I fail to see where Archbishop Murphy has an advantage in recruiting.  They don't give athletic scholarships and the tuition is $15,000 a year.  If you aren't Catholic, it is $18,000 a year.  Nor do they provide bus service to the corner of your block.  For that matter, while your kid is going to Archbishop Murphy, and you are paying both for his tuition and for his transportation, you are still paying taxes to provide tuition-free education and bus services to the kids in your local public schools.

I think the schools that forfeited acted disgracefully, teaching their kids the wrong lessons.  Like if something looks challenging, maybe you ought to just quit.  And that it really doesn't matter that you had an AGREEMENT to play that game, and that your own fans were supporting you based upon that AGREED upon schedule, you can just shirk those actual and implied contracts if you want to.

Yeah, a great lesson for generation snowflake; When the going gets tough, give up.
