I like recruiting. I think that it is the greatest thing for families that would not if they werent approached or asked the question, what about so and so School???

I agree with the thought that the program sells itself, but, it has to get to that point first. Case in point, when Puns was running the ILH, before Cal came back, it was misery at kalaepohaku, but a few key players brought in that enhanced the players already there completely rejuvenated the program.

If you still disagree, lets go talk to our uso’s out of Mayor Wrights in the mid 80’s to mid 90’s or Mrs. C, the benefactor that helped them attend St. Lulu.

Finally, we are talking about the kids who are great athletes, that do not have a dime to pay for their tuition, fees, books, uniforms, lunch, etc, etc. The ones that benefactors are paying for not the ones who’s parents struggle every month to pay tuition. The ones that would be at their home school if not recruited and assisted to attend your school. Oh yeah, this not one bash St. Lulu post, all the private schools have varying levels of recruiting as well as some OIA schools.

As I have mentioned before, recruiting helps families. Its not a bad thing.

But it is a thing.

Is it a coach actively going to BB Leagues, PW games?
Some Alumnus suggesting to friends with an exceptional athlete son, “ever thought of sending your son to St. Lulu?
Maybe, holding clinics on Sunday for QBS and Rec’s?

I guess there are degrees of recruiting depending on how some look at it.

I dont have a problem with recruiting, it ultimately comes down to parents making the decision and sacrifice to send their son or daughter to private school for academics, opportunities to excel at whatever sport they participate in and to establish a network they can utilize for the rest of their life for professional and personal gain.

But lets not say it doesn’t exist.

-“You cannot do a crossover of leagues for just football and not include ALL sports. ILH and OIA merger should include all sports on the table with shared revenues. If cannot, then ILH can stick to their 3 team super league and be in the HPW,Scoring Live,Cover 2 top 10 every year. ”

I agreed with you, its not a point of contention for me. Do it or dont, Im an advocate for merging football, but you insist that we do it across the board with all sports, then you come up with reasons why cannot. I should step out and let you debate yourself, cuz thats what you doing.

Dont hurt your brain thinking about the logistics, btw, is that your answer to the question? Logistics is the reason why there shouldnt be a merger??
Lets agree to table merging all the sports and focus on just football. What then would be your reasons for not having the merge?

Please read twice before you answer and then read your answer twice before saying you not one robot. thx.

It’s too bad Kahuku never (or rarely, I could be wrong) has stories like this about high level academics.

Lets do it, crossover all sports then I dont have a problem with it. Kind of funny that you mention revenue, I not even talking about money, but thats how small minded you are and how much people like you focus on the “unfairness of it all”.

So your opposition to the merger is what?

ILH will die??? Well good luck with KAHUKU Killing everybody in the OIA every year.
