If it stays at 8 regions, I would like to see Tullahoma follow Spring Hill and Nolensville and move up to 5A Region 5 and Page drop down to 4A. Tullahoma currently plays 4 of the teams in this region anyway. 

Page can't drop, but Tullahoma could elect to play up.

Page can’t drop to 4A.

DId they say they're staying with 8 regions?  

No, but with the lost revenue from covid this year, I look for them to keep as many games in the pipeline as possible these next few years.

I do think Tullahoma new 4A Region is going to be really spread out

I'll take a stab:

• Region 1 - Cherokee, Cocke Co, Boone, Crockett, Mo West, TN High, West Ridge
• Region 2 - West, Central, Halls, Sevier Co, Karns, Powell
• Region 3 - Oak Ridge, Clinton, Campbell Co, Heritage, Lenoir City
• Region 4 - Rhea Co, McMinn Co, Walker Valley, Ooltewah, Howard, White Co* (if they decide to play a region schedule)
• Region 5 - Franklin Co, Columbia, Nolensville, Spring Hill, Lincoln Co, Page
• Region 6 - Wilson Central, Hunters Lane, Station Camp, Hillsboro, Mt Juliet, Green Hill, Portland
• Region 7 - Clarksville NW, Clarksville NW, Henry Co, Kenwood, Springfield, Dyer Co
• Region 8 - Southwind, Memphis Central, Kingsbury, Overton, Brighton, Munford

 

Those eastern regions provide enough flexibility that it doesn't make a ton of sense to have region 1 with 7 and 3 with 5. There are various options, but I think I'd do the below, which would minimize teams having to cross Knoxville east-west on Friday evenings.

• Region 1 - Cherokee, Boone, Crockett, Mo West, TN High, West Ridge
• Region 2 - Cocke Co, Sevier Co, Heritage, West, Central, Halls
• Region 3 - Campbell Co, Clinton, Oak Ridge, Powell, Karns, Lenoir City

That doesn't keep the Knoxville schools all together, but it doesn't give any of them bad drives. Cocke County is the only school that'd have a really big change from your list, but the drives are actually shorter for them on the whole.

With 18 5A teams from here to Bristol.  It would make sense to have 6 teams each in regions 1-3.  
But T$$AA isn't known for making sense and doing what is logical.  My bet is that we will have 3 regions with 7, 5, and 6 teams.

This doesn't look bad!

They are but I was actually complimenting you guys. But since you want to be like that I can be too. Who have yall played??? I see no Beech, Haywood, Brentwood on yalls schedule. And yall didnt even play DC. Get out of here with that. I hope you show up here after the game, hope we dont have to call in special forces to find you....

I read wrong... but there's not a whole lot of love for Clarksville teams I see. I'm new to the rivalry and bring in fresh eyes.  HC might have played a harder scheduled but the only team they beat was DC and the rest put it to them.

We beat Haywood who is really good team.

By the way jump back on the Henry County thread. This is another thread.

Springfield and Henry County being back in the same region would be awesome. Springfield Program has come a long way since they last met.
