Not a big fan of tanking and it sends the wrong message to kids. If you are one of the 13 best for a 13 man roster, you should be on it whether you are a soph or a senior. HS shouldn't be about coaches trying to catch their own glory every 3-4 years. It should be about the kids and this sends the wrong message. I think if kids are about even in talent it is fine to go younger, all things being equal.
