This shows your ignorance. I went to public school and involved now with a private school and ASSUMED the same as you. What I found is a private school where you have to play with what you are dealt. Yes, we do not have an area from which are kids have to be from, but just because they come from another school zone doesn't insure they are good athletes. The other thing is there is more pressure to play lesser athletes because the parents have paid money so they think there kid should automatically play. I am not saying that their are not privates that find ways around the recruiting rules, but I KNOW first hand that public schools do the same thing. If you check the other boards you hear about the larger schools recruiting anytime they are good. They are Public schools so it is ok? Private or Public they both do it, at least some do. Lastly, it would not benifit the small schools as much as you think to move all the privates to there own leagu. This is why, if you feel that they all recruit(which you do), if you move them to division two where they can give scholarships, you just lifted all the restrictions they are currently under. Then you better believe they will be recruiting. It has been said by many people, that you should always keep your friends close and your enemy closer. Just a thought!
