Coniglio Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 TFP Article You said it. Based on first glance of the article, Skogans look to be clear. Chastain however... dunno about that. I could see an interesting debate whether or not Skogans would be clear because of the tuition being paid for. He was being paid, but instead of receiving the money, and putting right back in Temple's hands in the form of tuition, there's a shortcut taken and the money never transfers hands. Could be an interesting debate. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be an interesting debate. Thoughts? Debate? Possibly, but I think any bookeeper in the world would say that there needs to be a paper trail left of all transactions even if it goes from left pocket to right pocket...The ethical thing todo would have been to cut him a check for services rendered, and a bill for tuition and let it get settled that way....Should be interesting to see what happens though...To me it looks like Skogen is distancing himself from the situation, his quotes were right the point" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taydizzle Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 From Ronnie Carters quotes, there does not seem to be a debate. Also, at Temple, CCS, or any other private school if your bill falls behind a couple of months upaid, as Skogen and Chastains did, then you are also ineligible.

Skogen's bill did not fall behind a couple of months unpaid. He never received a bill. The article said that Scott did receive a bill but did not pay it.

dadoffour Posted August 16, 2007 Report Share Posted August 16, 2007 Yes, that took a long time to click your name, see that nearly all were in the Temple topic(s) by their title and notice that one phrase about getting in players. All of about three minutes. What exactly did you mean, you expected them to get players in? I've been around Temple for 30 years and know that new students come to the high school every year, many with the hopes of making a sports team. That's all I meant.

Could be an interesting debate. Thoughts? Strictly based on the way it was done, no bills, no checks, no paper trail I don't think there will be any debate. Technicality?? From what I have heard ...probably...... but still a violation IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The article said that Scott did receive a bill but did not pay it. What I should have said was if your tuition was upaid for a couple of months, then you would be ruled ineligible. A bill is not required, it is what is on the books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverdalefan Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 Does Zonepirate or anyone else have any idea when more information is coming out in the newsapaper? I had heard that TSSAA was in town and still working hard. I would think that the longer the investigation goes, the worse it looks for Temple. Anyone agree or disagree with this way of thinking?
