orngnblk Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 If your in a private school and move to public without moving you have to sit or if you are boarding at a private school and move to public then you are eligible to play right away too is the way I understood it. If you go public to private you are eligible to play right away.GCA to go D2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QSouth89 Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 (edited) that makes no sense .. you mean to tell me a family puts their kid at say Knox Cath and are paying tuition and living in says Karns .. and the family come upon hard times and cant afford to pay the tuition that if he goes back to Karns he has to sit ???? Thats crazy ... but if he is a good player at Karns and Knoc Cath comes calling and his family decides to go to Knox Cath he doesnt have to sit a year ... that is the craziest thing I have ever heard ... a kid has to back to his community school becuase parents cant afford tuition and he has to pay the price by sitting a year ..... LOL .. it figures its the TSSAAThat would be crazy. Edited October 13, 2016 by QSouth89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL .. it figures its the TSSAAThat is NOT how it works. If your child is at a private school and decides transfer to a public school your kid is eligible to play if it's your child's zoned school. The same goes for any athlete that doesn't attend their zoned public school and then decides to transfer to their zoned school, they can play right away. To transfer from a public school to a private school you HAVE to sit out unless you move and it has be a 20 mile move. Now with special education laws and NCLB, there are legal ways to move schools without sitting out but it has to be of a true academic nature and that doesn't apply on a public to private transfer just public to public.

Can't transfer from a private to a public if within 20 miles. Some waivers may be given depending on circumstances. Last year Father Ryan had a player leave for Hendersonville but he was ineligible due to the mileage issue. He lost his Sr year and is now at Vandy.

QSouth89 Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Q, I think you're wrong on that one.I thought the move had to be 20 miles or more. I know if it's less then 20 miles you're sitting out. I miss the boat on that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chill Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 It's the other part youre wrong about. No kid leaving a private school can go to their zoned public school and just be eligible. If an athletic record was established, they sit a year without a change of residence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If an athletic record was established, they sit a year without a change of residence.I assumed they could because we had a varsity basketball player transfer to Bearden and I was told he was on their varsity. I guess he won't be eligible then. Edited October 13, 2016 by QSouth89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAmbassador Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 LOL - I didn't read the article, but that was the biggest no-brainer in the state. Notre Dame football has had several players for several years that don't pay tuition. To me, they were the poster child for the new rules separating. You mean they have been cheating?
