Only choice a school can have is if they want to play up like Fulton does. Fulton enrolment size (if I am not mistaken) is that of a 4a school, but they choose to play 5a. Exactly. Gibbs, Carter, and Seymour do the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STILLNUM1 Posted October 11, 2020 Report Share Posted October 11, 2020 21 hours ago, osunut2 said: I scrubbed the data TSSAA provided, and it looks like there are 300 D1 schools by my count. That would make OR #50, which puts them in 6A. Here are some interesting notes, if that number is correct: Other teams moving up to 6A - Gallatin, Beech, Mo East, West Creek, Summit, Shelbyville, Clarksville Potential Region 1-6A - DB, Science Hill, Jeff Co, Mo East, Bearden, Farragut, HVA Potential Region 2-6A - Cleveland, Maryville, William Blount, Bradley, OR To even the numbers up, I wouldn't be surprised if Farragut was moved to Region 2 Teams moving down to 5A - Mo West, McMinn, Heritage, Ooltewah, Wilson Central, Station Camp, Mt. Juliet, Memphis Central Teams moving up to 5A - Tullahoma, AC, Portland, White Co, Spring Hill, West Ridge (new school), Springfield, Nolensville, Howard Other changes of interest - South Doyle (down to 4A), Soddy Daisy (down to 4A), Union Co (down to 3A) Could see Fulton, Carter, Gibbs, and Seymour all opt to play 4A ball, now that SD's enrollment has dropped. Tough to predict 5A (and 4A) regions in the Knox area until those schools decide whether to play up or not. How will the new school up around Tri cities be factored in.Suppose to be a really big school.I wish they would cut it back to 4 or 5 classes with the biggest class being any school over so many kids.Only way to keep from schools with 1,000 more students in same class as the smaller 6a schools Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am hoping they are 6A to give Dobyns-Bennett 1 other large school in the Tri-Cities area to play and would be an instant rivalry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cactus Jack Posted October 13, 2020 Report Share Posted October 13, 2020 West Ridge if I remember it right on the enrollment numbers was only around 1200, putting them in the 5A bracket, yet they will probably play DB as a local rivalry, From sources up in Kingsport, that will force DB to drop either Alcoa or Oak Ridge in favor of West Ridge.
