Thanks for another reminder on why I will not send my kids to Bullis. Not interested in paying 35k a year only to be tossed aside junior/senior year by these transfers. Many of whom arent pay tuition. And don't start with the he can't hack the competition argument. You really don't know how good these transfer kids are. Prince Charming effect.

LOL. First of all, you have no idea how much tuition assistance a family gets (not is it any of your business). But because Bullis brings in many African-American, OF COURSE they are on scholarship, right?

And the same thing happens at Prep and other schools, especially with football and basketball. Kids get recruited over at every IAC and WCAC school. Get over yourself.

The competition argument is at the center of the whole issue. While I can understand the frustration, the reality is the we're talking about some of the best schools that play lacrosse in the country. The coaches are paid to win and build that legacy. Part of that calculus is putting the best 10 players on the field you can play.

No coach in their right mind would say no to the #1 attackman in his class to join his team. Sorry, not going to happen at Bullis or Landon or Prep, etc. etc. Same will be said up the college ranks and into the pros. That's why players get traded, transfer, etc. Not pretty, but that is reality. [/quote]

These kids are not falling in Bullis lap by chance. Its a well known fact Bullis actively pursued the kid from Charlottesville. Believe me, my son plays in the same club program as their coaching staff approached several other kids to transfer in as juniors. And don't give me that crap these coaches are paid to win and build that legacy, its HIGH SCHOOL LACROSSE, this is not High school football in Texas.

The latest transfer from last week really makes you question the integrity of the school.
