CBA Football

Who did TD take over from. Pat Murphy who was a helluva of college coach at ASU and ND and a CBA grad. If CBA played based on enrollment levels they would have won ever Sectional title at the Class C and B level. They have the best coaching, facilties and academics in the state. They can fundraise like nobody else. It's all sports men and woman - hell one of the best woman's bowlers is from Fulton and I don't belief she got a NIL package.

Pat Murphy never coached at CBA - he was a CBA grad though just like Tom Dotterer who did coach for decades there.

Like SU, CBA graduates are loyal as is their administration, so many graduates who went to the school, go back often to coach. Their head basketball coach is also a CBA graduate. Their basketball team had many great runs too but haven’t excelled in a while. Most schools have their up and down eras in sports. Look at West Genessee and the Messier Lacrosse era - parents want their kids to succeed and whether public or private they will try to make what they think is their best choice. My oldest 2 went to the local public school with some athletes who played despite living in another district, They all pay taxes and the parents at CBA are still paying school taxes supporting their local school district. We change attitudes about “owning” students when they hit college. By the way I never went to CBA and neither did anyone in my family - just in case.

In addition NIL for high school students is legal in NYS.

Could Central New York high school athletes be at risk of eligibility violations linked to NIL?

Over 2,500 student-athletes from Section III schools are registered with NIL Club. Just being registered is not a violation of state eligibility rules.

How do kids in low-income circumstances afford tuition?

There is endowed money for kids in need. A very large percentage of CBA students receive tuition assistance, and most of them are not football players, nor athletes at all.

21-20 and they blocked a CNS 35 yard FG attempt on the last play. I'd say they were challenged and narrowly escaped.

They needed to be challenged before sectionals and, perhaps, state playoffs. Regular season blowouts do not prepare a team for a championship run.
