Clarksville 2015

[pilgrim]

There is about to be some pretty significant news to be release about Clarksville that will impact most of district 7.

 

Most of the regulars on here know who's who.

 

So I would ask, Out of Respect for the players, that you help me police up all those who would pop up, just to tear down.

 

I have all the facts and I am more than willing to share once the news is released to the team.

Heard rumblings.. If true sucks for the kids. Coaches as well. I could be misinformed though

My question is some school was sitting on this info and waited until this time to try and punish Clarksville..

 

I still don't understand how it is a coaches fault that a kid enrolled. Shouldn't school officials verify that? Why does that responsibility fall on the coaches?

There were no other schools involved. The initial report seemed to come from another family member. 

 

The students initial enrollment seemed all in order. Without to much speculation, I believe that some domestic issues may be involved, along with parents just trying to get their kids in what they deemed to be a better school.

This does really stink for the Seniors.

 

I believe the coach will use this as a good life lesson for these young men. 

[sheppy]

Wondered why this young man didn't play last night? 

[RustyPorter]

Did he have to transfer to another montgomery co school?

[MSURacer]

Sucks for all involved. I hate it for all the players, especially the seniors who've had to work VERY hard to get where they are. 

[FearedEagle]

Dang man I hate to hear that. Goodluck moving forward!

Pilgrim,

I thought Montgomery County was open enrollment?! Does this mean the young man in question was living outside of Montgomery County? I hate it for the kids and fans.
