You do that of which I mentioned, and I'm sure the private schools will kindly go up a class.
Also, if small towns have more than 2 co-op schools, then they should go up as well.
And what about those schools like Northern Cass, Central Cass, and Kindred that are like suburbs of that metropolis of Fargo??
Shouldn't they be looked at the same way you do other public schools that are that close to such a large metropolis like Fargo? They shouldn't be allowed to play with the class B schools either.Sniper wrote:magic man wrote:If they would approve the private schools to offer sports scholarships and not have the same transfer rules as the as the rest of the Fargo public schools, I think those private schools in Fargo would sign up for playing up a class..
Get it signed Sniper and ND Sports Fan..
One of the Bismarck schools has gotten a decent amount of transfers in the past years (that happen to be athletes) while having the same transfer rules as everyone else. Also we do not expect the private schools to want to play up a class, why would they? They would lose their advantages over the small schools and would basically flip roles and not be the top dog in terms of advantages anymore.
You, me and everyone else knows the state is not going to do what you requested that I do. How does the number of small towns in a co-op matter? It is about the number of kids and the resources in their towns. There is a difference between living in a bigger city like Bismarck or Fargo than living in a smaller town outside of them. Most students in small schools do not live in town and live out of town, mostly on farms and ranches. I would rather the schools that are near the bigger cities have the advantage rather than the private schools in the bigger cities.
