re: Private HS's recruiting and giving scholarships competing with public schools

Well, I would counter that with why not? I've always been told that if you play against top level talent that it makes you better. It's the reason that MAC schools and Conference USA schools agree to play Auburn and Bama and LSU and Ohio State and Michigan/State every year.

apples to oranges

in your example you have schools that are allowed to use the same recruiting practices across the board, they are only limited by their bank roll

in high school athletics there are regulations that restrict public schools from using the same recruiting practices as the private schools regardless of bank roll.

Its not the same by a long shot.
