UIL Revisiting Transfer Rules


Recommended Posts

I guess I'm old school.  It's gotten out of hand, I think.  I believe in order for a student to play for a particular school, he must live in that school district.  I know there are some great athletes that live in a district where the football program is not good, and the kid would benefit in another school district a few blocks down the road or even in the next county.  It's a tough situation on the parents.

Ok. I might get some flack about this but imo I think if a student transfers in to a school he should sit out 1 year of all varsity sports. He must also live in the district in which he’s going to. He can play Jv are under just not varsity level the year he transferred in. They should not be any exceptions to the rule.

I read an article last year about a kid in Alabama that literally played one team on Friday, then a different team the following Friday without even moving.

 

If that's where we're headed, it won't be good.  

Alabama is a different story altogether... You may not have heard, but that same kid's parents are potentially brother & sister. 😂

It happened in Florida too, same year. Probably been going on for awhile over yonder.

    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
