Just for the record, a "judge" did not preside over this appeal, a "judge" will be the next step, when he is rightfully ruled ineligible. That will be in Franklin Circuit Court, may be the reason for the choice of the atty., that represented a player from a "rival" school, but " The rules are the rules!!!!" The rules must be applied equally to ALL players, that, being said, KSHAA must tread very carefully in this matter, truth is, the kid was academically ineligible in his home state, doesn't matter about the move, or any other "improper" issues surrounding his transfer. He may gain academic eligibility after the first semester, but we shall see.....

If you have been watching the khsaa for the last few yrs you would know that he did go in front of a RETIRED judge. He was not ineligible in the state of NY because the rules there are much different than here, so until you know the rules of highschool bball in NY you shouldnt speak things that arent true. I agree with you on one thing, all the kids must be treated fair!! If that happens in this case the kid will be released to play by the khsaa very quickly.
