IMO, 4A is deeper at the top than 5A, so I think we would be very competitive. I don’t know if we would make consistently as far in the playoffs as we have in 4, but I think we would be able to hold our own. 

That is about how I think it will go as well. Coach has the program in the right direction for sure. Surely the transition wouldn’t be as bumpy.

You think y’all would still compete for state in 5A?

I am not being a smart butt, but i would ask what you mean By compete?  
 

If you mean bring home two silver balls in three years. Probably not.  If you mean deep playoff runs and a trip to Cookeville 1 in 5 years I think the chances are better than average. Just an old man’s opinion.  
 

I hope we stay in the same Region with WH, Heritage, Portland, and Greenbrier if for no other reason than the crowds that all teams have at the games.  Passionate fans are part of making the game enjoyable for me.  When we were in the Clarksville Region before, other than the Clarksville game, we consistently had more fans than the home team.  Their band doesn’t even travel with them to away games and neither do their fans.

While I pull for Springfield every week (other than when they played Beech), I don’t think Springfield makes it to Cookeville 1 in 5 years in 5A. They dropped Beech because they couldn’t consistently compete with them and to make deep playoff runs in 5A you have to be able to compete with teams like Beech every year. 
 

Next year I believe Beech and Gallatin will both move up to 6A, Station Camp will move down to probably 5A, and I would assume Springfield will move into the region Beech is leaving. I believe Springfield now has more students than Station Camp, but I’m not certain. If that is the case Station Camp May end up taking Springfields place in that region. 
 

There will certainly be some shuffling going on in several regions.

This is one of the  obstacles I was talking about and why I think they delay the reclassifications.

 

The enrollment numbers will also be spewed in several counties

 

 
My wife teaches at a private school and they had several students enroll in public schools this semester due the parents not wanting to send their kids back to a traditional learning environment due to COVID.

 

We will see, but I just would be surprised if they don’t delay reclassification.

To my knowledge they haven’t delayed it at this point. I would be really surprised if they do, especially with the vote to change the other sports to four classes.

To your point of skewing numbers in public schools, why pay tuition to a private school for your child to virtually attend class when you can do that for free with public schools?  COVID may mess with a lot of areas

It was probably illusions of grandeur on my part to say we might make it 1 in 5 years to Cookeville.  
 

you’re right about playing Beech and us not competing.  I would get so wounded up at that game.  Beech has had our number.  I was thinking about this very thing earlier today, I can’t remember us EVER beating Beech

    • And that needs to go, Charter ,private ,magnet,city and any school that operates differently than pure public schools should be separated. What really needs to be done is address urban and rural. About all the usual powers have access to several kids from other schools period.
    • Sad deal. Hate it. So the coach that kicked her off is now fired?? 
    • Slightly off topic from a gender standpoint but just observed several boys volleyball games in the Knoxville area for a short spring season. The guys seemed to have a great time. There were several club players on each team but several football, basketball and tennis players involved. Knoxville Catholic, Maryville, Heritage, Knoxville West maybe William Blount had teams. Thanks to Coach Brent Carter from Knoxville Catholic/K2 for getting it together. I’m sure the coaches involved got several laughs trying to coach guys that really had no idea what they were talking about but pretty athletic and competitive. Catholic’s best basketball player told the coach he had played a lot of 2:3 and 1:3:1 but never a 3:3 LOL Maybe it will catch on with some more schools next year.
