Cardinal Ritter 0 - 7?

It's just time to clean house and set an example of CR. That might send a message to other schools that feel it's perfectly fine to cheat as long as winning is the final outcome. An let's be honest this goes way beyond just the coaching staff. More like the entire community.
 
I googled an interesting story on the situation from a st. louis tv report. Says the kid will not play in the next two games per Cardinal Ritter guidelines. CR is doing an "internal investigation". It's as if the kid stole somebody's jersey and played in the first game without anyone knowing. MSHSAA is supposed to issue a comment sometime today. Yes, not playing the kid the next two games is appropriate but surely the school and administrators will be punished. Team should be out of the playoffs...

I think the MSHSAA By-laws are pretty clear:
1. Participate under an assumed name=immediately ineligible for up to 365 days.
2. Egregious or intentional violation of the by-laws or the rules/regulations of the sport by a coach may cause the board of directors to withhold his approval as head coach which approval is required under the by-laws.
3. The institution can be suspended from membership for up to one year.
That all sounds reasonable. As others have said though, MSHSAA has a history of doing nothing when St. Louis private schools cheat. Why would anyone believe they will change in this situation?

There is a reason policies are in place. No need to "make examples" of anyone. Just enforce the policy. If the consequences aren't stiff enough to deter future repeats of the behavior, change the policy.
 
Weird how the STL mouth breathers are not commenting.

Hey JoJo,

Checking in!

Its because we dont care! (surprise surprise)

This isnt the first or last time a HS uses an ineligible player during a game.

CR will be punished, HC will be fired. Life will move on.

Lutheran North will now win Class 2
Trinity will win Class 3
Ladue will win Class 4
and CBC or Desmet will win Class 6.

Wash rinse repeat.

Jojo I know its hard to get a good connection on that farm in the middle of nowhere but have you SEEN Ladue???? Defense still amazing and LN being down????? Seems like you just havent watched much football.

Try slapping the butt part of your television to get the static out so you can watch some football games.

We're leading that post because this is a very obvious clear bias message board. ANYONE with any sense knows that Webb City by far the most annoying. that fact that its even that close when its only about 3 stl people on MoSports lets you know that lol

Perhaps a little reflection time is needed. Sometimes you are the problem.

Bless your heart.

Chicago paper's article. “Nazareth was alerted to the possibility that Cardinal Ritter may have used an ineligible player and shared that information with our office, which we passed along to the Missouri State High School Activities Association,” Illinois High School Association assistant executive director Matt Troha said.

So MSHSAA will not make a decision until December, MSHSAA is proving themselves to be a Joke, Need to write our state congressmen and get rid of them. I say just WOW so probably nothing will happen until that time. So what happens if CR gets to go to the playoffs? Sends a message cheating is okay.

According to Jason West, communications director for the MSHSAA, Cardinal Ritter officials will meet with MSHSAA representatives via conference call Thursday to discuss the situation and what will happen going forward.

West said a forfeit of the Nazareth game is a possibility, but would not be likely until Dec. 5, the next time the full MSHSAA board convenes. He added that the organization’s executive director has the authority to call a special board meeting prior to Dec. 5.

They will run through the play-offs, knock off Lutheran North in districts, win the state title, be stripped of it later, the runner-up declared the state champ, and finally Lutheran North will declare themselves the "unofficial state champs" for the season.

This is the purest form of poetic justice that I can even imagine.....
 
Since..MSHSAA is quickly realizing how complicated it is to enforce their
least complicated "POE", which is..you know...the whole "don't cheat" policy...
Can we forgo the yearly and increasingly tedious online rules review...
Or at least give the option to skip the rules and policy "POE" slides
in the presentation that may or may not be used or enforced?

No need to write your congressmen, just don't join the organization. Nobody forces any school to be a member.

I agree with this, the officials continue to make wrong calls as well, thus making the on-line rules review a complete waste of time. We lost a down on offense on a defensive penalty. Player was called for a face-mask on 2nd down and they gave us the yardage but made it 3rd down. We argued to no avail.
