You are right in that he will not be able to play until the KHSAA says he can, and if they think there are unusual circumstances in his move from Powell to Estill, like it's not a family custody issue but for the purpose of playing basketball due to his dislike of the new coach and his methods, then they have all the power in the world to rule him ineligible. However, after the rulings on the transfers to Scott County from Rose Hill and Boone County, I doubt he will be ruled ineligible. It may take some time for him to see action in an Engineer uniform, maybe a month or more. But he will probably be allowed to play.

On a side note, the KHSAA has opened up a whole can of worms with their Scott County rulings. I'm afraid their future decisions will have to be fairly liberal on transfers. They've set a precedent with their Scott rulings and now it would really look bad to hammer the little guys while permitting the big schools to slide by with little said. Crowe has probably caught them at the right time.

All of the Scott Co transfers made bonifide change of address by their entire families moving. Not just to the county next door after quiting a team for not playing the second half of a scrimmage game. All had valid and work related reasons for the move.

I truely hope he is eligible to play but if you look at bylaw 6, I don't think there is any way he will be ruled eligible. If he has to go through the appeal process, it will take no less than 3 months and maybe 4 months for him to become eligible.

Once again, I hope they do rule him eligible but in my opinion, he is going to have a problem getting eligible at Estill Co.
