CPA4Ever Posted August 4, 2023 Report Share Posted August 4, 2023 4 hours ago, theawesomebro said: true. plus it would be nice to split nashville between the actual east and west. lipscomb has away game in knoxville, chatt AND memphis which is difficult in any case but especially since we play 3 out of state teams every year. That's the price of wanting to be nationally ranked. Not a criticism, just the facts. The top ranked teams in the country don't worry about travel. At some point teams that want to be nationally ranked have to consider leaving state classiifcations and playing a schedule they design.

Nothing at all against the boarding schools as they are playing by the rules but it's near impossible to compete with them under the current rules that are in place. King's Academy don't count.They struggle each year but do better Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought since we were playing briarcrest that they were in our region which would mean we have memphis to knoxville for in region play but I was mistaken. we do have those games but our region is nashville, chatt and knoxville. my mistake.

The traditional inner city public schools are out of control and most of the time those kids are 3 and 4 years behind those kids graduating from the top tier private schools. You better watch out with posts like that. trynottosuck will come after you for mentioning anything other than Xs and Os. Of course, the same rules does not apply to him. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
