SC Soccer

As we all know that this thread traces to the Goose Creek football fiasco, imagine how folks in the Creek would have felt if their football AND basketball team had won state championships with an (arguably) ineligible player, only to have those titles stripped retroactively.

That said, the headline "Keep politics out of prep sports" is laughable on its face. The recent history of the SCHSL is littered with unequal treatment of programs/infractions, based on the magnitude/connections of the coach/program involved. In other words, politics.

The real shame is that the SCHSL can not present an adequate defense for its rules and how it applies them. Too many lightweights in the league office.

So most of you want some arbitrary figure at the department of education to make decisions for you rather than the administrators at different high schools that currently make up the executive committee. I for one can see no advantage to giving up local control for state control - heres a novel idea just follow the rules or suffer the consequences

Agreed. Here's the problem. IT HASN'T WORKED!
