Recruiting "players", but didn't you already know that?

It's an officiating site. I see the word recruiting and I assume officials. Why would I think it's about players?

If you would have put players in the title I wouldn't have read it. Good bait and switch there.

If you read it you would know it (but we both already knew that, didn't we?).

Bait and switch wasn't intended, but maybe I should have gone into marketing instead of education? Maybe I've got some natural talent for marketing?



Can't change the title in a thread starter, but I tried.

The days of taking a walk, or a short bus ride, to one's local public high school school and playing sports are long over.

Students (players) now have choices.

Interscholastic sports have to adjust to a new normal.

"We've got a new auditorium, a new computer lab, now offer Mandarin as a world language, 95% of our graduates get into their first choice college or university, and we have a great basketball program, won the state championship last year, and two of our players got full Division I scholarships."

Illegal recruiting?

As an official, I do not involve myself in matters such as this. Nor do I care about whether or not a player is eligible. I am there to enforce the rules as outlined in the NFHS rule book and supplemented by the case book, with a couple minor modifications as outlined by the state AA.

The debate you are trying to instigate here belongs on your local high school sports forum. Not this forum.

I already know what's going on, not only in my local area, but also in my state.

Two long time Forum members, one from Northern Virginia, and one from Connecticut, started a two state discussion.

I wanted to see if there were similar issues in any other states.

This is an officiating website and you purposely left out the word "players" in your title to suck others into reading your post, knowing most everybody here would have bypassed it otherwise.
