    I guess because our schools are 6-9 and 9-12 under different roofs it does not come up for us.

     

    not sure you have 6-9 in one school, then 9-12 in another nearby . Most middle schools are 6,7,8 and high school would be 9-12

     

    Some of the very small rural schools are k-12 and a few were ( are ? ) something like 6 ( or 7,8 ) - 12.

    Is that for all sports or just wrestling?

     

    probably for all sports where you have a K-12 or 8-12 grades under one roof. I doubt it come up often in other sports because it would be unlikely to see an eighth grader start varsity in a sport such as basketball or football.

    This is incorrect.   From TSSAA HANDBOOK Participation as an eighth grader shall not reduce the number of semesters a student is allowed to participate after enrolling in the ninth grade

    agree, I had two kids who wrestled as eighth graders and had 5 year varsity careers, not many public schools left where this is possible but there are a few.

    I think there is more than I hope- I believe he is eligible .

    I know at least 2 of the schools on the list have been down this road before and their AD's should be able to give you a yes or no on the subject. I would have confidence in the answer

     I may be wrong and I believe it  only applies to 2 or 3 schools in the state but if the student changed HIS residency to go to school, ie attended a boarding school, that would qualify as a change of residency and he would be eligible to participate. This is the way it was explained to me 10 or 12 years ago when I was considering a similar move.

    Believe me I know which way it was a heading lol I had a son on those teams as well as this one!! I wasn't really even talking about whether Greg could coach or not the point that I was trying to make is that he came in at a very good time as far as talent and as for the east as a whole is very weak!! It makes a huge difference when you have a lot of talent and when you don't and if you go back when Brent and Greg coached before at GHS they didn't make it as far as they have the last three years! I think for the most part Greg is a pretty good offensive play caller but as far as talent we have had some better athletes the last few years IMO!!

    I'll concede some of programs in the east had a drop off in recent years but I've thought many GB teams underperformed and it wasn't because they lacked talent. Greg wasn't in charge when he was coaching prior to 3 years ago. I think the present philosophy would have taken teams 2008-2012 and maybe couple of others deeper in the playoffs possibly all the way.

    I'm not taking nothing away from Greg but he did come in at a very good time as for as having the talent!! 

    Believe me when I tell you the direction the team was going prior to Greg and Kill was not a good one. Greenback has always had plenty of talent and even more toughness but not this level of coaching. In my NSHO starting in 2008 there were teams capable of not only getting to Cookeville but being competitive there too. But we never made it. 3 years ago GB was far from a plug and play team that just anybody could coach. The big guy letting it all hang out in the TV interview is the reason why GB has now joined fellow east TN schools a few miles north ( M-ville and Alcoa) in not only believing they can play for a title every year, but expecting to, then play accordingly .

    Coach Wilson was 37-5 his first three seasons and Coach Grider was 39-3 his first three seasons at SP. Coach Creasy was 39-2 in his first three seasons at Trousdale County. Coach Ryan is in great company. 

    Thanks. I thought it would be a short list, and very happy Ryan is in the conversation

    Shouldn't another team have gotten the spot?  A bye week is in no way fair to all of the other teams in the playoffs.  Not that it matters, though.  That entire part of the bracket was the weakest section and Greenback would have gotten to the game with South Pitt anyway.

    I'm with you. Brought it up a month ago. I would have found a 5th place team in one of the other regions and given them a chance for the gold and play into GB's region's 1st game. Cost GB a home game and just imagine the Cinderella story had the play in team pulled off the upset
