So is South Pointe playing Indian Land??? How are they getting to scrimmage with pads so early??? Must just be a Fan meet and greet or something.

I suspect they will not be scrimmaging against other schools, it will be a "joint practice" like that one planned in Spartanburg.

Multiple schools practicing in a single location, to allow college scouts to see a lot of kids at one time.

There are no scrimmages/playing against another school, just practicing in the same area/complex.

College coaches are extremely limited now by the NCAA in the number of days they can be on HS campuses, so instead of picking between a kid at SP and a kid at NW to watch practice, those 2 kids will be in the same complex practicing with their respective teams

I.E. the college coach can see both with only 1 day of a visits used. And the more schools at the same location, the more kids a coach can see in person. If I remember correctly, the NCAA set the spring limit to 8 days.

I have heard that Georgia, Florida, and Oklahoma all have Springtime scrimmages against other High School teams, I wonder why South Carolina doesn’t look into doing it also.Yeah, it seems to me that these States have a edge on everyone else, especially Georgia and Florida, maybe these spring scrimmage games against other High Schools is giving them a edge.

Indian Land and RH will be there if that’s what your really asking..who knows maybe RH will return to a premier again under the new regime like they were under Jim Ringer..Indian Land has gotten a lot better lately while moving up in classification every realignment..My sister lives in IL and I can’t believe the growth there..they just may be a good coach away from being very good..
