I was looking on Facebook. I found the transfers pretty easy.

 

2 of them

Per Facebook, RJ West started class at Boone County this year for the Spring semester. He played quarterback for the freshman and JV team this past season at Cooper. It appears from Facebook that freshman RB/LB Jeremiah Williams has also transferred to Boone County. Both players saw varsity time playing for the Jags in the Cooper vs. Boone County game.

 

Coach Bryson Warner commented on both of the Facebook posts confirming that the players were at Boone County.

I didn't see anything about a third player leaving Cooper, and I'm assuming the third player would be the one with "quite a bit of V[arsity] time" as referenced by @Football Momma 1 up in post #22.

Zion Mason to CCH.

 

Cooper's number four receiver last year as a frosh. He only played in five games of varsity ball according to the KHSAA, and still was the number four receiver.

:popcorn: :popcorn:

Huge loss for the future. Good players, wish em the best.

Heard a freshman student transferred to Cooper from Cov Cath.

If it’s the same kid I’m hearing, his younger brother is a sure fire superstar. Huge get for CovCath if true.

So even though these players saw Varsity action do they automatically become eligible without a valid change of residence? Been out of the business awhile. Is that rule no longer in effect??

But he’s not at Cov Cath any more.

Who knows? The KHSAA seems subjective on transfers. The reasoning behind varsity players ruled eligible immediately is a mystery. If any of these players are ruled eligible without changing residency, the public and other students considering a transfer will not know why.

I would imagine a threat of litigation has that effect. Sometimes eligibility is granted for extenuating family situations. Not mine to know, just wondering.

You may be confusing two different kids here.

My quote above yours is just as it is written. No confusion on my part.

The rules changed 1/1/2019. People who think you can easily do what’s been done in past may be in for a surprise. You have to move and provide all kinds of information. No Dillon Panthers “put a mailbox up on a vacant lot” stuff either. Lol.

 

Biggest win for kids was you can play Varsity in any other sport other than the one you had Varsity experience in. And in the sport with Varsity experience, you can play JV. Neither of these were true pre 2019. If you had Varsity experience you had to sit all sports for 1 year. Now it’s just the sport you played in. 1 year from last Varsity experience. I looked it up. Article 6. And from what is online, you can expect to sit because “exceptions” would/could prove as precedent setting, and from people I talked to, the KHSAA changed the rule to get away from exceptions. And if you don’t have the school “losing” the players consent, you can forget about it. So, good luck to those who take the chance. It may not play out like you think........
