you guys are grasping at straws.

saying they are living in dorms may be grasping but I am not sure what else is.  Not sure what I am missing.

 

1.  LA Qbs struggled in scrimmages.  

2.  OC had a prior relationship with Knight

3.  2 weeks before season Dad gets a job in Nashville of all places and lands at LA somehow.  Just a coincidence on the timing and prior relationship with staff.  maybe he just googled Nashville jobs and found LA.?  Would certainly seem there was communication with LA prior to him submitting for enrollment

4.  His cousin also happens to end up in Nashville with him

5.  After 3 games both decide to go "home' bc they miss there families.  There words

 

So where were there families.  Who were the living with?  Did the entire frailly unit for each player relocate per TSSAA rules?  I don't think those are crazy questions to ask.  Its not an LA issue.  Its a governing body that's a joke issue.

I hope the kid has success playing no matter final destination, he was fun to watch and will be on a D1 roster very soon.

interesting.  I still think everyone is grasping at straws.  for all you know his mom and dad were up here looking for jobs and couldn't find what they wanted and went home with him.  moving from mississippi to nashville had to be a shock from a cost of living standpoint.

Must have been a shock for his cousin also. Two whole family units actually.

I know I blindly relocate without knowing anything about the housing market and quickly move back to my previous residence all the time. 

Who exactly is grasping at straws here?

Another school would probably have to complain. With him gone, they may no longer care.

Booger just sayin 

I'll have you know we have worked hard to make sure they aint enuf places you can afford to live.

If this was Giles County or Fairview the TSSAA would be turning over every rock, pebble, fragment of dirt to look into this.  
 

It’s Lipscomb and the TSSAA is hoping that the backlash magically goes away.
