I can't help but think that this was a foregone conclusion when the coach left Clinton with all of those players in tow after last season. I hope that a stronger message is sent to those that thought this was legal and would work.
Six of eight deemed eligible after first appeal. Marlboro is seeking final appeal over last two players.
