If academics are truly the concern, you're probably right, he should focus on studies and not spend time at a ball field.
The public isn't stupid. We all know what is happening.

And what the public thinks or knows changes what? Is there some jealousy. Bottem line is he is doing what he can to move forward.
Too much. These people didn't need to know all of that. Hes got every right to do what he's doing and good luck to him. Maybe this will work out for everyone.tvc_fan wrote: ↑Fri Mar 02, 2018 1:04 pmWell for your information, he doesn't even have enough credits to graduate Meigs right now, he will have them and be able to graduate Eastern, And Meigs ha a shot at going far this season as well being they dropped down to D3, So it has nothing to do with going somewhere for a better chance to go somewhere that would go further in tournament play. He was released from the Meigs Baseball team a week after practice started, because he went and played in a basketball tournament during a weekend on his own free time..At Meigs they punish you even if you shoot a basketball, take a jog or whatever during the season. Heck he was even punished in football for playing in the Hoops Project in the middle of summer, when football practices weren't mandatory. So Failing grades at Meigs, would not play any games at Meigs, would not graduate at Meigs...I think going to Eastern, being able to graduate and play at least half a season is a pretty wise choice there Mr Know It All.Fonzie wrote: ↑Fri Mar 02, 2018 12:42 pmI sure hope we all can see through the "academics" bs, he is leaving to go join an Eastern team that would have won the TVC Hocking, Sectional, and District without him, so now they will have a shot of a regional push. He would simply be leaving to try and join a team that has a better shot. In all honesty, its sad. Probably most of all, for the parent that signs the papers to allow it to happen. As for sitting out half the season, there are several ways around that little rule. I am sure we will see which one they use in the upcoming weeks.Michigan n Trumbull wrote: ↑Fri Mar 02, 2018 8:04 am

On another note, the fact that Brent Bissell let probably his top pitcher walk for not following team rules shows me that Coach Bissell does not play favorites at all and for that he deserves so much credit. It's refreshing to see a guy that sticks to his guns. I'm sorry it happened to the young man, but Coach Bissell laying a hard line shows me he coaches for the right reasons and is trying to mold young men. Team first. Kudos to Coach Bissell. I hope for a happy ending for everyone involved, including Christian and I hope he learns life lessons from this to help him in.the future. Good luck to everyone.
Agree, enough of the "Days of Our Lives" soap opera.
I agree . I like wellston to take the pennant this seasonDandy Don wrote: ↑Tue Mar 06, 2018 6:47 amAgree, enough of the "Days of Our Lives" soap opera.
Wellston and/or Athens and maybe even a 2 or 3 way tie. Just depends on how the inevitable cancellations and make-up games align and what that does to pitching. Wellston has some very underrated arms and is deeper than you think. Rockets will be there in the end I do think.
