are still going to have a significantly different makeup than 23 at Southridge. It's nobody's fault, just the nature of the business to to speak. The only guy as thick as this dude on here was Cody.

Again...I haven't argued about where they get their kids or really even transfers. The nature of paying for a service results in a greater percentage of like minded quality student athletes period end of story. What Chatard does is phenomenal...but wouldn't be quite as phenomenal if they had a bunch of special needs kids or 30%of their enrollment only there because the law says they have to be, effectively pushing them into 4A or 5A. Many publics have all the things some of you guys like to point out make a program successful. The difference is when you have such a higher percentage of quality student athletes it magnifies the success of the privates schools who also have those things and do them right. And with regard to Center Grove....the issue basically takes care of itself due to economies of scale at probably 4A and above but definitely 5A. At that point even with the dead weight they can muster enough dudes to load the football team. This is mostly a 1-3A problem. Are you saying that ever state in the US is wrong....that literally almost every HS association in the county is unfairly looking for solutions for a problem that doesn't exist. That he only cause to the issue is excellent youth, feeder, admin, Coaching etc. some schools have? If you are....that is really a simple point of view.

We aren't even talking transfers...sometimes I wonder if you even read these posts.

You should have said, "solid" student. LOL

I should...and admittedly have done very little research on the topic.
