TSSAA to consider allowing eighth graders to participate in high school if the middle school/junior high is the high school’s feeder. It’s long overdue especially those who could aid in sports like softball or wrestling. An example here, the girls basketball team is limited in numbers currently because of injury. That makes it hard to schedule JV games so freshmen aren’t getting the game time they need. Even if they don’t play any varsity games, playing in JV would benefit the players and team. Several opponents allow it already due to the building/principal rule and those getting to play high school a year early benefit. If this is voted down it should be cut out for everyone.

Should try and trade him and a pair of 3rd round draft picks from an area eighth grade for a Division I left tackle commitment.

Watch the language please

With NIL, student-athlete movement, and even talk of a high school transfer portal with available talent listed, I can see classifications going to success rate/strength instead of school size, or at least a mix. Things seem to be getting out of control.

Needing a new head coach. No playoff wins since 2014 after starting hot their first 3 or 4 years.

120 yards in penalties, horse collar in the end zone after a TD (called), kicking a player in the head when the player is on the ground (uncalled), 2 15-yarders after one play, they had enough to overcome it last night but that stuff will give them no shot against Giles. Wished Seq’s leading tackler had been in there, went out late vs Tyner and was having an outstanding 9th grade season (also on offense) but it happens. Hoping the teams meet in the postseason next year.

Some of the schools in urban counties were listed as rural in a sample sent out to consider. It was a mess. Seemed almost to be intentionally misleading to squash the idea. They used each school’s population per square mile instead of how adjacent they were to more possible students.

Some of the small schools, charters, and magnets don’t have football and it would throw things off.

What’s the solution if any? No boarding teams eligible for playoffs? (Play regular season and go out of state for a bowl-type game)

Wouldn’t mind something like those winning 2 games or less drop a class, those winning 13 games or more/winning state go up a class. Redivide each year, have it done absolutely no later than a month after state games to help stop schools through no fault of their own playing lower than they should due to rapid enrollment rise. 6A risers go Division II, 1A droppers lose their program or go 8-man. not really.

Too many were “confused” even though it seemed pretty straight forward to me.

Seq-Tyner 20-20. Indians very effective passing.

When does administration away from the field start getting some blame? Hard to think they didn’t know what was happening.

No injunction sought, season over, Tennessean says

So when is this injunction to be decided?

I’m wondering if any angry programs are waiting until the final buzzers tonight to contact TSSAA.

Upset brewing early (very early)

During their strong years were they getting in guys could have been at Tyner, Central, and Brainerd?

Season

Saw a player listed with 15 solo, 75 assists, more or less. Another on the same team had a similar amount on both and they rank high statewide. Is that kind of stat padding ever legit?

What has happened to ND?

high school on the right path, should again be hosting a first round game with a lot of 9th and 10th graders in the line up.

Mostly just watch here to help make sure nobody goes overboard.

Busy watching the Sweetwater topic and making sure none threaten to meet behind the Black Bull Tavern.
