Jones appeal denied

To no surprise at all, Jones High School's hardship appeal case of Daxx Garman has been denied by the OSSAA. The ruling came after an executive session Wednesday.

Jones stood 7-2 overall and 6-0 in District 2A-2 and had clinched the district title, but now stand at 2-8 overall. The investigation began after an anonymous email was received by the OSSAA about the situation.

A subsequent investigation found Garman, who is in his first season at Jones after transferring from another school (Carl Albert), to be ineligible.

Jones had not filed for a hardship waiver on the player's behalf before the investigation into the player's eligibility.

I sure hope Jones does not take this any further and hold up the play-off's like we saw a few years back with the Shawnee situation, and that appears that it will not be the case.

The Garman family says they will be leaving Jones. Although, from what I read the family has one kid going to Choctaw, one kid going to Carl Albert, and the other was at Jones. Hmmm
