Well in fact you would be wrong. One of the crew in fact told all of the members after our meeting with Timmons that this was an individual decision that we all should make.
That being said, I do not think UIL is right and I do not think TASO is 100% right on this deal. I hate being told I have to do something, kinda goes against my grain. I also am not real crazy about the UIL approach and spokesman. On the other hand, I do not believe for a minute that TASO is the end all, be all.
I sincerely hope that some type of compromise can be reached where TASO football ( or whatever the hell we want to call it) and UIL work together for what is best for the schools ( the kids), the officials and the coaches. Perhaps TASO football registers, trains, and keeps records for accountability to UIL. UIL provides the insurance, background checks, etc. Dues are split accordingly through UIL.
If we do reach some type of compromise, then the next week I would like to see a statewide meeting, not a convention, of TASO football where we the members tell the board to get their act together on training. I am the training officer for our chapter and you know what i got from TASO about training........ zero, zip, nada. Everything I got was scrounged from another source. TASO is supposed to be about training, if that is so, they need to do it!
