I have read steamers on this thread like: we don't want to play where we're not wanted, the Chattanooga teams vote against us, Webb & GCA don't want to play Catholic. My guess it's because of the personalities and attidude of some of the Catholic supporters/fans.  Sounds to me like ya need to trade in your AD for a PR firm. By the way WTA it's mid morning, time to switch from Mimosas to Bloody Marys. Leave it to you to brung this thread down to your comfort zone.

Everyone in DII-AA should make the playoffs.  

Yes if It equaled out to 16 teams in the larger class if would work. Point was only 2 classes were needed. Teams a bit over 400 students shouldnt have that large an advantage on average over the smaller ones.

I personally think this catholic situation shows something I wish TN had tried.  Leave the privates and public’s together for regular season then split for playoffs.  Privates could play each other in non conference for seeding.  Public schools get a close travel game and good gate.  Most public schools wouldn’t mind playing a private school if it didn’t impact the post season.  The game vs private school wouldn’t count toward seeding for public schools.  Now the travel issue is solved.

I have been proposing that forever  .... makes too much sense  .... its a perfect solution ... play together in regular seasons for convenience and then split at playoffs  ... have heard if  TSSAA ever considered that or not but its the perfect solution to a long standing argument

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
