But I bet they throw the crap...oh I mean Carp back in. /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

I would say, to get away from Flatt. If what I read on another post is true, Eagleville's principal wants Flatt for the head job. She better watch what she wishes for, because it could blow up in her face.

WHAT! I only get on this site about once a month and find out all kinds of interesting things. First, I read where Flatt is thinking about getting back into coaching. And now you say that the principal's pick has been in the "background" all season. I guess by that you mean Flatt. What is this principals name? What is the AD's name? Didn't Flatt retire from Brentwood Academy? I'm sure he was knocking down the big bucks, so why would he go to Eagleville to begin with, if he really "wanted" to retire. Do they (Eagleville and Oakland) really want to open a new can of worms?

I will never understand how a team (or several in this case) can make the playoffs with losing records. The TSSAA needs to knock down the playoff rounds, back to three, like in the good ole days. If it is money they want, up the price of admission a couple of bucks. Yes, I know it is already expensive, but think how much the TSSAA would save in travel expenses for these teams. They would still make a bundle.

It blows my mind what parents will do to get their child in the right school. I have heard cases where the parents will drop their child off at a bus stop for a certain school, and the school only finds out because someone in the neighborhood calls and spills the beans. This doesn't just happen for athletics. I guess all football coaches, principals, and teachers should start making home visits. I hate this whole thing for the kids, parents and coaches that do the right thing.

Will BA have to finish out their probationary period, that was put on hold, when they went to court?

I don't know exactly when it was added, but I read it in the TSSAA handbook for the 2005/2006 school year, which was two school years ago.

CBHS vs ECS Who won this game?

I find this very interesting! "BA would support strict but clearly defined and regulated recruiting rules."

I don't believe they were contracts, they were enrollment forms. And like Itoldyouso said, they paid a nonrefundable fee. I guess this was to hold their spot, but they didn't have to make a decision until after the school year was complete. Now, what would have happened, if said student showed up at BA and took part with the football team in spring practice, but then decided that he didn't like BA and no longer wanted to attend in the fall. Would he have been able to go to his zoned school and not be penalized?

I read the entire SC case that was posted on "The Tennesseans's" website. To me it sounded pro - TSSAA. I had always thought that the letters were no big deal, but reading about it today, made me understand why the TSSAA punished BA. Question: If the SC rules in favor of the TSSAA, will BA have to serve the remainder of their penalty?

I find it interesting that Flatt would even consider another coaching position. I thought he was retiring. This leads me to believe that he was forced out at BA. Doesn't that speak volumes.

He will come back better then ever.

Good luck finding a private school that talks the talk and walks the walk. I know of a situation at a local private school where a player and his parent went in and told the coach that he was not going to play unless he got to play a certain position. Guess what, he plays in every game at "that" position while the player that played there last year sits the bench. And NO, this kid now playing the position is not better. At least in the public sector your child can get the shaft for free.

Would this be the Hoover coach?
