[Intheknow2]

So is the kid paying full tuition at Ensworth or did he get an NIL deal?

who do you think turned LA in?  They ain't going no where.

TSSAA loves the attendance at private school playoff games and they love the crowds they bring to the Blue Cross bowl. Its all about money.  Private schools should write their by laws and get out.  Make it like college.  Open recruitment a one time transfer after 1 you sit out.  Schools can pay tuition and provide housing whatever.  Whoever has the most $$$$$ wins.

It seems like everyone in Nashville and Chattanooga knows exactly who this family is.  After doing some X analytics on players announcing their departure from David Lipscomb it’s obvious there are only 2 possibilities.  The QB Graham that is now at Riverdale, but graduating and the other is Cooper that announced he was going to Ensworth back In the spring.   I guess it’s narrowed down now.

You raise an interest question about the ability to pay for Ensworth.  As the text messages go, David Lipscomb was not renewing his financial aide.  Isn’t a clearinghouse the decision maker on the amount?  I believe Ensworth is more expensive, so how is he affording the higher price? 
 

Was this all revenge by the Dad for the school not renewing his financial aide?  With all the reported school hoping and the radio show calling Scott Cooper Mr Text Message, this must have been the family with a scarlet letter.  Don’t you know some of those Lipscomb kids are pissed and telling college coaches to flee that family.

Anywho, championships await!

Trent Diler my arse, this is ALL on this year's coaching and athletic department.  No one else.  To be transparent, most winning programs have skeletons in their closet and/or walk a fine line hoping they haven't violated the vague TSSAA guidelines.  

Check the dates on those text messages

Dilfer was even here in Chattanooga last year almost until game time for the championship.  He was in Bama signing a contract. I think the next day he was gone.  These texts all occurred after he left according to TSSAA and LA folks.

The smallest crowds they have. TSSAA release total attendance each year.

Since the 21 and 22 titles were actually bought as well it would make sense. Lol 

Proof?  Or do you prefer to sling around BS to make yourself feel better?

One in the same - living vicariously through his son.  He's left a mess at every school his son has been enrolled.  Ensworth better watch out.  Sorta sad that FCA is his employer. Peek at his SM, Jesus this and Christian that.  Karma is something else.

Yes, the clearing house determines the exact amount of financial aid that a family qualifies for.  However, the school may offer 100% of the amount that a student qualifies for, or they may offer much less than what the clearing house says that the student qualifies for.  It is my understanding that there are three different clearing houses, and some are more generous with the way they calculate the aid qualified for than the other ones.  Each individual school determines which clearing house or houses they wish to use.
