Titans high school football game of the week potential. Great opportunity for two small teams to get attention.

So you think they will both be in 2a?

Wayne County scrimmage today?

Would Dresden at ~360-365, not fall with the enrollment numbers for 1a?

So we all know that if they was to split the teams & put the bottom 32 in terms of enrollment into 1 division and made it the new 1A that we would have some serious travel problems or would we??... so I did some work on the schools with the smallest enrollments *(That Play Football) *. This way everyone can get an idea of just what the Region's or District's would look like and therefore seeing how much travel teams would have to do.

 

Currently, 57 teams participate in 1A Football. All having enrollments under 400 students. If you take out the Privates, aside from Columbia Academy, who is attempting to stay in 1A and not be moved to DII then that number drops to 51 teams.

 

So if you take the bottom 32 teams it would leave just 19 other schools. I guess you could just lump the last 19 schools into 2A or you could split that 51 # into 2. Either way, I will list the theory on just keeping the bottom 32 schools in one group for now so we can see who's left.

 

 

Region 1:

Unaka - 290

Hancock County - 286

Cloudland - 193

Oakdale - 188

 

Region 2:

Midway - 289

Greenback - 209

Coalfield - 182

Sunbright - 173

 

Region 3:

Sale Creek - 306

Copper Basin - 227

Lookout Valley - 204

South Pittsburg - 245

 

Region 4:

Fayetteville - 318

Cornersville - 293

Huntland - 214

Moore County - 197

 

Region 5:

Monterey - 339

Gordonsville - 318

Clay County - 264

Pickett County - 248

Red Boiling Springs - 200

 

Region 6:

Wayne County - 319

McEwen - 308

Collinwood - 278

Hollow Rock-Bruceton - 209

 

Region 7:

West Carroll - 295

Humboldt - 263

South Fulton - 245

Lake County - 243

Greenfield - 210

Gleason - 161

 

Region 8:

Middle College - 233

 

 

That is a list of the schools with the 32 smallest enrollments that play football & are in 1A currently, aside from Privates. All grouped in what Region they currently compete in for this season.

 

 

Almost crazy how much equal each Region is except for the Memphis teams in Region 8, which actually has just 4 total teams in it this season and needs to be fixed and perhaps put into another Region all together. Could this type of configuration work? Honestly I think so and it's a whole lot less travel than I was expecting! This could work, IMO.

**List does not include the 3 Memphis schools that have closed or do not participate in Football now (Northside, Carver, Dubois)**

Thanks, olddevil.

Haha.. Good luck to the orange Bulldogs from clay country.

Two different teams. I think Dresden has a pretty good running back and overall skill. The line needs some development, so hopefully the new coach can take them to the next level. It's up to the individual players on how far they will go.

Idk if Westview wants to play HC again. If milan plays Mckenzie then that's what it looks like. Dresden is good, but no way are they playing a 5a team.

Unless your source is HC QB club president, you prob will not know the match up until Monday night, when they release it. I can see Dresden playing Murray.

Don't know about the matchups,if they have even been decided yet but the teams are:

 

Henry County

McKenzie

West Carrol

Milan

Martin Westview

Dresden

Murray

Stewart County

    GO BIG RED

Good looking lineup. I would (####)ume that HC will play Milan, SC v. WC, Westview v. Mckenzie, and Dresden v. Murray (The Hodge Bowl). Just a guess..

Does anyone know anything about the jamboree yet? Not the date, but teams playing in it, etc.?

So it comes out tomorrow?

Looking forward to seeing Dresden coming to henry county for the jamboree. Hope the fans have a great experience

Always do at the U. of HC..haha

Rumor is Levi Estes new def. cord. at Dresden. Anyone know him?

Great kid, a little young, but the head coach had no other options. Everyone else turned it down, including one of the coaches on the current staff. He will be fine.

I guess it all depends on the baseball position. If not I heard they could promote within..

Hopefully they can get two guys. One football only, one both.

True. He can't do it all. Hopefully they can find some one that is good.

I would say the school will hire someone to coach baseball and help with football. I think there's 3 teaching positions open as of now.

Makes sense.

No one else could do it?

As for the DC, who knows. They could promote within or hire someone else. Does anyone know the timeline for naming this coach?

Great coach. He will be an asset for Westview.

How do they decide the west tn allstar game? Do the coaches vote or media?

UC 49 DRESDEN 14

Hahahaha.. April FOOL.

For sure.
