Ohio high school set to play spring football schedule

How many families do you think will pay 75K a year? IMG offers 8 sports (Tennis, Football, Soccer, Baseball, Basketball, Golf, Lacrosse and Track. I've highlighted the two sports that would stand any type of chance for this type of thing to work in Ohio. It just so happens that football and basketball were the last two sports that IMG began offering...once they had a ton of money coming in from the other sports. It's just not feasible which is part of the reason these programs fail everywhere else. They promise to be the next IMG when in reality it's just a scam that hurts the kids.
Yeah. There was a kid I went to college with, a Thai national, who attended school at IMG with the idea he could network with Americans and play competitive tennis. IMG, as in the school and its mastodon athletics program, is made possible by the paying customers -- many of whom are in those sports you did not highlight.

I understand where ghsknightsfan is coming from, but I really don't see an IMG model working in Ohio. For all the reasons that you mentioned, and also the fact if there isn't already a school that operates on a model most-similar to what IMG is then I don't see how they could easily come into that structure without possibly going under. And I'm not too sure where all such a school in Ohio could pull from? Indiana has La Lumiere, PA has a crap-ton of boarding schools, as does New Jersey. The DC Metro has the mega competitive Catholic leagues.

The only school in Ohio that I could possibly see going into a mold similar to IMG would be Harvest Preparatory School in Canal Winchester, but that again really does come down to dollars-and-cents.
 
Had a buddy that used to do some international recruiting for the golf program. It was interesting to learn how CEO's in Asian countries would basically decide their kids would be golfers at a young age. They would pay for the best coaches and anything else needed in order for them to be good enough to go to IMG. Once in America their job was to make business connections. And the better they were at golf...the more connections they can make.
 
"Our main goal is to provide students with exemplary experience in athletics and academics. "

Rare to see a program put athletics in front of academics. Guess it makes sense when you aren't a registered school with the ODE.
 
Life Christian Academy showed the 4/9 game on Maxpreps but it's gone now. Maxpreps also shows LCA, not Bishop Sycamore, at St. Frances (MD) on 4/16. St. Francis (NY) has them on their schedule but they are on pause due to covid so their schedule might be shuffled. I don't see any schedules anywhere for St. Thomas More or West Toronto Prep and a game in Canada was unlikely to happen anyway due to Canada's travel restrictions.
 
this sounds like it is the same thing as that other football team that got in trouble a few years ago, whatever it was called. Seems super suspect.

Maybe it's because they refused to come take a tour and find out what they're all about.

I can understand the 2021 if they are young for their class or choose to use bishop sycamore as a “prep school” season but 2020 and 2019 is a little ridiculous
 
Now a charter bus company is suing them. What's next?

I won't be surprised if the whole thing blows up in spectacular fashion in the next three months.

This place is a joke ... just like COF was. No one should be scheduling them, period. They are not sanctioned and will NEVER be sanctioned by the OHSAA. A bunch of coaches who think they know how to coach or run a program.
 
52 ineligible players is not that big of a deal?
If the state of ohio hasn't said they did anything wrong or illegal what's the problem? I could honestly give two fs about BS but y'all have been on here saying the same for almost a year no.....#1 they don't have a address to there school so why keep asking? #2 If you don't plan on sending your kid to BS then why care?#3 If local and national high schools are still willing to play and they already know what's going on with BS an they are ok with playing why Tf do you care? #4 Now I agree with y'all if they are out here stealing money and doing people wrong that are trying to help them then that's messed up but at least they are trying to help kids out you can't knock somebody for trying to help out the younger Generation.
 
I would argue that, and i have no evidence of this, but they are not actually helping kids out. If they can't run an actual organization correctly, what is to say they can even coach. If they are bad coaches, this could actually hurt some kids. And, some of these "kids" that are 19/20 years old, they are being feed the line that they still have a shot, and to be honest, most likely they dont. Sometimes these players fall through the cracks and need that extra shot or whatever but most of the time, they just arent good enough to be D1 and they refuse to go D2 or D3. Some people need brutal honesty, not people feeding them BS and making things actually worse
