Just a question, but why have All-State teams selected by division?  The athletes are either good enough to be on one combined All-State team or they are not.  Congratulations to some really good athletes but to have multiple All-State teams is just another way to “WATER DOWN” football in Tennessee and try to make everyone feel good.

Well, we do live in an "everybody gets a trophy" society.  

I believe there are still one or two all state teams that select irregardless of classification.

Do you really think other states do it anyway different?  If giving out All-State teams per division is "Watering it Down" then i guess GA,FL, Al,TX, etc have "water down" teams then too.  Heck Florida even has 1st, 2nd, and 3rd teams per Classification.

Here is the problem with your first comment, you made it sound like it’s ONLY Tennessee that does it that way and not every other state also. (Even powerhouse football states).

 

Here is a question for you, do you believe that there should be 1 All-American team in College Football?

I guess we should get rid of all the D3, D2, NAIA, and Championship Subdivision too and every Bowl game thats not the Final 4 :rolleyes:.  Heck lets get rid of everything thats not the NFL since those would be the best teams and then you can have your One True Champion each year with the Super Bowl
