LazIndexTN Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 I still feel that there needs to be a flex line between divisions. This would allow for more compact regions and less drive time for regional games. I'll take a look at it this weekend and come up with an alignment strategy based on Ambassador's figures here. The top or bottom 10 to 12 schools should be able to move up or down to make the regions more manageable and cost effective. This will be fun, good work Bass!

LazIndexTN Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Are they still only able to move up 1 classification at most if they choose? If so, Memphis East would be in 3A at best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sundevil Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Funny that DI is based on equal distribution and DII is base on enrollments. Doesn't make a lot of sense. Looks like the rural areas will still have a lot of travel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 The lower classes will have the lowest numbers therefore Adamsville and Waverly will be in 2A. Also the reason that cities like Memphis have schools that are showing lower numbers are due to fact that the schools have been split. Many charter schools have been started due to the number of failing schools in these areas. The charter schools still coop with the previous school that the students attended. Pearl Cohn coops with MLK but only counts 643. Mlk has 961 students that are not counted on Pearl Cohns enrollment. Memphis East has 491 but coops with Soulsvlle Charter that has 335 students. In most of these cases most schools would move up. Go to http://portal.tssaa.org/common/directory/coop.cfm to see all approved coops and the schools involved and you will be shocked.

TheAmbassador Posted October 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 According to that list on the TSSAA, Freedom Prep coops with Memphis Mitchell. If this is the case then they will need to be dropped off the 1A list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southtowner Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Back to the classification question. I have looked at several scenarios and don't see any where Trousdale County is back in 1A. Do you see anything that I might be missing? I see 49-50 teams in each class. I don't see any way they stay 1A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southtowner Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 I have mine broken down in a split of 99 teams per A, AA, AAA. Class A has 50 in 1A and 49 in 2A. Class AA has 50 in 3A and 49 in 4A. Class AAA has 50 in 5A and 49 in 6A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAmbassador Posted October 14, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 I have mine broken down in a split of 99 teams per A, AA, AAA. Class A has 50 in 1A and 49 in 2A. Class AA has 50 in 3A and 49 in 4A. Class AAA has 50 in 5A and 49 in 6A. You've got some good intel? Could they go 49 on the odd divisions and 50 on the even?

Southtowner Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 You've got some good intel? Could they go 49 on the odd divisions and 50 on the even? You're the one that said I was a genius. Remember? lol It's just my take on the breakdown. In the past if they had uneven numbers the smaller class (1A) got the extra team so to speak over 2A. They could break them down 50,50,50,49,49,49. Or 49,49,49,50,50,50. In my scenario they can break the 6 classes down by 3 which is 99 teams per class (A,AA,AAA) Then divide those and give the extra team to the smaller class.

mrbigster Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 Huntington is officially my favorite to win 1A. Union City in 2A should be interesting I think you're wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indian Posted October 14, 2016 Report Share Posted October 14, 2016 What do you mean declined? Are you saying they are false numbers? Give us some of the teams that are declined. Decreased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
