I'm trying to understand why Cloudland or Greenback would want to move up?

Greenback doesn't "want" to move up.TSSAA will call their hand by possibly MAKING them move to region 1.We will lose a ton of money and no one including myself is going to travel to Hancock,Unaka,Jellico and so forth to watch a game that's not competitive.If they were close then it wouldn't be that bad but on average 110 miles one way!!!The region 2 teams are practically next door other than Oneida but that is a great gate for either because they are a rival.If they go region 1 it will kill our fan base.

Do like Knox Catholic and complain about travel and money to tssaa. I couldnt believe a school with the money and resources that Catholic has would complain about having to travel an hour and a half to games. Us little small schools travel 2 hours or more for region games all the time and we dont have a 24th the money of a large private school in knoxville.

my contact says it likely will be jellico and greenback moving. hard to split the schools in roane and morgan up. he has been right before, but not sure about now.

I'm sure they are coaches on the phone as we type trying to swap regions.If Cloudland goes 2A which is what I am hearing also.Region 1 is up for grabs. I can see couple teams jump ship from region 2 to region 1 and GB stay right where they are.

i think you are right, that could be a possibility for sure. if no one moves he is pretty sure the other will be. i aslo heard region 1 teams could come to region 2 and a couple of teams might get shoved south.

I don't understand it either. If Cloudland didn't want move up in 2015 because of travel and lack of competition, why would they bow when the level of competition would be better?

Little the old staff did at Cloudland made sense...As you said in another thread, region 1 1A makes no sense....Cloudland program would starve and if GB got moved to region 1, they'd be nuts not to move up to 2A reg-1....Travel comes into play, but when your home games bring in absolutely no gate, wins don't matter as much.

But what I'm saying is that aside from '97-'01 when Unaka and Cloudland moved up to play in the old Watauga Conference, they have ALWAYS had to travel. Why would now make any difference.

Hard to play football without funding. Now if you could only play 4 region games ,you might be able to compensate in non region games. Its a TOUGH decision for Cloudland but for my part ,I hope they go 2a.

    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure. 
    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
    • It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover. 
    • That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.
