how are the private schools in Texas expected to compete with all that public $$$ for fancy stadiums?

I have no idea what you are talking about. The Servite student section was removed from last years MD/Servite football game after the 1st half due to repeated profanity-laced chants in the 1st and 2nd quarter. Not a few students, the entire student section. ask Credo he knows what I'm talking about.

maybe they left because in my 30+ years of watching Catholic High School's play football last year was the first time I've ever seen a school's entire student section be removed from a game based on their behavior.

MD dad Do you know if there will have presale tickets sold at the school. I went to website and you can buy them online but I tried twice to buy 2 $10 tickets and somehow the price come up to $42.50?? 2.50 is service fee I'm at a loss where the other 20.00 is coming from. I'm hoping maybe next week...

I'm really in your head huh, jb? I've already explained the problem isn't in how many. It's in stealing other schools' established star players. No comment on the three options that the 71.5% (not named Professor Fate, who also thought transfers were a problem), were recommending? So, what you want...

It didn't take as long as I thought. Here are all 18 teams that are in D-1, and the number of transfers they have on their varsity rosters. Trinity League teams are in red. 24 - Servite 22 - St. John Bosco 21 - JSerra 20 - Corona Centennial 19 - Santa Margarita 17 - Mater Dei 17 - Mission Viejo 17 ...

By then we won't need them, or want them. Even this season, when we needed them, (still wish we hadn't taken them), we only took two seniors , both from Catholic school backgrounds, and three juniors (O Lu, MD and ?). Don't expect to see many more next season...we won't need them. Poachers :lol:

you can see the transfers here: https://cifss.org/approvals/transfers/

My sense is the Trinity + MV + Cen10 + Upland + a couple others would get bumped up, and the other 5-7 D1 schools would combine with the top 11-13 D2 schools and so forth. Mind you, I don't know what the real xfer numbers are for all the schools, but given there's this overriding sense there is an ...

You don't really pay attention, do you?

Better answer here is to move schools into a different playoff bracket that exceed a given # of transfers. After 5, you play in the "Open" Division. Freedom of movement for kids, freedom of choice for schools, no need for policing by CIF. Bick, wouldn't this drive kids to Trinity schools?...

I don't know what the best fix would be, however, there does need to be change. I also think there should be change with the proliferation of so many " Double Hold Backs" . That is just as big a problem as the transfers yet easier to prove. If the kid is still eligible base on birthdate, ...

If you can do the same for your team's pre-game warmups, then it's a deal. What's the early point spread? Just a parent here Credo. I don't even have a kid on the team. I Just like HS football. But, I don't appreciate having to explain to my young children what the profanity-laced chants are from a...

Good, maybe you can police the student section and keep them from yelling profanity-laced chants. Credo.

I saw it. I'm glad JQP deleted it.

Mater Dei beat down Bishop Gorman so thoroughly that they are now rated two slots below Servite by MaxPreps. :shock: The rankings are so subjective, more so in HS than in College. Gorman dropped it's 2nd game to an unranked team. I think they have a lot of talent at Gorman, but, it's a HUGE drop of...
