2A classification in 2008

I hope you are correct, then maybe GP will go 3A as well I thought that the rule is if a schools actual numbers before the multiplier was 1A then they could play passed 2A after the Multiplier.

 

No actually the rules states that the multiplier can't make a school jump more than one classification per re-classification period.....since USJ is already 2A they will make the 3A jump if they have the numbers.

Can you explain the 1.8 rule for private schools?

 

They have a habit of stretching the rules to the bending point on recruiting.

Well, I guess now we will have to cancel our plans of offering JCM a two year deal for our homecoming games. /biggrin.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":D" border="0" alt="biggrin.gif" />

 

 

Hey they put new bleachers in this year just so Bulldog fans would have a nice place to sit. /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

If Trousdale and Friendship move up that will open the doors a little more for young teams in that region like Monterey or Watertown. Hmmm... but that means less competition for South Pittsburg. I hope they don't move up. I like the playoffs with Region 3 and 4 battling it out the past couple of years. I think SP is barely 300 so they will never move up.

Sequatchie will likely be moving to 3A (675 right now). Chattanooga Christian might start out in 2A so they'd be replacing them. I'm guessing Polk, Tellico Plains and Meigs will continue to play 3A despite having 2A enrollment. Not sure where the Signal Mountain and East Brainerd schools in Hamilton County will start.

It's supposed to help compensate for the higher participation levels in privates.

Use the enrollment numbers on the classification cut off date. Multiply that by 1.8 and that resulting number is what is used in the total enrollment list.

 

Divide the total enrollment list by 5 for football, by 3 for basketball etc. and you have the new classes. /flower.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":flower:" border="0" alt="flower.gif" />
