Youâre the one talking about Elementary school kids. Â What Iâm saying is that there are kids who play Jr School ball in GCCISD and then transfer into BHISD/GPISD/LPISD/DPISD between 8th and 9th. Â Doing so means no PAPF/eligibility questionnaire and they get to play Freshman/JV, work out with the team, etc. and look homegrown because they transferred before freshman year. Â itâs a loophole. Â All the big programs do it. Â Thatâs why the UIL rules changes, to close up the 8th-to-9th transfer portal, and it isnât even taking effect until Aug 1 2025 so youâll see these transfers this summer.
Also, as far as BHISD being closed instead of open, just look at the GCCISD transfer numbers I posted. Â GCCISD loses twice as many kids to BHISD per year, the âclosedâ district, than they do to the open Districts in the area. Â Anyone who lives here knows folks whoâve used MeeMawâs address to get their kids in there. Â It is what it is and if it wasnât, UIL wouldnât be changing those rules and sending one of their own to the DECs now would they?
Â
Go ask Coach Abseck how many kids in his program are 8th Grade transfers. Â We know that at North Shore that number is at least 20% because of the numbers they had to provide UIL during their recruiting investigation. Â Iâll bet BHISDâs numbers are AT LEAST that. Â Again, THEY ALL DO IT. Â
According to Texas Tribune, Gccisd, Laporte and deer park are all rated B. Barbers Hill is an A.
GC has a higher 4 year graduation rate than LP or DP.
BH is far and away the best district on this side of town.
GC has a much higher percentage economically disadvantaged at 71.7% with LP being next closest at 52%.
Surprised that GC is performing so well considering.
All of the players that would likely make a great football team are out by GCM and Sterling. If GCM had Lee's coach and dropped back down into 5A division 1, they would be able to compete very well against BH and LP. I don't know what their problem is with getting the athletes to gel into an actual team.
Lee still beat them both this year and was sort of a down year by Lee's standards. Lot of injuries some kids moved out of district and they are paper thin as it is.
