Macnarry Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 I believe that a private-public split will be bad for high school football in the state. The private schools would begin their own association and make their own rules. The result would then be chaos with the players being pawns in a battle to get them to play at their school. The idea of winning a state championship is the goal of every team, but already has been watered down with several classifications. It is like summer ball when every kid gets a trophy for just being on the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDave1967 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 It may-could be bad but it looks like it's only a matter of time until it happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QSouth89 Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 If the privates do form their own association when would the timeline be for starting an association? Next year or when the new cycle starts? I have a hard time believing the privates would accommodate the TSSAA and stay till the full split began. I know there has been talk on CoachT but is there a plan in place by the privates? Have they been holding meetings to discuss an association? have rules, and guidelines been pre-drafted? This is better then Law And Order Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DirectorP Posted July 9, 2015 Report Share Posted July 9, 2015 Public schools are putting the cart before the horse. On average most (not all) do not support athletics at their prospective schools. The only money they(public schools) generate is when they play Private schools. I believe this is what needs to happen to shut up those that are crying for the split. and in 2 years they start there own conference and bring in other states as well, Georgia, Alabama and Kentucky are planning the same split. TSSAA may want the split. But, deep down inside. They are not ready for what will happen next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you have never attended a Acloa-Maryville, blackman-Oakland, Franklin-Breantwood, Trousdale-Macon, Or Giles-Marshall game have you? Lots of public schools do well on raising money, big gates and large concession sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booger thinkin Indianb said something like that first.......that being said........how many Smith County, McMinn County, Kingston, Maplewood, and even Heritage (who is next door) people you think traveled to Alcoa last season to fill the visitor stands....even Johnson County travelin down in the 1st round?......all them together would not match the Maryville crowd....those PUBS and those matchups are exceptions.....
