Chass, but, if the answer is no, then it matters greatly what the "other" guy is doing.



Very true and fair, Bear. I just wonder why it is that there are seldom any particulars of discrepancy mentioned (such as coaching style and quality, general philosophy of management, happiness or unhappiness of players, percentage of players who seek and gain college spots, degree of development of players over time) other than number of state titles won. That doesn't necessarily denote the quality of the system, although it MAY be a product. It could also be that the same pool of players under a different club's management and coaching would do as well. It's hard to say. If people aren't happy, though, it should be because they're not achieving their goals--not just because another club happens to win that final match at the end of the season.

I've got good news and bad news...
