If the claimed connections between RSL Academy and Utah Prep Academy are false, why doesn't he correct their website? I can't stand people who are responsible for false statements shirking responsibility. Regardless, it sounds as if the new school is just the old school rebranded. :(
you people are hilarious. I don't know everything about RAFA and DRA etc. However I am very tied into the basketball world in utah. When RSL basketball was shut down, the staff and players that were booted simply rebranded as a new program - Utah Prep. They ran out of the salt lake area i think for 1-2 years before recently moving to southern utah. I dont know how they got down there. but RSL claiming that there aren't any ties is weird. They were the same players and most of the coaches that were employed and built RSL basketball.
You claim to be "very tied into the basketball world in [U]tah." To substantiate this claim, however, we have only your comment, in triplicate, from a "Timmy J" account with no posts, no followers, no other interactions, andβthis one I loveβon a platform all about reading, not one subscription to a single author.
You seem less likely a well-connected Utah basketball person than a paid-but-amateurish reputation-management agentβthe kind the "troubled teen" industry employs.
In any event, that some of the former R.S.L. Academy basketball staffers may work at Utah Prep is not in controversy, above. As stated, e.g., "Utah Prep Academy may now employ former Real Salt Lake Basketball Academy staffers."
The controversy is that Utah Prep Academy claims Real Salt Lake as part of its pedigree and conspicuously omits Diamond Ranch Academy and "RAFA Academy" from the same. Its website states, as pictured, that "RSL Academy" is "now Utah Prep Academy."
According to Real Salt Lake, however, Real Salt Lake shut down its basketball school and never willingly associated with Utah Prep. In support of this claim, we have an on-the-record exchange with Real Salt Lake's senior communications director. And he has a full name, not just "Trey FG." His contact information is publicly available.
Reasonable persons would not construe R.S.L.'s claimed course of conduct as R.S.L. Academy becoming Utah Prep Academy. But they may construe it as (another) trademark violation from the same folks who brought the world Diamond Ranch Academy, RAFA Academy and, of course, three dead children.

Theβunreturnedβemail I sent Mr. Cheney asked four questions. The first two wereβ
1. Is Utah Prep Academy's website accurate?
2. If not, why not, and what, if anything, will be done to correct it?
