No different than Alcoa vs Scott County or Warren County vs Murfreesboro 6A teams. 50 percent enrollment/50 percent strength would be ideal if a method could be determined for implementing it.

That's what I was about to post. This is the best option if you are talking about those Blue Blood programs getting to play in AA if there are 3 classes.

Just move it back to A and AA.  If we have 3 classes and you think Ensworth or BA should move into AA to win a gold ball, you are part of the problem. 

 

 

I don't know what the solution is, but I have no problem with BA and Ensworth playing where their enrollment figures land. Under a A and AA system, they both would play in AA. If the split is at 400, you would have 31 in A and 18 in AA, going off the 2023-2025 enrollment #'s. With Boog's ND team walking a thin line with enrollment of 392.

Split it at 350 then. Create the most even #s possible in both divisions.  24 in one class, 25 in the other.

Goodpasture is the biggest in A and FRA is the smallest in AA.  

 

Thanks for providing the graphic, I think the most eye-opening stat of all is how Christian Brothers could do so little with so many boys. Good Lord.

Hopefully it will force these schools to step up their games.  I am not familiar with some of these schools 

[FBCoach1983]

The four big schools enrollment are not that large, T$$AA multiples their enrollment by 2 for classification purposes because they are all boy schools. 
 

Yes I would agree CBHS has been a let down the last few years. 
 

Why doesn’t the T$$AA just drop the AAA class down to 350 and now 16 teams are up? 
 

Does it really matter, it will be the Baylor/McCallie show until the T$$AA decides to do something about boarding schools.

Looking at that list, that is about the exact # of kids Baylor has in High School. If you add middle school #s in, it's more like 1080.  

What do you think TSSAA would decide for the two large boarding institutions? Does anyone ever see that happening?

Remove them from playing in the state association is one option. The other is make all their transfers sit out one calendar year before they are eligible. 
 

I believe T$$AA is the only or 1 of 2 state associations that allows boarding schools to participate in their association state playoffs.

By the same token why should everybody whine about BA and Ensworth playing where the rules tell them they are supposed to be? Neither has won a state championship in quite some time. Why should they stay up and let schools with smaller enrollments win every year? Just saying. People always want to look at it from one side. THEIR side. 

Spot on Bingolong….wouldn’t care at all to see them playin where the numbers say they should….but some of these new rule makers and supporters and their cheesy formulas have lost sight of that 

enrollment numbers are just what they are

The Irish are really at about 331…they been falsely bumping the numbers up a little at a time in hopes that they would move Irish up in the Dll-aaa district 

right about the time the Irish revamp and dominate again

Booger bein' right

Booger nose tradertwo got a fair view of this stuff and is not a overreactor on this stuff most of these boot posters want to make way complicated

everybody hates a alpha program that have a great plan with great people, committed to the hilt and has their Hillary together 

And some of these clowns are still

worried about baylors boardin students which they’ve had 100 years…and really haven’t won squat but a few swimming championships

booger will say as booger said it 50 or 30 x on T…McCallie ain’t bust these whiners front teeth out right now…nobody’s complain about boardin

Booger, you are lost. This is the DII thread. Last I check Oakland isn't in DII.

But, if you want to extend them an invite, I'd be happy to see that. In the 2021-22 season where Oakland went 15-0, they played LA and CPA and they squeaked by with a win in both contests.  Impressive considering those two played for the AA ball that year. Let them play the AAA East region gauntlet of a schedule  just sayin 

 

Last thing Booger needs is some hargiswantabe instructin Booger on Boogers wherebouts…

….Booger nose the organizational structure of this T threadin stuff backwards and innerds…and have so since way before some boot poster hijacked the coattails of that world famous columbo like sports writer from the TFP

….was usin Oakland as a point of Interest in the topic at hand

…and Booger actually thinks the T$$AA should make creasy team Play uP I. The blue blood division if the tssaa and it supportin ADs and principle are goin to penalize them Nashville Presbyterians and force them Up to lose for bein successful 

Booger just sayin
