Exactly

For those of you who have always followed every rule ever imposed on you..... Those of us who didn't have had way more fun I promise... Yes, laughing out loud...

I do appreciate this answer from you. It was just a hypothetical situation though... And it wasn't about sports till it was said " bring him down and let him check out the school and our athletics ". I am not arguing with you about the rules, just saying that most don't know them. ( parents) I could not tell you if any school is breaking the rules. In this thread I have never once tried to dispute that. Just trying to get all the rules and facts I can so I am better educated on this matter.

That's why I'm asking, so those of you who do know can fill the rest of us in. But if you can honestly say that you wouldn't bend a rule a little to help your child try and achieve a goal in life, I would have to call you a liar. I'm not talking about getting tuition paid or getting recruited along with others from the same school. Just a few simple words. Yes there are rules for good reasons. But sometimes the people who make the rules don't have the interest of the majority at heart.

Im sure you have followed every rule that has ever been presented to you ...

I was asking legitimately. If you could, answer all the questions I asked.

Love how you did your best to not answer my questions? But to answer yours; no it would not be alright for 5 players from same school to get invited to another school for open gym or any other thing that could recruit them. But if joe Smith was talking to the principal and coach at school xyz on day at the gas station and telling them about how his kid was not doing well at the school he was in, and joe Smith was thinking about enrolling him in a private school, what would be wrong with them saying" bring him down after this school year is over and let him check out the school and see what our athletics are about"? I could see not doing it during the school year. And how Smith approached them, not the other way around.

I would never want things to go down this way. A peaceful protest would be much better. Which it was at the start. But to label them "traitors" is going way to far. All im saying is you don't have the right to call them anything without knowing the facts.

I was just using that as an example. But your right a little humor is good

Do you think that permission will be given if asked? If that answer is always yes then why would you need to ask? If there is a possibility of a " no " when asked, then why would you ask at all? If you ask and get no as a response, then your child could face repercussions from the coaching staff or other faculty for even hinting that you are looking to go to another school. And I will bet that 99% of the kids that transfer from public to private are doing so for the education more than anything.

And it could have been a lot shorter had someone just said what they meant by the title of the thread and someone else who seems to know almost everything about would have just stated all the facts up front. But I guess we wouldn't have anything to talk about then, would we.... Lol

Traitors? You call them traitors for standing up for someone who they thought was wronged? I don't know all the facts. Neither do you and I'm betting no one on here does. So to come to any conclusions is not even an educated guess as to what really took place from start to finish out there.

So if my friend and his wife decide that their child is miserable at Dixie, not excelling at sports or academics like they know she is capable of, and are thinking of taking her to Cov Cath after this school year is over, then they need permission from Dixie to go talk to anyone at Cov Cath?

So where do the other 49% come from? And why would someone choose to send their child to a private school after being in a public school for so long before?

How does that work for a private school? Most who attend do not live in that district, so when making that choice to go to a particular private school, you are not allowed to get a up close look at the athletics because they are not allowed to do anything with you during the summer months? I don't believe sports should be the sole reasoning for choosing a school, but it can be some part of it.

Just think how much could have been avoided if you would have just said that in the beginning..... Not that it tells us what the allegations are, but at least would have let everyone know what the thread was about. Instead everybody beats around the bush for 300+ posts.

Like the weather updates.

I'm pretty sure I asked that already and got no response......

Guess what? Most of us still don't have the details or know the seriousness of this. Truthfully I think this thread should have never been started until after the khsaa says they have reached a judgement. And you would have been better off not posting anything on here about the subject if your not willing to give up all the info you know. Just my opinion.

I don't understand why some of you are basically saying that there are rule violations and investigations without just coming out and saying it! If you are not the one making the accusation then why not just say it? What rules or laws would you be breaking by just saying " holy Cross is being accused of------------ and is being investigated by the khsaa and the following schools are involved in one way or another: ---------------. What would you have to lose if what you are saying is true? IMO if your not willing to say something and back it up, then you shouldn't say anything at all. If you are a part of what is going on then you def should have never said anything at all. Sounds like the little girl at school who says " I know something you don't know" but never says another word! So in other words what was the point of this thread?

Maybe there is something going on at a lot of schools.... But this thread was directed at one in particular. Just wanted to know the exact allegations and who it concerned being some of you seem to know this. And if your not willing to share that info then why the thread to begin with?

You would think those who know so much about this would tell those of us who don't EXACTLY what's going on.

How many attorneys do we have on this site? How many looking at this and scratching their heads?

I don't see how anyone can start this thread or support it with out offering some proof. And what I read when I paid my money and joined this site says that this thread should have never been started period. But ok it's here. And in a court of law you have the right to know your accuser.... So if this should ever go that far I hope those that are not afraid to accuse are not afraid of revealing themselves because you will have no choice. And false accusations can be dealt with in a court of law....

That's one of the problems with this country.... To many people worried about being politically correct! Do I agree with some of trumps statements? No. But I don't agree with everything the others say as well. At least he has balls. Something Obama and most of this country don't have.
