I tried to post the new 1204 on here (.pdf file) and it said it was too big. I'm at work now and don't have access to it, but if someone will tell me how to share it, I will be glad to post it tonight.
In a nutshell, there is a phrase in the new CONSTITUTION that says that if two schools mutually agree to use not UIL officials, they can do so as long as they file a report within 5 days of the game.
TASO believes that if we force their hand and they have no other choice, they will have to do this. They further speculate that if the UIL were to discipline a school for using TASO officials instead of UIL officials, the schools involved would take up the torch for us.
When the TASO office was in Mesquite and run by Blackwood, he took care of problems. The points were updated, the insurance was in place, the training by him and his staff was properly and actively disseminated. When the office was moved, there were 3 executive directors in about 5 years time. Instability at the head of the snake was the downfall of TASO. Football continued to run fairly smoothly, but the other sports did not do so well. The orgainzation, in order to survive needs to hire an executive director to lead during this battle. We need a general...someone to unite everyone and get things done.
