AJ no one is going to get on here give up their sources nor their own identity if they want to remain anonymous
Can't. Then I won't get any more information and I'll be where you are.Again where are you getting this information from? Please let me know!!

Seriously. If a player is ejected from a contest, they MUST sit the next game at that same level before returning to play. If the contest was the final game of a season, the player MUST sit out the first game of the next season they compete in at the same level.
Those words are not a quote of the DIAA rule, but darn close.
Here is the situation. If a player gets kicked out of a game, and the team forfeits their final game, and the next game is an "All-Star" game sanctioned by DIAA, and they were to play in the game, they can't.
In most cases, the player or coach who gets tossed leave the event. The problem with away teams is where does the kid go? The locker room that's locked and unsupervised? The cases I have seen in basketball usually have the coach take responsibility for the kid on the bench. Didn't work this time.When a player is ejected from a game, does that player have to leave the gym? The bench? I'm honestly asking what happens? Does a coach escort the player out?
I stand by what I said there was a meeting with the DIAA and they put the pressure on AI's principle. Whats done is done its time parents in these schools like AI that have a negative target on their back start policing their children properly because just like somebody said in this thread earlier its not fair and they need to understand that going in. So handle your self accordingly. So all you guys enjoy your state tournament.......@dnell looks to me like I knew the facts buddy. Maybe instead of arguing with everyone on this forum you should start listening to others.
At the Principals house?AI is having another protest
Merv closed the door. Doesn't seem like DMA's gonna open it.
What a joke! Is this supposed to be a form of journalism?
Apparently, also don't know how they are a racist team when they have an African American coach and players. No racist comments were made. Race has nothing to do with this whole situationWhat a joke! Is this supposed to be a form of journalism?
Dnell, I can appreciate your passion in this discussion and respect it.
I have seen teams that have had to carry a negative perception/reputation. The problem with it is that it becomes a self-fulfilling cycle. The players don't get the calls because of their rep, then they get angry and react, thereby continuing the stereotype. This goes on and on, I have seen it happen at many levels, in many sports, with many teams.
Making the process more difficult of changing the rep, is the preconceptions of officials and opposing fans involved. Often times they go in expecting a bad attitude, not doing the team in question any favors. Once again, things don't go their way and they react, once again confirming what others have said about them.
The only teams I have seen successfully break this cycle, have been those with strong leadership and backing from the administration. It begins with the first and hardest step, taking it. It takes years to change the mindset of a program and there will be bumps along the way. Your getting fouled, blow past it. You got called for traveling, give the ref the ball and play defense. Fans are taunting you, take it. All the while, say nothing. I get it, I grew up in a place where nobody "took it". My friends may have been tough then, but half of them were either locked up, on the streets or dead by 40.
This starts with the coach as well. If he is complaining about the officials, he has just built in an excuse for the players he is leading to do the same. Players, no matter how good they are, if they are causing on a trouble, show them the bench. If they want to leave let them. It's not the type of player you need on the court.
Eventually, over time, the perception of your team will change. It will take a few years, but all the while you will become a better team because of it. It builds team chemistry as well, players know that the only ones they can count on to do the right thing for them are their teammates.
The future starts now. The past is just that, the past. Best of luck in the future to AI.
First off let me say I appreciate your message and I receive your message. I can tell that it came from a place of love unlike most of the posters on here. At the end of the day I just hope that these kids learn the ultimate lesson and that is just like you said perception is reality and some time you have to endure people looking at you and treating you negativity because of who and what they THINK you are but yet in still you must take the high road. Again I thank you.Dnell, I can appreciate your passion in this discussion and respect it.
