IMO there must be a loyalty to your school, I guess I'm "old school", where a transfer wasn't allowed under any circumstances. Both of my sons had the opportunity to transfer but both wanted to be Musketeers and felt a loyalty toward their friends and their school. Seems to me that usually it's the parents removal of a child from school not the child removing hisself. I agree about kids being in a negative environment but not all of Greenup Football has been negative, there has been some outstanding players play this past year at GCHS.

 

I agree, loyality is something you have to learn at an early age, you can't just get up and move when things get tough in real life, at least not without serious consequences.

Then how do you justify the transfer the QB heir apparent. The negativity is gone and the transfer still occurred before the new coach was hired. This was in fact a traitorous act.

 

This had nothing to do with athletics, please do not comment on this subject with this kid, when things come out everyone will understand and even then it will not be for discussion on this forum, I assure you.

When will the new coach get to start? Some things need to start right away ,we are falling behind every day he is not here.

 

Matt and Chris are working on that very hard and I can tell you that Coach Copley is ready to come, yesterday...

Does anyone know who might be the kicker for this season?I believe this is a important poistion that Sammons seemed to overlook.Sometimes this can win or lose a game. Something for the new coach to think about.

 

We have a few soccer players that are very interested, we had them lined up to try out last year and for some reason they didn't get picked up, don't know the whole story there but I do know we have at least one soccer player in each grade that is interested, I have spoken to them personally, all coach has to do is ask them to come out and lay his ground rules, our soccer coach is also willing to let this take place.

Rut row, someone better call all those immigrants and tell them they can't run away from the problems in their home countries, the civil war, slavery, and other acts of cruelty and tell them they have to go back and suck it up, you can't run away in "Real Life".

 

I know that is extreme, but student transfer from schools all the time, and each has their own reasons, real or perceived. You can't make students stay at your school, and you can't control who comes to your school from other schools (to an extent).

 

Just wish the boy well and move on.

Nice post, All Heart, I kinda feel the same way. They decided to leave and gave up on the guys they had worked and sweated with since 2nd grade and went to a rival. Im not sure I could let that slide if I was on the team.

 

I would give them a second chance Coupon, things were tough and each kid is a seperate case, as I stated in a post earlier, loyality is big in my book too, but I think some of these kids are ready to come back, Jett Troxler being one of them, he hasn't played a down at Raceland and we need him back in the Green, Black and Gold...

Just saying the act was classless. As for it not being discussed, sorry its a forum and not out of bounds. You move, prepare to answer the questions, especially when you make such a plea to the BOE. My take is GC could protest this move and win if they really wanted to take it that far.

You don't know what the deal is and if you did you'd change your tune, believe me, I'd be the first person to raise heck about this if I didn't know what the real issue was and like I said, if you knew you would lay off this issue.

Never happen, Raceland will take from others but they would never give back.

He has a "Bonafide Change of Address", end of story, if Greenup protested it they would lose, and that is exactly what Matt Baker said.

Maybe not but he is going to know we want him back, I can assure you of that one...

I know the issue and by all rights and the law he should (and if the KHSAA has any say so) be at Mason County.

Seems odd, a student moves into the Raceland district and enrolls in Raceland schools, but Raceland "Took". I think if a student moves into the district Raceland has to take them.

 

And, I laugh as I ask, what should Raceland give?

"Bonafide Change of Address" is OK but custody/guardianship is another matter.

KHSAA has all the say so in this matter... You must be drinking tonight or something..
