Clyde Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Not at Boone Bounty Clyde-at the KHSAA. If they can't legislate against this type of switching schools, then let's eliminate the transfer rule altogether. I know you like to play the devil's advocate, but this rule is a joke and you know it. If the Beal girl wants to go to Boone-I say fine, but if Moss wants to transfer to Ludlow, then I say fine. Too many times the debates on BGP and outside of these forums have to do with transfers, and I say eliminate rules regarding transfers, and then that discussion is off of the table. If Crittendon transfers to Boone next year is that really a coincidence, or just a matter of the KHSAA not having the TEETH in their rules to prevent such a thing from happening? The truth is I am all for a kid going where they want to go for whatever reason. The bad blood starts because one kid is ruled eligible, one is not, and then lawyers get involved, and everyone says we are doing it for the kids.:puke: See other threads on here regarding Dunn in football, Mitchell in football, etc, and then to quote verse and paragraph out of the KHSAA handbook as we see many times on here as the justification is ridiculous. The KHSAA is a money making organization that is entrusted with the oversight of high school athletics in the commonwealth. Every state in the country has one, and in my opinion most are very weak, that are overruled when challenged by high powered and highly paid attorneys. Why do you like/defend them so much? (p.s. many of my examples using players names are completely hypothetical, but my opinions are not.) IF the KHSAA decides that they are going to have some sort of transfer rule other than "we don't care" then I'm not sure how else they can set it up. The residency change requirement seems adequate. Unfortunately, there are exceptions and maybe we don't know all of the details regarding the cases where the requirements did not seem to have been met yet they were ruled eligible. The young man from SK who went to HHS in 2003 comes to mind. Its not a perfect system. Other than the "one free" I'm not sure what the other realistic alternatives are.

3BREDS2B Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Minor has stepped down as the head coach. I would believe the Beal Family, brother will join sister, will remain at Holy Cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kentonman Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Minor has stepped down as the head coach. I would believe the Beal Family, brother will join sister, will remain at Holy Cross. According to the active 8th gradeTar Heels thread the Boy is headed to Beechwood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
History Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Minor has stepped down as the head coach. I would believe the Beal Family, brother will join sister, will remain at Holy Cross. A shame, because if the Indians had played their cards right, then perhaps they could have had Nicole Levandusky as the top boss, as she had helped Minor the year before at Holy Cross, and then headed to NDA. Who are the replacement candidates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voice of Reason Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 Pardon my ignorance, but did the Beal girl play in any varsity games at Holy Cross? If she didn't, she can go to any school she wants next year and play sports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger1 Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 I believe you are incorrect in your assumption. There is no caveat in the KHSAA guidelines that says "unless you're transferring to the school in the district of your residence." You are correct on the rules, but if her family would plead financial hardship because they can't pay the tuition at HC anymore, then she could possibly be eligible to play next year at Boone.

dixievb07 Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Minor has stepped down as the head coach. I would believe the Beal Family, brother will join sister, will remain at Holy Cross. Where is Shannon going, assuming he is still going to be coaching somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please see my post #10 in this thread. Now look I am not trying to offend this family if they are having financial trouble-so-but shouldn't the KHSAA look into this one if the girl transfers to Boone because of the financial trouble, but the boy pays tuition to go to Beechwood? This might be the greatest of all for the defenders of the KHSAA to argue. I will be waiting to hear their insightful replies.:popcorn: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3BREDS2B Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 Where is Shannon going, assuming he is still going to be coaching somewhere. At this point he will remain as a teacher. I would hope he has a chance to coach boys basketball somewhere in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 At this point he will remain as a teacher. I would hope he has a chance to coach boys basketball somewhere in the near future. If I remember correctly he didn't plan on being the head girls' coach at HC. He filled in when the previous coach left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFYBS Posted May 3, 2010 Share Posted May 3, 2010 I anyone would care to remember, I called this exact shot right at the girl's state tournament. I predicted Beal as a lock at Boone. What an easy call. What a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
