[QUOTE="SOWEGA Jacket, post: 875034, member: 4334"] You don’t think the same thing is happening in high level softball? My daughter played 2 years of travel softball and it’s the exact same scene as AAU hoops, travel baseball, and football camps. Sure, the money, perks, and back door deals are scaled down but it’s the exact same system, So you may as well as watch football because softball, volleyball, etc are not pure. There are still deals, academic exceptions, and everything else. Unfortunately, in todays world any sport above 8th grade is corrupted. I know multiple high school baseball players who were “adopted by family members” so they could attend a different high school than the one their parents are zoned for. Saw several football players do the same thing so they could attend Colquitt County under Rush. And yes, I’ve seen softball players transfer high schools as well. I’ve accepted this a long time ago. I find it interesting that folks are just now freaking out. I recently had a conversation with the dad of a high end baseball player at Auburn. I asked him what his son was majoring in and looking to do after graduation. He looked at me like I was crazy and all he said was baseball. It was very awkward. [/QUOTE]
