I tried to tell @RTD recruiting was going well

Although high school sports have not been pure in years, it is the purist form we have left. That’s the biggest reason I had rather watch high school sports as any other. Now we’ll have parents standi

Why????? These are still kids whose parents or guardians still support them?   PS: who is making money off high school kids right now anyway?

Anyone who supports free market capitalism should fully embrace Name Image and Likeness. NIL is free market capitalism at its finest.  Paying for apartments, paying bills, providing vehicles, and providing employment for parents has been going on for years and years across the state across many sports.  The TSSAA just took this issue off of their plate.  These issues have been and will continue to be nearly impossible to police.

This deal is not "for the kids"... this is intended for those with the means to be free from scrutiny when actively recruiting athletes, period. TSSAA's mission statement includes the language for providing a level playing field, yet they just enabled an outside entity to bribe an athlete to play for the school of their choosing over another, that without their influence the kid would be enrolled at. It just so happens that the collateral damage will elevate "daddy ball" to heights never witnessed before, along with selfish play (can't get a deal by playing team ball). If you believe that this is free market capitalism rather than exploitation of minors, you probably approved of Nike shoes being made in those sweat shops where 10 year-olds were working 16 hour shifts making 50 cents a day... just sit back and see how this works.

Who knew that if a kid in high school gave a 8 year old hitting lessons, and got paid for the instruction, that was a violation.  If that is the case, I hope the statue of limitiations is up for someone who graduated in 2015.  LOL. 

You took the kid's lunch money as payment?   I hope they lock you up a couple days.   :lol:

      Oh, I’m sure you did. Maybe you heard just a rumor, but considering we have a football practice field and a soccer field that’s frequently used for lacrosse games and practices, I highly doubt it. Let me change that. I know for a fact that didn’t happen.   Glad you finally stopped attacking a bunch of high school students, but still obsessed with the coaching staff for some unknown reason, even though you could name more than three (at most) coaches without looking it up. But now come up with something else.

      Now that wouldn’t surprise me a bit. That has been going on heavily since the days of Larry Kerr @ AC. One of the major reasons CC has never really had much at all, barring about 2 seasons in football. AC milks it dry.

      Interesting how quite it is. Rumors are going around that Anderson County is being looked at by TSSAA for recruiting violations with the Campbell County transfers.

      I heard from a member of the teaching staff that there has been a dispute over use of the game field between football, and girls lacrosse team. Girls had a game and wanted to warm up and football coaches did want to leave. The football coaches came down hard with some bad vulgar language and the girls lacrosse backed down. What a classy act BHS athletics has become.
