Does the MHSAA even pretend to enforce eligibility?
I have now had conversations this offseason with three coaches who have complained about teams they play with players they believe are playing with falsified addresses. My normal response has been if...

What specifically is the MHSAA supposed to do? The teams who have concerns have to investigate themselves and find proof. I don't see any other way.

That's kinda where in at with it too. But at the same time it's not really fair to put it on school A to police and investigate the actions of school B.

I would think it would be on the schools to follow through, don't think the MHSAA would have the resources to investigate and honestly having them more involved would not be very appealing to me. My...

I'm not talking about transferring or "recruiting" I'm talking about kids/families using a cousin or a grandmothers address etc to attend a certain school when they live in a different district.

View ArticleRe: Does the MHSAA even pretend to enforce eligibility?
My line has been drawn, the vast majority of athletes are playing by the rules. I have no idea what percentage, probably high 90s. For those who are not I am not concerned by it, again if my kid goes...

That didn't really draw a line but I see where you stand. I appreciate the back and forth. My goal was to get varying viewpoints so I appreciate that. I'm still not a big fan of the free agency for...
