Metro Nashville recruiting

I visit many coaches in metro who have voiced their concern about the illegal recruiting of not only middle school students out of zone ,but even the recruiting of players already in their high school. There is no pressure from principals to win at all costs, so why does a coach recruiting feel the need to do this. Has high school football become like AAU basketball coaches and just go get the best players and  let them play. Just coach the kids that come to you and go play.

Run the answer is in your question. I wrote about it in a different post a couple weeks ago. Run the better question is why is it allowed. How can metro coaches walk into a Rutherford county school to talk to kids about playing.

Or Wilson County. LOL Work.

 

You should have seen the high school coaches lined up watching the middle school basketball tournament last night. Vultures.

Maybe they are all looking to coach in college where recruiting is the norm. Until there is punishment it will continue. Nothing gets attention like being docked pay.

Do you guys see it from privates, publics, or both? It was a big factor when I was in high school (mid 80s) but I'd hoped it had gotten better rather than worse... I've noticed sometimes when a coach changes school a good athlete just happens to change at the same time. My guess is it's very hard to prove and that's why you don't see punishment doled out... But you'd hope the administration would police itself properly.

    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
