I could imagine it. Whether Fayetteville is right on the rules and logic or not, the TSSAA will need to do that for sure. If they now feel they were wrong on the territory matter, they could approve the hardship, then clarify the bus route language over the winter and thereby achieve what may be the just, correct, and logical outcome, save face, and also not open a big can of worms with this bus route ruling. For instance, If LCHS doesn't pick up kids in town (I think they don't), they lose Fayetteville proper as territory if this ruling holds without clarification. No one has ever believed that is or should be the case, imo. Edited November 5, 2019 by PullinGuard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does have the scent of a loophole compromise, allowing Fayetteville and the TSSAA to get out if this in a way that satisfied Fayetteville without setting a new precedent on eligibility that the TSSAA wouldn't want. The TSSAA bungled this situation, but they don't want to have to admit this even if they aren't sure they want the fight to continue.
