Musical Chair QBs in the Northland

[JNreturns]

So a Kearney QB to LN. And a LN QB to Staley. Can't a good QB family move to Oak Park for football and help them out too? Any QBs out there? Please check out Oak Park. Affordable housing...good accesss to everything suburban KC has to offer. Northtown has a cool stadium. Not a football school, but NKC also needs help.

And Platte County getting a transfer QB from Shawnee Mission Northwest

 

[FridayNightsJunkie]

I'm curious if MSHSAA somehow verifies the athlete is actually living at their new address within the school district they transfer into. I'm guessing - No.

If they did find dishonesty - what are the consequences for the school? The athlete?

is Van Dyne still at LN? Started as a freshman but did not seem to play much last year.

if you go to Oak Park just so you can start at QB you should have your head examined.

What happens when you "transfer" to a new school so you can be the QB and you get beat out there also?

It happened in Kearney last year. Just the chance you take.

It is up to the new school you are attending to verify residency. If not properly, you can be ineligible for an entire year.


16. Transferring Schools

• If you transfer schools, you will be ineligible for 365 days, unless your circumstances meet one of the exceptions listed in the MSHSAA Residence and Transfer Rules (By-Law 3.10). Make an appointment with the school's athletic director to review these exceptions. Several, but not all, are described below.
• Exception 1: If you move with your entire family across a boundary line into your new school district, you will be eligible at your new school provided you were eligible in all other respects at your former school and provided there are no other issues with the transfer. You and your entire family must move to the new residence at the same time prior to attending classes.
• Always check with your school principal or athletic director before you transfer to determine whether it will affect your eligibility.
• Discipline follows a student to a new school. Being expelled from a school also causes 365 days of ineligibility for a student.
• Exception 2: A student may be eligible immediately at the school of his or her choice upon first being promoted from the 8th grade into the 9th grade, provided the student is eligible in all other respects.
• Exception 10: Foreign Exchange Students are eligible for varsity competition for one year only and only if they are seniors (semester 7 or 8), provided they are participating in an exchange program listed by CSIET. However, no member of the school's coaching staff for the sport concerned may serve as a host family, or eligibility of the student will be affected
• You shall become ineligible for 365 days if you transfer to another school for athletic reasons.

"You shall become ineligible for 365 days if you transfer to another school for athletic reasons." Bahaha. THAT never happens?

So basically - make sure the 'whole family' moves across the boundary, fill out the form correctly AND deny it was for athletic reasons. Got it.

Add that you hope the administration at the school you are leaving has no evidence that you left for athletic reasons or don't have the balls the check the box.

And the administration at your new school doesn't really care if half your family still lives in the town you're coming from, that you're address is a "rental" from a fellow football player's parents, or that parents still have their old job in their old town and still own the $250K house in the old town, but are now renting a $450/month apartment in new boundary that doesn't have any furniture in it. ...

Then you're really good to go.

The entire thing is a joke. The sooner everyone agrees on that the sooner we can all get over it.

It is a confounding situation. But I understand why people do it when scholarships are possibly on the line.

Not reality. what you do is you say you have to live with your uncle or grand parents, or whoever because you don't feel safe at home. case closed.

I say just let it be open season on recruiting and transfers. Or enforce the current rules rabidly. One or the other makes no difference to me, just so it's consistent and not a BS farce like it is now.

 

[sw5890]

Indeed. Why have it in the rules if you aren't going to enforce it? Rules that aren't enforced just undermine the other rules.

Youd have to do a Congressional inquiry with 60 minutes reporters covering 24 hours a Day like CNN to expose the reality of these situations .
