All this outlandish showboating and inexcusable behavior is a result of everything that is wrong with what society labels (no, it’s not organic) black culture”. Too much affiliation with hip hop that promotes no humility whatsoever, lack of leadership, a matriarchal upbringing, and which is all anecdotal of not having a walk of faith in the lord. Is it these kids fault? Not 100% I would mostly blame the adults/gaurdians/parents of the young men which im sure most want to have structure & discipline. But I’ll say one last thing, for the ones who let this foolishness happen or look the other way, just know in life, the standards you have of someone is symbolic of what you really think of them.

💯 bro. I blame the adults who should be better role models for our children. Plus this is all about winning more than teaching kids life lessons it appears.

Was a huge supporter of JM, even going at it with the Radford fans in there defense. What I can’t get with at Petersburg is the blatant disregard/respect for the game or there opponents. The transfer from Catholic has A TON of growing up to do, all he does is talk smack while going out of town with a shooting split of 30-40–60%. T’d in the game they “needed” him in at John Wall because that’s what’s more important than executing the game plan… The freshman is what my old coach would call a “Prima Donna”, has the worst body language while shooting maybe just north of 60% from the FT line, while getting dogged on the defensive side of the ball. A far fall from Red Thompson who led his team from 9th grade with the upmost respect for the game, and his pops was/is a true leader who would never be out there flipping the bird like a clown. If you noticed, very few of Ty’s players stick or elevate at the next level… usually bounce around, then out….

It's 💯 true. If they play in post season petersburg will have to forfeit the games.

My question is, if a rising senior and his family move into a new school district they can’t play sports/postseason in new school district because they transferred? Seems flawed…

I do believe there're some stipulations involved, but I think one major problem is that the families aren't moving into the district it's the kids under the coach's and some other Guardian over seeing the kids. And also just to transfer because you want to play for a particular coach or with your AAU team friends is a problem that's why some of these policies and rules are changing .

We've got this same scenario at Rocktown HS. We've got a pair of kids that transferred from Harrisonburg in the summer, admin at both schools felt some type of way about the move being about athletics. So the district committee of the Valley ruled them eligible to play regular season but ineligible for playoffs. If any transfer happens after 8th grade, kids will be subject to gaining regular season eligibility and also playoff eligiblity via thei district admin committee(princiapls every school in an athletic district)

I think he's a good dude. But really not a great coach. He's more of a great recruiter who brings players in from other schools in Virginia and other states that play AAU. That's what he did at John Marshall and now at petersburg. He couldn't win with just home grown talent in petersburg or in other words he would win some games but not championships or at a high level. So recruiting is what helps him win not so much coaching because these players actually are just playing play ground basketball 🏀.

Has something to do with VHSL rules, transferring from one school to another. Therefore he cannot play in the post season or the playoffs. It's more to it but I can't explain it.
