If the players were deemed eligible by the TSSAA then that should have been fine. 

Address, utilites etc... turned in and vetted then all is fine.

It woudln't matter if the kids slept in Jackson, Humboldt, Trump Tower, in the school, in a box with a fox the official address that was turned in and used is all that matters.

The TSSAA might not be everyones favorite but for them to back track on an eligibility that they had already determined is not in their best interest.

Hope this news to be true, it would have been a shame.  I'm not taking anything away from the 2 brothers and their abilities but this Bulldog team could have made a deep run in the playoffs even before those 2 transferred in..... Congrats Bulldawg fans.  I know there is a heavy sigh of relief.... that Peabody isn't in your bracket... ;-)

That is not how it works. Schools basically turn in players eligibility stating they are good to go via all avenues and TSSAA bases their eligibility off that info; however if that info is not correct due to school error or players not being truthful they can be deemed ineligible at a later time. If Milan fans are hanging their hat on the TSSAA deemed their eligible earlier doesn’t mean a hill of beans if new info was brought to the table.

Yep. Milan is cleared. All allegations were proven to be false. Including the ones from the many trolls on these message boards. Buckle up buttercups. Heads are gonna roll in the playoffs. :)

Good deal. Kids work to hard to have their season end in a way like that.

New info was brought in. It was proven to be false info. Pitiful attempt to get Milan thrown out of the playoffs. They’re gonna get it. They know who they are.

    • Never said I thought it was a smart decision. I'm scratching my head at it too.
    • If he wanted to play QB he should have either went to Heritage or William Blount and had a real good chance there. In stead he'll be exactly what he was going to be at Maryville. They already know who their QB is going to be in 2025 and it ain't going to be him.
    • Easier said than done. The man who ran for 250+ yards and 3TDs is gonna be back….and a lot bigger.
    • plus it removes the pressure around winning.
    • You are correct.   The teacher's pay scale is virtually the same in Knox County, now, as it is at Oak Ridge.   The coaching supplements are still higher at Oak Ridge, from what I was told, but not a huge difference.   Plus, Rusty is going from a position coach to an OC position, which is what he was at South Doyle and where his comfort zone is.  And from a special education teaching slot to a PE teaching slot.  There is a lot of positivity in that move without even considering the coaching aspect.   Anybody who sees something negative here is just looking for negativity to begin with.  But some live in that world.   Really good hire for Brent.  He now has two experienced and quality coordinators and can concentrate on being a head football coach.
