What's going on with these so-called "schools"?

I know somebody that transferred to Hillcrest Prep this year. Hoe ass school don't even release their stats and you gotta have a monthly sub to watch games

A bunch of swindling bullshyt is how I see it.

Shouldn't even be called a school.

Should just call it Teen Basketball, even though I wouldn't be surprised if there were 20 yr olds in that shyt.

Youth basketball has been ENORMOUSLY industrialized.

I coach, and my son is heavy in the circuit.

My guy that runs the program my son plays for is in the process of starting a prep school but I'm not gonna send my kid there.

He's going to a real school.

Why's it so easy to start these 'schools'?

If I can get to college from a sham school why would I go to a real school. In the old days you would have to worry about getting eligible but they seem to have figured that out

Link Academy is currently exploring becoming a fully accredited 4-Year high school focused on academics, athletics, and leadership development that equips young men and women with a biblical worldview for a lifetime of excellence. Various sports would be offered for student athletes who are dedicated, committed, and passionate about academics and athletics.

Yeah this shyt shouldn't be legal

It's sad because most of these kids don't go pro and then they have no education either. Meanwhile cacs are eatin off them

High School basketball been corrupted years ago

 

[mastermind]

This crap is why the NBA should set up youth academies. You got fake schools set up to extract money.

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

My 19 year old nephew got caught up in that shyt. Some prep school in Atlanta that claimed to send all these people to the NBA. The wild thing is that it was POST high school. They had a manufactured scheduled and took classes online for the local community college. They lived in apartments in a small town.

The wild thing was my nephew wound up getting robbed by his own teammates and that's why he came home. There was literally no adult supervision outside of basketball practice.

Because the education is fake? I think that would be better for the athletes, more time to hoop.
