We had this discussion last week.  As far as we can tell, both Ghost (blue and yellow) are legal in high school play.  Neither are on the unapproved list.  I had to ask myself about the yellow ghost.  I know in travel softball it is only legal in USSSA (unless that has changed recently).  Interested to see what other people are seeing across the state.

The USSSA Ghost will not be listed on the USA approved, or non-approved list, as it was never a USA bat. It is illegal for HS play acoording to NFHS which uses the USA approved bat list. I cannot find any ruling that the USSSA Ghost is legal for high school.

The blue ghost is legal, the gold ghost is illegal. IF the gold ghost is found to have an ASA stamp on it it is an altered bat since you cannot buy a gold ghost with said stamp on it. Said bat should be confiscated by the umpires and turned into state office per a TSSAA official.

I heard a player from Collierville has been using this bat.. Do umpires not check or are they not aware of the non asa stamped bats ? 

Also, tssaa umpires went away from bat checks two years ago and only look at bat/stamps if protesting a bat from the defensive team. They do not get a list of illegal/ legal bats and will only go off what is stamped on the bat.

      Yes. I have seen that cause problems. In my last coaching stop, if a coach resigned they got them into another building. Sometimes the very next day. Welcome.

      Agree. The man literally sacrificed time, moments, memories you can't get back with his own family for every single athlete at that school. (and many others) To those that continue to be negative about him and continue to bring him up; He's been loyal, hardworking and just his entire coaching career. Ask anyone that actually has a leg to stand on in regard to Coach.

      Egotistical? That's a new one.  It's funny, I'm friends with two of the younger coaches that he "ran off" as you say. In fact, he helped them find jobs, encouraged them to do what was best for their growing families, provided advice, support and still does to this day.

      Track has always been big at OR. Ran off about 7 straight titles in the 60s. Your hate for Gaddis runs deep, huh? What did he ever do to you, to make you disdain him that much? You can’t seem to stop talking about the guy. He’s living rent free in your head. Might wanna get that checked out, you don’t wanna go to the grave with that on your heart.
