Does Melhoff play anywhere else on offense?

 

Croz, answer a question for me if you can: I think I am correct on this - if a kid transferes to a private school, as is FCS, and there is no change in physical address, the kid can play immediately. Now, if a kid transfers from a private school or a public school without a change in physical address, to a public school, the kid has to sit out a year. If this analogy is correct, please explain.

I am not Croz, but will explain the transfer rule the best that I can. If a student/athlete has an athletic record at school A (which is a public school) and transfers to school B (which is a private school), then he/she must reside outside of a 20 mile radius (as the crow flies) of school B and move inside of that radius in order to become eligible. For example, lets say a student lives next door to Gordonsville High School and moves to Lebanon and wants to attend Friendship, then he/she is ineligible because it is not outside of the 20 mile radius. But, this same student/athlete would be eligible to attend and play immediately at Lebanon High School. Now going from a school B to school A would bring about the same radius rule to become eligible. It is easy to remain eligible if you move from public to public, but not public to private or private to public. Scooter, please don't think for a minute that the private schools have some kind of advantage with regards to this rule because they most certainly do not. The rule is a bunch of garbage.

    • Why? Low pay. Low budget thanks to the Rotary milking the programs revenue. Foul smell. There are other negative things... Positives: the players and being toward the top of the classification numbers wise.
    • What we have here is an influx of outsiders raining down on the town of Maryville like a swarm of locust trying to change our culture into the same crap they moved away from. I have no issues with anyone coming here but don't bring your politics with you. Most people around here never pay attention to the elections and keep letting the same ole rats and vermin right back in the back door and wonder why things are like they are. The problem at Maryville High is mainly due to letting outsiders get a foothold on control and shove their agenda down everyone's throat. Anyone that leaves there or let's say ranoff are replaced with an outsider with the same mindset. Eventually Maryville High will never be the same as it once was which I'm beginning to believe already but it's only chance of survival are to recruit people that will get in there and reverse the damage that has already happened.

    • Athletics is just a piece. It can help them academically, socially and add confidence. I was still 17 when I finished my first quarter at UT. I was the last to get my driver's license. It's not always just for athletics.
