You got homers that will immediately say that you shouldn't be eligible and at all costs should stay put. What is wrong with that is when you apply that same logic to the real world with the politics involved in today's jobs and school boards and real life situations, I ask that same person, how many jobs have you or your family came home lately and told you that something isn't right and they are struggling at a workplace because of politics which is sorta like Daddy ball in sports or the transfer portal as we now call it. Well, the reality is, every student athlete is not going to fit in with a said staff at a school. Just a fact. That kid should not be punished if that family and student decides to go try another school that is within the district or outside the district. I have seen a lot of situations and talked to parents of transfers and know what was said. Why they up and left. Now in the example given above, its a loophole affect apparently. No way I can make that make sense. But that fact is, if little Johnny is living in London, Ky in the middle of town and his parents can drive him to either school North or South Laurel, that family should be able to go to whatever school they choose. This garbage of what happened when I was in school is over 30 years ago. We aint going back, the world is changing and moving forward. We aint playing on cow pastures anymore, today they are building million-dollar facilities and guess who is paying for that, it sure aint gate money. It comes out of all our pockets ultimately. If that is the case and you can be ruled eligible, then every kid who wants to transfer needs to immediately sign up online and go to the said school of there choice and live right where you live at which honestly should be the way it is anyways.
Not every kid transfers because they are a stud athlete, 1 kid may never see the field on a team they play for, they may live in a driveable distance to play for a school who needs a few more players and that kid should not be held back. Plus, what if a kids family hits hardship and they have to move a short distance and live with another family member, its in another district and all of a sudden they lose a year. Today one minute you can be on top of the world and the next minute in hardship.
If in reality everything was done legit, I would be all for accountability in transferring but when you read the papers and the news and see all the behind the scenes made up jobs and pay and positions and fraud and buddy system in who you know then why get mad when a kid transfers.
Coaches go to other teams.
Teachers go to other schools to work
Parents travel to other counties to work and states.
All switch jobs all the time.
Make sense of that. Its called reality.
Thats my 2 cents worth. Im going to drink some coffee
