We always win the really tough games early, then lose them late in the season. Maybe this is that trend turning around... :)

We lose a game by 1 point and some of our fans start coming undone... You know, Ned came back on us in the 4th qtr in 2003 as well. It does not mean the walls are coming down.

[quote name="mfd814" post="1046300" timestamp="1314915358"] IMO this thread should be locked,  12 pages is enough talk of this young man, I think everyone that needs to know, knows he is not playing this year.  Just let it go. [/quote] Amen!!

Well if Cornel believes he really thought he was 18, then I believe cornel thinks that he thought he was 18. I know Cornel, I'm just glad that he went further with it and required a BC. As for JT, he's young and you don't know what has gone on with him, so I am not going to pass judgement. I will save that for the numerous haters, there ill be plenty of it to go around.

[/quote] OK, I gotcha, I can't say that I don't disagree with the timing thing, but the bottom line is it was addressed before they played.

They don't even dress out... But I'm not a coach, maybe he was... I don't know, but I thought he got hurt after two-a-days before the scrimmages.

I suggest you go on an unethical act crusade... LOL  ;D It gets to a point, like Ryker said, where somethings are just not our business. As long as the school did nothing wrong, then you should probably just drop it, or conduct your own investigation. ;)

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1045382" timestamp="1314797388"] Sorry, I was referring to a current/on going incident incident where an AD from a 3-A school ruled an incoming 9th grader (attending a 4-A school) ineligible for varsity and the two have never met ;) [/quote] You're talking about the HF kid going to PNG, huh? At least he is just a Freshman. He is good, but I doubt he would play varsity anyway.

[quote name="rykerx144" post="1045325" timestamp="1314764430"] Do we really need the smoking gun at this point??  My respect for Coach T has grown 110% in the past few days.  My hats off to him for cleaning things up.  Its not going to do any good to point fingers at this point.  The bottom line is the that the guilty party is no longer part of the program.  Whether it be the student, the parents, or the previous administration (which alot of you are alluding too but scared to just come out and say it) it doesnt matter because none of them are associated with the program anymore.  Again, hats off to ya Coach T, the kids and that program are lucky to have you on board now and you are without a doubt the right man for that job.  kudos!! [/quote] I agree with 100% of your post. I would like to add one clarification. It has nothing to do with the old regime.

[/quote] Question#6 on the 2nd page is the biggie! And for those who are asking about why he can't play this year when he enrolled last Spring. If question #6 is not checked "no". Then the student has to sit out 1 year from the date he enrolled to play varsity sports. This would make him elligible after the season.

That would probably be a better question for him as I tend to agree with you. Maybe, he got some bad advice along the line. I've also been informed that the transfer rules for the UIL pertain to the overall TEA rating, not that of 1 campus. The rating for the district is Acceptable. So I guess the transfer rule does not apply.

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="1045301" timestamp="1314760334"] [quote author=Gasilla link=topic=87429.msg1045297#msg1045297 date=1314759796] Probably because he transferred for athletic purposes, like the form asks. [/quote] Well actually, that is not exactly true (at least cannot be proven). Because the WOS High school has an unacceptable rating from TEA, it's my understanding that students can transfer out of that district. With this being his senior year and he moved to Beaumont to a 5A school from a 3A school, it would be hard pressed to prove he moved for athletic purposes. But, I do realize that it could be the case that you have mentioned, Gas. [/quote] You could be correct about that part AAW, I really am not sure how all of that works. But, as for why he REALLY moved, was absolutely 100% for athletic reasons.

Probably because he transferred for athletic purposes, like the form asks.

I think that is more Cornel giving the kid the benefit of the doubt. You would hate to think that a kid would lie to you about his age. Especially one that is typically a very good kid.

[quote name="dodiej" post="1044511" timestamp="1314676258"] Deleted by admin [/quote] If WOS was so full of BS then why did they declare the kid ineligible? Remember, he didn't play when he was 20, he played when he was 19... it happens a lot. If you don't want your lil bro playing against 18 and 19 yr olds then better tell mommy and daddy not to let him play on the varsity as a Sophomore. ...and I'm sorry, but there is nothing to "play out". The kid isn't playing, when he did, he was eligible to play. And, it's absolutely RIDICULOUS for someone to insinuate that this situation had anything to do with Dan retiring.

[quote name="liltex" post="1044379" timestamp="1314667653"] Recent changes have changed my pic to FW winning :-X [/quote] We haven't had JT all year...

Stardt, you are trying to make this an issue with the school. AAW is not. AAW, I agree with you, but that is another ball of wax that don't need to get plastered all over this site. All that matters is that WOS found out in time and did what they needed to. The rest really doesn't matter at this point.

[quote name="stardt" post="1044414" timestamp="1314670136"] WOW...so my 15-yr-old son, who was a sophomore last year, was playing against a 19-yr-old!!???  No wonder why WOS has been on top for so long.  I'm just wondering why it took so long for it to come up this year.  Last year should have been it for him, and those at WOS knew that!!!! [/quote] Last year WAS it for him... So what's the problem? And if your son plays varsity, I'd be willing to be he's already played against a 19 yr old or two this year. It's way more common than you think. And as for you comment about WOS knowing it, they had no idea until Friday... I'll leave it at that.

BC defense about to get exposed.

I used to think you were one of those select few that thought your opponents never won. I have since been convinced otherwise. If we lose, I find correctable mistakes, but still give credit where it is due. [/quote] I have never been one of those... It disgusts me when others do it to us and I find it equally disturbing when some of our fans do it to someone else. Bad calls happen and are as much a part of the game as injuries, that's why you handle your business so you don't leave things to chance. We didn't handle our business Friday and Ned made us pay. They always have and they always will. Furthermore, there are a bunch of these players who read these boards and hear these adults whining about being robbed by the officials creating a victim mentality in themsleves and the kids, completely losing any accountability for what happens. When you lose accountability you stop developing as a player and a team. When that happens you cannot improve. JMO

[quote name="sig220" post="1043465" timestamp="1314567267"] He was run out of Palestine because he was determined that the running back was going to do it Thomson's way. Team cratered.

Palestine has not been to a state title game since 1964. The best AD did in HS was 2 or 3 rounds...
