If the poster above has good information that he transferred before attending alternative school would that not make him automatically ineligible?

Region 5 this year doesn't make sense. In game 1 Cornersville had to replace 8-9 starters both sides of the ball. These guys had to learn how to play together. Not an excuse, community just caught us at the right time. Region play has been crazy. Doesn't really matter now, win or go home time.

GG22 Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 (edited) Fayetteville City Schools release: Friday morning, TSSAA filed a motion to dismiss our case regarding eligibility. The judge suggested to the attorneys that we try to work out a solution rather than go forward with a lawsuit. We agreed to go before the board of control on Tuesday at 10 am if TSSAA would delay drawing the brackets as a compromise in hope of a positive resolution. We sincerely appreciate the outpouring of support and congratulate our Tigers on a 10 and 0 season!!!

1aTn Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 We are all sinful creatures and each have our own personal challenges with them!! It is not right for any of us to sit here and hide behind a keyboard and lash out at innocent people and possibly a vulnerable young teenager!! Many youth take their own lives because of the pressures that are out there!!I Is it possible that he was wrongly accused?? is it possible his family wanted better for him!! Have any of you gone to the school or the family and asked him why he transferred?? Have any of you asked to talk face to face with the head Coach?? No you have not!! You might find out that every word we post hurts this family and a good school system bad!! You might find out that there are Christian people that work there that sacrifice daily for kids that have a bad home life!! You might find out that there are people at TSSAA with hidden agendas and toxic relationships with toxic people that hand down decisions that hurt innocent families!! We all need to follow the scriptures and look at the sin and our own lives before we point out others!! We as fathers should want what is best for our sons and if changing schools is one of those then do it!! I applaud this family and school system!! I pray for them as well!! The devil walks around like a roaring lion seeking to devour us like a roaring lion!! This school has suffered through two suicides of youth,a car accident taking the life of a player and now this!! How much more pressure can adults hiding behind a keyboard put on innocent kids!! Just remember that our hurtful words can also put blood on our hands!! Pray for you all!! 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cant speak for everyone, but I can guarantee nobody means to SPEAK harm about the boy.. whether he is a good kid or not, whether they transferred because of a toxic relationship, whatever the reason, a rule is a rule, that we all abide by, Now, if its found that the kid is indeed legal and justified in playing this week I hope it all works out, if its found that he is indeed outside of the zones allowed, then the losses deserved to be stripped. Plain as day, nothing against the boy, the parents , the school nothing against anybody. The standard is to be upheld by every school that participates in the TSSAA. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southtowner Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 The TSSAA and Fayetteville High School are no longer in court disputing the high school athletic association's ruling to declare a high school football player ineligible. However, the school's playoff future, and now all of Region 5-1A and Region 6-1A are as muddied as ever. TSSAA assistant director Richard McWhirter told The Tennessean that the TSSAA appealed to Circuit Court Judge M. Wyatt Burk in Lincoln County chancery court on Friday. However before a decision was rendered, both the school and the high school athletic association decided to drop the litigation. Instead, Fayetteville will go before the TSSAA's Board of Control in a special-called meeting at 10 a.m. Tuesday to determine the school's playoff status. The playoffs begin on Friday. The TSSAA has set a 7 p.m., Saturday kickoff for the four games effected by the delay, but will permit games to be played earlier Saturday or on Friday night if both teams agree. "Our attorneys presented, then the judge heard it and said he would make a decision whether it was dropped or go on to litigation on Nov. 13, like it had been planned," McWhirter said. "Between then, the two sides agreed on this. "So the litigation is dropped." The Board of Control could not meet on Monday due to a TSSAA regional meeting already scheduled in Knoxville. Because of that, the TSSAA will not release the playoff pairings involving Region 5-1A and Region 6-1A until after Tuesday's ruling. The rest of the Class 1A bracket will be released on time Friday night. A special-called Board of Control meeting had been scheduled for Tuesday, but before that was held, Burk issued a restraining order to suspend the ineligible ruling until the Nov. 13 court date. Fayetteville went from undefeated to having six losses and out of the Class 1A playoffs after the TSSAA's decision on Oct. 24. At issue was a decision made in September by TSSAA executive director Bernard Childress declaring the Fayetteville athlete eligible. The letter said the TSSAA confirmed that the family had made a bona fide change of address to the Fayetteville High zone, meaning he was immediately eligible. On Oct. 15, TSSAA assistant director Gene Menees contacted Fayetteville regarding a new complaint that the same student, who had played in six games, was ineligible. Menees ruled that the athlete did not live in the proper Fayetteville High territory, meaning he was ineligible for one calendar year after he transferred. Per TSSAA bylaws, a transfer student must "live in the geographic boundaries and bus routes of the area served by that school as established by the local board of education." The student does not live inside the Fayetteville city limits, which is where the school's bus drivers provide transportation. The student lives in Lincoln County. Students from Lincoln County are also eligible to go to Fayetteville, but must provide their own transportation. Fayetteville personnel requested multiple meetings with Childress regarding Menees' ruling. However, Childress is on extended medical leave. Fayetteville's complaint to the Lincoln County chancery court included that the TSSAA's constitution and bylaws include "numerous provisions that require the TSSAA executive director to perform certain duties including the initiation of investigation, notification to the school that it is being investigated, evidence-gathering, conduction hearing and determination of whether a violation has occurred, and, if so, what penalties should be imposed." The complaint stated that there is no provision by which Childress may delegate his duties. This is the article written by Tom Kreager. That was provided via link a couple pages back.

Jobres76 Posted November 2, 2019 Report Share Posted November 2, 2019 So I ask the question again. In the case that the executive director is out for an extended period of time, would it not be the place of the assistant director to act in his place? Otherwise, what are the assistants there for?
