I'm at home, streaming game on TV. Not a big fan of paying $20.00 but guess that is how things are these days. 

 

Could be worse. You could have paid $12 for stream that ISN'T WORKING! Can't get the Lutheran/Sheridan game!

And I said I never saw it that way until Foxbat explained it in further detail. Never been involved with a p/p school. I've just always been told they recruit and bring in transfers and that's why they are always as successful as they are, unfair advantages they have, etc..., 

I think you'll find that the most successful programs, public or p/p, usually have excellent grade school programs. Look at Center Grove, CYO, and Jr Saints.

Since Indiana is an open enrollment state, public schools recruit quite a bit. See the original article this thread was based on. He wasn't talking about p/p.

In my opinion yes to the first statement. Truthfully don't know what you mean by the second, when did I say or infer that they belong to the state, not sure what you mean by they either, are we talking about the schools or the students?

By "they" I mean the students. Kids who have never been enrolled in a public school cannot be considered transfers.

When explained like this I can understand and support the non transfer idea. The way I see it though, p/p's don't have a true elementary or middle school most times than not. So when they come from a "feeder school" that they still have options on where to go and they choose a p/p, I see that as them transferring in as freshman. Others may not see it that way but that's what I see it as. Again I understand many especially those more linked to p/p's don't see it that way but just my opinion on the matter. 

So you think those kids who were in parochial schools since preschool are freshman "transfers" to parochial high schools because they had "choices". They don't belong to the state!

Did they go to Lutheran?

Indeed

You're a p/p. Everyone on your roster is a transfer

Not true! I raised 3 athletes who never stepped foot in a public school.
