Let's go with

#4 Memphis Rules for everyone.

[TheFootballDad]

I think the only way a player should be able to transfer is on a legitimate move to another school district...but i would say make sure there is an official move of the entire family or immediate guardian of the kid/kids. then allow them that one time transfer rule to the school they moved to that district of but allow them to play that year. however, if they move again, they will have to sit regardless of the reason that way we do not have kids playing at 4 schools in a 4 year span trying to seek a championship team.

and im saying allow them to play even if the official move is only across town but land in another school district. So if a riverdale player moved to Oakland school zone, that player can qualify for the one time move...but after that he will have to sit if the family moves again anywhere in the state of TN regardless of miles moved!

When the NIL hits all a kid will have to do is take the TSSAA to court and goodbye transfer rule.

If it's tied to legislation, they'd probably have to sue the state

Me to. Things happen, sometimes bad things and kids need to change schools and/or residences. No way I’d support punishing a kid in Such a situation just because he had already transferred once. I truly hope that the one time transfer rule is in addition to the current rules and not in place of them.

1. Roll Call...

4. 2023 Regional Meetings

   a-k...

 

 l. Voted to table potential changes to the existing transfer rules until they have further conversations with members of the state legislature and gather further information from member schools as to which option they would prefer if a change were to be made.

Yeah. I know.  It has the potential to shred HS athletics.  I can see it now.  The little 8th grader who could run circles around everyone goes to high school.  Doesn’t play as a freshman.  Mommy and Daddy  thinks they have the next Patrick Mahommes. Next thing we see is a Facebook/Twitter/TikTok:  “I have entered the high school portal.”
