LCA forward Galen Alexander ruled eligible

[CajunT]

You are mistaken about that. I believe that the Ledoux brothers transferred in from North Central during their freshman year. I know for a fact that LCA is actively recruiting players. They recruited a player from STM this year. In my opinion, Mouton has raised some valid points in regards to the "methods' that they use to attract players to their program.

I haven't heard Mouton's comments, but if their methods are violating LHSAA bylaws then file a complaint. But it's my understanding he has known Coach Starks for sometime and if it is within the bylaws, he should have the option of transferring after sitting out. I remember a football player named Javon Walker that lived one block from Northside and ended up at STM. I also remember the outrage from parents at that program and how STM had to defend themselves. Lets not pretend everyone transferred to STM for the education, there have been a few athletes that have played in the baseball and softball programs over the years that came from public feeder schools.

I heard similar things at Teurlings HS when Dylan Bossier followed D'Shaie Landor to play in the football program. Folks from Carencro were not to happy and made a number of allegations, none were found to be accurate after inquiries from the LHSAA.

I've had two children play high school sports, one at Teurlings and the other at Comeaux. I've seen it from both sides and people are always quick to make allegations. I believe if an athlete wants to transfer to another school, public or private and meets the requirements, I have no problems with it.

Mouton filed the original complaint.

Mouton filed the original complaint. I've seen it in writing.

And? What was the final ruling?

[jumboragncajun]

No evidence to make him ineligible.

I thought it interesting that the AES coach said that LCA could beat the Cajuns. Yeah, don't think so. That's a bit insulting.

Did Mouton and Starks play together?

Sorry, Too lazy to google it & too young to remember.

Goes to show you how stupid, verbose and egomaniacal high school basketball coaches can be. Especially in the AAU era.

Yes Eric and Byron played together.

MAT. considering Eric played for the Cajuns, I really don't think he was serious about that comment. I think it was after the frustration of Byron leaving his starters in for the ENTIRE game to exact revenge on Mouton for bringing up Alexander's eligibility. Was VERY disappointed that Byron would do that. jmo

Ok, thanks for clarity on it.

Byron is a nice guy and all, but he's done many questionable things in the way of competive decorum. Not to mention, as was mentioned before, he's directly connected to all the under handed, shady crap going on at LCA. I've lost a lot of respect for him over the years.
