Don't really complain about things I have the power to change. But if I have the opportunity to voice my opinion about a coach who I believe is ruining a team I support on a sports forum then I will do so every time. I'd be lying if I said he's doing a great job
You (and other local experts) said the same thing about the coach that led WV to the State Championship (which is why he left). WV does not currently have talent to win. That's a fact whether you want to believe it or not.

If he truly has a valid certificate why would he resign? It doesn't seem that it would to be difficult to prove you went through an appopriate route to gain certification. Been out of the profession for over 10 years, and I don't recall this being very common though not unheard of other than they payment crud that went on in the massive school districts (Houston DFW, etc)a few years back. Has this become prevalent where people are filing such complaints and are most proven to be false allegations? What is this current process you mention?
Different process now than 10 years ago. Anyone can place a random call to TEA and the teachers certificate will immediately trigger to “under investigation”. The school could have also triggered it because he broke contract.

His certification is under investigation according to sbec.
Very simple for that to happen under the current process. Anyone can file a complaint with TEA about anything with no evidence and no validity and the certificate will become “under investigation”.

Ehh even then even the worst 6A teams are gonna be a issue depth wise vs a top 3A I’d imagine
Plenty of top 3As would make the playoffs in the Aldine/Spring district and other similar districts.

If he's everything you say he is then SA should have no problem winning state in 2A this year with him and a couple other move ins added to the athleticism SA allready has normally
Hard to forecast a State Championship but that is on the agenda. Basketball as well. Doesn’t take much of a hiccup to fall short on State Championships.
As for the player in discussion, Lane Kiffin, Steve Sarkisian, Ryan Day, Mike Elko and others believe him to be valuable for their programs. I doubt he has many equivalents in Texas and definitely not in 2A. He is currently the 54 ranked player in the nation for 2028. -

I don't remember much about the facility it's been so long. Probably been upgraded quite a bit since then. I always stop at the store there in SA to grab a snack on my way up to jefferson.
Just opened a new high school and basketball gym this year. Probably among the nicest in 2A

I'd imagine he's probably a little biased and probably wouldn't say anything that could come off as negativity toward the kid.
Definitely "biased". Especially since there is nothing "negative" to say.

Everyone at IMG is above average. They are all the best or close to the best at their positions. Some can't handle being another number among the best or the daily grind of what a school like IMG demands of you.
Not the case in this scenario

IMG facilities are nicer than most D1 facilities. It's basically a college at the high school level. It's also a place where the above avg are just another number.
Probably so, but Canton is well past “above average”. Currently holds 36 FBS offers and has dominated camps against the top players in the nation.

That is exactly what it is called. 15 year old kid gone from home. Not ready to be gone for the rest of his life.

I knew he was originally from Center. Didn't know about the SA connection.
SA did get some key transfers for this season.
Will be keeping an eye on those guys this year.
Set to make real run in 2A. 4 players holding FBS offers. 2 more with D2s. All of them play both ways.

I noticed that no one has written about the Jasper Scrimmage. I would like to see something about Jasper and Shepherd.
I believe Shepherd scored 3 and OF scored 2.

Ken Houston is the best. To say otherwise is not serious discussion.

It's odd that you think complaints only come from the "losing team" - Do you live in a bubble world where you only exist on this site? Get out more. I've spoken numerous times about plenty of people all over the Dallas region who are sick of it and not all of them are on the "losing team" which I'm still not sure how that makes it any different.
They also are not at all different than Faith and Family. It's the same thing to its core.
Fairly simple for the coaches who are “sick of it”: 1. Regulate it through their membership on the DEC. 2. Don’t sign off on transfers.
**The reason they don’t follow these steps is because they have similar in their own programs. Every school in Texas receives players and loses players.

I think this subject can be viewed in many ways. But what I believe 89Falcon is trying to say is that these student athletes that are mentioned were all ruled eligible. The coaches that the player transferred from didn't check the box, the DEC the player is transferring to didn't rule ineligible (and that matters the most since it's comprised of schools that will be competing against said player(s) ), or these players sat out the necessary time before being allowed to play varsity sports.
Like Matt stated, UIL will most times not step in on these type situations and will just about always rule the same as the DEC.
Should policy change? I say it should. But until then as long as players are ruled eligible, the schools can carry on.
Stating that schools recruit can be viewed as sour grapes. Not saying that's the case here but most of the complaining normally comes from the losing teams.
In the case of SOC, all their players were ruled eligible so they have done no wrong.
Yes

The poster already laid out numerous ones and you chose to ignore that post.
Have not seen an answer yet. Just that a few kids transferred. There is not a school in Texas that did not gain new students or lose new students.
**worthy of note that no one is mentioning the schools that do not win big and anything about their “transfers”.

Why does the UIL ignore SOC recruiting? No one moves to SOC for academics.
How do you know? How many people moved to or from SOC in the past year? And what were each of their reasons? (been waiting on someone with direct knowledge like yourself).
Why did the DEC not reject the SOC transfers? Since it would directly hurt their schools? Did PNG submit any PAPFs this year?

Reggie McNeals kid from Houston-
Dallas Skyline fella.
Your turn Falcon. You think they all moved for Academics at Oak Cliff?
How is he eligible? If he broke a rule? How was he approved by the DEC? I suspect every school in the district submitted PAPFs for transfers. Do you any info on the transfers to the other schools in the district? Or just the teams that are good?

Take solace in the team being disciplined and projecting a positive culture. There is nothing for the coach to work with at the moment. Not sure where the relief will come from.
