That says it all right there. They aren't schools, per se. Their sole function is selling kids. The states that won't permit these basketball factories to participate in state playdowns have the right idea imo. Let 'em set up leagues composed solely of these super-teams(sponsored by NIKE, etc.) and leave the high school game to the regular high schools. Let 'em use NBA rules if they want to also. They can travel/palm etc. all they want then.
