I'm ignorant enough so could someone enlighten me on this. I was told that the powers that be passed a rule where nobody but the coaches can work with the kids. So if you help you now have to be registered as a coach. First is this true and wouldn't that hurt the people it's supposed to be about.

I believe it's a CYA (cover your arse) issue. Similar to AAU and USA Wrestling. For example if a parent accuses someone working with their kids of committing a sex act, the TSSAA has done their due diligence because all coaches have been fingerprinted and had background checks. I don't believe there is a limit to the number of volunteer coaches that a school can have provided they are all registered. Of course most tournaments only 2 coaches in a corner.

Insurance and lawsuits, pretty much sums up the reasoning for this.

I figured as much. But I don't think it would stop anyone who would hurt a kid and if they would do it in a venue like wrestling then they'd do anything. Now if it is because of simple accidents while wrestling ( a lot of them are recent graduates from the program they are helping ) I can see that. It should be about the current students. Just seems like everything we do today we can't accept the other things that go with it. Nature of the beast Toughest sport there is.

    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
