I would aboslutely have the same energy if Jay pushes any starter this weekend over 90 pitches, let alone 116. And I'll be off the chains if he sends a starter back out there in hte late innings nearing 100 pitches with a nine run lead the tenth weekend of the season (unless he's got a no-hetter going), let alone the first weekend. But you know damn well that would never happen.

:cheers: :cheers:

maybe not with Jay but it will happen across CBB

the private school is in that new zone

---

most people on here have no clue that a private school actually has an attendance zone

heavy arse farmers walks

turns with bands

weighted hangs

sledge hammer working every direction

plus all the things you said

the bennet school, maybe I could but that would require me to move to houston.

but again this has nothing to do with my kids. i just think the rules are dumb AF. its more government nanny state BS where they are deciding what is right for a kid and what isnt.

I am very very very very pro school choice. so I am going to always fight against shite like this and why i push back when people on here say private schools are cheating when they waive tutiuon

they are just leveling the playing field

this really has nothing to do with me personally, its about free market concepts for me. I just believe one of the ways to drive progress and improve schools is 100% school choice, money goes where the kid goes, no strings attached and make the schools compete for students, including private schools.

im a huge free market concept guy and believe the way we have done things the last 30 years is failed, try something different. one of the hold ups to that is sports.

i also get annoyed AF with people that say...yea well that kid should be at such and such high school because they lived there when they were young.....like its a sin to move to a better school district.

I mean, who can't agree with this one??

i mean i agree in principle....but i have seen some fricked up rulings on CS.

and some fricked up women behind it too

but in principle...kind of hard to disagree

but if you agree to abortion than you shouldnt because the father should be able to give up his rights too without having to pay

Very bad idea. Kids can already choose what school they go to as long as the school accepts them, so this is not an academic issue. This is purely for sports. It's a typical American argument to point out the 1% who might benefit realistically from this type of arrangement, and ignore the 99% which are abusing the system for sports reasons.

---

this isnt true. if you live out of zone, even if 100 feet and do not go to the feeder school for middle...not eligible to play varsity as a freshman

Look at colllege sports which have gotten worse each year since Covid. That is what we will be looking at with HS.

it would be a 1 time thing. not free transfer at will

quote:

---

Team will be worse, good coaches will decide to retire and not deal with recruiting his team each year (ala Saban), and kids actually won't develop because they'll get caught up in the shuffle of constantly finding a new team because mark my words, this will end up like the NCAA and there will be no limit to the number of transfers.

---

again not close to the same

quote:

---

The bleeding hearts will point out the 1% and ride them until there are unlimited transfers.

if its only 1% why do you care what 1% does?

quote:

---

Thing is, the Northshore public schools would benefit because they’re places parents want to be…

---

why is that? maybe because of who they will be attending school with vs a place like chalmette and the expectations on those kids and the vested interest the families have?

An on ramp is completely different than going max effort in the off season to impress a scout.

i agree but that wasnt happening anyways. the bigger fall tournaments are done by mid oct.

There were enough to have this decision by MLB lauded by many High School coaches, including the one at Barbe.

---

i dunno why yall think because i know alot of what is going on with barbe i have a kid there. i dont.

but that doesnt change the fact its pretty much eye wash. the major tournaments are done by mid oct and the big schools start fall scrimmages that involve high intent throwing including in game situations on the mound. so what did it really solve?

im not saying its a bad thing...im just saying it was something put in place that is more eye wash than anything.

I’M actually the one relocating. The posted was started on my behalf. Originally from New Orleans, went to undergrad at LSU and Southern law. Spent 15 years in BR, and the last 18 in Ruston/Choudrant. It’s time to comeback home down south. I appreciate the input. Please keep the info coming.

My office is downtown BR. Wife will be looking for work as a COTA when we get there. Kid loves baseball and just wants an opportunity to play.

---

then i would prolly look at central and speak to the McClure family about getting with the pelicans org and their teams. Tanna can help show you the schools too.



but I would take out waze at the times you would be commuting and see what it says. do that a couple times for both the AP areas and central and zachary

and also do for st george and weigh the time against what private school at catholic or parkview would cost

or see if it would be possible to get into Uhigh

all things to consider

working downtown...i would prefer to live in SG and try and get my kid into Uhigh or catholic. My time overall is worth more than what those cost.

but your family may be different.

But when the STG school district gets rockin’…

maybe

but you got to think...they are still a ways from that, they have to build schools and facilities, not to mention what kind of coaching they would have etc

thats a lot of ifs.

ay doesn't push guys over 100 pitches on the first weekend.

Jay's players are older, more physically mature, and under the guidance of the best baseball (and specifically pitching) S&C coach in the country.

Jay's not dealing with high school kids on high school weight programs with barely there ramp up processes.

---

sometimes they are older but not always and thats fine as far as Jay goes, I used him as an example, plenty of colleges who do not have the coaches LSU has do run them out there for that long.

and many of these top kids train remotely with the top facility and pitching coaches.

i was just using Jay and LSU as an example and I dont disagree with anything you put.

and I dont think they should have pitched him 100 plus no matter if they were up or not. Just like I didnt think Koa should have pitched a complete game either.

im just saying, do pick and choose when to be outraged and we dont have the whole picture as far as how much that kid is ramped up.
