Southlake-Carroll caught up in cheating scandal

I say go after anyone who cheats, but for cryin' out loud, stuff like this has been rampant across Texas for years. Why such a big deal all of a sudden about this one kid? I am willing to bet someone with UIL connections is a direct rival of SL Carrol. No matter though, bust 'em anyways!

Uhm... this guy might be losing, if I read correctly. I wish the UIL would have enough nerve to go after all the ones who live with their "aunt". The Katrina mess was horrible, too. There was reports of an impromptu "combine" being held by coaches in the Astrodome parking lot with the refugees...

What else can you say?The senate gives themselves a nice raise in cost of living behind closed doors only to slam the door on the elderly,disabled and retired folks by claiming an increase was not in order as the cost of living went down.DUH where at?I say clean it all up top to bottom let the guilty get they're justice.Who said gambling wasn't allowed in Texas lol

How can this man own his own business, he has no common sense. The situation was simple to cover up, put the house on the market for like 100 million, that way no one will buy it and just stay in long term hotels for work purposes. This is typical of some of the higher powered schools though, cheating for their own gain. I remember hearing about a D1 prospect from New Orleans coming to Lumberton during Katrina and yet he ended up playing for another unnamed school. (Unnamed in case I'm actually wrong, you know how you hear things and it was in another classification.)

I feel bad for all of the players from SLC that have been following the rules, and yet they may be impacted by this.You have to feel bad for the families of the players too. I know that cheating,rule bending, etc. go on--but I believe the majority of the players are following the rules and still must deal with issues like this. :'(

Whats starting to scare me is there are about 3 posts on this page saying what the kid/parents should have done to make it "okay". I wonder why the kid didn't just play in his hometown of Choctaw? By the way, you can see where the kid gets his arm from, the Dad put some zip on that bag of ice! OUCH!

This incident reminds of the mailbox in front of the empty lot in Dillon that Buddy Garrity put up!
When this nefarious plot was found out, Luke had to quit the Panthers and enroll at East Dillon.

Rumor has it the backup qb parents leaked this out to the news and they went with it.  That said, I feel for the kid.  I had heard that he was ruled in eligible by Oklahoma because the school failed to file the necessary transfer paperwork?  If this was any other school than SLC, this would not have been a story, but because he is a highly ranked qb and transferred to SLC, wfaa decides to go on a crusade.  Pretty sad imo.

The family is appealing the decision...I think they will end ruling him eligible in the end
[/quote]i dont know, that district they're in doesnt want him there

Not sure what district Keller is in, but of the 7 votes, all 3 yes votes were from Keller. 

On a side note, everything I hear is that even with Daxx @ qb, SLC is not as good as they have been in years past.

    • Well Mustang fans it's time for my annual end of season rant. I've had so much company up here on the soapbox that I may have to start charging rent. After 3 years I don't think anything needs to be said. We all know what's wrong. We all know why. So what's the decision at the next board meeting? IMO, there's been enough imaginary success for the board to rubber stamp the Superintendent's vision for our future student athletes. #make every second count Due to soft scheduling and a weaker than normal district. The luck of knocking off 2 ranked opponents early when they were not healthy or still trying to figure it out. Also led to a premature ranking and a hollow DCTF weekly award. The 2 late season losses vs ranked teams proves what we know has been the biggest problem.  Football 19-15 .559 Baseball 9-35 .205 Basketball 19-35 .352 GBB 11-29 .275 Softball 1-22 .043 Volleyball 0-38 .000 Overall 59-174 .253   For anyone living in the district, I ask that you contact you're elected board members publicly and privately. Don't let them think this is exceptable. Be the solution to the equation. Not the divisor. This starts at the top and falls heavily upon those walking the halls. They deserve better.
    • I don't think it's 6-5 maybe 4-3
    • Sounds like a good idea, and something’s been needed for a long time. I know—where my kids & grandkids live now (DFW area)—schools are like revolving doors for athletic purposes. I don’t think the DPISD & LPISD option enrollment are anywhere like that. I assume it’s pretty above board since it was an arrangement apparently agreed to also by the state. I do know some kids that went to LPISD elementary schools in DP chose to go to DPHS because of the district rating. (Of course, at the time, DPISD and DP in general wasn’t very racially mixed like La Porte.) LPISD has a high number of kids on assistance programs compared to DP. Say what you will, it does make it more difficult for educational purposes and scores can reflect as much. LPISD is still rated high even with that challenge. Some of the kids that chose DPHS were very solid athletes that I’m sure LP would love to have had attend LPHS. Of course, part of the big rivalry between DP & LP has always been because DP ‘looked down’ on LP even though we worked side-by-side. Now that Shell DP refinery has been sold to PEMEX, DP is changing. Some aren’t happy about it. Some of us in LP are kinda tickled about it after the history.
    • Got my hotel booked...an hour away. They're having some kind of Light festival, so busy times in Nat.
