[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think this entire thread is based on the wrong premise and a misunderstanding of what SJC football is planning to do.

A person I know who is close to the AD said that what is actually happening is the following:

- Varsity 1 team:  no change...this team will continue to play in the WCAC "A" league (Gonzaga, Dematha, GC and McNamara) plus a national schedule...the same thing they have been doing for at least 6+ years

- New V2 team:  call it an elevated JV team that will now play some Varsity games in the WCAC "B" league...BI, PVI, O'Connell...as well as JV games against the A League schools

I think the GC transfers had nothing to do with the change in the SCJ football model, and everything to do with the GC coach moving to SJC.[/quote]

This makes so much more sense. Thank you![/quote]

It still demonstrates the school is focused on improving athletics first and foremost - rather than academics.  The athletic recruiting will undoubtedly impact the culture of the school.[/quote]

No, it doesn't. Improving one thing (athletics) does not mean they are not ALSO improving another thing (academics), or even many things (arts, robotics, etc.). More than one thing can be true at the same time.[/quote]
