West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice says he wants state lawmakers to take another look at a new law addressing high school sports transfers.
CHARLESTON, W.Va. — West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice said Wednesday he would like state lawmakers to take another look at a new law addressing high school sports transfers after several football games involved lopsided scores to start the season.
Lawmakers passed a bill this year allowing high school athletes to switch schools one time during their careers and be immediately eligible. The bill became law without the Republican governor’s signature. Transfers previously had to sit out for one year of athletic competition unless they received a waiver.
“The vote was so significant in favor. I felt like it was a mistake,” Justice said during his weekly media availability. “I felt like vetoing a bill only would have led to an override, which is a waste of time.”
