Fayetteville to forfeit 6 wins

[FridayMainEvent]

MG just told me they can't comment because of pending litigation.

What keeps Freedom Prep from doing the same thing this week and playing in the playoffs?

The filing a restraining order reminds me of the 30 for 30 "What Carter Lost" about the 1988 Dallas Carter football team that beat the Permian Panthers of Friday night lights

I just had a very interesting question posed. If Fayetteville has a restraining order against the TSSAA, who will officiate the games they play? The refs are governed by the TSSAA correct?

The restraining order means the player is eligible until further action.  That has the effect of putting Fayetteville back into the playoffs until further action, but whether or not a player is eligible is unrelated to the matter of officiating a game.  So, there is no effect on the officiating of a game.

Coin flip after the gate is collected right? Lol

Or the 4th seed plays the first half and the 5th seed plays the 2nd half. Double gate.

Thanks for the clarification. On a side note, don't be surprised if every little thing gets called against the tigers and not much against the opposing team. With a letter from TSSAA clearing the player and then turn around and change it with nothing else happening puts a little egg on their face. Now with everything else, just my opinion, folks are going to want to get the tigers out of the playoffs ASAP. Not a conspiracy theorist or anything, but wouldn't be surprised.

Didn’t this same thing happen with a girls basketball player in Alabama or Georgia?  A restraining order helped her play after being ineligible.

What kind of mess is a restraining order in football? Wendy got one on me a few years ago when we got into it one night at ronnies red eye.  She dropped it a few weeks later.  I garuntee you I aint joking either.

It will be very interesting if two different teams show up at Huntingdon in the 1st round expecting to play.... Might be a huge gate for the Mustangs in round one..

Beat them both.  Problem solved!
