a lot of alternatives are possible. One is a one year contract like some college teams do, and even play some of those games at a neutral site, like maybe play a season opener between two high profile teams (like a maryville or Alcoa) against a Rutherford county team with the game at MTSU or TTU to accommodate a larger crowd. Perhaps another option is 2-year contracts that span three years, for example Vandy played Northwestern in football in 2010 in Nashville and 2012 in Chicago, but didn't play in 2011. We could bring that to high school. I love the suspense every other offseason of finding out who will be on the schedule and I wish we could recreate this every offseason. Only issue is how hard it would be to find games this way but who knows only playing a team once could make this task easier. It is something different coaches would have different options.
