I probably shouldn't have mentioned my son in that example. He would have helped....but wouldn't have changed the essence of the game.

Cobb was better 2 years ago than his R3 team was. And SCU was probably a better Academy side last year than his Academy team from 2 years ago.

Confused?

How about this....this past Fall, his R3 team scrimmaged and beat twice......his Academy team.



Could some of this improvement be traced to the arrival of a non-academy player? The Brasilian Lucas (Clover HS)?

Kids play sports because they find it fun. Eliminate the fun and soon you eliminate the kid.
