Transfers Between High Schools Policy

BGP does not permit general discussion or commentary regarding transfers of student-athletes between high schools.

The use of the terms “transfer portal” or “portal” to describe high school student-athletes is prohibited in all high school forums.

The only transfer-related information permitted on BGP is basic factual information confirming that a student-athlete has transferred from one high school to another. Such information may include the student-athlete’s name, sport/position, former school, and new school.

Other than the basic fact of the transfer itself, no discussion, commentary, analysis, speculation, opinion, comparison, explanation, or reference to transfers is permitted.

This prohibition includes, but is not limited to:

• Discussion of why a student-athlete transferred or may have transferred.

• Discussion of the effect of transfers on a school, team, program, coach, or community.

• Comments suggesting that transfers are the reason a team or program is successful or unsuccessful.

• Comments suggesting that a team, school, or program has benefited from, been harmed by, gained from, or lost because of transfers.

• General statements or opinions about transfers, transfer activity, or the impact of transfers on high school sports.

• Comparisons between schools, teams, or programs based on transfers or transfer activity.

• Comments using transfers to support, explain, criticize, or otherwise make a point about a school, team, program, coach, player, or high school sports generally.

• Any speculation, inference, or commentary regarding the circumstances or reasons for a transfer.

• Any discussion, suggestion, or implication of recruiting, inducement, eligibility issues, or rule violations in connection with a transfer.

• Attempts to indirectly discuss, question, interpret, or characterize a transfer or transfer activity.

A transfer may not be used as a subject, example, explanation, justification, comparison, argument, or supporting point in any discussion on BGP.

For purposes of this policy, the fact that a transfer has occurred does not make the transfer itself an acceptable topic for general discussion. The permitted exception is limited to reporting the basic factual information that the student-athlete transferred from School A to School B.

No discussion of rumored, possible, anticipated, or unconfirmed transfers is permitted. No additional discussion is permitted simply because a transfer has been officially completed or publicly confirmed.

This forum is not the venue for reporting or debating KHSAA violations. If you believe a violation has occurred, report it directly to the Kentucky High School Athletic Association (KHSAA).

No false, unverified, or misleading information may be posted.

Bump.

Connor Morguson has indeed transferred back to GRC. Seems as the 56th District is wide open now.
