Both his previous school and new school have been projected to compete for their respective conference championships in the fall. Is this a valid transfer with full eligibility?

What is unfortunate, however, is that his mother is an administrator in Warrick County. She has bigger stones than I have considering that. Supposedly their logic was that he would get more exposure "blocking" for Brady Allen, than he would at Castle. Not sure that makes sense to me. Equally concerning is I guess the days of being loyal to your high school have diminished. Seems to be more focus on the how the individual can benefit and less loyalty in some cases. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm, isn't Castle supposed to be really strong next year? Seems kind of odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a tough enough place to win without an administration that just doesn't seem to care. I know people that have applied there and reached out to administration and get no reply at all. I'm starting to think they won't hire a coach and just shut it down but that's just my opinion. I haven't been told that at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you considered the possibility that Gibson Southern has a better endzone camera set-up than Castle? Perhaps the young man feels that if he plays at Gibson he will have better endzone film to send to colleges. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We think they make our butts look big. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there was any year to change between those two schools, this would be the year. Chatard = 4A Memorial = 4A Southridge = Down from last year HH = Not as good as they were two years ago Lawrenceburg still has Yoon, but not sure how good they are. Castle has Cathedral waiting for them again at Semistate. (At least for another year) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can they expect to get many quality applicants, without a teaching position? I was interested in the position, but I can't move my family for a coaching stipend. It's tough to win as it is. It's even tougher when you're at a school that's had so little success. It's impossible when a school with that history has an Admin doesn't care. I truly feel sorry for the kids.

Paradise1960 Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 It does seem really odd. Word around our community is it's for athletic reasons and both parents work in Warrick County. I'm not sure how he will be eligible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FB will be a really good player. The question will be can they generate enough offense to beat good teams? They won't need "dynamic" skill players, it's three yards and a cloud of dust. It is hard to beat someone when you don't have the ball. Looks like they will have 2 to 3 of the kind of kid they look for in the backfield.
