TheAmbassador Posted November 11, 2016 Report Share Posted November 11, 2016 What's really weird is you have some schools in the east and west in different sports. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southtowner Posted November 11, 2016 Report Share Posted November 11, 2016 Or Oakdale could've just stayed! This is weird... Oakdale was in region 2 last go around and swapped out with Greenback in region 1 as I recall. Same could happen. As far as I know these are the proposed regions. If you wanna move you gotta file an appeal. TSSAA can grant the appeal or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFD709SHREK Posted November 11, 2016 Report Share Posted November 11, 2016 First of all Oakdale requested to go so they would make the playoffs every year. I guess Coalfield gets a by next year in the first round. This is a sad situation for east Tn. there should be 5 and 6 teams in these 2 regions. I'm sorry but Oakdale should have been made to stay in region 1 and Oliver Springs should be put there also since they are closer than Greenback.

tradertwo Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 I feel bad for Middleton. Middleton in 1A and Adamsville in 2A are the odd man out...both will have long drives EVERY week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazIndexTN Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 This is an atrocity. Even these things out, they've already messed up travel by setting such a hard line on enrollment figures and now made it worse by messing with competitive spirit. Having regions with 4 or 5 teams is so lame. Ibaka automatically makes the playoffs now??? What are they thinking? Region 2 champ gets a bye in the first round for the next 4 years I guess.

rtl112 Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 Why don't they just move Jellico and Oz to region 1 then both region 1 and 2 have 6 teams a piece. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TennesseeVol Posted November 12, 2016 Report Share Posted November 12, 2016 Feel bad for the Middleton Tigers. A team that's not a very good program, traveling at least an hour 30 to play Huntingdon and Bruceton, 2 hours to play McEwen I believe, maybe longer. An hour and 15-30 minutes to play Perry County and at least an hour drive to play Wayne County. I know they get unlucky geographically reasons, but they probably need to be in Region 8-1A. To make things worse, Middleton does not have a very good fan base, and probably lacks community support and funding for their football team. They got robbed a little bit. Would've been better off co-oping with Bolivar in football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
