I actually agree with you Papa Hatfield.
My oldest played several years in North Carolina which we all know has the relegation system. Kids knew they had to earn their way as a team up the ladder. They also had to play several weeks just to make it to a final 4 in the state playoffs. There are times when after being on a team for awhile and not getting anywhere better players do move on.
I think there are usually 2 top teams with 1 maybe each year that everyone knows will be in the state championship in SC. Kids and parents start to take for granted what winning a state and going to reginals and the big tournys means because it is too easy.
Hurst and Firstouch could shed some light on the nc side.
