I am impressed that some are starting to come around to the idea that I have been advocating for quite some time.....get the sport away from the schools!<br><br>Kids can go to whatever school they want and play for their community.<br>They can get the "best" education available and we can end all of this angst about open enrollment. <br><br>If that happened, I wonder what the effect on open enrolment numbers would be? Ill bet theyd be cut in half.<br><br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p100.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ... ckerboy</A> at: 10/24/05 8:32 am<br></i>

It seems like there is alot of angst over maybe 400 kids that open enroll every year in the state of Minnesota- an average size school has maybe 1500 athletes a year. We are suggesting that an entire system is gutted and replaced by an alternative for a very small number of athletes that actually open enroll. The numbers aren't there in my mind for a system overhaul. <p></p><i></i>
