Yes, the rules state if an athlete is on the regular season roster then he would be eligible as stated in my post above. Sounds to me that the September 15th deadline is to get the teams involved moving and if an adjustment needs be made then the roster would need to be resubmitted with a verification of the change.

As to the rule being changed next year, it may or it may not. Let me beat the dead horse, as of now in varsity football play governed by the KHSAA all a transfer has to do is practice 5 times before being eligible to play after originally being cleared by the KHSAA. My guess is that it won't change much, the KHSAA barely has the manpower now to govern what they already have without adding on 50% more kids to the equation.

Consider this the death of middle school football next year.
Unless the KHSAA keeps a governing body to keep an eye on middle school football like the KMSFA, then consider middle school football to become a laughing stock.
