[HAIL PIKEVILLE!]

There is a lot of truth in this. I still believe however that every school has a handful of kids that want to play but have some obstacle (Transportation, grades, etc)blocking them. A lot of times there are procedures in place to help with these things but many do not know this and just assume that the issue they have is preventive .These are the kids I think the coach staff can reach to help the numbers.

I see what you're saying. But you and I both know that if ANY kid wanted to play football @ our respective alma maters. Both coaches would do whatever they could to get that kid on the team no matter if he'd be a starter or benchwarmer. All they'd have to do is talk the coaches...
