TSSAA needs less Divisions

The nine classes in TASAA has diluted the level of competition in all regions regardless of size. There is not a region that has a top to bottom tough teams that are playoff worthy. 
class 1A is the most evident. 
with fewer classes you would have more schools to fill regions with. Region 1A wouldn’t be begging for someone to come to their district. 
Now that all the private schools are in their own playoff. Has really brought to light that public schools are far more adept at recruiting players to their school. Than the privates ever were. 
 

schools are reporting other schools over this but the TSSAA is unwilling to investigate. They have become afraid of lawsuits. 
 

I don’t see them changing anything!!!

Excellent question. I do think there needs to be some restructuring. Personally, I think it would benefit several very small schools if TSSAA would either work with or absorb the MTAC 8 man league. There are several teams out there with dangerously low numbers who would benefit greatly from 8 man. It is growing nationally with the overall decrease in participation. Just a thought

This is a very good idea. 8-man is growing nationwide and would be a good option for many of the 1A schools. 
man 8-man class then 5 different 11-man classes would make a ton of sense.

I don’t necessarily have a problem with decreasing the number of classes. However, I think it’s mostly old guys like us on the boards that want fewer classes. I don’t think you’d find any players that want fewer classes. I don’t think you’d find many coaches that want fewer classes.
You could say the same thing about basketball - coaches have been campaigning for a fourth class for several years

After looking over a few of the brackets I notice some teams made it into the playoffs with terrible records. In the 1A bracket theirs a few with just a 2-8 record and in the 3A bracket theirs a team with 1-9 record. Why should a team with a losing record be in the playoffs? I can see a 4-6 team making in due to a tough schedule but teams with a 2-8 and 1-9 should not be playing in the playoffs. 

your tryin to take 100K out of chillys pocket in that first round.....

.....T$$AA annual meetin cant party at the Gulf if you take that away

Greenback will be slated for Region 1 again. They won't be able to get the TSSAA to approve their appeal this time around. :popcorneater:

If that happens SP will have it made every year...you want have us to deal with.  I heard on countless occasions after the last time, that we'd probably move up to 2A before going to Region 1.

    • Didn't misinterpret any thing. He was throwing our players under the bus saying they werent trying and then made a comment like Westview's jersey was in GC and Union City's head. My comment was that Westview has tons of talent especially with the transfers that have came in. Sure wasn't we choked out with the talent they had last year. I don't know if he is a South Gibson Fan or a Westview Fan but this is a message board and I for one am going to defend my school. 
    • 4&6?  Please break down AE's schedule and tell me how you get 6 losses.  I'm interested in hearing this..
    • You have sucked ever since he left, like UT and Fulmer
    • Correct me if I'm wrong Guru, but I interpreted what you were saying as some Westview opponents having a mental block to overcome because of the name on the uniform.  Much like Duke or Kentucky in Men's college hoops. I do think you're wrong about Gibson Co. being that way. They are Duke's North Carolina. No fear there! Think Pioneer misinterpreted what you were saying and lashed out with the "transfer rhetoric." Anyway back to the present, I believe the parity in the district will be good this year, much like the days when Obion Co. battled those two in district.
