The big question is, Lila or Tyra? That's my equivalent of Marianne or Ginger. For the start I always liked Lila a bit more, but Tyra has made up some huge ground over the last 1.5 seasons.

Watching season 1, you kind of assume he's an upperclassman: team star, team leader, best friends with the veteran star QB (who is assumed to be a Sr. because he's getting D1 schollie offers), banging his 30 year old neighbor, etc. Not your typical sophomore.
I think that part was intentionally left vague so that in case the show was renewed they could bring him back for a couple of years.Street was definitely a senior, but Riggins was always kind of vague. You assumed he was as well given his standing on the team and among the circle of friends, but they never outright said it.Last edited by MarkGrace; 08-28-2009, 09:26 AM.So Russell...what do you love about music?

They seemed to forget what class people were in, somehow Riggins was a 5th year senior?
Which I guess brings up a related point. If Riggins was a Sr. in season 1, he would have been a 6th year Sr. in the last season, not 5th.So Russell...what do you love about music? To begin with, everything.

I saw at least two kids play during last year's hoops team that were 5 years, and the team my friend coaches will have a 5th year kid this year. 19 years old playing high school ball. Wow.

They also encourage people to take an extra year to finish high school if they needed to.
But when the budget cuts came and they started giving schools revenue base on the number of classes being taken instead of the simple headcount, they got rid of Super Senior sports.
The counselors also stopped encouraging students to take their time and encouraged them to take the classes needed to graduate.

The WA rule doesn't have to do with age but rather hardship. If you are not on track to graduate, and can point to some instance in your life that held you back from graduating, then you can submit an appeal to get an extra year of athletic eligibility to play while you finish your schooling.So Russell...what do you love about music?
