The Franklin High football team's season may not be over just yet.
After falling to Arlington Bowie 31-14 in the Class 5a Division 1 playoffs, El Paso Independent School District Athletic Director Ken Owen received a call from the University Interscholastic League to keep the Cougars practicing. Owen did not know the reason but said Bowie is under investigation for some type of player waiver.
If Bowie used any kind of ineligible player the Volunteers would forfeit the game. A decision by the UIL is expected Monday.

May the thruth come out! It would not be fair if the other team cheated their way to play offs. Good Luck Franklin!! ALL El Paso teams still in it YOU CAN DO IT, Got to BELIEVE!

UIL states in DFW area that the player was elgibale during reg season, and now recants that "the player may be un-elgibale!" This was an UIL mistake, saying they did not find the proper forms for the move in into the school! If so, then the players & coaches should not be punished! UIL should stand up and take the blame!! NO CHEATING GOING ON, just a HUGE MISTAKE FROM THE UIL!!!!! Good luck either way it goes!!

Arlington ISD athletic director O.J. Kemp said she was contacted by the league on Nov. 20 regarding the matter.
If the UIL allows Bowie to have a waiver approved retroactively, no action would need to be taken. If not, Franklin could be advanced.

Arlington Bowie’s playoff path will be left in its own hands.
The University Interscholastic League has informed Bowie that it will be able to advance to the 5A Division I regional round to face DeSoto – 2 p.m. Saturday at Bedford’s Pennington Field.

UIL players in the DFW area elgibale chapter first season, and now recants "players may not elgibale!" This is a UIL error, said they did not find a suitable form to the school move! If this is the case, then the players and coaches should not be punished! The UIL should stand up and take responsibility! No cheating, just a huge mistake from the UIL! ! ! Good luck either way, it will be!
