Your not too big you can't fall.  Just crazy

I thought it was the girls basketball program under fire........ Wow

[expirate20]

What's up with the timing on this?  Don't you have to be deemed eligible before you play?  If he played, then why didn't they have to forfeit before the playoffs ever started? Strange......

This should explain it:

Per the Dallas Morning News, The ineligible player — Anthony Black, now a freshman at Arkansas — transferred to Duncanville from Coppell last summer,

Word out of Arkansas is that Black is a star.  Possible lottery pick after this year.

He really is.

I'm not really surprised at this ruling. They took a chance and it didn't work. 🤷🏾‍♂️

Let the transferring away from Duncanville begin now?

Which Private School recruits the best, or what college can offer the most NLI money to get them in college sooner.

Recruits the best..! Faith Family Academy..! IMO

[Tigers94]

Looks like the party is over.

All those players about to run elsewhere. It's gonna hurt as a Tiger fan if FF is stripped though. Just imagine how Atascocita basketball is feeling right now. That's how Tigers fans are gonna be feeling.

I guess BU has a good shot in 6A after all now.

He needs to at least play this season for Arkansas before deciding all that.

I hope to see them start to enforce this more statewide.  It's such a massive problem in Houston and Dallas.

Peavy is now married to Black's mother, which was an interesting factoid I just read.

That is what can be called “Elite Recruiting Skills” by Mr. Peavy 😎

Restraining order is a joke.

Guy on Facebook, Melvin Dews raised an interesting scenario.  The Univ. of Texas created the UIL  So there is a definite connection between the two.   When the appeal was still unresolved UT was in the running to recruit Anthony Black.  Black chose Arkansas. The appeal did not go in his favor.  If Black had chosen to take his basketball skills to UT would the result of the appeal still be the same?  Probably, but who knows for sure?   Interesting question just the same.

Charter schools are under different rules and their geographical area covers multiple neighboring cities in the DFW.

Melvin is way off on the facts.

There is no conspiracy.

UIL ruled the player ineligible in September. He and his mom filed a temporary restraining order to keep the UIL from upholding the ruling. A court allowed the order until the Supreme Court could rule on it. The SC threw the order out so therefore the player became ineligible again. Player, mom and coach all knew he could be ruled ineligible but chose to play the player anyways.

UIL under these circumstances had to make this ruling.

These conspiracy theories about UT influencing these type decisions for the UIL is laughable.

I'd say put the whole Dallas ISD under investigation at this point.

The age old question... is it better to be fired for cheating or fired for losing. I'm certainly not condoning anything and never will... but... Every single school within the large city areas is trying to attract kids to play for them.  Schools openly try to increase enrollment numbers for funding by providing a "better education".  I personally think it's different but like I said, they're all doing it in some form or fashion.  Even according to UIL's own bylaws you can bring in kids from out of the school's district as long as they wait one calendar year to play varsity athletics.  That makes it ok? LOL. .
