Will there be high school football this fall?

That may explain Randy Poe wanting to meet again.

Right, none of the people in this meeting outside of Commissioner Tackett want to move forward with fall sports and there is another no vote on the BOC coming in a few days if they are able to have another meeting/vote.

Mike Borchers speaking. 

Borchers was pedestrian but I think he definitely leans no on athletics.

I need to add Coach Alvis Johnson to the yes side in favor of moving forward with sports in addition to the Commish.

Commissioner Tackett is coaching everyone up a little more telling everyone the KHSAA has a plan. 

[theguru]

Randy Poe wants to know when out of town teams play each other when the players temps should be taken and who makes the final call.

Poe is also saying several NKY schools are canceling but I am not sure what he means.

Mike Bowling talking now.

His son is an assistant football coach at Middlesboro.

[theguru]

Bowling's son said look dad these kids are going to play football no matter what (my words) and that the kids are going to be much better off doing it at school.

Mike Bowling is a yes in my opinion. 

[theguru]

The Commish agrees with Bowling's summary of his son's opinion on kids being safer on the football team than on their own.  Same thing Coach Buchanan has mentioned. 

[theguru]

Randy Poe says he agrees with organization participation too BUT he wants to know about fans in the stands and he is on his Supers are victims crusade again.  

[theguru]

Commissioner Tackett reiterated that local school districts are going to have to decide what to do locally. 

[theguru]

1st priority is kids being able to play according the Commissioner Tackett, I agree Commish, good job today!

[theguru]

Sharon Robinson is not for local control and says it lacks courage and integrity. 

[16thBBall Fan]

It may sound like that some of the Superintendents may want the DOE to make the decision for them.

[theguru]

Sharon Robinson says they are obligated to do more work on this subject.  I guess that means more meetings.

Unreal! Its like I said 20 minutes ago just make a decision one way or the other and quit leaving our student athletes not knowing what is going on!
