If he's from the suburbs, how is he going to Simeon?

There was a wrestler a few years back who in 3 years went Catholic,Suburban Public,Catholic. To get eligible at the second catholic school he used his real address making it look like he moved back to the city.

I mean lets be honest, secrets out. I think we're going to see more and more CPS schools start to nab up kids from CCL teams. The teams sell themselves. Why go to a catholic school with a bunch of kids you don't know, pay thousands of dollars, wear a uniform, etc etc etc, at a catholic school when you can just come to whatever CPS school your buddies are going to and still win games and get recruited?

More and more this will start to happen.

That has been going on for decades. Our basketball program at MC was a feeder team for King and Julian when I was there.

The difference now is Phillips has also been getting the best players from lower level CPS teams along with the CCL schools and able to beat up on small schools like a lot of the private schools have done over the years. This would have happened much earlier if we had 8 classes and the school sizes we do in CPS now back in the 80s.

So true. During the mid 90s Hubbard was plucking away at MC players but they could never get over the hump. I believe their best season was a semifinals appearance.

Why is it ok to speculate about a Simeon transfer but not talk about a Montini transfer who ENROLLED there already and taking classes.

Lol that’s what I’m saying. Was puzzled to see it gone, considering it’s actually done.

Maybe someone from Montini reported the thread. There are a ton of transfers throughout Illinois that aren't talked about here.

Please recap the transfers. I hope our GM is out getting the best free agents available.
