If you have a losing record you are not good! Father Ryan competes well outside of their region but struggle to win any games within D2AAA. Things in the past that have caused major issues is only offering 50% of the financial aid that a student qualifies for and having no bus service for the kids. I see busses from MBA, Ensworth, Harpeth Hall, etc… running all over both East and North Nashville. If a school in D2AAA are not great recruiters they will not win. It’s truly a league of the haves and have nots.
Going back to three classes is not the answer.
This proposal makes sure no team has to compete with a school more than double their enrollment (with the exception of the very smallest schools in the state). I was shocked after watching the video because the proposal was actually logical.
AA will still be stout, but it won’t be significantly tougher than it is now. Based on 2020 enrollments, the only big school of any significance to girls basketball coming down to AA will be Dyersburg (they’re gonna be real good soon). You’ll add some small schools from the top end of A. Overall, the AA powerhouses right now will still be the powerhouses with the new proposal.
Of course, if they give Memphis three districts, there will probably be a bad girls team at the state tournament. Hopefully TSSAA recognizes that mistake when they draw the new districts and regions
