Per Tom Kreager:  They are in executive session. Ineligible player had a hardship request. Says he was bullied in Alabama.  Will determine that before the territory issue. That part is open to the media I believe. 

Personally, I don't see how bullying in Alabama has any relevance.

He moved from out of state. The reason why shouldn't matter.

It seems tbe territory issue is wbat rules him eligible or ineligible. Focus on that and wrap this up.

When was the hardship filed?  Today?  

I know nothing at all about it.  But the tweet says 'had', and that implies it was done sometime in the past. 

Could've been in the background all along, I don't know.  Even if it existed from day one, it would've been rendered moot by the original 'all-clear' letter, and therefore never considered until now.  Just a theory.  I assume you couldn't file it now, but don't know.

If I were to guess at this,  I'd say the hardship being ruled on before the territory issue is key.

Surely this hardship hasn't been filed at the beginning of all this and just now coming to the forefront.  

I could easily imagine it given the initial clearance under normal rules.  Hardships are much harder to consider than an address only ordinarily, and if Childress says he's good to go under the normal transfer rules, I don't think anyone would have any interest in considering the hardship (and lots of reasons not to).  From either side. 

The hardship application would serve no purpose if he's ruled good without it -  that's my point.  So it would be no surprise if it were filed from the start but then never considered. 

Again, 100% a theory.  I know nothing at all about it.

Another theory would be the TSSAA pulled this hardship out of thin air today to save face and therefore not have to rule on the territory issue at hand.

    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
    • I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
