I was told his parents bought a house in Fort Mitchell and Justice is transferring to Beechwood.

 

Anyone?

Not all of Ft. Mitchell is BW's district. Is this kid the big running back?

Sounds like a familiar story. The only thing I really don't understand is going from a 6A program to a 1A program. Considering that this is the image of KY football at the 6A level :

Can you imagine what the impression is of KY 1A football is?

 

I went to see a playoff game between Lloyd and Walton last year, and I don't mean this to be derogatory, it is just an honest opinion, I thought was watching a freshman game.

 

Can't wait to hear the stories about the competition between this kid and the Stringer kid for reps. Most likely, either one would have started for the programs they left, now, one will be a spectator in pads!

Not everyone is going for a D1A scholarship to play football in college. Maybe the kid likes his chances for a state championship better at Beechwood than he does at Dixie.

 

...or maybe he is a teenager living under his parents' roof...and his parents are selling their old roof and buying a new one in Beechwood's school district. Who says this is about getting into college at all?

Well, per the Dixie web site, Colin will be a senior in 2012-2013. No idea if the transfer is a done deal or even true, but if so his competition will be Nussbaum and Erdman, and good luck

with that, that's two solid football players.

Stringer is a freshman. Freshmen don't play varsity or JV at Beechwood. There are usually no more than one or two sophomores each year that get varsity playing time at Beechwood.

Exactly

FYI, in case you were not aware, here are the results of Beechwood's 2011 6A Games:

 

Beechwood 28 Simon Kenton 0

 

Beechwood 62 Dixie 27

That would make a transfer most illogical.

"I went to see a playoff game between Lloyd and Walton last year, and I don't mean this to be derogatory, it is just an honest opinion, I thought was watching a freshman game."

What does this have to do with 1a football?

That would make a transfer most illogical.

 

It's a pretty logical transfer in my mind if his parents are moving to Fort Mitchell...

FYI, in case you were not aware, here are the results of Beechwood's 2011 6A Games:

 

Beechwood 28 Simon Kenton 0

 

Beechwood 62 Dixie 27

 

Both those programs were at the bottom of their District last year. And how many kids playing for BW have Erlanger and Independence addresses? BTW, those seniors of yours are gone and the sophomores SK started last year are now experienced juniors. So, we shall see.

Seems a little more logical to me.

Giving up playing time for a chance to be in a photograph IS NOT LOGICAL. I would personally question the heart of any kid making that kind of move!

Why do you assume that the "kid" is making the move? And why does that move have anything to do with high school football - or sports? His parents are the ones buying the house...he is a dependent of his parents. You are assuming all of this is motivated by football. By that logic, the only time a family moves into a new house in a new school district, their childrens' sports careers are the primary impetus for the move. I don't buy it.

 

One of my good friends grew up on Greenup Street in Covington, and eventually moved to Villa Hills. I'm sure the only reason they moved from Holmes' school district to Dixie's was so he could play for a different football team.
