    So let's have 8th graders play up if the middle school feeds all students to one high school. Would we be saying the middle school program is not important so the high school can have some more bench warmers.

    What about school districts who have multiple high schools and middle schools and have open enrollment? I see a public school recruitment feeding frenzy.

    This would be a bad idea

    Generally the middle school players move up when their seasons end unless they are high school starter-ready. 

  2. 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. 
     

     

  3. 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. 

  4. 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.

    That rural vs metro notion was breifly a topic....6 years ago....it is a worthy debate.  Much like if you have students that pay tuition to go to your "public" school should a multiplier be used??

    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.

    I say we have the exact same Districts as basketball with 4 classes. As for privates, there is another board on the T for them. 

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

    I don’t disagree, they will not move. He will move to the dorm. He will board like the other 35 football players at Baylor. I don’t see how you can move to Baylor and it not be for football, but it happens evidently. Year after year they get more Canadians and out of state kids. What’s another QB, RB, WR, TE, LB or DL. I’m pretty sure they have a strong 25 or 26 there already behind Muschamp, so not sure why they would go there. Mccallie loses their QB and I’m not sure who the next Canadian in line is. 

    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) 

  8. 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.
