Sports school only? What rock do you live under? Minnehaha is best known as an academic powerhouse. Their students are competing for spots in elite colleges and universities. Sports is a nice side gig for Minnehaha Academy.
Is that actually true, though? At least, any more than any of the other private/prep schools in the metro?
I really don't care about academics. And let's take a look see at their basketball team once, I bet they are all-world scholars.
I bet they are much better than you imply. I bet their ACT scores (just for athletes) is better than most public school averages by at least 5 points. (HS average in MN is somewhere around 17-19 on the ACT.)I really don't care about academics. And let's take a look see at their basketball team once, I bet they are all-world scholars.
Garbage. Just like Hopkins. No reason for them to be in the MSHSL. At the very worst put them in the top class and see how they do. It's not fair to the rest of the kids in their class.
I would assume you are pretty butthurt about school/kids/coaches you know not having the success those guys do. Member how you said Suggs shouldn't bring things up, move on, and have some class? I would suggest you do the same instead of ridiculing high schoolers lol.I really don't care about academics.

You made me laugh with that one! 
I wouldn’t necessarily consider them as an academic powerhouse. It’s where you go if you can’t get into Blake or Breck. SPA is Minnehaha’s St. Paul counterpart with a hint of ROTC.
Most of the kids parents are paying their way. They want excellence for their children in all areas of their education. I don't blame parents for wanting the best for their kids. Go to Chicago. Parents are desperate to get their kids into private schools where they can get a competitive education rather than have their kids at a glorified day care center called Chicago Public Schools.
. It happens. All kinds of things happen to every program. The white supremacist march on Charlottsville from out of towners cost UVA two surefire recruits, both high quality shooters. That is in full negative effect on how poor UVA is right now. No worries, just like them it opens up new opportunities for others in following classes. It costs short term wins but in the long run often works better as your younger players develop more through difficult circumstance and with potentially better recruits in the following classes that you get playing time to sell.
Fun fact, I believe Breck now is the former location of the public high school in the old Golden Valley district, that no longer exists and merged with Hopkins.
Where do Benilde, Holy Angels, and St Thomas Military fit in? Great sports schools, that's for sure. Or maybe the former two are just good hockey schools? In that case, I suppose you could put Hill-Murray in there too.
Ah, right. That leads me of course to Totino, who had to be dragged up into the big boys kicking and screaming.
Of course they won't have the success! Let's combine 10- 2A schools or even the whole southern half of the state and pick the best 10 to compete against them. Then they'd have a chance. It ain't right and you know it.
So you don't like that Minnehaha is good and that's why you are upset about Suggs? Still waiting for anything that resembles a logical thought
Not wrong on what? His own personal opinion. Do you know how an opinion works? Amir going pro is patinos biggest failure? What does he have to do with him going pro? Little to nothing.
The obvious, and correct in my opinion, idea being expressed is that it is absolutely unfair and frankly ridiculous to suggest that Minnehaha should be in the same class as rural farm town public schools, simply based on enrollment size.
