Unless the TSSAA attempts to reinvent the current districts, I think Goodpasture will just replace White House Heritage in District 10. Nashville Christian is already in that district, and it would make sense from a competitive and numbers standpoint. I also think they'll be in the western half of the bracket most years for the playoffs - they definitely would have been in the west this year and last year. So, I don't really think it will effect Trousdale all that much...

Well if it makes sense from a competitive & numbers stand point one thing is for sure. . . The TSSAA will have no part of it. Dumbest playoff plan in history, and they decided to keep it 4 more years.

I don't know how to say this nicely but you are way off on this one. You want a great example. CAK last year, a team that your team barely beat. Got beat by LaVergne, a 3-7 team in 6A. CAK and Grace were the best two teams in their divisions last year and could barely beat a bottom of the barrel 6a team. There is a major difference in 6a football, just ask CAK as they have had to go toe to toe with one the last two years.

 

No feelings hurt here. Your point is well taken. I wasn't speaking about GCA, in particular. I was speaking of the bottom of the bottom rung of 6A. A few 2A teams can compete with those teams. GCA has beaten 5A Anderson Co. the last 2 years. They are not 6A, and they are not as good as they were last year, but a W is a W. I think BB, FC and Oneida could beat a few 6A teams.

"Can't move more than one class" began before the six-class playoff system, different than the regular season classes if I'm not mistaken. They should have adjusted it when that system was started. By its wording it actually should have been happening the past four season including this one.

no the first time it was interpreted as A AA AAA...not sub classes. TSSSAAAA idiots.

 

If a rule has an exception...then its not really a rule. period..who says that... i say that (in my best robert d rayford voice)

Call me crazy but I think Goodpasture could very easily compete for the 2a title this season,One of the other private schools might beat um,but I doubt any of um would want to see them in their bracket. Goodpasture might pretty much have a monopoly in 2a. I've got nothing againt um,we just don't need um. Shoot we don't need any of them. Hopefully the voting will be done properly on Monday and every school will have a voice in it. Its time for change. We can't take 4 more years.

I agree...Goodpasture will be an instant contender in 2a. They have dealt with a lot of adversity this season. They will be a tough out if they make the playoffs.

    • Way late on this post, but I do believe that I want to at least weight in so to speak lol. I wrestled NAIA competed against some of the best wrestler over all a crossed the divisions and felt great about my college wrestling experience. I think people make the mistake in believe that wrestling some how gets easier as a sport at the smaller college divisions it doesn't the training is mostly the same. I have that on good authority from a coach who was a D1 all-American. it's more the commitment level of the competitors that is different. There is talented wrestlers that can go D1 at any level in the smaller division. sub in Sammy Shires for one he would have done fine on a DI team. He chose a work life ratio that suited him. It's not about talent it's commitment are you going to make training and studying the sport the center of your world cause that's what it takes: NO MATTER HOW TALATENTED BEFORE HAND YOU ARE.  If so then D1 is for you and striving for success at that level is for you like Mr. Palmer said it's what your willing to put in. Now coaches if you have a successful wrestler who fits that bill then by all means D1 is a great option they will see some success no matter how small, but if they are not that committed along with being talented and a killer and you know it then your doing them wrong.  You don't have to tell athletes that you don't think they are D1 tell them to keep their options open to take all their visits to consider all the divisions regardless of their goals. college recruiting visits have you most times wrestle against their current wrestlers coaches and athletes  will find out real quick it's not easy no matter where you go. That way when they make their decision it's a sound one that's based on well rounded experiences.     BobCorker, and oceansize42 I believe what you are thinking is correct but for different reasons. TN wrestler's have the talent... it's a commitment level change. TN wrestlers aren't used to having to put themselves through the level of commitment required and kills them on the D1 level.    WrestlingGod, I agree you should push kids to pursue their dreams, but not at the cost of common sense period... we have to much of that going around this country already. Dreams can turn to poison when these wrestler are not educated on what it truly takes. In TN  a kid who understands wrestling to a high level can be successful with small amounts of hard work. They think their definition of hard work is enough for D1 that is the mistake not the "talent/understanding".  Over-all though we do not celebrate NAIA,D2,D3, or Juco success in this state like other states do. GA/AL celebrates all it's college wrestlers success a crossed the  board no matter the division. Why? because it's hard... I have gone to all the divisions National championships let me tell you to be a all-American at any is impressive especially D2 or NAIA. those guys can scrap and not one of those AA's are an easy match. all of them were state placers or champs multiple times in their high school careers. does that at all sound easy to place at? TN does not give those guys enough credit or shout outs period. it's an over sight because of this D1 or it's less than meaningless   mentality on this site and in this state. GA/AL is better then us on the highest stage because they send guys to D2,NAIA,D3 ect. they come back understanding the sport better then their pervious coaches, and give back and that cycles to athletes readiness to go D1 with clearer understanding of what it takes to be competitive day 1 freshman year.             My post isn't to support one way or the other but to just consider that both sides have merit and that both work when the system in TN. by system I mean coaches are the better educated on preparing athletes for each level they want and should pursue.        
    • If you think McKenzie could've beat Riverside I have a bridge you might like to buy. 
    • Hate to hear Ricky is heading to the old folk's home!
    • By recruiting, I mean members of a coaching staff are talking to, meeting with, giving tours, to students, and their guardians, that are not zoned for their school.    there’s no way that many non Bearden kids just showed up all at once without being recruited. It can’t be a coincidence that all those kids also went through the middle school all star game your boss puts on every year. 
    • Not sure how I would put it as recruiting perhaps kids trying to better their career by going to a head coach and coaching staff with connections all over college football that gets them the opportunity to go play college football and be coached by a coach with a pretty good track record.
