It was like that until 1985. There was a time when the playoffs first started that undefeated teams didn't even make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know they wouldn't go back to that but I honestly wouldn't hate to see it being the top 2 teams in a region. Round one: 16 Teams Round two: 8 Teams Round three: 4 Teams Round 4: Championship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top two teams out of each district go to the playoffs. Second round of playoffs would also be for region championships. The T$$AA would still get 5 rounds of playoffs, but you would get much better first round match ups . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallatin is playing 5A level with 6A numbers. Hendersonville is teetering on the 5/6A cutoff if it stays the same. I can see Summit moving up to 6A after next year along with Beech if rezoning takes place in Sumner County. I would think that Gallatin, Hendersonville & Station Camp would want to stay together if possible. A few Memphis schools are playing up in class to keep traditional districts in tact & to cut down in travel. Not sure if they move when TSSAA reclassifies. Its gonna get tricky with the classifications in 6A. Rutherford County is likely gonna have 8 schools in 6A. I don't know if they would put 8 in a region. And even if they did then you have Coffee County, Warren County and Cookeville all needing a new region out in no mans land. Wilson County is gonna have 3 and another opening in 2020. Sumner County is gonna have likely Gallatin, Beech and Hendersonville in 6A. With another school opening in 2020. Station Camp would be going down I doubt they opt to play up just to keep playing teams that will whip them regularly. So the same thing with them usually putting Wilson Co. and Sumner Co. together they would be potentially looking at 8-9 teams in that region.

ChineseFlu Posted November 10, 2019 Report Share Posted November 10, 2019 T$$AA has 4 years between reclassification. They should have a committee sit up to look and what is really best for the schools. They should really meet with coaches and AD's and get their input. I'm not sure it should necessarily always be based on enrollment, but also consider proximity, level of competitiveness and rivalry's or something in that ball park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haweanbula Posted November 11, 2019 Report Share Posted November 11, 2019 I believe in california they have started initially on enrollment but once they divide everyone up they look at competitiveness. If a school is really struggling they move them down, but if they are destroying everybody in on their level consistently then they get bumped up a division.

We had 2a number for the past few years. This year we got 175 extra students that wasn't counted for which gave us 3a numbers. Whites creek is a 2a school and playing in 3a.
