Title: 1A Recru... Legal move in
Post by: BannerChaser95 on November 08, 2017, 09:30:01 am
Team A has a record of 34-5
Team B has a record of 15-15

Team A beat team B 2 times  by a combined 154-76 Home and Home conference games.

Team A won the conference. Team B didn't

Team A won The district tournament. Team B didn't, actually finished 4th

Team A made regional finals. Team B season is over with a .500 record.




If you had the choice for your child to continue his High School career at Team B where he was arguably the best player or Team A where he could still stand out and still play and still produce.

Would you even consider moving your child? This is a hot topic some people take like the Bible Belt is about to lose its guns! If theirs a system you can use to move your child with no sit out time or consequences why not take hold of that system. I'm not talking about going from a 5A school as a starter to a 1A school. This systems not for select schools, it's for everyone. Go to whatever school you want. If you want to keep your child at a 15-15 school. With high hopes of "maybe we will make regionals" well then more power to you!

My child would play in whatever district I live in, or if a parent taught at a school at that school.  School is about school, not sports.  After you have graduated 10 years later, who really cares if you went .500 or won state?  No one!!  This moving schools to play on a better team is beyond ridiculous.  And it doesn't teach a kid anything in life.

just have them quit sports and focus on real life things then because in 10 years. Playing basketball isn't anything more than memories. So yeah 15-15 or winning state. Nothing matters huh

I never said anything about quitting sports.  Sports can teach kids lots of things.  Give it your all, in all you do.  That is what I say.  But I don't believe in school hopping just to get my kid on a better team.  I personally will never do that.  At the end of the day it is just sports.  You won't make a living at it, and there are lots of things more important.  And I love sports.....

Each parent needs to do what's best for his/her kid. Sports are more important to some kids than others. Some kids love the game so much that it affects their self confidence, their grades, numerous aspects of their lives. We aren't all cut from the same cloth. If my child excels at sports and wants to play with a team that will make him/her better and give him/her a better shot at success, then I'm going to do what I can to make his/her dreams come true. There's plenty of disappointment in life already. Why not give them every tool to make their youth as enjoyable and memorable as possible? I love to listen to people who played in high school reminisce about the "good ole days." I have heard many say how badly they miss it.

+1. I don't see why it's the worst thing in the world a kid moves. I've seen kids move off for parents work and never pick up a ball again. But select parents are moving their kids to play ball and some people just can't stand it.

That's where you have to be able to know what your personal beliefs in what success is.

I wasn't trying to start a recruiting war asking abt the move in at icc btw. I was just trying to find out if the rumors of a new kid was true.

Well, correct me if I'm wrong, but a legal move into the district is the only way to be eligible without sitting.  If you do that for a child, just to be on a winning team, that's just sad.  Very poor display of parenting and setting a bad example for your children to follow.  Like most said, after they have graduated, it will just ring hollow.

Of course I agree with Woodrow1 on this! BannerChasers duties as Director of Admissions at Kirby High School depends on him putting the best spin on this he can. Secondary duties mostly include trying to deflect all blame and attention away from MoonPie to little avail. Woodrow1 you make great points. I have not seen one single kid in ClassA play this year that will play after high school except for intramurals. School loyalty is gone like my paycheck! Community pride is a thing of the past so you have what we have now. Thank you AAA and the win at all costs guys out there chasing banners and rings!

Depends on when you move. If you have the foresight to do it in junior high (before start of 10th grade, and you do it before July 1 of the summer before, there is no sitting out.

Because moving for job is one thing. Moving to play ball according to AAA rules makes a kid ineligible. Your whole argument is based on a kid moving into your district to play basketball. That is illegal in terms of AAA eligibility.

Exactly. Where's the pride of working with your classmates and lifelong friends to represent your hometown. Everyone now wants instance gratification. High school sports isn't the NBA.

Wow.  So Bible Belt and gun control are synonymous? 
I can't speak for anyone else on here, but I have personally witnessed a coach of one school having interviews with kids and their parents from a neighboring school.  I'm talking about a recruiting interview.  Three interviews in one week actually.  The moves were  bonafide "legal" moves.  With the exception of the behind the scenes/illegal meetings.  On paper it was legal.  The three players leaving decimated one program.  There was a fourth one that moved the next year.
So, moves done legally in every aspect, I have NO problem with.  It's where the receiving coach, or board member, or superintendent has taken an active role in bringing that kid in that I have a problem with.  One coach providing "affordable" housing is an example.

If my school had a move in of course I would take it.  But I would still think it's ridiculous to move schools for your kid to be on a better team.  I only have a problem with it if that is the only reason they move.  Families have to move all the time because of work, family problems, health, etc.

But you all just assume it's cause of ball. and whoever is saying 10 years from now it won't matter to you, then why are you on this website talking about high school sports if it doesn't matter.

Assume all you want! Assume everything you want! Its easy to fool lots of people! Yes Id take a move in if it was a move in. A kid living in Quitman but playing basketball at GFWS isn't a move in. A kid living in Mt.Vernon playing basketball at Guy isn't a move in. A kid living in Mayflower riding with the GP High School principal to school to play basketball at GP isn't a move in (past situation). Long story short I know all yalls tricks. and it appears I know a lot more about what really goes on there than you do. Perhaps I really live in Twin Groves! Perhaps I live on Copperhead Road (great song)!

If a kid lives in another district, but has went to another school his or her whole life that's not a problem. Moving schools isn't a problem. Every kid on the Guy roster lives in the district. Your just upset that no one wants to play for ya'll.

This is a problem that will never be solved and extremely hard for the AAA to fairly regulate as almost each individual situation is different. There are just too many things that factor in to the "move-in" process. In my estimations around the late 90's and early 2000's this whole "move-in" for athletics debte became a big deal, you didnt hear about it as much back on a large scale then simply because the avenues of social media and participation in message boards werent as available as they are now. I said all that to say, it is something that never will stop especially in this day and age. 1.)  It is impossible for the AAA to truly regulate it fairly, 2.) the way parents and kids are today 3.) competition, if you aint cheatin, you aint competing or trying saying, coaches especially will always have the desire to be better, bigger, faster, stronger, than whoever their opponents are. 4.) you cant beat um so join um, it is almost impossible to win big today or compete at high levels without "recruiting" or figuring out ways around this broken regulation system, coaches, parents and players know and realize in order to beat the best that are doing it, you have to also to stay trully competitive. We might as well quit even debating whether its ok or not and focus time, energy and effort, in figuring out how to make whichever team we support, our kids play on, or we pull for better. It is what it is!

So if you live in a school district that has a team that has a losing record, then just move to a district that has a winning one?  Heck with that approach anyone can be a winner.  When things are tough, just move.  I'm not that kind of person.

So because your school has one ten rings and other schools have won one or none makes your school a winner and all others losers. thats like saying Hutch is a better coach than say Gayle Kaundart who won one. or John Widner who won one or Doyce Winninngham who won one or CD Taylor who won one or Joe Graham who won one or Joe Mallett who won one or Jim Pennington who won one.or Gerald Vines who won one. Yes Im name dropping because I can and if you don't know who those guys are then you cant call yourself a true fan. Credibility lost. and I like to win arguments especially against people who base opinions on what happened yesterday or last year! By the way if there was a Mt Rushmore of high school basketball coaches that would be the group you'd start with. So 10 does not make you a winner its more about how you do it!

I think of guys like Steve Lynch.  Arguably the best you'll find in any classification as a coach.  So far he has yet to win one.  Does that make him a loser?  I'd say he has forgotten more about the game than most of the cheaters have ever even known. 
But he won't be out there offering kids trailer houses to live in.  He has ethics that he believes in.

In that case. I guess I can understand that. but it's harder for players to be recognized if on a bad team.

So because your school has one ten rings and other schools have won one or none makes your school a winner and all others losers. thats like saying Hutch is a better coach than say Gayle Kaundart who won one. or John Widner who won one or Doyce Winninngham who won one or CD Taylor who won one or Joe Graham who won one or Joe Mallett who won one or Jim Pennington who won one.or Gerald Vines who won one. Yes Im name dropping because I can and if you don't know who those guys are then you cant call yourself a true fan. Credibility lost. and I like to win arguments especially against people who base opinions on what happened yesterday or last year! By the way if there was a Mt Rushmore of high school basketball coaches that would be the group you'd start with. So 10 does not make you a winner its more about how you do it!
well.. Winning 10 rings does make you a winner.. idc what you say. Move ins or not. Those kids have to have guidance and a coach to coach them and lead them the way. It takes a team. Even the kids that don't get to play are a huge part of the team. The kids that don't play have to practice with the kids that do. They make them better and encourage them. I understand all those coaches are great coaches and winners as well. But you mean to tell me winning 10 rings is not a winner? Winning almost near 2000 games isn't winning?😂 I understand your a Guy hater and all, but you gotta give credit where credit is due. and that is something you do to everyone but Guy!😂😂

I would think a really good player would be EASILY recognized on a bad team.  Plus, summer ball is where the players are scouted.  That is a unregulated meat factory!

Don't forget, Kaundart also won a JuCo National Championship at Westark (now UAFS), and while at Westark he was the D-League for Eddie Sutton's Razorback teams in the 70's and early 80's....

One things that needs to be taken into account is what kind of program are these kids coming from and going to? If its a program with little support, little excitement, a style of play they dont like or dont excel in, little expectations, then its hard to ask a 14,15,16,17 year old kid to stay there and try to change all of that in hopes by the time they are a senior they are relevant. Especially when I am sure they have seen some talented players come through and change nothing. High school is about getting and education and having fun. For most athletes their fun comes through playing sports and having a great time while doing it. When they are not having fun in athletics they will usually resort in something else usually something frowned upon to have fun. Either way a high school kid is not going to stay miserable nor should anyone ask them to. High school is short and you should have a blast while your their as an athlete. If a kid is at a school and miserable playing for his/her team yet they love the game then they need to go somewhere where they can excel on and off the court. Just my opinion

If your not good enough to win at your school I suggest move to another school and win.  Most kids aren't very good so just move and be remembered for moving trying to be be good somewhere else.  Jordan Magic and Bird should've played together that way they could've won.  Loyalty means nothing to parents coaches and players today.  I'm just glad as I sit in the stands at Brady Hipp Backboard Ernest Lion Central Whillock Dazzler McCarthy White Areuinme Shady Sack Horsemen Arena ppl know I stayed loyal!  Wait a sec those great players were loyal!  Never mind!  Carry on!

Credit given for every legitimate championship they've won. Both of them! Kudos to those homegrown kids that paid the price and did it the right way. So there! Those other eight no way. Your reference was that winning 10 somehow made you more of a winner than those that have won one or only a few and that simply isn't true! And I know that for a fact you sir have no clue who those other men I mentioned are or anything about their legacy and their impact on the game of basketball! Don't pretend that you do! Several of those men are now gone but their legacy lives on. what will Hutchs legacy be outside of Guy. What is it in heber Springs? In Hot Springs? In Mt Vernon? In Sacred heart? Concord? Omaha? Those rings won't mean much when gone but legacy and reputation will! To argue with a lifelong basketball junkie as myself is futile! Arguments that you simply cannot win! AS far as the subs go being part of the team Im guessing you are referring to those 7 or 8 kids that dont even stay in the locker room with the starters at halftime to receive that expert advice and coaching tips that is surely going on in there!  ::) ::) ::) Yeah those poor kids now I get it.

I don't know what your grudge against Hutch is? HE IS A WINNER. 10 rings, he will get 2000 wins, apart of the USA basketball team, don't forget he also has 2 State Softball Championship rings, 20 finals appearances in 40 years not even counting how many times he's went to the State tournament and schools put banners up for that stuff nowadays. and let's not forget McDonald's All American Coach ;). Yet he's not a winner? And as far a his legacy living "outside of Guy" I would almost guarantee you anyone who keeps up with basketball in Arkansas knows John Hutchcraft. Anywhere i go in Arkansas and say I'm from Guy I always get that " Oh do you know John Hutchcraft?" Give me a break. He'll be in the Arkansas Basketball HOF. He's got the perfect resume'. You sit back and watch GFWS keep losing and I'll be watching my Thunderbirds keep winning. And his legacy will live on Hot Springs, shoot he's been there plenty of times ;)

There are a couple of issues that need to be considered: 1) Sports are EXTRA Curriculuar- completely voluntary, not required in any way. Schools are designed for education and sports are extra- if you don't like the coach and don't love the game....don't play.

As far as switching schools- as long as the legislature allows (and encourages) school choice....the AAA is just following suit. Just my opinion.

You are exactly right, but like I said.  I will not move my kids to play on a "winning" team.  That is the easy way out in my opinion.

You don't get it ---Im not arguing the numbers Im arguing the method and the process! Its a really simple concept---the AAA let him get away with it in his early years and now its done as a habit. Plain and simple. he's been caught several times yet continues on business as usual. yes LOL everybody knows Hutch and his legacy and yes theres is probably about 60-70 Hall of Fame votes on the Conway(daughters school) and Fayetteville(favorite sons) school and it takes what maybe 25 to get in so yeah he's in most likely --again cheaply very cheaply but he's in!

I've never heard of a bigger hater. You change up what your arguing with every time I come back with something. Your acting like these kids do it by themselves. That they don't need him, when obviously they do. You argue about stuff you don't even know. and that's what amazes me! He's not an X's and O's coach I'll agree. But he knows the game and how it works. He knows when to call timeouts and change the momentum. He knows who to give the ball to when and where. He knows his players strengths and weaknesses. I can't argue with you much more on this, because you just cannot give credit to Guy or Hutch.

I think everyone is entitled to their opinion.  Bigman has obvious loyalties to Guy.  I will have to say that 99% of the time I cringe when I'm reading a post by Sack.  However....when he feels strongly about a topic he usually makes valid points and argues those points well.  To me, having been around Class A (B) basketball all my life, I feel that move ins have a bigger effect on smaller schools than they do in say a 4 or 5A setting.  When a school has a solid group, and then benefits from gaining two or three players every year or so move in......it really throws the natural balance out of whack.  Most class A schools only have two or three suds. If that many. 
The sad thing is a school like Concord, or Jasper has an extra special season, with the players they developed on their own, and they get their hopes up that this is their year.....and outta nowhere comes a school that is infused with immediate talent and is dream team unbeatable.  What's right about that?
Again, we are talking about the schools who can't win it unless they steal players from other schools.  Not saying players aren't allowed to transfer.  It's the coaches, superintendents, principals, board members etc...that actively help these moves happen.

So I made a 1% improvement wow Am I now in the running for Most Improved Poster. Im really quite well versed on all things class A basketball even though I tug on people just a little. My posts are never researched quite the contrary they are based on actual conversations with coaches and fans and referees and media types admin and school board members!

Will any of this really matter in 2017-2018?  Based on past history and what I have read on here, Kirby will make it to the semi's and lose and Guy will win the tournament.  County Line, Nevada, Marvell, Shirley, Omaha, etc all appear to have good teams, some have better coaching than others, some more talented than others, some more disciplined than others, and they have a shot at joining Kirby and Guy in the final four.  Some of which may be playing guys who have been together since 6th grade, some may have junior and senior move-ins.  Right now, the way the rules are, it won't really matter...all that matters is the team that they put on the floor, and most folks only remember the champion...a few remember the runner-up.  So, I say, let it play out, Guy wins and everybody goes home.  As an aside, I just wonder how many move-ins, Parkdale, Carthage, McNeil, Violet Hill, Viola, Delight, Saratoga, Greers Ferry, Emerson, Viola, etc had in the years they were champions........

That is only fair according to fair play and rules enforcement! And I'm pretty positive there's a track record that speaks loudly to bending the rules and at least in two cases breaking them!

I believe Hutch understands the game and is great at getting kids to move in.  I agree with earlier post without kids moving in he might have 2-3 rings.  At least a few teams over the years done it the right way!  Loyalty is special

And if y'all are just so sure he's cheating this why don't you just turn him in and see what happens? Nothing will happen. Call again next year.

In a couple years, GFWS will have a boy's team to talk about.  I believe Guy got to see them earlier this year.  The Junior Boy's team, to my knowledge have yet to be defeated.  Beat Quitman by 46.

it shouldn't matter a kid should play in the district his family lives in unless his parents teach at a different school district. Moving around to get a better team should not be allowed but the AAA still allows it so some teams are going to take advantage of it.

You surely can't rhink every coach out their knows exactly what they're doing? Some aren't great fits, some make dumb decisions. I saw an Oden coach call 5 time outs in the first 3 minutes... Hes no longer employed there, but he obviously was making great decisions lol

You litterally are just trying to Start stuff at this point. There is no move ins going to guy everyone would know by now. Not a single person does so how about you go back to "reliable" source you say you have and tell them they just need to keep their mouths shut about things they dont actually know.

Maulmelle Charter is good. Like I said most improved team this year. WV Guy should've beat worse than they did. The Bay loss bay just outplayed Guy that night. Guy is the better team. But not when they're heads aren't on straight. And Sack, just cause a good team loses to an average team doesn't mean you count them out yet.

Omaha was good last year I watched them a few times. They are really good this year too. Not trying to start an argument because I don't mean it how it may sound but from what I've seen on here no one really talks about teams other than Guy or Mve and Wonderview. Especially looking back to last year if they aren't doing well it gets quiet and people start a thread on move ins. Seems like those are the only teams people usually care about or at least that's what it seemed like last year. Oh and Bay but since the chosen one isn't talking much this year to me it looks like he must've went to Mammoth....

Maybe class A teams, but not players. There is some pretty good players in class A.

No there isn't! Lots of pretty good players! Not one single great player! I haven't seen a single player play that will have meaningful minutes after high school! Yes I've seen Guy play

What about the kid from ICC? Western Grove? Ive seen the top players in the state and their on it for their grade. Also the big kid from Timbo is on it as well. I think he is just an honorable mention though. And so is number 1 from Guy, also an honorable mention.

Couldn't tell you his name, but I've just heard stuff about him. He's an honorable mention of the best players of the 2019 class. Just looked it up and his name is Hunter Baker.

I made the trip north last week to watch Omaha play and they just happen to be playing Western Grove where this Baker kid is. He's a one man show probably shot the ball 25 to 30 times and what I could get from people around me this was a normal night. He scored 22 points according to Harrison paper today and played complete game.  Omaha was no disappointment they are the real deal. They also have one of the best players I've seen in 1 A this year in Garrett Matlock. He's probably 6'6'' and can play anywhere on court if needed. He played 2 and half quarters and paper said he had 36 points. Went back and looked at their big game against Valley Springs where papered showed he had 33 points. Someone said college coaches were there and he didn't disappoint. They said, he has a few offers currently and several schools from about 4 state area is recruiting him. I also saw in paper where back in summer he lead his AAU team to the Hoop Play National Championship and won it. I saw where he was on the All State tournament team last year on Maxprep.  Omaha has good guard play and are deep off the bench.

Played 4 years in college. I was there for a reason. I'm sure you we're a great player. Take your stat book and go see for yourself.

You won the 83 title... get over yourself. Not saying you weren't a good player, but if  you were just a "good" player in the 80s then you prolly wouldn't stand a chance. Way more athleticism and ability in today's game. I do agree though at the same time 1a is kinda weak rn.

These kids today wouldn't stand a chance! They don't hate to lose bad enough and that alone would make it a mismatch. Way too skilled on top of that! Put in more time in a week than these kids do in a month! The good players then were way better than the good players today because of that. There just wasn't as many of them. Not an 83 graduate. Sorry to disappoint!

They had a kid move to the area from J'Boro Westside. I think the family is from the area originally.
