Region 4-4a

You are the idiot. Trying to accuse a school of cheating when you don't have any factual evidence other than throwing out acusations. Cover up what lie? Prove Marshall County is cheating or keep your mouth shut! It's pretty simple. Now go find your safe space like a good boy. I'm not trying to change any story. The fact remains that yes the previous residence has to be vacant but nowhere and I mean NOWHERE in the rule book does it state that the residence has to be SOLD. Now if you want to post the rule where it states "the previous residence has to be sold" then I will admit I am wrong. Happy hunting.

No affiliation with any schools in region 4a, but as a former Tennessee High school football coach who has dealt with transfer student before my understanding is as long as there is a change of address in the new school zone and you no longer receive any mail at the other address (water bills, electric bills, etc.) At the time the student is enrolled then the player is eligible to play. The house does not have to be sold just vacant and no mail with that address and your name on it. Now if the player has enrolled and any mail is post marked on or after the enrollment date to the old address then that's were the player is not eligible.

 

My 2 cents from a former coach

Lead sorry pal but that's some funny skit! "Is your name Hillary". What in the world have you stirred up....the rule book ......really?

JAFO you know BooWhoWiseMans M.O. when his team can't win against a team he throws a out cheating acusations. He tried telling me that the previous residence had to be sold to make a transfer legal. He didn't want to post where it said the residence had to be "sold". So I posted it for him. I also can't seem to find where it says the word "vacant" in the rule either. Still waiting for him to point it out. Edited September 6, 2016 by leadfarmer

A few thoughts:

1) this is high school football, your team winning doesn't make you a better person, nor does your team losing make you a bad person.

2) an unconfirmed rumor is just that, a rumor

3) who downloads a TSSAA rule book and memorizes the section about illegal players moving into your district?

4) if your self worth is enhanced by talking smack and calling people stupid on a message board, you are pretty worthless to begin with.

 

I will support my kid and my team, and will wish our opponents good luck in every game but the one they face us. Grow up and cheer your team, but PLEASE don't expect any congratulations for talking smack...the game is about the athletes, not some internet Al Bundy reliving his "glory days"

I'll post the rule book all day long then maybe your boy will get the hint that he, in fact, does not know everything! Edited September 7, 2016 by leadfarmer

You are an idiot. Marshall got put on probation for a coach giving a ride to a player that wasn't in zone. Is that in the rule book?

.Didnt scower the rule book. I simply looked at what you were claiming and it wasnt there. So i took the liberty to post it so you could see for yourself. Since then you have completely ignored it.yes, yes they did. We are discussing transfers here junior and furthermore the kid was already in the enrolment process. Therefore the coaches didn't think they were breaking a rule but as it turns out they did. Took their punishment and moved on. Seems like that's something you can't seem to do. Everyone on the T knows what you are about. Drag every team through the mudd to make yourself feel better but let someone speak up about and that's not ok. Now if you will excuse me I have some cars to build so the fine folks of Spring Hill can keep their property values up. Edited September 7, 2016 by leadfarmer

A) he's not "my boy"

if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck.

C) thank you for building cars to raise my property values, as you know GM is one of the primary employers in Spring Hill...for what it's worth, I produce as much garbage as possible so your program can get support too.

Obviously we are not going to agree. So I personally will let it go. However I strongly encourage you to call TSSAA, 615-8896740 and ask them that question. You will see that I am right. You will still deny it but you will hear from the big dogs themselves. Plus I highly doubt you build cars as that takes some intelligence. Or maybe we have the reason for all the recent recalls.😂
