the main thing is that these kids are getting a ton of their college hours taken care of while still in high school. Graduating with an associates if i'm not mistaken. It's not a waste of time or money when it's free and you have it by the time you're 18. it gives those kids a lot of options regardless of which direction they choose to go.
I prefer grass, but I understand why turf works better for most schools. I was a kicker for the football team, but soccer was where I excelled. I'm so glad I didn't have to play 90% of my soccer games on turf like these kids today. In football it makes the game quicker and keeps the field cleaner, but in soccer it speeds things up unnaturally and the bounces are horrible.
Another discussion for another time, but college for most kids (not all, but a great many) is a waste of time, money & resources... That being said, trade schools, vocational schools & technical schools are of greater value. Just my opinion. That being said, I don't think the non-football school in Beaumont is a bad thing at all.
