  1. I couldn't disagree more. If I have a child who is gifted in the arts and I can get them admitted to SCAPA in Lexington, don't I have every right as a parent to give my child that opportunity? If my kid is a great gymnast/cheerleader and I can afford to move into the Dunbar district (multiple national championships) don't I have the right to provide that opportunity for my child? There is a big stigma about transfering for athletic purposes, but I think parents should be allowed to provide their child the best opportunity possible. (This is also my argument that parents should be allowed to make the decision to hold their kids back without getting a bunch of flack from administrators or other parents/fans who choose not to take advantage of that rule)
  2. Looks like the Lady Indians are going to come up a little short tonight. Congrats on another great season. Good luck to Maggie wherever you end up going to college. Final 55-49 Franklin Simpson.
  3. 48-45 56 seconds left. Maggie Prewitt with a huge 3 to keep MC in striking distance. MC fouls.
  4. In the mobile society we live in today, it's my opinion that the KHSAA eligibility rules are the problem, not the parents who want to or have to move to a new area.
  5. Montgomery took a 1 point lead for about 5 seconds. 2:20 left FS is up 2 with the ball 44-42
  6. Not necessarily. Especially if the school he is leaving chooses to contest the transfer. Here are some hoops I would suggest anyone in this situation jump through: change your drivers license to have your updated address, sell the house you are leaving (if you rent it to someone else it raises questions with the KHSAA), don't sell the house on a land contract - use a mortgage company so that the title is legally transferred, change your voter registration, sleep in your new home every night, have all phone, cable, and utility bills put in your new name and sent to the new home address (not a P.O Box) I'm sure there are more things than this that have kept kids from being eligible, but these are the ones I know of. The KHSAA is not predictable and is inconsistant. Even when you move, you take a chance on losing a year.
  7. 38-31 with 1:22 left in the 3rd. Franklin Simpson leads.
  8. My grandpa told me not to kick a hornet's nest. I think that people can spin things however they want. Getting to the true heart of the truth is another story entirely. I know there have been talks of moving for quite some time now. My opinion is that if the Eutons didn't want to leave Rose Hill, Mr. Euton could easily find another job in Ashland. They wanted to go to a place that plays against better competition every night and I don't blame them. In fact, I support them. I hope someday I can give my sons the best opportunity available to them. If it takes moving to provide that opportunity, I'll do it. If to ensure they wouldn't have to sit out a year I need to lose my job, I'll do it. Whatever is best for them is what I'll do. IMO that is what is going on here. No, I'm not saying anyone is lying. Just posing the truth to benefit their own interests.
  9. 32-24 Franklin Simpson comes out of half-time hungry.
  10. No doubt - that's a scary thing. I don't think you can get 20,000 people in a basement. I hope it all stays ok.
  11. The kid at Lex Cath used to go to Lafayette but "moved" and was immediately eligible. Lafayette and Catholic are less than 1 mile from each other.
  12. I think she teaches PE at one of the elementary schools.
