The Tiger's tougher competition through out the year will be the difference in this one.  Cornersville bring's home the silver again like last year. Whitwell is just in another class, and so many of us have been trying to tell so many people on here that this year. I say Whitwell by 14. Congrats to both team's but the actual 1a championship IMO was played this last Friday when Whitwell took down mighty Greenback.  Whitwell high School. 2018 1A state champions!!!!!

I can’t say a class of their own. I still think 1A has 5-6 teams that were very very close.

In my opinion, which doesn't mean a whole lot, this will be a hard nosed game. If Cornersville can grind it out for four quarters on offense with long, sustained drives, then that is their best chance of taking this game. The more opportunities Whitwell has to get those backs going, the tougher its going to be for Cornersville's defense to contain them. Better put it away though, if Whitwell has the ball down 6 with 30 seconds left in the game, I'm putting my money on the Tigers.

I know both of these Towns and Schools well. Love that the two are meeting up in this game. My late Father Coached the Whitwell Tigers in the early 60s, then we moved to Lewis Co. his name was Wilson West. Still to this day remember living right by the football field at the old school. Glad to see that the Tigers have such a great team, Cornersville also has a great team. This may very well be the best game of all of them, best of luck to both teams.

    • 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.
