True family moved in (key word moved) prior to Jake's 7th grade year. I wouldn't say he was an impact player at the Varsity level at that age. Just face it, their starting lineup will consist of 3 kids who all attended other schools, transferred in and were immediate impact players at the varsity level. McClendon played varsity for Holmes his frosh year and then transfers in, starts as a soph. Avery plays Jr high ball at Holmes, transfers in and starts Varsity as a frosh. Campbell attends Cincy schools and then transfers in the first week of November. Hmmmm very interesting.

 

Its all legal I'm sure as they use the Catholic school angle but lets be honest here, they are building a basketball team here.

Give me a break! Like no other High School has had tranfers come in and play. The Mclendon family has been at Holy Cross since the late 1970's. Ed Mclendon graduated in 1979 or 1980 if memory serve me correctly. I know for a fact that other coach's try to get kids to come to their school's when they are in the 7,8 and 9th grades.

It's about time they started this back up again. Tough to compete with all the other schools recruiting kids if you're not.

If you don't think the True's moved for sports than you are kidding yourself, at that time Jake was a star for the NKYFL Spartans and then just happened to move to Fort Thomas.

I know for a fact they moved for sports but in the 7th grade. It's a little different.

Sorry next time we can have them move a year or two early so it is okay.

If you are following the rules and want to move to a new school district. I don't see a problem with it. It happens... kids don't like a coach, or style of play or competitive issues.

According to Slick Rick Broering at NKYsportsblog.com the Campbell boy is practicing but will not the state hasn't approved him yet. May be through Christmas.

 

 

So is it legal for a student who isn't approved to play by the KSHAA yet, to practice with the team?

 

KHSAA link

 

Bylaw 9 Other Eligibility Requirements and Regulations

(Sec. 2) Practice of Ineligible Students

Unless ineligible due to the provisions of Bylaw 11 (Sportsmanship,

having been ejected from a contest), any student who is not eligible for

competition during a team’s next contest/meet/match/game shall not

practice with the team.

 

 

So if I am reading the rule correctly, it is against the KHSAA rules for the kid to practice with the team, until he is approved by the KHSAA for play.

Fair enough I get that.

Lol, yeah you gotta find these kids sooner.

Cambell is not practicing with the team. i know this for a fact.

^^^^^

Well according to your boy Rick Broering at NKYsportsblog.com or at least what Clyde posted that Rick wrote (post #55) Campbell is practicing and you know Rick is never wrong about anything, just ask him....:sssh:

Holy Cross says the kid is not practicing.

I heard this morning 6'7 Transfer Antonio Campbell has been cleared and will start practicing with the Indians. Can anyone confirm this?
