My answer to this would be that if any kid in high school really want's to go to collage to better their self then do it through the books. Academic books that is then if they are good enough and talented enough then go ahead and play ball also. There is 10 to 1 academic scholarship's to sport's scholarship given out each year. So if these guy's or anyone else want's to better there self's then that's how it should be done. And we as parents really need to stress that to our kids. But as always this is just my opinion:graduate:

In a perfect world this would be great, however that we do not live in. LC is not known for its academics. Also you have guidance counselors, especially one who takes no thought or interest in helping kids get any info about scholarships or help advise them. Those are all rigged as anyone who has attended and awards banquet has seen. So there is absolutely nothing wrong with trying to get college paid for with a sports scholarship regardless how small the college may be. Not everyone can afford to pay for a four year degree out of pocket. So before you advice LC students to get academic scholarships (which would be great) step back and take a look at their academic and test scores and then go to an awards banquet. I'm telling you this whole administration is crooked. It needs to be fixed because the kids don't have a chance. Haven't for a long time.
