Judge says ex-Tulsa Central

player can play at Idabel

IDABEL (AP) — A judge says former Tulsa Central running back K.J. Rucker can take the field this fall for Idabel.

McCurtain County court documents filed Friday show that the judge issued a temporary injunction allowing Rucker to play for Idabel. According to the documents, the judge concluded that Rucker could be irreparably damaged if barred from playing in the first seven games of the 2010 season, as the Oklahoma Secondary School Activities Association had done.

The judge wrote that no monetary compensation could ever restore to Rucker the right and privilege to enjoy taking part in high school sports.

The OSSSA ruled Rucker ineligible for those games because the organization said he had violated residency rules while playing at Central in 2008.

OSSAA executive secretary Ed Sheakley declined to comment on the injunction. A hearing on possible further action in the case — which could include lifting the injunction — is set for Sept. 8.
