Let me get this straight now. Ashland whines when Rose Hill and others get transfers and apparently from the tone of these posts everyone else whines when Ashland gets a transfer.....Gotta Love it..........

You are apparently not familiar with the Sixteenth Region. All schools recruit to one degree or another. That is not unlike the other fifteen regions. That is fact.

Dozerdawg707, one who is obviously familiar with the region, expresses the feeling of many in the area. The fact is that, while all schools indulge, only Ashland plays the "holier than thou" role. If you look at history, Ashland is the primary "indulger". Check the history of their rosters.

While no one tends to report information on Ashland, Ashland runs to receptive ears at KHSAA at most every opportunity. So you may ask why the other schools don't unload on Ashland? The answer is most believe that KHSAA won't be particularly receptive. Right or wrong, that is the perception from what I have been told.

Therefore, the reason posters take shots at Ashland is because Ashland is seen by many as an arrogant hypocrite. And, unlike Ashland, most of the other schools will admit their indulgences from time to time.

Anyone believing Leaping Lee's spin on how the Dixson boy got from Huntington to Ashland is naive at best and stupid at worst.
