trublue 939 Report Share Posted December 8, 2017 Four high school championship games postponed; moved from Atlanta / AJC Four of this weekend’s eight GHSA football championship games, the first to be played in the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium, have been postponed because of the winter weather that moved through north Georgia beginning Friday morning. The first two games of the championships, in Class A (private) and AAA, were played Friday as scheduled, but the Class AAAAA final between Warner Robins and Rome, set to begin at 4:30 p.m., was postponed, as was the Class AAAAAA final between Coffee and Lee County, which was scheduled for 8 p.m. For the rest of the story.... http://www.ajc.com/sports/high-school/high-school-championships-postponed-weather/IMNzGEjckJ4xYLx1dOjB7I/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be the equivalent of a player playing for one Tazewell County school in the regular season and then playing for a different one in the playoffs.

BigWinners 1,643 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Holy shit. That's one of the shadiest things I've ever seen. How TF was that allowed? Three days??!? You can't possibly say this transfer was anything other than one school recruit a kid for the game. It's ridiculous and I hope the VHSL looks back and vacates this whole mess. You cannot allow this precedent. It opens up the entire state to recruiting kids for playoff games in the big three sports. Disgusting. old_school_blue, JDHoss and Liam McPoyle 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was jokingly praising VHSL in their handling of the postponed games. Afterwards, I found the Oscar Smith article. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This kid was the starting QB-DB at Western Branch and played against Oscar Smith on October 27th in a district game. Even in their utter lack of competence, it's stunning that VHSL lacks a policy to prevent this type of travesty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ARE YOU KIDDING ME.....If this was in SWVA the VHSL would have someone's head, but it goes back to the same thing we've seen before, any team in the Roanoke Valley an eastward can do whatever and VHSL turns a blind eye. If Union had received a couple of tranfers from Graham would VHSL have allowed that??? Can not imagine what the rule is that allowed this to happen. Richlands has had transfers, but I thought the rule was that the kid had to have a semester of education under his belt at the new school, if I'm wrong, I must have fell asleep during the rule change meeting.

I'm not sure how the old rule read, but basically you weren't eligible to play during the semester you transferred. I remember occasions of basketball players who moved into a new school in the Fall but waiting until Spring semester (January) to be eligible.

Are the schools within the same County?/ Division? If so, perfectly legal. As long as the kid moved within the attendance zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
