HAHA Oh yes. Again this is only a problem for TCA when who's in front of them dominates them.

*"in the eyes of the TSSAA"* Also, might want to sit back and watch the fireworks... One of the charter members of the TSSAA was Baylor, a boarding school. I bet they have heavy influence on what goes on.

I think this is evident that the independent school market is really looking for quality education as well as quality extracurricular offering. Obviously Baylor Wresting, Baylor Football, McCallie Football, and Webb Girls' Basketball are doing that an attracting top tier young men and women to their schools. Maybe TCA and others ought to step up their offerings.

I just checked Webb's unapproved website. It appears they do play a "national schedule"... La Jolla, Montverde, IMG, Hoover, LaLumiere, McDonough, Sidwell Friends, Crestwood Prep, Lake Highland Prep, DME, etc all top 25 national powers in girls basketball over the last two years.

Hey Stan, Your knowledge of the rules and boarding situations, like your broadcasts, have a lot to be desired. Stan is just out here "Stanning" for TCA. St. Andrews Suwannee has nearly a roster FULL of international players, but they are WINLESS on the year. Seems that people only care about boarding when the teams are good. I believe in Webb's case half the roster is local residence of TN and half are boarders from out of state and even out of the country. Boarding is a change of residence in the eyes of the TSSAA... Much cheaper for an out of country student and family to move to Knoxville and play at any local city/county school, rather than to pay boarding tuition at Baylor or Webb. Also, you realize that boarding schools have to follow the same rules as other private schools. 25 mile rule, bonafide change of residence etc... It just happens that if a student MOVES to TN to enroll at one of the boarding schools that is the BONAFIDE CHANGE OF RESIDENCE!
