But from what I hear HJ may have one transfer playing on the team. Just because you get a transfer does not mean you’ve been actively recruiting. But when you get multiple transfers that definitely raises a red flag. 4 or 5 transfers is definitely worth a conversation and since we’ve been having the conversation the people who call themselves defending these recruiters haven’t really claimed they’re not recruiting. In fact they have said things like “this coach has been knowing these players for years” and “they’d rather play for this coach than anyone else” which sounds like recruitment to me lol. Then they try to defend it by saying other coaches have done it also which verry well may be true but if so it’s done on a smaller scale and less obvious. That’s why those situations don’t get discussed much. They’re normal and may be innocent transfers. Even if they aren’t they’re less obvious I see you’re the type of person that likes to move the goal post .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s see,: Over the past 30 years, HJ has won 3 state titles, I believe. 8-10 Regional Tourneys, Numerous playoff games, as well as lots of district titles This year: 1) HJ ties for 1st in their district 2) Teams 1-4 in the same district win round 1 of the playoffs 3) Then lose by 50 points in the 2nd round to Yates Question: 1) How can one deny Yates’s recruiting? 2) Who wants to watch a 50 point blow out in the playoffs? 3) For the Yates kids moving on and playing at the next level, does anyone think this prepares them for that? Those remaining silent are doing a disservice to these young men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I expect that type of response when you have none ... just ramble on about some accolades then try throw another team under the bus in the process!!!!

Why apologize to someone you believe is conducting himself inappropriately.?
