Anyone hear if he's been ruled eligible to play or not?

He was ruled ineligible on October 8th and hasn't practiced since then. I believe he is supposed to have a hearing sometime this week to see if he can play.

What was the reasoning to be ruled ineligible?

that was the last I heard, but knew he had a hearing coming up.

Why did he leave Pendleton? With Antrobus at Rowan he would've gotten a lot of playing time.

He has to prove that he did not move for athletic purposes, if I read the rule correctly, which is going to be hard to do. Also I don't think Pendleton County released him. Bylaw 6-2 says: "(1) these rules prevent and deter transfers due to recruiting or athletic reasons;" Full Bylaw: http://khsaa.org/handbook/bylaws/20152016/bylaw6.pdf

Pugh left before the school year was over last year. Antrobus didn't transfer until the summer.

yep. This will be pretty tough to prove in his case, I can assure you of that.

Makes sense now. Thanks bud.

He quit the team at Pendleton during the season last year. Draw your own conclusions about the reason for the transfer

I think he made the decision before Antrobus moved. Coach Belcher didn't play him due to attitude issues. Also, does anyone know the full story of what happened when Pendleton and Augusta played at Augusta?

As usual when it comes to transfer issues, I'm somewhere between confused and baffled. Tanner Pugh's family changes addresses between seasons and folks consider his eligibility unlikely; Marcus Mullins' family changes addresses between seasons and -- if I understand the chatter correctly -- folks seem to think he'll play this season at Newport. I must be missing something.

So, where does he end up next ??

Tanner Pugh played last year...started several games actually. There were no attitude issues. at all. Tanner quit because he wasn't happy with his role on the team. This is 100% fact.

 

NOTHING happened at last year's PC/Augusta game, which was at PC.Nothing. I can promise that.

You cannot transfer for athletic purposes...address change or not.
