Yes, I went back and re-read the post in its entirety. On another note, Anchor Down!

I'd like to see the tssaa take a look at moving schools unsuccessful for a period of time down a class, for a two year period. If they have two .500 or better regular seasons they go back up. With six classes they wouldn't have a huge enrollment advantage and they may still get wiped out but at least they might have a better chance to build up their programs. Cannon would be one of these teams.

Can't "play down." Sets a bad precedent. Can get out of district competition for 2 years though and not compete for state title. Some of the schools aren't competing anyway. Gives them a chance to learn to win again.

That is not going to happen.  If it did happen Cannon would need to schedule 10 Single A teams without a Real Middle School in the feeder system good luck on finding 10. For example this year they lose to RBS and even though they have a small student population the middle school football program is located in one central area not scattered over six K-8 schools. Name 10 Single A schools that they could stay on the field with. This want solve the problems they deal with but again TSSAA want let this happen. If you pull out for any sport do all sports at that school have to pull out for the same time period.

They'd be in a 2A region. The .500 record or better move up would be vs. other 2A teams. They could probably schedule DeKalb etc non region.

why would you want to schedule Dekalb or anyone else if over the last five years they had beaten you by a total score of 239-3? It is just a tough place for anyone to be coach, player or fan you got to feel for them because nothing seems to change for  the better. cannon would have a hard enough time playing Single A much less AA don't you think.

[Indian]

Yes they would. I said DeKalb because it's a nearby money game. Pick any other region game.

 

This isn't just about Cannon. Other teams might benefit like Coffee County and William Blount from 6A to 5A. Grundy would probably be near the cutoff for dropping to 2A.
