Sounds like a certain family up hinterland way...Bluewhitefan wrote:I'm not sure we know how gray this one is or isn't. If the family claimed to have moved and then didn't, but rented an empty apartment, shame on them for trying to skirt the rules. If the administration, including Giles, didn't fully research the eligibility before tryouts, shame on them.

If doesn't get resolved, suspect JM will go back to Omaha rather than play JV

Blah, blah, you asked whether I was an attorney and referred to me as a moron. Two words: DENNY CRANE!

Yeah, I caught that too. Don't remember hearing any cakey complaints when a different kid from Eagan "transferred" to Edina after spending one year at a private school and a second year outside of the MSHSL.Bluewhitefan wrote:Unless they're in the top 6 forwards or top 4 D.observer wrote:Listen, Edina coaches, players and parents really don't like transfers.

even if the player in question has siblings that attend Edina schools, that doesn't necessarily make him eligible to play varsity sports.

If Edina didn't need JM then why did he make the varsity team? Why did the kid from JV who took JMs spot hardly get any playing time? It must be because Edina doesn't need him... Each individual player has a key spot on the team. Clearly the coach picked his team as he needed it from the get go. I am positive the coach knows best. If he wanted different players he would have chose them. Let's let the coach decide what Edina needs!!!!

They got what they wanted by stating it was a sticky add and so for team eligibility questions with the MSHSL we'll skip the opportunity to add this player. Perfect. Done.
Let's enlighten you.... Edina parents do not like transfers!!! Transfers take their kids spot. Edina coaches who want to win love transfers!!!!!
DONE!

The kid who took his spot has 3 points already. I think he will do just fine.Monster hockey wrote:Whiner33 wrote:The thread has four pages of nonsense. Don't think Edina needs the kid!

Hopefully "just fine" will be enough. Playing for a team as an after though can't be very fun. I know I wouldn't want to be second choice. Hopefully for the kids sake he won't even realize. I bet the kids parents were furious when JM took his spot.

Re: spellchecker
I'm sure that the parents were furious, and the "after thought" kid was disappointed. But as far as I know, any decision on who is makes varsity and who is JV doesn't really have to be made until just before Sections start.Monster hockey wrote: Hopefully "just fine" will be enough.

On the teams that my kid played on, there was always some movement up/down between Varsity/JV during the season, depending on who was playing well/not well and who gets injured. Being a bubble kid who didn't "make" the Varsity team at the start of the season wasn't a death sentence. Sometimes, it was just the kick in the butt that a kid needed to play closer to his potential (so that after a lot of hard work and a few 5:30am practices he was promoted by Christmas).
But maybe mileage varies on the other side of the River, and some rosters are set into stone in November?
