[UPDATE] 2016 WR Robbie Lofton is enrolled at Tates Creek

[Commonwealthsports]

Robbie Lofton, who played at Bowling Green this past season, is now enrolled at Tates Creek. Not sure what happened, but he did not go to Scott Co. as was planned.

The 6-foot-3, 175-pound pass catcher is a legit Division-I prospect. He's received interest from Kentucky, Louisville, Missouri and WKU.

Thats a really stupid comment Green. Suggesting that Scott county recruited a kid from 3 hours away and from the Bowling Green program to boot!

Your right. Depends on what the KHSAA says. I know that in SOME cases they check on the bona fide change of address and make sure the kid lives with parents or the parent or guardian with custody. Some schools don't get an answer right away, but some schools get decisions made by KHSAA pretty quick.

You are right it was not a great comment, BUT the comment above is very true on immediate responses from KHSAA and taking their time with some places.

BG to Georgetown is a long commute to get away from all his friends, and a place where he won 2 championship rings. 318 miles round trip to play receiver for a wing-t team instead of a spread team. Yeah, Scott recruited him.

Never said he got recruited. You did. Just RELAX! You guys got him and that's good. All I'm saying is some people's transfer papers get approved faster then some others. For instance a public school kid going to private school, could take up to 3-6mos. A private school kid transferring to a public school, Eh, a week or two. A public school kid going to another public school change of address or not ruled eligible in some cases immediately. It doesn't look right for the KHSAA to rule on the kid this quick. I do have a question and then a possible follow up. Did he finish the semester at Bowling Green High School? If so, how is he ruled eligible if he hasn't officially enrolled? Well maybe three questions, Has Scott County already started school?

I'm sure he's talented enough it won't affect him too much.

I can assure you all he was not recruited.

Second, he did finish the semester at Bowling Green.

Third, while your argument may be true about how it takes different amounts of time to get cleared at different schools,
but I can tell you it has more to do with the administrators at said schools doing what they need to do in a timely manner.

Good Deal! You are correct especially on the very last sentence.
