Difference being that no one can play with them (at least two teams played with Mandan in the Tourney) and they don't pay any attention to the allegations (Mandan fans take it soooo personal and are obviously defensive about it)

Perhaps if anti-Mandan posters didn't sound so much like whinners and complainers students coming to the area would chose your school.

This isn't quite the same. For one Mandan didn't get 4 new girls this year, it was one girl who actually moved. In order for it to be comparable it would need to be something like LaFrance, Fettig, and the Feeneys all transfering to Mandan and not moving.

I'd say a better comparison would be 2 Dickinson Trinity girls transfering to Dickinson High and starting for them. Can anyone enlighten us as to if this has ever happened?
Plus if you call out Mandan, why not call out Shanley? I'm sure Shuler's transfer didn't sit too well with FS or DL but you didn't see t-shirts, signs and flyers. (Plus they handed them out to Mandan people, how dumb) Because the Fargo and DL fans, while it may bother them, wouldn't stoop that low like the Bismarck/Century fans.

That was not a really the best idea to hand out the flyers to Mandan people. Of course, I am sure that it was to get a rise out of Mandan people. Just shows who has sportsmanship.

The Mandan Players and Coaches displayed the most class when playing opponents this year. No technicals, warnings, arguing with referees, etc. The girls went about business and brought home a state championship trophy! By the way, I heard a few WDA Coaches approached Marlee's parent about transferring to their school, and Mandan was not one of them!!! Interesting!!!

Come on now. Show me a coach that doesn't get on the refs. They are all trying to pursuade the black and white that their team should be getting the calls.

Umm...that's what we did at bismarck high. Wilhelm went to horizon middle school on the north side of town because that's where he lives, but steve miller talked to him several times and promised a position for him if he went on the south side to play for bhs.
Referring to if the girl isn't that good is it still considered recruiting? Yes, I believe taken alive was projected to be a better player and transferred in but primarily played jv. Jenson was another transfer.
Was finlee's family reason to distance herself from her brother?

When and where from did Jensen tranfer? Just currious because I know her mom works at the HS and is the 8th grade girls basketball coach.

People have always claimed that Steve Miller recruits, but just like now...nothing is done about it and it blows over.

I believe that Paige Jenson has been in Mandan since 6th grade.

My answer would have been the 8th grade as her first school year in Mandan. I could be wrong.
