TSSAA to privates...keep recruiting!

[bobcatfan#1]

The TSSAA voted 5-4 to not split so now the privates can just keep on recruiting and keep having an unfair advantage. The public schools need to start their our athletic association!

If you pay any attention to the TSSAA, you would have seen where Childress announced that the last 8 recruiting violations were committed by public schools.  I know that's hard for pubs to wrap their head around that when it doesn't conform to a good story.  You're backwoods opinion (not fact) are way off base.

lazy and stupid people whine.

That is because the privates can recruit anyone they want without any rules, while the public schools have very strict rules.

Ok Mr. 2 posts, come back when you have a slight understanding of the rules....the TSSAA rules, not the ones you've made up in your head.

one rule for privates...get anyone in the state or country you want. Publics get their home grown kids.

For me, comments attributed to Childress have been very disappointing throughout the entire process since he frames them in a way that does not take proper responsibility and deflects from the real issue.  Not hard to see through at all.  Statements like "need facts, can't act on unsubstantiated statements from anonymous sources" like that is the only type of information the TSSAA has received and then stating "last 8 proven recruiting violations were by public schools" only displays how unwilling and out of touch the organization and its leader are in dealing with it.

Anyone who thought the split would happen hasn't been paying attention to how the T$$AA operates. They will not allow it to happen strictly due to self preservation from a monetary standpoint. Level playing field and listening to the opinions of the vast majority of constituents is of zero concern to Mr Childress and his cronies. This has been much ado about nothing bc it was never going to happen, but now the organization can further the status quo by saying that they looked into the split thoroughly and voted on it. What a joke! Give the 5A & 6A schools a dose of this mess for a few years and see what happens. The small publics are playing for 2nd in most of the big sports now. I see quotes from a number of representatives of private schools, but none from the few that are causing the uproar. Any word from CPA? They must be too busy scouring the national aau circuit to find their next out of state stud to bring in for hoops to comment.

Word from CPA AD was they were where they could best compete! This was the last chance for there to ever be a split, now that the privates have 3 to start every meeting.

. I think if you would open up that little mind and ask around you would find that most privates want a split also. The only problem was they would not let them vote. Now maybe the privates on board can accomplish what a full public could not.

CPA sent out a letter the day of the vote saying they had no say in the decision, but "we are accountable for our approach moving forward."  It's too bad they haven't held themselves accountable already, at least in regards to the BB team.  Maybe the vote wouldn't have taken place....

 

Drew's twitter comment that day was:   In the end, what your own troops do is more important than who they are marching against. -Don Meyer

 

Kind of sounds to me like he plans to keep doing what he's been doing, regardless of where they play.
