Be careful what you wish for Public Schools. If the PIAA separates public and private it doesn't change charters and it will allow Privates to openly recruit. Just like they do in states all over the country. The best Athletes will be legally recruited to go to private schools every single year. BG BM would be even more powerful no doubt.

They both went to Catholic grade school, it's not like they were brought in from some far away land. 
Crimson wasnt saying they did just remember them and Raven said something about a Muhammed i thought maybe he got them mixed up i should have clarified that sry.

Whatever way you want to put it they arent playing by the same rules as most public schools do. That isnt right
This is completely false there was nobody that started on that team that didn't come through the parochial schools.  I can also guarantee that BG isn't searching for athletes

I mean in their Hudl highlights they were wearing Altoona uniforms before last year, so they did go to Altoona at some point before last season.

if you had read konjos comment he was talking about the first state championship team and that's what I was referring to.  so don't jump to conclusions

I did read it, he didn't say they were on that team, he said his relative was on the first championship team and that "they have had plenty plenty of Altoona linemen transfer over THE PAST FEW YEARS"

they way I take konjos comment is that he had a relative who were on that first state championship team who said we had lineman from Altoona.  While Ramsey was on that team he never played for Altoona high he played junior high ball

I will totally agree the 2014 team was 100% homegrown talent. But since then they have had at least one kid here and there that wasn't originally a BG kid.

The 2014 Altoona team was 3-4 TDs better than the 2014 BG team.
