I have been informed via the basketball chapter that the UIL is creating some, "back door" organization and will still manage the basketball officiating organizations. They are still trying to solicit dues for next year and they are fully aware that this bill is destined to take effect.
Evidently,
Manor Road's resident "Good-Time Charlie" ain't exactly having himself that after Representative Thompson's Bill passed virtually uncontested through the House and the Senate, and now sits on Ol' Guv Goodhair's desk, awaiting his signature!
And bless his pointed little heart, the
Good UIL Dr. must have had some premonition of that, because they went and made the UIL basketball folks change their organization's name.
Dr. Charlie had best be concerned with finding himself a sponsor to pay for all of the TASO officials background checks that he so covets, instead of attempting to charge statewide officials with a " UIL registration fee," which I understand that under the terms of the bill, would now be prohibited.
That, and a wayward circus, where he can fastly abandon his now, non-functional,
Dancing Monkey/Director of Officials!
