Just let um go anywhere they want to and be done with it ,at least it would be legal that way. To be honest,no one should tell people where they can send their kids to school. All the best teams already attract kids, the bad one's lose um.  Sports in general have gotten worse and worse at every level, A kid or even grown up can't score or make a big play without celebrating and drawing attention or just flat out taunting, Was much better when you just made a play and went back to the huddle. Its sickening to me, kids need to be taught to be humble and not like they are some sort of superior being. If so, they would be able to do it as adults. Truth is ,you only have the talent you are given, be thankful and not look down on others thats not as gifted. Our whole society is me,me me. Sad but true.

You and I have agreed on much lately. But you are definitely spot on.  I was always told act like you’ve been there before and you’ll be back again. Don’t like its your first or that it’s gonna be your last.

Pride before a fall, people are just mere humans. Biggest ,smallest, come into the world without anything and leave the same way, it comes down to what you are ,nothing else matters. I love sports and the good values they teach, just think were learning some really bad values these days.

My thoughts exactly!Hate this new way of acting so ridiculous after decent plays.

Shoutout to Jack Camper from Riverside... if some of the bigger guys on this list had his heart, they'd be playing on Sundays.

Glaring omission... Jagger Cupples from Riverside. As good as most on this list on both sides of the ball.

Shoot I’m proud of our junior DB and sophomore LB that made it. Too bad they weren’t good enough to even play for one of our region opponents. At least they were good enough to make the all state team though :roflol::popcorneater:

Agreed. Also, Cj Pelanero not being on this list is a bit sus. Definitely one of the best defensive players on the field for either team, for any game.

Roll Call...

l. The state office has been charged by the state legislature to ask TSSAA member schools about their desire to modify the existing transfer rules of the association.

 
 The state office asked the membership to vote for one of three options:
 
1) Keep the current transfer rules.

2) Provide students the opportunity to transfer one time after establishing a high school athletic record.

3) Provide students the opportunity to transfer one time after establishing a high school athletic record provided the transfer takes place before they begin their 10th grade year.

    • For perspective the county school I’m associated and graduated from only has 7,600 people in the entire county with a median age of roughly 47. That’s not very many 14-18 year olds to choose from. I think the football team had 25-28 kids or around there.  On the other hand Shelby County has 916,000+ with a median age of 36. This isn’t just about Shelby county, but all the big ones with huge economic advantages!  An urban/rural split would benefit tons of smaller schools that have to compete with county’s with 120x the amount of people. Especially the ones who can pick and choose their players from a pool like that!   I also agree with Pujo about charter and magnets and they will eventually be phased into the private divisions because it is obviously an advantage plus all the funding! Add that county schools can’t go recruit outside of their county like charters and magnets! 
    • They should be starting next week and go from there.  They never do Spring Practice in April 
    • It will be interesting to see if the Warren County School District allows this to go before a jury or they settle out of court before going to trial.  My guess is that this case never goes to trial.  If this goes before a jury, they could award even more than the $750K.  I was on a jury where they were asking for 185K and were awarded 1.2 million.  You never know what will happen in that jury room.
