The guy running it the HC took a job as HC at a real high school. One of the assistants was supposed to take over but I think it fell apart. They canceled from the Ohio games. Haven't heard anything from them since. Kids always get left holding the bag when these things fall apart or when the guy running it takes a job and leaves. Just like the Coach from Friendship Collegiate Abdul-Rahim when he left for Alabama, then Maryland, then UMASS, now BC. They use these projects as a stepping stone many of them. https://richmond.com/sports/high-school/former-life-christian-football-coach-charles-scott-takes-helm-at-hidden-gem-huguenot-high/article_b0dec2dc-92ea-11ed-aa83-7f3ee7fbf612.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly Pastor Fitzgerald wouldn't do anything against the rules...🙏😇 Really LCA is basically an independent and can do what they want. Coach Scott would be breaking the VHSL rules already but he's been doing that since the Central VA Hurricanes rec days..allegedly..lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During dead periods, no coach- ing, observing or contact between a coach(s) or player(s) may occur in the VHSL member school sponsored athletic team or activity involved. There may be no VHSL member school sponsored practice, open facilities, weight training/conditioning, out of season league(s) or member school sponsored clinics/camps. Outside of dead periods, all VHSL member school sponsored activities may occur on any day except Sundays. Team vs. team competition may occur only in camps or leagues.

OldTerrapin Posted March 24, 2023 Report Share Posted March 24, 2023 Regarding LCA they are basically in the same boat as SFA. The school is members of the VISAA (Virginia Independent Schools Athletic Association) but the football team is not eligible to play VISAA teams or in the VISAA playoffs. Unlike the MIAA the VISAA are associate members of NFHS. So technically by LCA using the VISAA proxy membership to schedule games they are technically supposed to follow the VISAA rules which we know they do not just like SFA doesn't follow MIAA rules. SFA although is taking it a step further and holding spring practice and a spring game which isn't allowed by any Maryland, PA, VA, DE or NJ athletic association.

As stated in the rules that OldTerrapin posted, VHSL allows it but it has to be part of a league or camp/tournament, can't be a standalone game. VHSL eliminated most of their offseason practice restrictions in 2011, there was a push from smaller schools to have them reinstated a few years ago but it failed. A lot of school systems have their own more restrictive rules. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MA Fan Posted May 13, 2023 Report Share Posted May 13, 2023 LCA has picked up a couple twitter commits from out of state recently. If the kids announce in May of their senior year that they're "reclassifying to the class of 2024" you're not a postgrad team 😃 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Severino Posted June 29, 2023 Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 The Top 2 scam schools this year are the Pro Development Institute campuses in Urbana, OH and Cocoa, FL. They claim to be boarding schools offering football, soccer, basketball and baseball. Somebody paid $8.5 million for an old abandoned rural college campus in Ohio and it's still empty.

Severino Posted June 29, 2023 Report Share Posted June 29, 2023 Here's the Pro Development Institute campus in Cocoa, FL. Looks like a football powerhouse! Apparently it's not PDI, it's still the Launch Pad Sports Complex. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they can merge with the cultists at Clearwater Academy to complete the scam both on and off the field. Didn’t GSB post several “baller alerts” over the past couple years about supposed D-1 recruits at LCA? Weird, huh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
