Huntingdon is getting turf another upgrade to their very nice facilities

I think it is great for Huntingdon to get their turf field. I don't know if Dyer County will get one, their field is usually in great shape. However, with Huntingdon getting theirs, I do believe you will start to see the dominoes start to fall. I could honestly see Milan, Haywood, Lexington, Hardin County, Adamsville, and Peabody get a turf field in the next 2-3 years. North Side, Liberty, and South Side desperately could use turf fields and even more, but the school system and the county does not support athletics in Jackson, which is sad.

However, if I took a guess on who would be the next school to get turf, USJ has my vote.

USJ would be my first guess as well. I heard Milan wants to start upgrades on the actual stadium rather than the field itself

    • That was after the 2nd year of a 4 year cycle.  Since Covid we have been on a 2 year cycle.  So, there really isn't a "mid cycle" reclassification this time.   Idk if there's anything in place to address the issue of a school closing.  My guess is, nothing can be done.  This would be akin to the 1st year of a 4 year cycle, where a school has the 20% +/- but not allowed or even have the option to move up or down.
    • No reasonable lawyer would take up this case. I am not a lawyer, but I know school law in and out.  Similar situations just like this play out thousands of times each year across the country, even at the college level (i.e. Ole Miss)  The Plaintiff's never win...ever.  If I am wrong, please provide a legal precedent for me. I will be waiting.  https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/39431892/judge-drops-ole-miss-player-lawsuit-lane-kiffin  
    • Yes Justin Cruse was named head coach
    • It used to be, I think it still is, a change of 20% +/- gives reason to reclassify. Schools can choose to play up classifications but not down. Here is the mid cycle reclassification info on TSSAA.org When Memphis East changed from a regular public school to an "all-optional" school in 2017 the would've dropped to A but chose to stay in AAA in basketball (baseball, and softball) Penny was still coaching there and with the players they had they would've beaten A teams by 40 and slept walked to the championship. Other Memphis schools stayed in their classifications (mostly in basketball) until the next reclassification cycle. Of course this is the same time that a 4th class was added basketball.
