And I also know for fact the kid from Knott was shopped at other schools previous to FD and couldn’t be promised what he wanted promised but eventually he ended up somewhere where he was promised. I can’t speak on what I do not know, but I’ve spoke on what I do know as fact and backed that up.

Again as I said it does not matter if a parent and has the means and want their kid to play for a very good program that does as well as promoting their players to schools at the next level what is the problem it is evident they have not done anything for the KHSAA to step in or level any punishment towards Douglass (grant it they are weak). Also as I stated above why is nothing even said about those other schools I mentioned earlier you surely not naive enough to think that all of these excellent players just show up at those schools just randomly out f the blue and only Douglass  gets kids to come there. Nothing that I have seen on here ever say anything towards these other schools.

Well we are on a Douglass thread.

Oh okay I go to each of those schools I listed and see what you said about all the kids they have transferred into their programs the past few years then. thanks

I blasted Corbin for paying for the Smith Twins. I'm an equal opportunist!

That is great that at least you do. Most on here just take shots at Douglass. I do want to clear up some things: When the school opened Coach Landis and the football staff went to both the FCPS central office and the KHSAA and inquired if it was within the rules and okay to go to houses of players who were in their district at the middle school and high school level and were told yes that is fine and is not against any rules if the houses are in their district. They have been several kids attend Douglass that do not live physically in their district, but they attend Douglass because they qualified to attend the Carter G. Woodsen Academy which was placed in the new Douglass high school by the FCPS board and central office due to overcrowding at their then downtown central office.

Finally with the student athlete that has went back to Madison Co. several kids through the years have come to Douglass and quickly find out that it is just different and much more physical and intense and just the level of talent that you line up against day in and day out is more than they want to go through. That is all I'll say about that I think it was like just 2 or 3 practices.
