TheMaximumHornetSting Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 GHSA executive Gary Phillips has annunced his resignation. The GHSA did this in an atempt to stop the bill in Senate. But it looks like it wont help.... Getting Phillips out was only part of the issue.... The GHSA needs an overhaul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECHS05 Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 If that Bill passes, teams like Grayson, Buford, McEachern, Cartersville ... are going to get THAT much better. Im sure theres a lot of teams hoping it doesnt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rufus>> I dont. Colquitts Proximity to smaller schools that have talented kids that would love to play for Colquitt would undoubtedly bring in some transfers. Now Lowndes Maybe not so much....

TheMaximumHornetSting Posted March 7, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 Basically the transfer bill would be like FL's You can go to any school you want as long as you have the transportation or means of getting there... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think the GHSA needs an overhaul but terminating the organization may or may not be a good move. But The GHSA council does need a Revamp.

HawgGoneIt Posted March 7, 2017 Report Share Posted March 7, 2017 6 hours ago, New Jersey said: Do the Georgia guys agree with this proposed bill? No. It will be a case of the rich get richer while the rural schools are left out. It will greatly... GREATLY benefit metro areas. If they do happen to disband the GHSA and implement the transfer rules that they have proposed, the only way to make it anywhere close to fair for the rural schools would be to allow open recruiting as well. Pretty sure that the stuff I saw was no recruiting but transferring in for whatever reason is ok. For areas that have many high schools in close proximity, the transferring/team stacking will be off the charts while schools like Colquitt are 40-60 miles from almost every other high school. I'd have to see it in action to believe it if Albany, Thomasville, Thomas County, Valdosta, Lowndes County, Tallahassee, Leon County, Brooks County, Worth County, Tift County would lose kids to Colquitt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
