West Charlotte Fiasco finally resolved

Amazingly, over two months after the issue of eliigibility was raised for the West Charlotte football team, CMS finally announced a punishment. Nothing wrong with the punishment, although I am still trying to figure out how their AD didnt know a player had used the AD's grandmother's address to be eligible....

Now here is where it gets funny, CMS took only a couple of days to force South Meck to forfeit their season just hours before round one of the playoffs and then West Charlotte's case carried on for over 2 months...

I said it back then and I will say it again, the West Charlotte - Indy game should have never been played if you follow the same line of thought in punishment as the South Meck situation.

I have a feeling we are about to hear of another punishment for another school, so stay tuned...

It all goes back to the South Meck penalty compared to crime sure seems different than this recent punishment.

I wonder what the parents of South Meck football players are thinking today?


Leads us back to Dr. Gorman's committee on eligibility he has formed.... Anything less than a complete overhaul of the checking system and a restoration of the publics faith in the system will be failure.....

I have a feeling spring sports may bring more issues......
