All Clarksville schools, except Montgomery Central, should have gone 6A. That would be 6 schools plus maybe add Dickson Co and have a good 7 team region.

Maryville is staying in 6A. Thought about 7A but Arkansas is too far.
Alabama is much closer.

Postpone the championship game as long as needed. Georgia and Texas both are playing state championship AFTER Christmas. Oh no, what about basketball? Don't think they are worried unless basketball cancels AGAIN.

I'll take a stab:
- Region 1 - Cherokee, Cocke Co, Boone, Crockett, Mo West, TN High, West Ridge
- Region 2 - West, Central, Halls, Sevier Co, Karns, Powell
- Region 3 - Oak Ridge, Clinton, Campbell Co, Heritage, Lenoir City
- Region 4 - Rhea Co, McMinn Co, Walker Valley, Ooltewah, Howard, White Co* (if they decide to play a region schedule)
- Region 5 - Franklin Co, Columbia, Nolensville, Spring Hill, Lincoln Co, Page
- Region 6 - Wilson Central, Hunters Lane, Station Camp, Hillsboro, Mt Juliet, Green Hill, Portland
- Region 7 - Clarksville NW, Clarksville NW, Henry Co, Kenwood, Springfield, Dyer Co
- Region 8 - Southwind, Memphis Central, Kingsbury, Overton, Brighton, Munford
Not sure if we'll see any schools move up, Anderson County would make a great fit in Region 3. Any of the other Knox 4A schools could fill in Regions 2 or 3.
EDIT - Not sure if Portland ends up in Region 6 or 7.
Think one of those C'ville NW was supposed to be NE. NE might be better off going 6A with CHS, WCHS, RHS and either the Sumner Co schools or DCHS and 2 WC schools.

How would the Alabama method work in Tennessee?
-
Wonder if NEHS will move up and join Clarksville HS, Rossview HS and West Creek HS in 6A?

CMCSS rules for 2020.

I’ve been told they are 6a size, but will be allowed to compete in 5a for the first two years. I suppose to allow them to bring programs up to speed. With that said, they may choose to schedule DB and Sci Hill those first two years as out of conference, for what would be a large gate.
West Ridge 2020 totals say less than 1500.

Love reading all of this back and forth. How about the Shelby County Public Schools, they don't get to play a single game all season. At least Metro gets to play some games.

Did I read this correctly, the Green Wave is 3-4? AND THEIR 3 WINS ARE A RESULT OF COVID-19 WINS?
Say it aint so Joe!

Would any one Enlighten me on why we have 6 classifications in public and 3 classifications in private?? Just taking a look at other states numbers, we really shouldn’t be over 5 classifications.. I think Knox county alone has about 14-17 high schools with the most student being around 2000. This has never made a lot of since in my opinion.
4 public classes and 2 private classes, 72-3 schools for each D-1 class and 22-23 schools for each D-2 class.

Every Region teams have a lease 5 Teams in a region . in past years you have 2 region in Memphis 9 teams and 8 got Automatic bid to the playoff over half of those did not have winning record
What a flip-flop of Regions 4 & 5. Why would you have Shelbyville and Coffee Co playing in Region 5 instead of Region 4?

So siegel and Oakland that are literally one mile from each other would be in different regions? I doubt it.
Didn't I say that I wasn't sure about locations? Flip the 2 or 3 most eastern located to Region 3 and leave the western schools to Region 4.
You can put all of the schools in Murfreesboro in Region 3 if you want.
How about having only 4 classes, 73+/- schools in each class. Then you have the same number of classes as you have for basketball, baseball, softball.
The problem with that is 4A would go from 1290 to 2800+. Do what Texas does, split 4A into large and small, 36 or so, in each class.
Or leave 73 and have bowl games where both schools and TSSAA get a piece of the gate as well as the sponsor of the bowl game. Pay ticket sellers/ticket takers off the top, officials off the top, each team gets 30% of the gate, TSSAA gets 25%, bowl sponsor gets 15%.
Tickets are $5 each for school age and above, no TSSAA/TACA passes allowed, no local teacher passes allowed, give each school 25 tickets to use at their discretion.
Just a thought!

Region 1 > D-B, Jeff Co, Mo East, Science Hill, Bearden (5)
Region 2 > Farragut, Hardin Valley, Bradley Co, Cleveland, Maryville, Wm. Blount (6)
Region 3 > Coffee Co, Cookeville, Shelbyville, Warren Co. Blackman, Oakland, Riverdale (7)
Region 4 > Antioch, Cane Ridge, LaVergne, Smyrna, Stewarts Creek, Siegel, Rockvale (7)
Region 5 > Beech, Gallatin, Hendersonville, Lebanon, McGavock (5)
Region 6 > Franklin, Independence, Ravenwood, Summitt, Centennial (5)
Region 7 > Brentwood, Overton, Dickson Co, Clarksville, Rossview, West Creek (6)
Region 8 > Arlington, Bartlett, Collierville, Cordorva, Germantown, Houston, Whitehaven, White Station (8)
49 schools > 11 in East Tennessee / 30 in Middle Tennessee / 8 in West Tennessee
You can move schools around in Regions 3 - 7, but I was trying to group them based on geography and I'm not certain some locations.
-
Why not re-classify and try to match up with as many surrounding states as possible? There has to be some teams from Ky, NC, SC, GA, AL, MS, Arkansas that would be willing to cross the border and play. Have no clue if its possible but worth looking into.

Texas plays their state championships in indoor facilities, so weather is not a problem, and even if it were the climate is still generally very nice through December in most of the state.
23 hours ago, MichaelMyers76 said:You will not have games the week of Dec18-19 because that is exam week for most if not all of the state. Most systems actually think that time is more important than sports. Remember the Board of Control is made up of principals from across the state whose jobs are tied to test scores.
HTV, don't they still play the games at Cowboys Stadium. I don't think they close the stadium unless snow or snow, but I could be wrong. I have been there on a cold day and the roof was not closed but that was a few years ago.
I'm hearing many schools are looking at ending in-person classes at Thanksgiving and taking finals on line. My guess is that Texas principals don't have their jobs tied to test scores OR THEY HAVE EXAMS AFTER CHRISTMAS.

As I have stated before, Georgia starts or last year started the exact same weekend we did and they ended 1 week later than Tennessee because they have 2 open dates. Not exactly sure but Texas plays their state championship game 2 weeks after Tennessee. They have more classes including 6 or 8 man football and I'm sure they still play basketball and wrestle in those two states.
Tennessee, without COVID-19 rearing its ugly head this year, could have played game 1 on September 4th and finished on December 17, 18, 19. Yes weather is cold in December and could snow, 'Boro in 2000 or so, but that is not an every year occurrence for snow during BCB weekend.

They will reclassify. If they went 3 more years counting this year then you would have schools like Nolensville with 1500 kids playing schools with 800 kids.
Don't you have that now in 6A?
-
Of the plans that I have read about and mentioned by howdoitknow, I think the 8 game season with a 16 team playoff is the best. You would probably have great games when you match 1 v 2 from the regions and those gates, barring bad weather, could potentially make up for blow out games that wouldn't be well attended.

Georgia starts when we do and finishes 1 week later than we do. Texas ends the same weekend as the proposal above. Doesn't hurt their basketball.
-
I started coaching in Savannah, Ga. , in 1973. We had 5 days of helmets only, 5 days of helmets & shoulder pads, then the 3rd week we put on full pads. We had no jamborees and no spring scrimmages with other schools. They changed that in 77 or 78 to allow spring scrimmages.
Currently Georgia starts the exact same date as we did in Tennessee and ended their State Championship series the week AFTER Tennessee ended their Blue Cross games...2 OPEN DATES! Didn't seem to bother basketball. J/S
-
When ever your system had graduation date and end of school, you should be good to go. I would like to think TSSAA would look into some days in June for full pad workouts, i.e., M-W-F's for 2-3 weeks, prior to dead period that would take the place of spring practice.

If I understand the TSSAA rule correctly, coaches can meet by Zoom when their school system would "normally" end.
TSSAA Draft Regions
in Class 5A & Class 6A

If this winds up being factual, then at least 1 team from 5A & 6A will be from Clarksville.
