TSSAA doesn’t pay football coaches. That is up to the school system 

Thanks for the clarification. I did a small amount of research after my post (which i should have done 1st) and i never should have made my statement. It really just comes down to support from their community.

With 2 teams from each district or region making the playoffs every year, there will absolutely be really good teams sitting at home coke playoff time just like there was back when. But if that’s the case, then that means most schools in the playoffs are good, meaning better/more meaningful football games. Plus, you find out who is really the best team when you have to beat 4 quality opponents in November to win it all

 

I’m not dumb enough to think that there will ever be a perfect system because there won’t be. But there are plenty of other options to improve high school football in Tennessee than what TSSAA has in place right now 

But the key is and always will be the money. They won’t go back from where they are. We all know that.

100%. That’s the only reason they have added classes over the years. Unfortunately they will probably add another before too long. T$$AA gonna get theirs

Red Boiling Springs is a disappointment.Better than what they have been but 4-3 & got beat by 2 garbage teams Jackson County & Midway & blown out by Gordonsville like every year.1978 was their best team.Kings Academy 0-7 with 5 losses by a touchdown or less.They can't ever seem to get over the hump & get over 30 players which would help.Then when they do get great players West & Webb poach them as if they don't have enough talent.Eagleton even without Seniors was predicted to be the Alcoa of 2A & instead are the Heritage of 2A.Heritage is another disappointment as is William Blount who scheduled cookie cutters to build wins but stink in region games.The biggest disappointment is these schools who can't,don't,won't finish weather impacted games.

It clouds up and we have PTSD. (I’m in no way minimalizing persons with PTSD. It’s descriptive at best)

go back to the z-plan with seeding quadrants 1-8, 8 autobids and 24 wildcards, made it more unpredictable
