Facts about LN

That 1.9 includes scholarships which are given for community service and academic excellence. Remainder is need based and is blind need based. Lat year very frshman got 1,000 to help boost enrollment. I know a star player's family that paid a hefty amount of tuition even though their son was a D1 player. If people on here actually interacted with TC and LN parents they find a lot of similarities. Working class families working hard to provide their kids opportunities. This is not the ABC league or MCC, parents make sacrifaces for their kids to play at LN and TC.

I am not even going to pretend to know what these schools do with tuition or scholarships, but I will say this was a very well written post.

My fellow St. Louisian,

Please save your fingers. Many of us have attempted to explain to these imbeciles how things work. They have no interest in learning anything. They are set in their thoughts about the Loaded Super Star laced, ass kicking STL Private schools.

They dont care about the kids, admissions, or tuition crap...they care that for the first time in a while the best teams in the state are from St. Louis. So nothing you're saying actually matters to them.

Just troll them and talk trash. Much funner this way than actually explaining things to people who live on Corn fields on Range Line Rd in Joplin.

Hey I live next to fescue field and it is 40 miles away from Range Line Joplin.
 
It's comical that there are truly people out there that want a participation trophy SO bad ...

I'll buy you a big one so you can hang it in your living room. Just so everyday you know that you are just as good as Trinity or LN. You guys may have taken different roads to get that trophy, but it'll be the same one and then all will be good.
You could just sell us one of the trophies that Trinty or LN purchased.
 
If you think I am jealous of a teams success then again you have not followed me on this board very long. If you think I am jealous of a kids going off to a great college and getting recruited then again you don't know me. Lamar won 7 titles in a row the beat the crap out of my cubs some years...I never complained. Webb has won many titles again if we move back to class 4 they will probable stand in our way of a district title it is what it is I went to watch them play this Saturday. Cassville over the last decade has had continued success and has sent my beloved Cubs home in the district game. John Boroughs beat us twice in the Semi's and really not a lot of fans from Monett complained even about them being a private school. I think there is talk of even erecting a billboard that will say Home to Zek Elliot for one game just outside our city limits LOL.

What you do not realize about the recruitment process is these kids were going to be recruited with or without these coaches. I can tell you every one of LN and Trinity players would have the same offers even if they played down here in SWMO for Pierce City, because they have what college coaches are looking for and that is Measurables, they have size, they have speed and just Gawd given talent that others don't. Trinity and LN coaches want to beat their chest like they are doing something special for these kids and I call bull. My Daughter never played one inning in high school softball her high school coach did not have a clue when it came to knowing the first thing about the recruitment process who to contact or what to do, but guess what she had played in College and got a scholarship, why because coaches saw her play in summer leagues and they don't miss many players that can help them in any sport.

I am glad those kids are going to get a good education, I hope they go onto College and become a great success and get a good education! I really do honestly hope these kids succeed!! I myself fostered kids we adopted three!! I always love rooting for the underdog.

What upsets me is these coaches and small private schools are using top notch players to help enrich themselves. How many kids that don't have talent have they cast to the gutter or not helped ... probably many. Now I could be wrong but you don't see them crowing about any NAIA or NCAA II players. You don't see them tweeting anything about the kids who are just going on to college on academic scholarship, so that sort of tells me they only care about big names and what they can do to help them get recognition as D1 coaches and be known as scholarship high. Again I could be wrong I hope I am wrong, and I really want these kids to succeed, but I want to see even the kids that are not going on to Power 5 programs succeed. By your demeaning talk and what you have said about our kids down here is SWMO because they are not going on to power 5 schools and will not amount to anything and all of us SWMO hicks will end up working at Dairy Queen and it is obvious from your post you don't care.

Someone could of filed a complaint to MSHSAA on Zeke Elliott. His home in Alton, IL was more then 20 miles from John Burroughs. Which even private schools are not allowed to exceed.
 
I stand corrected, there are approximately 125 male students at Lutheran North. Their HC claims 21 have D1 offers, that's only 17% of their male enrollment, not 25% like I previously stated.
 
This post totally explains everything. I am so glad you took the time to provide this info, because I'm pretty sure no one in Lamar has ever heard of this new- fangled "spread". I heard some guys talking about it at DQ the other day, but they weren't from around here. I am honestly a little concerned now!

What is more concerning is this new "one week to prepare" rule. That sure is gonna be hard for these boys! I hope coach can figure it out!
The other night we went to Tastee freeze and there was this couple passin through from St Louis i think they stopped because they heard about our new stuff there they call soft serve and they seem to like to try new stuff and I guess they have these internets things now and they said they could get these internets on their telephones but what they claimed was telephones kinda looked like real small tvs and there wernt no cords on them and i told them we were real lucky to live where we did cuz we could get Joplin tv stations and Springfield tv stations to and they said they could get stations from Atlanta Chicago and even New York but im thinkin id be afraid to have an antenny big enough to do that cuz im only 5feet and 9inches tall because when i was a baby momma says the goat went dry thats when she stops giving milk and i didn't get to have enough milk when i was a baby so im short and momma says that might be why i ramble on at times trying to get attention but it might be fun to try some of them new things they have in St Louis cuz these folks kept looking at these texts things and were pretty excited about them and the texts i got in school were pretty boring to me i better stop now cuz momma says its good to not say to much at one sitting

Do ya live off Interstate Farty Four? Ya hear that lots in Branson.................so some St. Louisans actually do like the Ozarks...............:cool::cool::cool:

Lutheran North doesn’t have 21 D1 players on their team please show me were HC made this claim. They have maybe 8. If it was that much they would be a much better football team
 
I have no idea how these private schools operate but I sent my daughter to a private school in Joplin during grade school . Their tuition was based upon your family income . I made too much to qualify but there were different rates for different students
 
There are 280 students at Lutheran N. I could not find any data on how many were male and female. Let’s make the assumption there is a 1:1 gender ratio. That would give us approximately 230 male students at LNorth.
(Source: Lutheran North HS homepage)

If Lutheran N has 21 kids in the program that will/are being recruited (Source: FBIsLif...oops...I mean...Coaches’ tweet), that
means 21/140 males at North are future divisions 1 football players. Therefore, 15% of male students are division 1 recruits.
Raw, stop doing math this morning.

280 students at LN and you go with a 1:1 ratio and somehow get 230 of them being male? My Lord.

I live on a dirt road and it takes me 15 minutes to get to Lamar. I have pasture to the north, cattle lot to the west and soybeans to the south....and d*mn proud of it.
If you don’t think facing an offense that’s the polar opposite of the Wing T with only one week to prepare for it is a challenge, then you don’t know as much about football as you think you do.

YOU may not be concerned about it, but if Bailey makes it through their side of the bracket, he’ll be struggling to get his boys up to speed to even be able to simulate the offense in practice.
This made me laugh!! You obviously know nothing about Bailey and how he works! He doesn’t just prepare for a team one week ahead of time. If he thinks he will be seeing a team the next year he will start studying a year ahead. He has a team of coaches and not just those on the sidelines, an amazing guy who keeps statistics who goes thru tons of game films to break down, one’s who go film other teams, etc Never underestimate Bailey. There is a reason he won 7 state championships. He is ready for every game he plays.

All true BUT, has he ever had to deal with a sophisticated offense like the spread???? Those St Louis teams are light years ahead of us hicks!
 
Wait,,,,, did some private school clueless, unbelievably brainwashed, not accepting of the facts, fan boy really tell me to keep chirping? When his very own arguement was so laughable it was just regurgitated nonsense only the idiot's at mshsaa would swallow and accept?

Lmaooooooooof

Thank you, You’re absolutely right.
Merely because they’ve amassed more talent than any public class 2 program will have. Ever.

It's not just about talent. Lamar has shown that and Blair Oaks showed that last year. The Ritter team is not nearly as stacked as that TC team that got tested in the mid bowl in Southern Boone and only ended up with one title for a very strong senior class. Ritter will get tested and it will not be an easy path for them to get a title.
 
Classes are not about parity. Performance multipliers and allowing schools to play up are aimed more towards parity. Everyone will not get a trophy and there will always be dominant programs that win big. Pretty sure the kids and coaches at Lamar, Blair Oaks, Lathrop, Odessa, Maryville, or other successful teams could care less about LN, Ritter, or anyone else. Fans should take the same view. There will never be an equal playing field because some coaches are better than others, some schools have better community support than others, some have more money and resources, and on on.
 
You can listen to Coach Reed from #scholarshiphigh (his words) discuss his D1 athletes with Gabe DeArmond on powermizzou.com podcast.
 
It isn't about an "equal playing field". No one I know wants equal outcome. It's about a level playing field. A field where everyone has equal or similar opportunity.
One question: Why don't we all play in one class?

Yep. Here’s another fact. Ritter will beat the brakes off every other Class 2 team in Missouri.

I don’t care if you root for or against Ritter, because you’ll still have to watch them OR Lutheran North win State this year.
That is about as accurate as the other "facts" you quote on here. To beat the brakes off every other Class 2 team in Missouri means that Ritter will have to play all 63 other Class 2 teams. How many years will that take? Nice fact there dude.
