The player college commits this year at Imhotep is amazing . Albie and his staff should be proud . I'm hoping that The Tep ramps up their schedule this year to reflect the talent the school has. The 60 point wins get monotonous .

Whats that supposed to mean . You have a problem with West CatholicThat's not saying much....
I'm sure Tep would have no problem scheduling any team in the area, nobody wants to play them.Amen Relayer, Imhotep needs to ramp the schedule up if they want respect. Their schedule is a weak with little interference even at 4A unless Beca, ACC step it up. McDevitt and Cathedral are on the same level (with each other) but between Charter Schools, Private schools and the terrible job the PIAA did with the new classifications, Pennsylvania has become a glimmer of what it once was and far from the stature it recently held. Gives great impetus to soccer tho!
When you look at the few schools who can give ICS a game, you're talking private schools exclusively and that's a sad commentary on HS football in PA. Competitive football that most of us grew up with is over in this state and others.
Why do we even talk about rankings or playoffs when they are a foregone conclusion in January.

4th is good don't get me wrong. Great for the kid. But 4th out of how many? 400? Catholic Education isn't really much of a challenge.
"4th is good don't get me wrong." Really?? Well thanks for your appreciation. Very opinionated statements!!
Since when was anything on this board not an opinion? Are we talking facts here? If that's the case, the fact is that the kid is smarter than the the 396 kids in the building. That's a great accomplishment for him.
Fact: Catholic School Education is not very challenging
Fact: The kid plays football, therefore he got into TEP.
Fact: High School sports are ruining the attitudes and boosting the egos of it's participants.
Fact: Most of these kids will not play in the NFL.
Fact: When they reach a decent college program, they will get coddled much like they did at a catholic or charter school, which would in turn create more issues for future success (we are talking the real world here not football)
I don't have an issue with any of these schools. I do have an issue with anyone who is involved with allowing sports to be the driving force for where these kids attend school.
What schools are challenging ?4th is good don't get me wrong. Great for the kid. But 4th out of how many? 400? Catholic Education isn't really much of a challenge.
Paul that post was very opinionated!
Public is by far more challenging than a Catholic school.
Fact.
Fact:I'm a retired educator from the public school system. I have taught at 4 public schools throughout my tenure as well as being an administrator.
Currently, I am working as a Catholic school teacher in the Philly area. For the last 3 years I have had the chance to compare the two through a teachers eyes. I also experienced both as a student.
Public school is held to a higher standard. The state requires each school to follow the PA and National Standards of education. Data is collected to determine the amount of aid a school may get from the state. Teachers are observed routinely and are assessed based off of student accomplishment (DATA).
As long as a kid is paying tuition at a catholic school, the school is going to make it near impossible for them to fail out. I have seen students, who play a sport, do absolutely nothing in class that move on to the next grade. This would never happen at a public school.
It's a fact.

I ehar you DId you check EasternFootball? I'm sure there re moreI'm sure Tep would have no problem scheduling any team in the area, nobody wants to play them.

I would like a Tep vs. any of the North Jersey Catholic League teams or DeMatha . I believe those would be very competitive contests. The N, Jersey group always seem to be looking for a game.I ehar you DId you check EasternFootball? I'm sure there re more
I hear you. Have they tried getting out of this area where more than a few teams actually have a pair....knowing they stand a good chance of losing? Try the Eastern Football site that used to show open weeks-teams (probably done that) and the top programs in D3 and D7.
Florida teams are often looking for games, especially the big boys but also others looking to make a name. Some offer travel-cash assistance, a far cry from those wussing out of tough comp. Imagine that!
This argument over which is better is just asinine between you guys. Sure PA as a whole received that grade but some of the suburban public schools of Philly are the best in the country so throwing them in there with all PUBLIC schools is unfair. Some catholic schools are outstanding too, but some absolutely suck. It's a pissing match that neither side will win, but by all means continue to piss.
I'm sure money here would be an issue. I know they played Trinty in Kentucky as well in Ohio, but not sure how they financed it.I ehar you DId you check EasternFootball? I'm sure there re more
