I think all Coach Brock is saying is that private schools are able to offer scholarships to students that live in their general area. Enrollment has nothing to do with it.
That said, I have friends that coach many of these teams who are great people and excellent coaches which I am sure also extends to their parent base. I am just as sure these players and coaches work hard to achieve their goals.
Private schools can offer atmospheres and in some cases academic challenges hard to match at thier public school counterparts.
I am not trying to bash any of these schools or coaches--some fine teams and fine coaches, as mentioned above--but it is what it is.
If public schools(or their representatives) approach players outside of thier attendance area, the penalty the HSL can and does impose is the most severe they hand out--banishment of the program for a year or playoff banishment or both.
