Roane County reclassification

I saw the new classes for next year. I think the only change is Harriman going to A football, with everything else staying the same. Rockwood is for sure in AA next year. So where does this leave the "oldest rivalary in Tennessee?" I'm sure Rockwood and Harriman will always schedule each other, but will it lose a little bit of the flavor if it no longer changes the Region standings? I believe the 1997 season saw a 3 way tie between Sweetwater Rockwood and Harriman with the last game of the season being the RHS@HHS for 1st place. There won't ever be that intensity to it anymore. The will still be in A basketball/baseball. So the rivalary will not die, but I don't think it will burn quite as bright.

Oliver Springs will be single A in basketball and baseball also.

 

Really? Wow I didn't think that would happen to them. They'll probably have to redo district 4A then. That might put Rockwood in district 3A would make the most geographical sense. So 3A could be Rockwood, Midway, Greenback, Cosby and maybe CAK?(or are they in AA baseball/basketball) hmm I dont think that looks so good. Of course putting OS in district 3 when they have natural rivals of Wartburg and Coalfield in District 4 wouldnt make a lot of sense either.

The enrollment numbers for RHS and HHS have changed a lot since last year. Rockwood is well over 400 now and Harriman in in the low 300s. Rockwood has a very large frehmen class this year and they just keep getting larger. No idea why Harriman has lost so much enrollment.

 

In basketball, I think OS would be sent to District 3-A before Rockwood. Grace Academy in Knoxville will go District 3-A also which could put OS in 4A.

 

If TSSAA didnt want to split up an established district they would put OS into 3-A, but a district with OS and Cosby would be a very large district. The only reason I thought they might move Rockwood is its distance away from Oneida and the Morgan Co Schools compared to OS.

    • I would have to think that the firing of the 2 teachers is just the beginning of future moves.  If not, it is woefully short.  If the AC school board thinks that the damage is just limited to Clinton, they are sadly mistaken.  Any outsider would view the whole school system as suspect, and rightly so.
    • Yeah. AC brass walked in to the building at Clinton and suggested that the principal start changing grades.  Honesty, the notion that anybody at AC was involved is just idiocy.  The ones who are hurt most are the kids who weren't involved in the cheating, but still are being penalized by college admission decisions and scholarship consideration simply because they went to a school that was involved in such a scandal. 
    • I heard it was ugly.  Coach Harig and the Redskins demolished what is left of the Dragon Wagon.  At this point, it is not certain that Clinton will even be able to field a football team for 2024.  No way the coach keeps his job, transfers gone, nothing left.  Back to the stone ages for the Dragoons.  
    • Not even close, changing over 1000 grades?  Head coach changing grades to keep players on the field?  Not the same.  They will give Lieutenant Flip Flops the "Opportunity to resign"  right after graduation if not before.     Negative, the juvenile court judge blew the whistle.  Clinton admin, teachers and coaches started this fire.  Been going on for 4 years now according to Jones, one of the teachers that was fired.  This is truly pathetic.   The Dragon Wagon is #### up in the ditch down on highway 61 down there near The Spur.  Reap what you sew. 
    • What ever happened to the #93 rb that came in and did well last year when yalls RBs we’re going down?
