AFO, In what capacity do you serve in the SE Elite organization. Are you the head person, if not who is?

Assistant coach, parent, and affiliate who has worked closely with those (coaches and admin) who have built the 14U and 15U programs. I am not the head person. There are several point persons for each age group.

As Mr. B mentioned and others, the reason why midstate can't compete with Memphis is because of work ethic. Today, if you go to a community center in Nashville, TN, you will not find a soul with a basketball working on their game. As far as combining, its a very good idea. IF you decide to make this plan work, the key component of doing this is EXPOSURE. YOMCA,Memphis Pump N' Run, and Midstate Ballerz all play in bigtime exposure tourneys. There are alot of kids who had the talent to play D-1, but didn't play in any exposure tourneys. That's why some of the states best players flock to travel teams because of endorsements and what a Nike, Reebok, Adidas team has to offer, which is free travel and many bigtime tourneys. Good luck because it can be a beautiful site. Midstate, Thunder, Stallions, doin a great job this summer. Memphis in general, keep reppin. You guys are havin great summers.

    • That was after the 2nd year of a 4 year cycle.  Since Covid we have been on a 2 year cycle.  So, there really isn't a "mid cycle" reclassification this time.   Idk if there's anything in place to address the issue of a school closing.  My guess is, nothing can be done.  This would be akin to the 1st year of a 4 year cycle, where a school has the 20% +/- but not allowed or even have the option to move up or down.
    • No reasonable lawyer would take up this case. I am not a lawyer, but I know school law in and out.  Similar situations just like this play out thousands of times each year across the country, even at the college level (i.e. Ole Miss)  The Plaintiff's never win...ever.  If I am wrong, please provide a legal precedent for me. I will be waiting.  https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/39431892/judge-drops-ole-miss-player-lawsuit-lane-kiffin  
    • Yes Justin Cruse was named head coach
    • It used to be, I think it still is, a change of 20% +/- gives reason to reclassify. Schools can choose to play up classifications but not down. Here is the mid cycle reclassification info on TSSAA.org When Memphis East changed from a regular public school to an "all-optional" school in 2017 the would've dropped to A but chose to stay in AAA in basketball (baseball, and softball) Penny was still coaching there and with the players they had they would've beaten A teams by 40 and slept walked to the championship. Other Memphis schools stayed in their classifications (mostly in basketball) until the next reclassification cycle. Of course this is the same time that a 4th class was added basketball.
