Why is this? Either the player legal age wise or he isn't. I can think of no reason as far as age goes that having a birthday would prevent a player from finishing the season.

You cant play high school football if you turn 19 before Aug 1st of your senior year.
This is why its stupid to hold kids back no matter the reason because if they do end up failing another grade or gets hurt, than they will lose there senior year.

As for the poster who was talking about whitley, I know Meece has had kids that looked like a high school team playing for them over the past 10 years.
I remember watching Whitley play them in 01 or 02 and there was no way those kids were in middle school.
It could have been that they had the freshman team play or whatever, but in the end it doesnt matter to me. Its high school that it has to translate to and either you got the atletes or you dont, its that simple on the high school level, and middle school is just a stepping stone.
