What schools benefit from open enrollment and does it leave room for cheating?

Correct...the kid moved into the area we serviced so we would have picked him up if he needed a ride. He didn’t so we didn’t go to his house. We don’t make it a practice to drive by every single house in the area we serve if there is not someone who needs a ride.

This is a serious question...if y’all have 25 streets that fall inside of your territory but there are no students that need a ride on those streets, do you tell your bus drivers to just go ride up and down them so you can say there is a bus route there? I don’t know any school system that does that. 

Our school (and system) has delt with the issue before in the same situation as the FC ruling. We've had players transfer in county to a residence with a bus route that ran to the school he left, and sat for a year to attend our school (per county AD). We've also had a player transfer here after moving to a residence where no bus ran, and did not sit (he drove). All this was/is determined by our county policy, and not TSSAA. The kid who did sit out a year investigated (his dad did) this and fought to get his son cleared to play his Sophomore season since there was a legit change of address, but was told by the same guy with TSSAA that ruled your kid ineligible that he had to follow county policy. Was also told that TSSAA had no position on zones or bus routes other than school policy. I could provide names, but I don't do that... there's an old discussion on the 'T involving some details if you'd like to look for it, and if it helps he was baseball and football, his dad was one of only two or three posters from Scotts Hill ever on here, and he's currently at UT on a baseball scholly.

I know if you try to transfer to Peabody and play sports you will be told you need a trenton address. 
 

you want to hear something funny ?  Gibson county is right down the road like maybe 4-6 miles. There are addresses near the school like on the same road and if you live there your kids have to go to Trenton. 

The entire campus of GCHS is in TSSD boundary..

    • Not sure how I would put it as recruiting perhaps kids trying to better their career by going to a head coach and coaching staff with connections all over college football that gets them the opportunity to go play college football and be coached by a coach with a pretty good track record.
    • Lee would have been a good choice, also.  I'm sure Benny was involved with the decision.  
    • Personally I was pulling for Lee Hammonds to get another shot. He’s earned it! 
    • Tyler Williams was the logical choice to be named head football. He served as the Highlanders’ strength coach and offensive coordinator.
    • I went to practice yesterday and liked what I saw for the most part. Derek and crew have done a good job during the off-season. I was very impressed with the size of some of those boys on the offensive line. My only regret was one of the boys I was really pulling for to have a good year was dismissed from the team. I have to applaud the coaches for setting examples for the others, no one is bigger than the team. One other thing, I was hoping with that big rain we got this week some of that  yellow paint would dissolve but it didn't.
