I'm not so sure it is a good thing. Now the GHSA will be even less likely to rule someone ineligible to start with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know our ADs don't turn their heads and just shoot paperwork through like others. That's the part that folks miss. They have something for Rush and allow that to cloud the fact that the administrations down at Colquitt weren't rubber stamping transfer eligibility forms. The rules got reviewed, and everything got checked, checked again and checked again before being sent to the GHSA. This is how you manage to survive a "cheating" coach without forfeiting games or other eligibility issues. Does this mean it has been going on at Valdosta for years?

I don't think it did under the last couple of coaches. Rush is a salesman. He was probably able to sell the AD over there on looking the other way, while he couldn't at Colquitt.

I know that the last coach who is here now, Alan Rodemaker, told me face to face he didn't agree with recruiting and all. That doesn't mean he never did it, but, I wouldn't think he did. Seems better character than that to me. I have no clue about Rance Gillespie. He didn't win a lot so if he recruited it didn't work for him.

I don’t think they have pull at the the GHSA. I think they are just very good at what they do and making sure all involved what it takes to make transfers work. Hell you would think that Colquitt would have a “Tiny” bit of pull with the GHSA. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From my view point the GHSA barely even knows football is played outside of metro. When you can't even place the goals in the right spot for state titles game in BB you should not be running HS athletics. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that one takes the cake. May be the first time in history a school had 2 ineligible QB's the same year. People in Valdosta are still wondering who paid who and why their pay wasn't good enough. 🤣🤣🤣 We did have one declared ineligible *before* the season. Proves the GHSA looks at us and pays attention. He never played a down in a game and we didn't have to forfeit anything. He actually left before the school year started. Garcia was vetted by the GHSA before he ever set foot on our campus. Anything that happened before he got there was on your former coach. We, and he, were on the up and up while he was here. I believe your team has had a few move in QBs as well. I still find it funny you talk about us and QBs since the Packers QB that lead you to 2 championships never lived in Colquitt Co but hey! He started commuting across county lines before he started ninth grade so in your mind that makes it right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe two people in Georgia care what you think about our sports and governing bodies. From my point of view, you are so jealous of Georgia because you know Alabama doesn't fare so well when compared to us. That plus there are what, 3 teams in Alabama worth following if that. Must be boring to live there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may not have pull but they're the only school in Georgia IMO that could play an ineligible player and not have to forfeit the games. Grayson knew he had been declared ineligible at Valdosta.
