I didn't blame him, I said it wasn't his fault. It was his dad's and the school's.

Seth Skogen the leader and biggest part of their team. He apparently played while ineligeable. While he didn't do anything to make himself ineligable, his own dad and/or the school apparently did.

I agree. I admit I don't know squat about the TSSAA rules. But this should be common sense. And Caleb Marcum not knowing then calling TSSAA and said someone there told him it was okay but he didn't know who told him that? For one, I would err on the cautious side as not to get the school and my athletic program in trouble and have a bad name. And secondly, I would think the whole situation whether it was legal by TSSAA rules or not was kind of fishy and not do this kind of stuff. I would hold my program and my school to a higher standard since it's a Christian school. I would have told him when they transfer then they could practice, and I would have had questions about how they got there. But maybe that's just me. Looks like Marcum being an inexperienced first time AD is really going to bite them.

Basketball or football?

I think you're right. And I think now anytime a kid transfers to a private school there's going to be a ton more suspicion hanging over the kid and the school.

What are you saying? Wait for the facts before rushing to judgment? That's no fun! ARRRGHH GET EM!

Yeah you're right, that is a big part of the problem. Some people on here used to have the names like "IH8TNTemple".

Great. I wasn't even trying to dog the kid. I didn't even realize that it came across that way until I reread it. It wasn't my intention to be so hard on this unnamed player. I was just typing that in an off the cuff way. I didn't think anyone would take what I said so seriously. My apologies to anyone offended.

I was obviously joking with this line " Mad about Temple drumming them in the State Finals and wanted to help take them down? haha..but seriously". I see that it came across like I was being hard on the kid, that wasn't my intention. That should be reserved for the coach, if it happened. And I'm not condoning practicing with another/joining another team I'm just saying; if you know it's wrong and I find it hard to believe that he didn't, then it's not smart to bring that Temple bag to school at CSAS. To simplify: 1. If this happened this is pretty bad stuff, not something like a clerical error. 2. I think the coach had to know it was wrong. 3. I think the players would have to know that's wrong to do. 4. and if you do know it's wrong and go to school with another school's bag that isn't bright. 5. I was just wondering if these kids were recruited why would they want to go to Temple? There seemed to be a semi rivalry there(in basketball anyway) and you wouldn't want to. And also from and education standpoint, parents camp out to get into CSAS and it's free. What exactly did I say that you had a problem with? Or are you going to just say "It's stupid."

I love how America works now. It's the Oprah/Nancy Grace style of justice. And did Dr. Bouler get compared to Bill Clinton and Hitler. haha Good grief. Anyway let's continue with the speculation(not facts): To think part of this has to do with Temple being too cheap/lazy/lackadaisical. They couldn't even write Kevin Skogen a check to pay for his coaching services(around $3,000 something instead of $15,000) and have him turn around and write a check for Seth's tuition. And I believe Kevin when he says that. But why did he let that situation continue? Or did he keep getting put off? And as insinuated?..., if he intentionally brought that to light what were his motives? Frustrated with the incompetence? To have his State Title stripped? His region championship in football stripped? Why don't the people insinuating/acting like they know something just say it? Is there some Omerta on here? Someone afraid they're going to be sued for something said on the internet? The "rats" sure have jumped ship: Wadley, Skogen, Coach Templeton, Josh Templeton. Probably a bigger syptom of Temple as a whole. The school is too cheap to pay or anything/anybody(get good people to take peanuts in the name of service to God) and overall on the decline. Or perhaps some of them knew some of the issues that were going to come to light sooner or later? I wonder about Joey at McCallie. How could the Skogen's afford to pay for that and yet want compensation at TTA? Did he get some kind of "needs" scholarship at McCallie? And was there some realtionship/agreement with that and Wadley? The kids from CSAS being at practice for Temple while in CSAS is bad stuff. How could a coach not know that was wrong? I can't believe that at all. And how stupid is that kid, for bringing that bag to class and then answering like that? How could he know that being at one school and practicing at another wasn't wrong. And not be smart enough to be quiet about it? Mad about Temple drumming them in the State Finals and wanted to help take them down? haha..but seriously It's hard for me to imagine someone being that stupid. I'm just curious as to why anyone from CSAS would want to go to Temple, having played against them. I know it's the football team but still. Especailly their parents, trading a great education to go to Temple.

I think Josh would be a great choice too, but I've heard the same thing about him and his dad.

That's what I was thinking as well.

It's Jeremy Sexton's team for sure. That kid is good and you could tell when he was a freshman he was something special. Maybe they'll run the offense through him like they did with Caleb. Where is Coach Skogen going? Covenant? And whatever happened to Joey Skogen?

This award is as pointless worrying about as worrying about what gomab thinks about a player.
