October 21, 200520 yr A sad group on Board of Control to not back its member schools. Sad maybe, but sensible...
October 21, 200520 yr Sad maybe, but sensible... I did think it was interesting to show how split the state really is. 9-7 on the BOC. One vote from being evenly split on the issue. I have been wrong twice now. I did not think Prop 20 would pass and thought that the BOC would not recommend it by a wider vote. I believe it was Jesse James in another thread that mentioned that privates may not be realizing how much of an issue this is in throughout the state and how supportive of splitting the postseason rural counties are. I believe the vote showed that this is not an issue that is just coming from 1 or 2 areas but statewide has support.
October 21, 200520 yr Author A sad group on Board of Control to not back its member schools. Ummmm....the Private school ARE some of it's member school.
October 21, 200520 yr Go ask Jeffersonville HS in Indiana how Louisville privates recruit their 7th and 8th graders. I know this for a fact.
October 21, 200520 yr Most of the recruiting schools will be gone. Publics recruit too. Don't lump all the R word with the privates.
October 21, 200520 yr I know I'm surprised... that it was even close. The full board won't be such a nail bitter.
October 21, 200520 yr The Board of control voted it down 9-7. This per Jimmy Reed KFCA It's a shame that the BOC didn't follow the will of the member schools. But when did they EVER get one right.
October 21, 200520 yr I am hearing that the Board of Controls voted down the proposal 9 to 7. Anyone else have anything like this?
October 21, 200520 yr This amendment to the constitution was voted down today by the KHSAA board of control 9 - 8 with one vote being absent. But it still must go to State Board of Education to be voted on and they could go with delegate vote and overrule board of control, the governor and legislature will also have a say in the outcome.
October 21, 200520 yr It's a shame that the BOC didn't follow the will of the member schools. But when did they EVER get one right. Today.
