What's up with the timing on this?  Don't you have to be deemed eligible before you play?  If he played, then why didn't they have to forfeit before the playoffs ever started? Strange......

This should explain it:

Per the Dallas Morning News, The ineligible player — Anthony Black, now a freshman at Arkansas — transferred to Duncanville from Coppell last summer,

to prohibit the organization from enforcing its ban, and alleged a violation of Jennifer and Anthony’s constitutional rights.
The temporary restraining order allowed Black to play in Duncanville’s postseason games — including the state championship game against McKinney — through the UIL retroactively deemed him ineligible Monday.

in March’s state championship after he scored a team-high 19 points

Peavy is now married to Black's mother, which was an interesting factoid I just read.

Restraining order is a joke.

Guy on Facebook, Melvin Dews raised an interesting scenario.  The Univ. of Texas created the UIL  So there is a definite connection between the two.   When the appeal was still unresolved UT was in the running to recruit Anthony Black.  Black chose Arkansas. The appeal did not go in his favor.  If Black had chosen to take his basketball skills to UT would the result of the appeal still be the same?  Probably, but who knows for sure?   Interesting question just the same.

Looks like the party is over.

All those players about to run elsewhere. It's gonna hurt as a Tiger fan if FF is stripped though. Just imagine how Atascocita basketball is feeling right now. That's how Tigers fans are gonna be feeling.

I guess BU has a good shot in 6A after all now.

Charter schools are under different rules and their geographical area covers multiple neighboring cities in the DFW.

Melvin is way off on the facts.

There is no conspiracy.

UIL ruled the player ineligible in September. He and his mom filed a temporary restraining order to keep the UIL from upholding the ruling. A court allowed the order until the Supreme Court could rule on it. The SC threw the order out so therefore the player became ineligible again. Player, mom and coach all knew he could be ruled ineligible but chose to play the player anyways.

UIL under these circumstances had to make this ruling.

These conspiracy theories about UT influencing these type decisions for the UIL is laughable.

The age old question... is it better to be fired for cheating or fired for losing. I'm certainly not condoning anything and never will... but... Every single school within the large city areas is trying to attract kids to play for them.  Schools openly try to increase enrollment numbers for funding by providing a "better education".  I personally think it's different but like I said, they're all doing it in some form or fashion.  Even according to UIL's own bylaws you can bring in kids from out of the school's district as long as they wait one calendar year to play varsity athletics.  That makes it ok? LOL. .

    • That was an awesome video!  I feel so proud of these young men.  They proved the doubters wrong.  Bellville should be proud, too.  I know it didn't end like they had hoped, but we've been there, so we can definitely empathize with them.  Great season, Brahmas!
    • Meh.. Everyone knows this. The kid that got injured wasn't lifting weights. Supposedly he was hit with a helmet in his elbow. In my opinion the kid shouldn't have been put in that situation. AD should've told the Varsity baseball players to sit that one out. I have no issues with the lifting or conditioning. However, anytime helmets/pads are on there is a higher risk of injury. This AD showed a total lack of respect for HIS baseball program. 
    • Maybe.. however..  Many athletic director / head football coach have lost their job despite the athletic program as a whole being successful.. if the football team struggles.  On the other hand, when football teams are doing great but the rest of the program stinks.. AD/HFC still keeps their job. WOS.  Newton. .. programs as a whole were fairly weak during those many years of football power and very few people even knew it.  Or cared. Yet, AD/HFC kept their jobs for years. Meanwhile, I remember an AD/HFC at Barbers Hill lost his job after every program in the school won district championships and even had several team sports (baseball, softball, girls hoops, etc.) making runs at state.  But the football team was mediocre.  Fired. I'm not saying you're wrong, just that perception is reality.  And the perception is that your athletic program can suck as long as football wins.. it doesn't matter how strong the athletic program is if football sucks.
