NorthoftheBorder Posted August 10, 2011 Report Posted August 10, 2011 This is now common in that kids transfer high schools like kids transfer colleges. I thought that there was some UIL rules about this but it probably doesn't matter much anymore. Hard to enforce. The future could see HS kids being offered under the table money from a wealthy metro district booster club to transfer. Hey, it is not out of the realm of possibility in the world we live in. JMHO!
BADSANTA Posted August 10, 2011 Report Posted August 10, 2011 Been happening in The Woodlands, La Marque, and South Lake for Years my friend. The only thing is there isn't any proof. Lol

I wouldn't have any, just a hunch.

Gusher Posted August 10, 2011 Report Posted August 10, 2011 If the player moved to Silsbee how is this even news worthy? Now if he does not reside within the district that should peek some intrest within the community.
BADSANTA Posted August 10, 2011 Report Posted August 10, 2011 I heard he could really play on the court!

Transfers were rare 30 years ago. Another sign of the change in our culture.
