Ok well for everyone else's kids, high school sports and schools it is a bad thing. You are just selfish as frick.
i disagree, i think its a great thing for HS sports. you think it would be like college, i disagree.
and i dont want to tell other parents where there kids should go to school. I want them to make their own choices they feel is best for them. i guess that makes me a selfish prick for not wanting random guy in BR deciding things.

Barbe's principle was interviewed by geaux preps and said that he voted no even though his school would prolly benefit because he felt like it would really hurt the smaller schools.
Why does he care about the small schools, he doesn’t play them for any championships?
Now they do absolutely have too many that makes it an unequal vote on issues like this. They would lose their shite if high enrollment schools deconsolidated theoretically and crushed their votes

Full Freshmen Eligibility passed 169-168.
That is a big win for the LHSAA and needs to be a bargaining chip against the legislature.
anybody got a link to the full freshman eligibility rule? or the vote?

A couple of examples:
3a school has a good group of 6 baseball players in 1 class. They start as sophomores and go 5-22. As Jrs. They go 14-14. Going into their senior year 3 get poached to go to 5a schools. Team then goes 10-20. How is that fair to the other kids or coaches.
On the Acadmeic side, you think it is only good students transferring. You have low academic students leaving bad schools to populate good schools which brings the good school down. It hurts the academics and school culture.

Well that's exactly why. If you vote to screw the small schools over, the small schools will remember that for the future. They don't have anything to lose from it passing, they are already the best. Might as well keep everyone happy.

So the private, mainly catholic schools, can just form their own Catholic league division and say screw it. You could see STM and Teurlings play with NOLA catholic schools and Catholic in BR. Throw some MS schools in there and you're rolling.
No when the split first happened they met a few times about forming their own association like LISA the meeting were so divided it was a total waste of time.

I always thought if you were at a school in your 8th grade year (under the HS principal) that was the year you sat out so you’d be eligible to play in 9th
Correct, but there haven't been a rash of schools starting 8th grades.

Weren’t schools getting around this by starting 8th grades and so forth?

no idea, i think its dumb but i can at least respect his opinion.

absoltuely.
and i do think this may hurt smaller schools because kids would rather play at the bigger schools. Im ok with that and im ok with having few schools in the state in general.
i dont think a kid that is extremely good in 1a and wants to transfer to a 5a school to get noticed by more schools and play better competition and push himself is a bad thing.
but i also dont think NIL is any real concern at any appreciable level and i dont consider free tuition NIL so I dont see recruiting as a big issue. all they can do is offer you playing time or free school, same as every public school.

I stand corrected on Jeff, but St Tammany definitely isn't and I'm sure most parishes aren't.

I'm talking about parishes like ST and Jeff, where it's not open enrollment.
St. Tammany, Ascension, Livingston, etc.
Those districts are actively choosing to stay with attendance zones. Why should their isolated choice cost a student in a different district who operates under different rules a year of eligibility?
quote:
Unless you can show me otherwise, these kids are not going to be eligible for schools they are out of zone for because those schools aren't going to even allow them in.
Again, that is the result of the decision of the school district. It should not be the blanket rule of the LHSAA that governs different systems with different rules - especially now, where the attendance zone districts represent a minority of the association's membership.

but take your example...a kid gets 1 shot at this, 1 HS experience, lets say you are zoned for a big 5a school and you are a damn good qb, some kid moves in from cali and takes your spot and yall are same class....the original kid should just sit and never get a chance to play? thats fricking stupid if thats you stance
Holy crap.
It’s bad enough we want to remove the “student “ from student athlete in college… now you want to do it in high school.
Here’s an idea… the QB can be a good teammate and work harder and beat out the stud.
It’s high school sports.

1) those kids leaving has nothing to do with those that stayed, its not their business
2) those kids are leaving why? because the new school offers
-better development/coaching
-more exposure
-tougher competition
-better academics
-better learning environment
-better facilities
-better chance to get to next level due to a coach helping in the recruiting
kids leave for the reasons above
so you dont like them leaving and call it unfair...I say your school should have invested in those things above. they should have made the learning environment better, offered act prep, built better facilities, got better coaching
also known as competing. Kids dont leave for a downgrade in opportunities, they leave because the other is offering something that the current school wont provide. instead of improving those things you whine about fairness
this is why i want 100% school choice..so schools who dont want to compete, they gone. bye, nothing but relics of the past. and im talking mainly academic side of things.
and dont say its about money, private schools for the most part dominate sports in this state, they provide much better academics, better facilities, better coaches etc yet on average they spend way less per student than the state does with our tax money.
quote:

the school has to decide if they want to accept them or not. schools shouldnt accept them for the most part.

The legislature folks pushing this come from open enrollment parishes

Again, this situation is exceedingly rare. The vast majority of transfers in the LHSAA are the result of cuts, lack of playing time, etc.
I'm opposed to the one-time transfer because the legislature has no business in high school sports. That said, the actual consequences of a one-time transfer would be far less dramatic than what people on this forum argue. You would probably end up with a little more parity, especially in areas with the a lot of schools to choose from.

the backup qb never gets to play and never gets to experience high school sports on the actual field on friday night.
or you could just say...hey maybe i dont know whats best for every other family and their situation.
and how does it remove the student part. it could be an ap student or gifted student. algebra 1 is algebra 1 across the state. all core classes transfer across the state. such a stupid argument
but lets say its a kid that balls out as a freshman at an all black school that is failing. he has a 4.0 but wants more from his life. lets say its at john erhart....now brother martin is offering him to come. its life changing opportunity for him and his family where he can get out of the ghetto and make connections that will help him the rest of his life.....but nope cant go because some random guy in houston says he should have to stay and its not fair.
