    Really.. I have talked to many high school coaches, players and college coaches about this subject. (by the way, if you have not guessed it... I'M A HIGH SCHOOL COACH - Football and Baseball). I have had several Big D1 players that went to Baylor, Texas, Texas  A&M, UH, and LSU tell me their pitch counts... What they were allowed to throw. How long they had to sit till next outing. All of these were in writing by their college pitching coach.  Even seen a kid this year NOT Allowed to pitch in the First round of playoffs cause his pitching coach from LSU told him not to cause of how many he had thrown the week before. They keep tabs on kids all the time.  Kids stay in contact with their college coaches all year.  

    I have Coached in Local and State ALL-Star football and baseball games. I have been on selection committees. I can tell you for a fact, a invite is sent out to all state players. Most Big College players do not accept the invite. 

    Damn!... With all that talent you must be one of the winningest coaches in high school sports.  Oh, and congrats on being A HIGH SCHOOL COACH!

    "Several" out of the how many thousands that go play the next level?!?

    No doubt they spend a lot of time training and competing but cheerleading would not exist without football. Even the schools that don’t have football and still have cheerleading are supported institutionally by the schools that do have football. Cheerleading is part of the “football game day experience”

    100%... Wanting to be a cheerleader starts at an early age... Little league football.  Not little league baseball or little dribblers.

    Not that I'm disagreeing with you, but drill team and cheerleaders have competitions too - many of them - and camp.

    You are 100% correct, but I think wanting to be a cheerleader or drill team member is more about being on the sidelines on Friday nights than to compete in competitions.... I may wrong... IDK. Never was a cheerleader or drill team member lol.

    Football is king I admit. If it wasn’t for the Tax payer these multimillion dollar stadium’s would not exist, these huge salaries would not exist. If everyone will vote for the school voucher program this would put a stop to a lot of the excessive spending, because when the 75% find greener pastures the 25% will be wondering what happened.

    As long as little Timmy or whoever gets to run into that field on Friday nights, the 25% isn't going anywhere.  If football folded... no more cheerleaders, drill teams, band would surlily dwindle.  I say that cause outside of football the cheerleaders may cheer at a few basketball games, same goes for the drill team, bands I believe do a little more like competitions.

    ALL SPORTS LOSE MONEY!!!

    From your point of view other kids dreams don't matter... OK... Your opinion. 

    Name one Texas high school sport that is bigger than football?!?!  I'll wait....  If it wasn't for football programs, how many other sports would survive?!?!?!?

    Happens all the time.. College coaches limiting their pitch counts in high school. My suggestion is to talk to some high school coaches and see what they are told by their players.. 

    As for football Sr. all star football games all you have to do is look at local and state all star games.... you really think the best players in the state of TEXAS are going to small colleges like SFA, McNeese, Lamar and etc... You will rarely see any SEC, Pac 10, Big 12 kids there.. why their school does not want them playing.

    All the time huh... I can get on the phone with 7 kids that all went on to play college baseball.  DI, DII, and Juco.  Out of the 7 kids, 6 pitched and NEVER once did a coach limit their pitch count.  All within the past 2 years.

    "School do not want them playing" have you ever watched the UA All American football game or the US Army football game?!?!  EVERY top high school football player in the country is there...PLAYING 🤦‍♂️

    With NIL and the transfer portal, more kids are willing to go play at smaller schools.  Why...???  Playing time and they know the following year they can transfer to a bigger, better school.

    Ex... local football standout...3 star skilled position player (RB, WR, CB,) on the cusp of being a 4 star.  Has offers from 3 D1 power 5 schools and 9 offers from non-power 5 schools.  The 3 power 5 all say the same thing... come in, develop, redshirt, and in a year or two you might be starting.  The 9 non-power 5 say this.... You'll be competing day 1 for a starting position.  A vast majority of kids are going to say yes to being able to compete for a starting position and playing time day 1 because they know after 1 good year they'll be able to hit the portal and move to one of the D1 power 5 schools.  Jared Verse is a good example.... Played at Albany.  Had a good season.  Transferred to Florida St. Top 20 NFL draft pick.

    Less than 25% of the kids in High School play Football, so according to your logic, we force the remaining 75% to do something that hinders their development, Basketball, Baseball, Softball, Golf, Tennis, Swimming all of which have very different needs. Makes sense to me lol.

    Football is still the breadwinner.  Football brings in more money than all the other sports combined.  Football 1st... all other sports 2nd.

    The battle over multi sport athletes has been fought forever.....This didn't  start 3 weeks ago. Football is one of the few sports that is not played year round. It simply cannot be, too physical and taxing. It requires an offseason of strength training, and conditioning to prepare for a10 to 15 game grind. Coach Rich is installing everything from scratch. A whole new Offense and Defense, from cadence to cleats. And football starts in August. Any AD worth his salt would push his agenda......And as for the social media assault, what's the reason for that? Ill wait........hmmmmmmmmm

    Ohhhh I know!!!!  For the social media poster to come out and post what was posted... the kid is one that he will be able to add to his resume.  Especially is the kid has D1 talent.

    This applies to mainly pitchers, once you get to a certain pitch count or innings thrown they will shut you down. In the Juco level and below for the most part they don’t care.

    I know who it applies to, but I have not heard of or seen a college put any regulations on anyone still playing high school and I've been around the game for a good while.  Met with many recruiters and HC and those were never talked about.  Again, I have one playing college baseball.

    College Coaches in most sports protect their athletes (signed recruits) even in high school.

    College Coaches have gotten so protective about their baseball recruits that that signed in Nov. that they put them on mandatory pitch counts. If their high school coach breaks their pitch count they are telling the kids to quit the high school baseball team. 

    Also happens in Football. Once they sign a letter of commitment, especially at D1 schools, they tell those kids to NOT PLAY in any all-star games in summer.

    Hmm thats news to me and I have one currently playing college baseball.  

    Yet, there are hundreds of high school football players that play in the UA football game and the U.S. Army bowl

    Yes they do but how many play both sports at the college level. Most coaches push 1 or the other because it takes away from both. I would say it is rare for athletes to play multiple sports past High School, not impossible. If you have a Heart problem you see a specialist not your local MD. 

    A lot more than you think. Keon Coleman, Jameis Winston, Russell Wilson, Kyler Murray... and I could go on and on.

    Which SETX school participates in Fall baseball? Kids in SETX play Fall ball on their own but the only "Fall ball" the schools are playing is football. 

    Correct, fall BASEball is on their own.  No coaches.  3, 4 years ago.... Vidor, Ned, PNG, OF all had fall BASEball teams.

    ADs don't allow them to do school baseball drills in the middle of football season, though.  so the double standard is still there.

    Would you rather have multi-sport athletes doing drills during school that are being ran/controlled by coaches or have kids playing fall ball with little to no supervision?!?!?

    there won't be a scheduling problem... cause AD's don't allow them to play.. its a nice double standard they like to use.

    "AD's don't allow them to play"  that's false.  I've watched many of fall ball games and I can name 3 or 4 SETX teams that had football players on the team.
