Bottom line is this, If private schools were not allowed to compete in the playoffs there would be a big drop in enrollment at most of the successful private schools.
Bottom line is the Trinty and St.X supporters are upset that both schools will not be in the finals each year. Don't count on any sympathy from the "real" world when it comes to this subject.
No proof needed. Everyone in the state know how things go at St. X and Trinity. This is just a small step toward the right thing to do by the KHSAA. I sense some sour grapes because you will have to compete for a trip to the finals each year instead of your cruise control trip each season.
Surely the athletes that see the field at X and T are not "out of pocket" any money. Lets be serious, there are not many people on this site that can be suckered into beleiving X and T are on the same playing field as public schools of the same size.
How many public schools do you know of that can offer financial assistance/tuition to out of district student athletes?
How many student athletes do St. X/Trinity have that transfered in from other school districts?
Bottom line is that public schools do not compete on a LEVEL playing field with private schools!!!
A very big victory for public schools in Kentucky. Hard to compete with private school money. The only way it will ever be truly correct is when private schools have their own playoffs. Not trying to get the public/private debate started again just stating the truth.
Why else would you leave a head coaching job to be an assistant? To take over as head coach to the team u went to, I would think. With that being said, I hate to see Rains leave but Graham will be a great replacement at LCA.
