Baylor vs Bradley

Hasn't Bradley had plenty of transfers or wrestlers who'd been expected to attend Cleveland or Walker Valley out of middle school, based on their residence?

 

Cleveland and Bradley Central/Walker Valley are separate school systems. I believe it still this way, if you live in the city limits of Cleveland you can go to Cleveland or Bradley/WV (I believe anyone in the city limits is zoned for Bradley for HS but I do not know for sure). If you live out of the city limits you can pay a fee and attend Cleveland.

I kind of doubt that it is called a transfer if you were not in another high school to start with. I can tell you that I went to the Cleveland city schools until 9th grade when I went to Bradley. It was considered a choice, not a transfer.

Many would argue that the open-zone system is similar to the perceived "advantages" of private schools. They are both used as obvious recruiting mechanisms.

That's why I said "or", it doesn't seem much different than a promising public school eighth grader instead going to Baylor for his 9th grade year. Class AAA schools ought to have sufficient school population to overcome such "disadvantages", especially in swap-and-shop areas like Cleveland and Murfreesboro.

Absolutely- everybody knows that Baylor has a tradition of running from local competition. They even travel to Minnesota just to make sure they don't have to wrestle Bradley.

 

 

it was kind of a joke to tweak the person who asked such a question. please do not take the bait, it is below you.

    • Who’s going to lead the pirates offense this year?
    • Pickett is good, may have a Mr. Football like season if he’s used correctly. One of the best teams Marion has fielded in a while. I think they go 12-1 and loose to ER.  ER has better players at almost every position. If they play discipline this year, they win soundly. If they don’t though…Marion could sneak away with it.
    • I’m betting the house on the Indians. Pickett and Co will be the only team to challenge the Indians in the East. Huntingdon can in the West. I think Brooks goes 15-0 and has the first perfect season and state championship in ER history.
    • Sounds like a great opportunity has opened up for the football team.  With the head coach of the diamond rebels making it official and quitting this week, there should be some room for the gridiron guys to benefit. I assume the administration won’t continue paying six figures to two former coach that quit to continue teaching drivers Ed. Thats pretty good money that could be redirected toward the football program. Also, with the more recent policies of pushing kids to only play one sport, abolishing the baseball program altogether would help on Friday nights in the fall. There is some decent speed on that baseball team that should’ve been playing on Fridays IMO. I’m not sure if anybody would really miss that baseball program anyway with it being across town from the school. The liability of letting players actually use the facilities could also be mitigated with closing the program. That liability seems to be a really big issue for 825. Anyway, it seems like a great opportunity is available.
    • Yeah, I read about their spring blue/gray scrimmage after I typed that.   Sounds like a real mess over there.  I just hate that for 'em.  Haw
