Lets see out of the frying pan and into the fire. East Robertson went from David lipscomb and Goodpasture to all the abc schools. While everyone else in the former region except Goodpasture now has a much easier region. I'd say T$$AA screwed over East.

Region 5 will be the toughest over the long haul.

50 minute delay for an injury to be life flighted to hospital. ER 30 west 8

The best way to handle the privates is send Ezell to region 3. Send DCA and goodpasture to region 4 with Smith Co. and that group of schools. Send CPA and FRA to region 5 with Lewis Co. and Fairview etc. Now all privates have been separated and all the publics still have playoff opportunities. Sorry ,Ezell you will have to travel to Chattanooga.

Here is another issue that has to be considered. Regions with an even number of teams such as 6,8 or 10 teams make scheduling easier. If a region has an odd number of teams one team has no region opponet for that given week. They then must search far and wide to find an opponet or play a week 0 game to get 10 games. For this reason I believe t$$aa will try to 6, 8, 10 team regions. Yes ,I know it can't always be done.

Also t$$aa has used natural boundaries to regionalize teams. Such as East or West of the Tn. river or they have used north/south lines. Look at the current region ELA is in: Stewart Co., Houston Co., westmoreland, east robertson , lipscomb, station camp and goodpasture. There is more than 100 miles East to West in this region. How did Harpeth not make it into this region? The T$$aa answer was that Harpeth fell to the south of the line drawn. If you can read a map you know that this makes no sense. Harpeth and waverly for that matter are both north of Interstate 40.

At predraft combines and other NFL workouts three guys ran sub 4.2 40 times. Alexander Wright from auburn(wr), Deion Sanders and I want to say Bo Jackson.With the fastest time at 4.15. I haven't kept up with the draft in the last 4 or 5 years so there could be more. I also wonder what Darrell Green (cb) ran?

How does one contact coacht ?

math, social studies, science, foreign langauge and possible middle school spots

Stewart county is looking for assistant football coaches on both sides of the ball. If interested contact 615- 232-5179.

What have you coached football wise? Position?

Any one heard any news out of Dover? When will they decide? Spring practice is close isn't it?

Who is coach swafford?

Does anyone have any clue to how 2A football regions 4 & 5 will look after the multiplier? Where will CPA, FRA, Ezell, DAvidson and Donelson academies end up? Would some of these end up in one of these two regions? If so who do you think ends up where? Please throw us a bone!

Back to the original post , If 9 new single"a" teams have entered since the last classification there will be a ripple effect. T$$AA tries to keep an equal amount of schools in each level(A,AA,AAA,AAAA,AAAAA). This number had been around 57 schools in football. If all these new schools have small enrollments they stay in class A ball and larger schools will get bumped up. If these 9 were the only new schools that would add 2 schools to each classification level.

Of course their have been other larger schools built around the state and it throws my example off. There may end up being 62-65 per classification level. Secondly the multiplier also will cause some adjustments with 8 or so schools going up to class AA ball and 1 or 2 going up to AAA ball.

The 1985 Unicoi County team was 41-1 and ranked #4 in the nation. That team still holds quite a few of the state records and a handful of national records. I'll take germantown, Farragut and this team as the best 3 but in no particular order.

If tennessee has ranked 15th over the past 5 years. It basicly means every state with a better climate has more or better players. You do the math: Florida, georgia, south carolina, alabama, mississippi, texas, oklahoma, arkansas, louisana, arizona, california, new mexico, hawaii= 13 states. Now factor the states that have much larger populations such new york, michigan,or ohio. In my estimation if tennessee is in the 15-20 range it is right were it should be.

Remember that the teams in these regions had the opportunity to not play in their current region. There are quite a few schools who play up a classification or have pleaded their case with tssaa to be in a certain region. Some of this concerned travel, these schools did not want to be in a region in which they would/might have to drive 100 east one week and 70 miles west the next. Other problems crop up from the metro areas,many of these schools want to stay together, so the 3 schools to the east and 2 schools to the north and 3 to the west whose closest region opponets would/should come from the metro area are forced to scramble for a home. Thus tssaa has some awkward regions and playoff situations

In the mid 80's a player had 92 in a 42 game season. The team went 41-1. If I'm not mistaken this is or was the national high school record. He was from upper East Tenn.

I heard that Beech's defensive coordiantor is leaving to join Coach Roger Holmes in the head coaching ranks in georgia. They will be coaching in the same county in georgia. first is this true and second will the student be able to beat the teacher. How will this effect beech's coaching staff.
