Once again you danced around the question because you know it would be a sin to lie on here or anywhere. Therefore you cannot bring yourself to come right out and say that you don't recruit and that it is not a significant advantage. I don't have to offer anything because I asked the question and you can't answer it. My training tells me that when you answer a question with a question you are hiding something.

I would suggest that you are dancing a hasty retreat. Let's just say that, because of its athletic and academic tradition for excellence, Trinity doesn't have to recruit. Or, if you prefer, Trinity recruits far less than most successful government schools. I don't know for what government school your son, no. 55 (I don't guess he is 55 years old), plays. And, you sure haven't revealed your school. However, I will state that, if your government school is successful in athletics, it recruits. If it is not successful, it probably doesn't recruit. And, of course, recruiting is in the eyes of the partisan.

All in all, Trinity and St. Xavier don't need to recruit. And, to be even handed, neither does Fort Thomas. Because of academics and athletics and the exposure their students get in both areas, they don't need to recruit.
