I know it is a crap shoot…but someone please try and explain this to me. 

Student-Athelete A: 

Has always attended a school out of his residential district (literally .5 mile beyond that territory). Shows interest in transferring to the school within his own residential district, but is told he would need a change of address in order to be granted instant eligibility at the new school. Or, lose a year of eligibility by transferring without a COA. Simply put The student would need a COA in order to be Eligible to play for a school that is already where he is “technically” supposed to be at anyway based on his address. 

Student-Athelete B:

Has always attended the school within his residential district, but then enrolls on line to a school out of the district and is instantly granted eligibility. 

I am an advocate of kids being able to go where they want to learn and play ball. They shouldn’t be punished if a situation is better for them somewhere else. And fact that there are different rules for each and every circumstance, especially circumstances that happen away from the Louisville or Lexington area, baffles me.
