So watching Tittle Town on Netfix. So GHSA rules a kid ineligible and takes a win away, after 1st ruling him eligible??? The kid moved from one state to another. I get if he played near Valdosta and just claimed he moved. But from Cali to Georgia. And the reason he was ruled ineligible is because his parents gave an interview to ESPN and said they planned on trying to fix their marriage after the season??? The kid moved because Cali wasn't playing, but the kid moved and lives in Valdosta. He doesn't live in the neighboring town, he lives in Valdosta!
But that not why they are screwed up....no they then let the kid go to another Georgia school and he is eligible!?!?!?!
How can you start a season at one school, play a game at that school and then transfer mid season to another school??? Just because his mom and dad went to court and his mom now gives full custody to Dad???
I get it you hate Rush Propst. But you screw the kid over because you hate a coach who yes is a bad image for HS football.
What is wrong with youth and HS sports...ADULTS! Only reason this kid could play for another Georgia HS was because that HS's coach isn't Rush Propst....you can't justify any other reason.
Rush Propst is a different story.....but this, this was wrong for people who say they care about kids!

Ok to clarify. I AM NOT Defending Rush Propst! He is a cheater, has always been a cheater and will always be a cheater!

I coach in GA and know the rules. The player in question did not make a "bonafide move". Meaning his family all moved from one home to another. They moved strictly for football purposes and mom stayed behind in California. That is against the rules. The entire family has to move.
After he was ruled inelligble at Valdosta, the parents got separated and he moved again with Dad to Grayson. That is considered a bonafide move.
Not saying it is right or makes sense, but the move to Valdosta was against the rules, black and white. The move to Grayson was very shady, but technically legal according to GHSA rules

Probst is a bad dude, no doubt. But that Nub Nelson guy is a real piece of work! 😆

I didn't realize Titletown was about real football. I thought it was a show similar to All American.

You get to that part of georgia, you have to have won something and probably more than once to get a job. And you better fit the part. |

As with most things money has ruined sports in many places like this. I get it but also don't get it how half way through a season a kid transfers in and you just throw them in there as your starter. But when you throw in the pressure to win and money that is infiltrating big high school football it's clear. Just sad to see how some places operate.
Probst is another story all together. Amazing how much he talks about himself to the team in that show. Just a true piece of garbage over all.

All I can say is that I'm glad that I coach and teach where I coach.... It might not be the same competitive environment as it is in other states but we don't deal with this type of b.s. very often. A kid might move in the middle of the year for athletic reasons and pick up a hardship (i.e. not have to sit out 90 days) but it's rare and the hardship is typically justifiable.
We had a girl transfer to another school down the road in the middle of basketball season and it was clearly athletically motivated. I was AD at the school and myself and the administration made it known to the powers-that-be at the state level that she was bailing for better basketball. But, there were some serious, extenuating legal issues going on (nothing we were involved in) that basically forced the state to give her a hardship or end up sued. It was hard watching the kids play against her two weeks after she bailed but it was what it was.

The ending pissed me off. Rush is Rush. He’s scum. We know it. Valdosta probably knew it when they got him.
Nub throwing the program under the bus and being shoot/laughing about it because he felt threatened that Rush was gonna start a new booster club is petty, unacceptable, and he didn’t do right by those kids.
