Public in general or public at that school. I've seen schools where the booster club is 100% behind the recruiting. Ah, I was referring to COACHES making comments in public supporting illegal recruiting or other rule breaking. It's about the only way that they can get caught.

That's easy for coaches to say. We have the next year and the next and the next. The kids only get four years. I'm not in favor of hard and fast rules because there are always cases where a kid may have a perfectly legitimate reason to transfer. Should he be punished by being made to sit out 25% of their athletic career? If I was a lawyer-and if you make a rule like this you'll probably be talking to lawyers eventually- I'd ask you to prove that the kid wasn't transferring for AP Chemistry. From a legal perspective,the burden of proof would be on the kid to prove he is transferring for AP Chem (or another academic reason). This would be easy to prove given prior grades. If the GPA is 2.7 and they play a sport then probability is high that they are not transferring for advanced academics. I coach and teach in public school. I moved both my daughter and my oldest son from the school they were assigned in middle school for better academics. I also did the same for my daughter once she got to high school. I've had many kids transfer into my classroom and when asked, why they can to this school the answer is academic.
