School 2016 MidCycle Current
Beech 1139 1385 1450
Gallatin 1508 1621  
Station Camp 1756 1470 1320
Hendersonville 1531 1510  

So if you're not familiar with the history of why the numbers for Station Camp have dropped this much in 2016 the rezoned a middle school that fed both SC and Beech to exclusively feed to Beech. At mid-cycle both schools turned in those numbers. Beech moved up in soccer because of the 20% change but not football since the number was so low. SC only changed by 16% (stayed in 6A). After midcycle number reported and before this school year began the county rezoned more students away from SC to Beech again. Next year beech will receive a huge class freshman class because of this (not to mention more students from general area growth). SC will likely grow as well due to development as will Gallatin. Lots of apartments going up in Gallatin and SC zones. Hendersonville zone already built out with houses and aging demographic which is why their number has flatlined. 

So, even though in 2020 a new sumner county high school (liberty hill) will open what is going to happen when they turn in their numbers next year is Beech and gallatin will turn in a 6A number, SC will turn in a 5A number... and Hendersonville will be hanging around the cut line. 

Liberty Creek

According to this, the school isn't opening till 2021, which works out better since that would be the beginning of the 4 year and 2 year cycles

It was more about travel than it was about Catholic for Fulton.  AC was going to be the only nearby 4A school, meaning they would end up either traveling to UET or Chattanooga for region games, like AC has been doing.  

Yeah, not sure about that one. The "travel" excuse is used too often. Lots of teams have to travel substantial distances for region games.

The new school isn’t going to open next year. If it did, Beech would certainly stay down. As it is, Beech should be right around that cutoff number.

Well, considering that Catholic was in 5A with the multiplier the travel reason makes more sense than that they were trying to escape Catholic.

Probably didn't realize that the "multiplier" was going to take place before deciding to make the jump to 5A. But they did and they've suffered.

That means you would have AC, Fulton, Gibbs in a region together. If Seymour, and carter drop down you could bring in Union County and have a knoxville area region.

I have no clue what's coming in, but Clinton was right on the bubble. I think just over 1100. They could possibly end up in 4A as well.

Agree to disagree.  The guys at Fulton know how to take a number and multiply it by 1.5.

Nolensville has over 1200 students now so they will definitely move to 5A.  Not sure how they stayed in 4A to begin with.  Spring Hill will more than likely move up to 5A with over 1200 kids.  Summit will move to 6A with close to 1600 kids.  Gallatin has close to 1600 kids so they may move to 5A.  Page surprisingly may drop to 4A with 1100 kids.  Fairview may be moving to 4A as well.  Just a few around this area.

Gallatin is already in 5A.  They will move to 6A.  They already have 6A numbers.  Station Camp has 5A numbers right now.  Which direction will they go?

Depends on the head count coming up. They could pull a “Lynn Brown” and take a bunch of kids on a field trip that day like he would do at Murvil. 

What is low cut off for 4A these days? 
Alcoa will be close to 700 sooner than later. 

The cutoff changes every classification cycle.  They want to divide the schools equally into 6 classes, so there's no way to give a static number.  Right now the low end for 4A starts somewhere around 700ish.

    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
    • What is the hold up here? I have not heard anything in weeks. Are they waiting for the right person or is something else going on?
    • Per usual, we'll be hard to beat in the regular season, I'm sure. It's the post season that I'm more worried about, specifically the coaches. Maybe they'll be able to make some adjustments that will keep the momentum in our favor. How's Grays recovery coming along?
    • Something don’t add up here a college coach is not going to turn away a good player they need just because they didn’t get along with their high school coach 
    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
