From: "Transfers"

[ptguard12]

Don't beat around the bush. You are talking about jc. Well they may just bring home another gold this year.

And for all of you that don't know of any bad situations, send your daughters or relatives to these former schools and see how they fair. You need to get a new life, and not try to down the young people for trying to better their life. Also ask about all the great athletes that give up and quit sports, because of these poorly and badly run sports systems. I could send you probably twenty or thirty names that have quit at one of these schools in the last 20 years that were good if not great athletes. You need to address this more. Till later thank God that you people don't control the

tssaa. These young people are only young once. The goal of all schools should be to advance character, and prepare them for adult life. Not to force them to either quit or endure terrible situations. One more thing it is usually the best players that give up, because they are the ones under the most pressure.

 

 

I feel as though this is directed at me about the girl whose father I heard say that he was only moving her to another school so that she could win a State Championship. I will go on the record and say that it was not the father of any player that transfered to Jackson County and I have not once referenced anything to Jackson County or any team in District 7A for that matter. This topic is purly about "transfers" that occur all across the state. Funny how you assumed that it was directed at your school and district though. And you need to take the blinders off if you think all these transfers are good for high school sports.

 

I stated that some transfers are absolutely necessary because of legitimate bad situations. However, and this was my point, alot of transfers who state that are leaving because of bad situations are actually leaving because they either did not get what they wanted (i.e. more playing time or to be the star) or they simply wanted to win a State Championship and they found a team that was already capable of doing just that. Why use the "bad situation" card? Just own up to the real reason you are transfering, don't play on words and try to make it sound like you are the victim of bad circumstances.
