Virginia Catholic HS (Football) League

[757FridayNiteZ]

With Eric Crosby openly admitting on HS Sports Talk 94.1FM yesterday, that coach(s) at Bishop Sullivan attempted to recruit him, WHAT are the rules for the Virginia Catholic HS League? From how this was initially discussed, there may be reclassification allowed and they must be supportive of recruiting too?

Maybe it really doesn't matter. These schools won't play for the VHSL Champions

757Friday, it's actually worse that you can ever imagine. They have Ocean Lakes, Indian River and several other public school kids (that are not part of BSCHS) coming over everyday training (Mon - Thu) with Coach Scott and his staff, come on over if you want to see the elite of 757. There are several kids that have openly admitted to the NEW BSCHS football coaching staff recruiting them to come to BSCHS but it is up to the VISAA to investigate these allegations. Private Schools (that are part of the VISAA, which BSCHS is one) do have rules on recruiting but the enforcement part is where they are found lacking. As far as this so called Virginia Catholic High School League is concerned looks like it is going to be a non-starter as most of the schools have backed out due to the recruiting perceptions of BSCHS. The real problem is that BSCHS is part of the TCIS and they have to follow the TCIS rules if they want to stay a part of that organization. The real question is will the TCIS let BSCHS (football only) out of the TCIS and how does that effect the overall sports program at BSCHS.

found this quote on in an article on recruit757- Bill Simmons, Athletic Director at Ireton, recently said, “I don’t see this happening. We talked about football just to see and fill up our schedules. The developments at (Bishop) Sullivan make it less likely even that will continue. Northern Virginia schools can get all of that approach in the WCAC without going to Virginia Beach.” I read this as the Catholic League will never happen. they don't want to play teams that recruit as heavily as Bishop.

That's how I read that issue as well.
