Transfers are nothing new around here. Its just the frequency of them that has picked up. A few years ago everybody was dogging the Russell basketball program. Ashalnd is always getting a hard time from area schools about transfers. Shoot I think everybody that ever played at Ironton transferred in from somewhere. The point is that you can not sustain a program built on transfers. It is a short term fix at best. In this case it is extra ridiculous because we are talking about kids that are still in middle school. Amazing.

Bottom line is......Raceland is not recruiting anybody. They are just coming. Would Russell turn them down? I think not. Just like in the movie "A Field of Dreams"....If you build it they will come. I hear the corn talking. I will guarantee you Russell got some transfers this year. They may not be football players or they may not even be athletes at all but, i guarantee they got some and, I'll bet Devil58 talked them into coming. Devil58 is the secret recruiter.
