Happy , I have no dog in the fight (yet), but being in a succesful team may be clouding what you see.

True or False?
CESA holds a spring showcase where some ODP teams play. The showcase is to show of CESA to all.... therefore TRUE recruiting (at least subliminally)is there thus you are correct

True or False?
Bridge coach approaches ODP players and invites them play for his team and has his parents add to the "pressure"... TRUE recruiting exists and again you are correct

True or false?
CUFC coach (who apparently missed the meeting where the leadership discouraged conatcting players) tells his high school players that they need to play for CUFC. The implication here is no CUFC no HS next year... Again True - so how is this any different than the first 2

All 3 are factual, all 3 happened and CUFC is in it with the big boys. You may not see it but everyone else does... that maybe why the CESA folks do not see it either.
