ST413 Posted January 31, 2018 Report Posted January 31, 2018 SISD reported this morning via Facebook that they have discovered that the girls basketball team has used an ineligible player in 5 district games. The matter has been reported and turned over to the district executive committee. Quote
HOTROD309 Posted January 31, 2018 Report Posted January 31, 2018 All that is.. Is someone not doing their job and being lazy.... Sad for the girls that have worked hard this season Alpha Wolf 1 Quote
WOSgrad Posted January 31, 2018 Report Posted January 31, 2018 This is sad in any case, but to have torn down all that these girls have accomplished is especially bad. Quote
ST413 Posted January 31, 2018 Author Report Posted January 31, 2018 Sad for the whole team but especially those seniors. Quote
Alpha Wolf Posted January 31, 2018 Report Posted January 31, 2018 Will 5 district losses make them miss the playoffs? Quote

hjhawks Posted January 31, 2018 Report Posted January 31, 2018 With 5 losses, they should still make the playoffs WOSgrad 1 Quote

Given that they are undefeated at this point, probably not. They would fall to 3-5 in the standings with the worst case scenario putting them tied in 4th with WO-S.....that being Silsbee drops to 3-5 and has to forfeit both of their wins to the Lady Mustangs which would move WO-S up to 3-5. Silsbee would still be favored to win their last 2 games which is not the case for WO-S. Alpha Wolf 1 Quote

The only bad part is instead of going in as the #1 seed and playing the #4 seed from another district, they'll go in as the #4 seed and play the #1 seed. Quote

I understand that, but in reality, the school that would really be hurt would be the #1 seed out of District 21-4A. Can you imagine that going into last night thinking you will play Bridge City and now you find out that you might be playing Silsbee in bi-district? EliteTiger and TxHoops 2 Quote
EliteTiger Posted January 31, 2018 Report Posted January 31, 2018 How does a coach not check the grades of their players? It's literally a click of the mouse!!! Quote
ST413 Posted January 31, 2018 Author Report Posted January 31, 2018 From what I have heard it’s sometimes a matter of when those grades are actually submitted.(sometimes they are late) Quote

What is in the teachers grade book at the deadline should be used. So an entire team has be punished because a teacher submitted her grades late? The administration on campus as well as that individual teacher should be punished for not doing their job, not the players. Why not take a snap shot of the grade book at the deadline rather than let a teacher click the submit button days after the deadline? Quote

The fault is within the school district just not sure which area of the school district. It’s truly sad. Tigers2010 1 Quote

Before we lay complete blame on the school, what about the student/athlete that actually failed? Shouldn't she know if she failed or not and not risk the team?

Tigers2010 Posted January 31, 2018 Report Posted January 31, 2018 Unless she was told of her final grade on Friday, or may even a few days before, do you really expect students to walk around knowing their average in every class. Over a 6 week period, there is not much of a difference between a 72 and a 68. Do you really expect her to know her final grade unless she was told by the teacher already? A teacher doesn't get her stuff in on time, costing the team 5 wins, and it is the parent of the players fault.... ST413 1 Quote

However they are kids and unfortunately will try to get away with things even in cases like this. That’s why the grades are or should be checked within the school. Naturally that starts with the Coach but then goes down to the submitting of said grade if it is or isn’t there. I don’t know that exact process so I am not going to say it is on either but it should be checked within the school to protect the team. Quote
ST413 Posted January 31, 2018 Author Report Posted January 31, 2018 One thing here. I am sure that this was probably a grade issue but has that been confirmed or is there any other possibilities? Quote

Especially if it was the end of the grading period. HOTROD309 and RETIREDFAN1 2 Quote

IF the teacher had no submitted the grades when the report was ran, the failing grade would not have been there, agree? The Coach checks the list, girl's name is not there, and he moves on. If the cutoff was Friday, which I assume they are, Coach probably ran the report Friday, over the weekend, or Monday. That or he was given one. The girls name wouldn't be there because her grade that is failing is not submitted yet.... how is that on him? Quote

There are probably a whole host of people that should've noticed this failing grade and notified whoever needed to know...but I'm thinking there must be more to this than we're being led to believe. Was the player not given the grading report? 5 games worth is a long time between grades being submitted and the kid/parent/coaches finding out that the kid was failing. Quote
