Most private schools have enormous tuition bills ... you have to recruit to fill the enrollment targets.

Recruiting does not always equate to financially subsidizing a student's enrollment costs.

Back in the day when Lincoln SE was really good at FB and winning titles all the time it was amazing how you would see a good RB or WR playing Freshman or Sophomore ball at Lincoln High or East and then magically appear at SE for their JR year. ;)
I don't remember that, at least during the Solich years. Must have been the Mizerski years, didn't think you could transfer in the 70s.
 



Have you ever work for, coached at or in any way been affiliated with a private school or are you one of those who want to blame "private school recruiting" as the reason for athletic results?

Private schools collectively operate on extremely tight budgets. They pay their teachers and support staff regularly at rates significantly less than their peers at public schools. Private schools do not have the luxury of tax payer referendums to subsidize infrastructure expansion. They have to sell themselves to their constituencies and yes recruit students. They do have fewer at-risk and disabled students as the resources are simply not there to support their needs. There are a handful of schools that have athletic success (Prep, Marian, Skutt) because of their size, infrastructure, enrollment and history(much like Westside, Lincoln SE, Millard West) but there are 3+ times as many that have never had anywhere near the success.

Private schools do have financial aid but that is born out of necessity to attract and retain students who otherwise could not afford a $10k cost of attendance.

Some people just need excuses.
