They’re supposed to announce tomorrow that Trinity Head football coach Bob Beatty is retiring. I hope the new coach will have continued success but Trinity loses a lot of players this year.

Good for him. I hope he enjoys it and doesn’t miss FB a bit.His mom died several years and left him lots of money. It's pretty impressive that he cont'd to coach, but did not have to. Time to have fun now.
Is LeFors a legit candidate? I figured once he took that gig in Louisiana, his home state, he was there for the long haul.I’m no Trinity guy, but the could do worse than Stefan LeFors
He coached here CAL for a time then went home to Louisiana.I’m no Trinity guy, but the could do worse than Stefan LeFors
For the umpteenth time - in terms of recruiting as is defined by the collegiate level - public schools don’t recruit. For that matter - neither do privates. Kids either have the tuition to go where they want, or they are eligible for tuition assistance. Tuition assistance is administered by a national third part company and is only available on a financial need basis. Private schools do not make the determination.When Trinity hired Coach Beatty they did a nation wide search and they received resumes from every state in the union including Alaska and Hawaii. I expect them to do the same thing this time around. All schools recruit including the public schools the advantage the private schools have is that they have more to offer.
Well, the typical way the term recruiting is used - particularly against Trinity or other privates - is that those schools are paying some or all of the tuition costs for kids to come there based upon their athletic prowess. You know - kinda like colleges do.I guess your idea of recruiting is totally different from the standard definition of recruiting. When a member of a coaching staff from a school reaches out to a player and his family and offers them playing time and other perks that is recruiting. Coach Redman while at Male was great at it.
Public school kids go to the school in their assigned district. They can go to a school outside of their district if the school they want to go to offers a class that the other school doesn’t. That even includes wood shop and it is done every year.
If you’re good enough - colleges will find you no matter where you play. Waggener for example - no football powerhouse by any stretch - had two D1 commitments in 2019. Of course there are students who don’t participate in athletics who receive tuition assistance - it’s a need based thing. It being need based - and not having anything to do with whether a kid is a good athlete was pretty much my point. It’s like you didn’t even read my post and yet responded to it.I don’t think it has anything to do with paying their way. It had more to do with going to a program where you can play and get recognized by college recruiters. When I went to Trinity we had students from different backgrounds that received tuition assistance. I would say about 98% of them did not play sports. A lot of kids from Boys Haven went to Trinity. When Redman was coaching Male he had kids from out of Jefferson County playing football there.
