Faith Family is a joke.! They shouldn't be allowed to play in 4A.! They should be in that division with Concordia Lutheran.!

SETX has beaten this issue to death regarding Faith Family being allowed to play in 4A. It's time to move past the issue of Faith Family being allowed to play in 4A.  If The UIL doesn't have an issue with FF and they have not violated any rules let it go and build a team to beat them.  Please if anyone has any evidence that FF is cheating, submit it ASAP to the UIL if not let it go.  This statement is going to rub some people the WRONG WAY, Yates, Faith Family and Silsbee should be playing up in 5A with the talent level on those teams.  Regardless of where the players come from, if they are recruited or neighborhood kids, the talent level is different compared to teams in their division.  This monster team that Silsbee will have next year and beyond SHOULD be playing in 5A, because Bridge City, Lumberton, LCM, Orangefield and Vidor will not be able to compete with Silsbee.  Yes I understand that those players are from Silsbee community, but the fact remains the talent level isn't the same with Silsbee and those other teams in their division.   This is my personal opinion

Silsbee had a young man that wanted to return home to play for them years ago and the district voted him out and blocked him from playing for Silsbee which would have given the tigers a good possibility of winning a state title so the question is how can these teams recruit from their entire city with no problems but little towns like Silsbee gets the entire district voting against players transferring sure they have had kids that their parents went to Silsbee but sent them to other schools but when the parents decide to bring them back we get labeled here maybe it’s different in Houston San Antonio and Dallas but here other schools don’t like it their was lots of trouble from other schools when Silsbee won their first state title it should be fair across the board if faith family and Yates and other schools can recruit then why can’t Silsbee I could be wrong but that might be one reason why people get so upset about the recruiting and building super teams.

Private sector companies, entities want to take over public sector jobs and responsibilities.   FFA is private sector.  Public schools are obviously public.  Can't prove it, but you can follow the money. Money gets results. If you wanna make some money you gotta spend some money.  So those private sector guys lobby the state representatives.  The representative gets a fishing trip here, a nice hunting trip there,  a campaign contribution here, steak dinners at top restaurants, etc.  The end result basketball regulations get tilted in their favor.  People are always complaining about no prayer in schools, things of that nature.  So you wrap it all up in a religious facade, or pseudo religious facade, and voila you got a private sector basketball factory.

The UIL State Executive Committee does deny those schools you mention student-athlete appeals for varsity eligibility, upholding the previous ruling of the district executive committees.
