Some chatter on the twitter-verse that our friend, Rio, is likely headed to Auburn. I hope, for his sake, he will finally stick somewhere.

There's Bruce Pearl, poaching our guys again.

I really don't understand how a guy like that can jump around so much at the high school level. Do these states not have a residency rule? I'm pretty sure in Ohio you have to live with a relative in the school district in order to transfer to a particular school. Unless these were all private schools. Seems like a huge waste of time and money traveling back and forth.

Where I live all of the districts have open enrollment. Meaning, if you can provide your own transportation, you can attend that school. In the beginning, the school districts had to border one another, not sure that is the case now. However, if you switch schools (with the exception being going back to your home school) you have to sit out a calendar year from sports.

I believe the border school district rule still applies to open enrollment in Ohio. My stepmom is a secretary at a high school in Ohio and has to deal with kind of stuff constantly.

It depends on the school district in question and what open enrollment policies the district has adopted. Some districts say bordering districts only, while others allow OE to/from any district.

Also, the OHSAA just reduced it so that players have to sit out only half a year. They don't have to sit out at all if they can prove the move wasn't made for athletic reasons.

Rio gets a mention in Arkley's latest article-

"One final note: I didn’t see every summer workout last year, but early returns on 2014 are better in regards to chemistry. The Rio Adams experience grated on a lot of players’ nerves last summer, but it’s been nothing but positive with introduction of all the new faces this month."

according to his twitter account he appears to be back home and not enrolled in a school.

He's trying to set a record for being associated for the most high school and college basketball teams. I wonder at what point his baggage outweighs his talent for absolutely everyone and no one on any level wants him. I also am not real clear on why he so quickly fails to work out everywhere he goes.

His name is Rio and he transfers when he can
Just like that river twisting through a dusty land
And when he switches schools it confuses every fan
Oh Rio, Rio best of luck in Alabam.
