However, some schools particularly in the metropolitan areas have circumvented the process and come up with this new term called the open enrollment process where any student from any local district can go to any high school they choice. This has created 2 problems. #1.)Increase the need for schools to win. #2.) Students from out of the district can transfer in and dominate playing time. That is play in districts where the tax dollars can come from a completely different group of people that pay the taxes for that area. Hence, the lawsuit. I think we should pay very close attention to this lawsuit. I think it is a legitimate lawsuit. However, some of these high schools have ties to DI colleges which makes this an even bigger deal.

What orifice do you pull this stuff out of? Open enrollment isn't about sports, you moron. Sure, there are some side affects that involve sports, but I'm sure the idea competing academically hasn't occurred to you. Yes, it is a sad commentary that parents think their little Johnny deserves to play more. It can't be that Johnny didn't practice enough during the off season, it's got to be the coach's fault for not recognizing his enormous talent.
