Being enrolled and moving are two different things.   Most SCS schools will enroll students without regard for where they live because they have open enrollment or are optional schools.   Once you have an athletic record with a state organization, there must be a change in residence, custody change, or parental job change for a student to be ruled eligible.  Ryan is a good kid.  He will be successful anywhere.

 

East is an optional school. There is no such thing as open enrollment in Shelby County. 

I've heard his grades might be an issue for his eligibility.

East is ridiculous. I am glad they lay up to 3A. If I am in 3A and a coach that really wants to win a state title I am long for a job in 2A. As long as East is doing what they are doing, no other school has a chance!

East lost TJ Moss and Dude McCollum to transfer. Moss to Findlay and McCollum to Tennessee Prep. Boyce being ineligible stinks because he would have added a lot

Gaining Wiseman is a huge gain.

They'll be the best team in Tennessee and they will be good on a National level but part of me says they won't be as good as last year.

How is Boyce ineligible?

From what I heard and understand it is the new "coaching link" rule that went into play this year.

I've heard grades and the above as possible reasons. This is just what I've heard. We'll know the first day of practice.

But Penny doesn't coach neither his AAU team, he is the sponsor. That's what it says on paper

I don't know about that. I just heard that's what was.

This is how they define the link.

If a student with an athletic record transfers to a new school where an “athletic coaching link” existed in the past 12 months, that student is ineligible for 12 months at all levels in the specific sports where a linkage was present. Links may include (1) attendance at an individual camp (and then transferring); (2) playing on non-school (independent) teams (and then transferring to that coach’s school); (3) transferring into a school where a former coach has been hired; and (4) transferring to a school where a former or current personal trainer or strength and conditioning coach is employed. This rule does not apply if the student moves to his/her new schools after completion of the highest ending grade at his/her previous school.

Not that I know or have any knowledge, but the Wiseman one would really surprise me. His home school Ensworth has been continually promoting all of his accomplishments all summer on their IG account. Not many leave Ensworth either. Not saying it isn't happening or hasn't already happened. I don't know but I certainly would be very very surprised. 

Surprise

TSSAA's ruling on this is going to be very interesting. (2) playing on non-school (independent) teams (and then transferring to that coach's school) does not clearly say the high school coach has to be the independent coach? Could being a member of the independent teams  organization count? If so there are a few other high school coaches that are members of other travel basketball organizations in Tennessee. This could get interesting.

    • From my understanding, Jay Graham pretty much took over HC responsibilities in that game, so you can thank him. Cute Andy didn’t need help, though. Cute Andy could’ve beaten us without any assistant coaches.
    • Tax payer dollars are paid for certified teachers to "teach" and then coach. The primary job is to teach.  There are some district that ay awesome supplements and others that don't. Dyersburg and Dyer County are pretty close if I remember correctly. I would imagine that Football and basketball are above $10,000 now.  I've heard that Milan is $20,000 for boys basketball. I would imagine that football is more than that in Milan.  Collierville has camps that coaches get paid extra for. 3 camps a year, 100 kids a camp, $30,000 right there.  There are places like Memphis-Shelby County schools where the supplements are garbage even for the head coaches. I made less than $3,000 as the head assistant at Germantown in 2015 when we were 26-4 and one of the best teams in the Southeast. As a head middle school coach next year I will make between $4-5,000 at a municipal in Shelby County.  Coaches should be compensated for the jobs that are required but lets keep in mind that they are educators first.  It's pretty frustrating to other teachers that work their tale off teaching 6-7 classes a day to watch someone roam campus, not teach (or have very minimal responsibilities), and get paid the same (more with supplements) as a person who has the some years of experience or sometimes less. 
    • This will get coaches leaving the profession very quickly if this kid wins this case. This is absurd...
