If they rule him ineligible again it kind of makes it senseless for the KHSAA to even have a hearing judge. What's the purpose?
The parties involved probably provided the same information the first time to the KHSAA, then the identical info the second time to the hearing judge, with the KHSAA now looking at the same stuff for the third time. Why waste the time and effort of a judge if they're not going to use his recommendation?

True, but it is more likely for a judge to be biased towards a school or have so called friends from a school making phone calls to him for favors. Atleast a board panel consists of several people to vote on it. Has there has ever been a case in which the judge says eligible and the KHSAA says ineligible?
