Re-Alignment of Class A, AA, AAA?

[UCSportsFan]

It was brought to my attention that in 2005 there would be a revamping of sorts of the schools, i was just curious if anyone knew anything about this, i was told that in two years Jackson County would become Single A instead of AA so if anyone has any info on this please let me know.

There has been a lot of talk concerning the public vs private schools. One line of thinking is that the private schools should be totally taken out of the mix and have their own state tournaments for all private schools. If this occurs then the remaining public schools would need to be re-aligned based on enrollment into class AAA, AA and A. Some schools would be effected by this action and change classification.

I hope this clears the mud.

What schools would be chacnged, if anyone knows...or who would be close to changing?

Of couse the possibility of this happening is all speculation... but it makes for fun conversation. If you were to take out all of the private school... Divide the public schools into thirds based on enrollment.

2005 would be the year (if my calculations are correct) that new enrollment figures are used (based on the first 20 days of 2004)

 

Therefore 2005 could possible be a realignment year based on those new numbers

Since most of the private schools that currently play in Division I are in Class A (with a few in AA), more schools would move down than up in order to balance out the divisions.

The private schools are all going into their own divisiton. This is no longer speculation. It really doesn't matter if some AA schools drop to A because they will all be competing with the same rules...unlike now with the privates able to recruit from everywhere...like Temple...Georgia State Champs!

No chance of a Kentucky high school tournament ever occuring in Tennessee is there?

 

The region winners and runners up (16 teams total) all over Kentucky compete in a winner take all state championship.

 

(No Classifications)

That is the way it was back in the good old days. Classification began about 1972 if I am not mistaken. I wish it would go back to that. I think Kentucky is one of the last states remaining that has only one state tourney.

Did the TSSAA vote take place on this? I think not. I believe all they've done so far is to poll the member schools, then table the motion for further study.
