Insane. I didn't know this was a rule. Would they be dropped from TSSAA if they competed anyways? What would the repcussions be and has TSSAA said why they won't allow it?

Itll kinda look bad if the state prevents them from playing especially with the chance to possibly have the #1 national teams in both Boys and Girls bc the #1 boys team's best player has supposedly said he's done with highschool and looking forward to the next level.

Yeah understandable. Is he a senior or looking to play prep school next year? I assume you are referring to Lomax or Moss?

I think he's referring to Chandler Lawson who is a sophomore.

TSSAA is so full of crap. I would love to hear their dumb reason for this.

T$$AA is all about money. Instead of petitions, you need to take up donations. If they can make money they will let you play.

I say, tell them to play.  Nothing wrong with it...TSSAA would look silly IF they decided to put some sort of sanction on them.

I'm referring to the #1 team right now in the nation Nathan Hale out of Seattle, they are coached by Brandon Roy and Michael Porter Jr is their best player. He/s the one that hinted he was done with highschool and looking forward to the next step. He's espn's #1 for 2017.

Looking at that list ... I didn't realize that the University of Washington was such a hotbed for talent in basketball. I guess I'm not keeping up.

I signed yesterday I stated in eailer post in a different thread that the Tssaa would not probably let them play because if does not benefit them money wise
