TSSAA is the only game in town.  The Division II schools need to see the writing on the wall and pull out of the TSSAA sh#$ show and start their own organization.  Especially since the TSSAA is really biased against private schools.

who do you think turned LA in?  They ain't going no where.

That is the part this schmuck doesn't get. People from other privates turned them in.

It was a school from Memphis for the QB and a disgruntled former parent for the text messages

Trent Diler my arse, this is ALL on this year's coaching and athletic department.  No one else.  To be transparent, most winning programs have skeletons in their closet and/or walk a fine line hoping they haven't violated the vague TSSAA guidelines.  

Dilfer created the toxic culture that wrecked the bus at Lipscomb. Totally on him.

This is absolutely correct.  He created a monster because of his national connections with coaches and kids everywhere due too ESPN and his Elite 11 camps he continued to run at Lipscomb. Everyone knew and he knew it couldn’t be duplicated. He made his movie moved LA into AAA and got out of Dodge  before the axe fell.  When I saw them last year here in the Blue Cross Bowl it looked like a circus.

As expected, LA is done for 2023-24, hopefully they can salvage the 2024-25 season and clean house.  They will know more at the 11/16 TSSAA meeting laying out compliance improvements.  

The state championship was played last Friday - LA beat McCallie.

 

You have forgotten they lost to Baylor and MBA. Baylor would have smoked them again. The game they played shouldn’t have been as close it was.

Are they going to make their own gold ball and give out rings for the phantom championship?

Since the 21 and 22 titles were actually bought as well it would make sense. Lol

The text messages from the Lipscomb OC that are in question were alleged to have been sent to a kid that is now at Ensworth.   I am not saying Ensworth turned Lipscomb into the TSSAA, but it would have been convenient for Ensworth to do so.
