For sure, but very few stay in the public schools. Most go prep.
For a city with 1.1 million kids, NYC should be churning out way more talent than it does.
I really wish people up here gave a **** about public high school sports. Most don't.
One of my colleagues coaches HSFB out in Queens. He said Gus was the best player he ever coached against. Now NYC aint **** in football, but that's still pretty high praise coming from a coach with as much skin in the game as he has.
Proud of him...
