Also, they need to reassign victories to the teams that lost. I.e. Helias should be 7-0 now, which helps, but then again it's a win over an 0-7 team now.
Holy Hat, what a mess.

You didn’t get bonus District points for opponents’ strength of schedule. Larger schools don’t lose points for playing smaller schools ... they just don’t get District points, just like would happen with any loss. Smaller schools DO get bonus points for playing up ... even in a loss.
 
There are major rules and regulations that govern student conduct at Cardinal Ritter College Prep High School. Each student is expected to abide by all federal, state, and school laws and regulations.

The school will take disciplinary action against any member of the school community who violates the accepted school code and thus jeopardizes the rights of other members of the school or the broader community.

We shall see.
The MSHSAA bureaucrats are weighing how to balance enforcing their own rules while avoiding political protest hoopla.

Definitely something going on in the background. Everybody being tight lipped right now.

MSHSAA was suppose to make announcement yesterday. So was CR AD announcing coach was leaving.

Where do you come up with this shit?

He’s a clown. The kind of guy that calls protests when police kill an unarmed Black man, “using the race card”, then claims it’s okay because some of the police officers were Black.

Anyway. Ritter’s not going to be banned from the post-season. At least, not by MSHSAA. There’s no precedent for not allowing them to play their remaining games, and every school automatically qualifies for District play.

The only reason Clayton’s season ended in 2003, when Jairus Byrd was ruled ineligible for them, was bc Ladue waited until the first week of the post-season to report them.

If Ritter DID “self-report”, it’s only because they realized that the same would’ve happened to them this year. They’d have steamrolled Principia (or another 8 seed), had the violation exposed, then forfeited the win, and ended their season. The Administration and Archdiocese might step in and forfeit Districts on their own, though.

Get some sleep. It’s late. Gotta be sharp for Farmington tomorrow night.

Thanks for your concern. I’ll be fine. You should come too. I’m sure I’ll be able to spot you. You’ll be the guy hating his life, looking like he ate a cold shit sandwich, and wishing he had the opportunities the kids playing have.
 
I’d relish the opportunity to meet you. Your poetic anecdotes brighten everyone’s day here.
The talents of cyber psychoanalysis you consistently demonstrate continue to astound and amaze!

Consider yourself invited. I’m looking forward to putting a face on your anonymous, online message board bullshit. Please dress as your favorite drunken Ampipe Football character tonight.

I’m sure you’re a real load of chuckles and merriment in the real world.

I thought you had to have results from playing in at least 5 regular season games to be eligible for district play??
 
They don't list as lost, they list as forfeit, so obviously the ? Is , does this or does this NOT give the implication that in the record books these games never existed for CR. If that is the case, CR gone. Just tell us already so I can get the grill ready for this afternoon
 
You may be right, but I believe they do have results: 0-7 with each score being 0-13.
MSHSAA has already entered it.
Here's the rub - if their results are all -13 points, there's no way they can get to the 26 some odd district points. Also, when I looked last night at their opponents records to figure their points, it's a no contest like the game never happened ie: Helias's record is now 6-0. We'll see, but I'd be pleasantly shocked if they don't somehow make it into the tournament.

Semi-educated guess. Last track season a runner was declared ineligible after the district meet for being, I think, entered into too many events. His results for those events were vacated in the results but other runners were not moved up and while that school lost those points, nobody else gained points and other scores did not change. Based on that I can see why, Helias loses the lose but does not get the points from a forfeit win.
Forfeit points are allowed when Team A says to Team B we cannot play Friday night because of too few players which or examples like that.
 
Aha!
But you’re using common sense by assuming there’s a pattern in enforcing the rules.
Remember, we’re talking about MSHSAA here.

More confusion from the semi-educated. If you go to the Helias school site on the MSHSAA website, their record is 7-0 under the schedule tab but 6-0 under the My School Page tab. Programming problem?

You’re always a great source on this kind of thing, cards.
I was just thinking there HAD to be several kids that knew this wasn’t okay and were sick about it.
Tough position for a player divided between loyalty to his coaches and speaking up in this scene. Hard lesson
Here's the problem, loyalty to a wrongdoing is still wrong. Speaking up about injustice is hard, but loyalty does not always determine right and wrong. There are children and significant others that stay in horrible relationships all the time because of a sense of "loyalty" to the person. Sadly, it is terrible that the coaches placed the students in a place of having to choose to be loyal or show integrity.
