What the hell is the story here?
 
Did Hendersonville give him the expectation that he would be fine before transferring or did he already have an idea this was possible? Hopefully they were upfront that nobody knows what the TSSAA will do so think about this decision before coming over. I know alot of times people will tell these kids what they want to here to get them there and worry about eligibility later. Hopefully that wasn't the case here

I don't know. He's got so much support as a football player, you'd think the people around him would tell him it's a bad idea

Agreed. Whether the rule is silly or not, it's still in effect and it's a rule set forth by the same agency that would decide on said rule. The fact that a hardship application had to be applied and from all reports everyone seemed like he would be perfectly fine is somewhat puzzling to me.

I don't know the entire story as to why he enrolled at HHS, but you're right VBN, you would think someone would have said something.

Unless Mom gave them the address she was moving to before she actually moved, it probably had nothing to do with Hendersonville. The tssaa says they didn't move far enough away from previous address or school. They say it's 18 miles as the crow flies.....even though it's 20 something miles away when you, ya know, drive.....on roads. apparently 20 miles is the magic number, but you have to have a crow to measure it correctly.

That's what we're trying to figure out. I just hate it for the kid.

As silly as it sounds, I think that is what it is about. Straight line distance.

You 2 guys are talking a bunch of jibberish. In what other state is it illegal or against the rules to transfer private to public or from one county to the next. Definitely not the ones surrounding TN. The kid's mother had to find a place to live and it was not feasible to get him to FRHS. He live far from his old address and in a different county. Why would "we" the ppl around him think to tell him or his mother this is not a good idea to move and change schools with a plan to EE? Only the tssaa does dumb s&#t like this not in KY, Miss, Ala, NC or Ga.

I thought for a second you were talking to me......had to read it a second and third time before I realized you were saying the same thing as me......lol.

I need more coffee.

tssaa is a bunch of asshats.
 
My wife is a FRHS alum and my father in law is on the board of directors and I was told FRHS doesn't allow kids to graduate early. So if JW wanted to be an EE, that was obviously off the table had he stayed at FRHS.

As i reportedto you guy long ago this is a real rule. Using a crow in reference to distance over the distance in a car. This shows how far behind ourstate athletics are. Its furthermore why TN athletes have bn over looked too and why our athletics aren't taken seriously. But hey he'll still finish #1 in the state we're deciding whether or not the file in court to help future players, and nullify this dumb ass rule.
