Here is the way I see the Class AA regions Eastern portion of the state (Regions 1-3).

 

Region 1

North Greene

Cumberland Gap

South Greene

Chuckey-Doak

Happy Valley

Gatlinburg-Pittman

West Greene

 

Region 2

Rockwood

Wartburg

Oliver Springs

CAK

Sweetwater

Alcoa

Loudon

 

Region 3

Bledsoe County

Sequatchie County

Marion County

Tyner

Boyd-Buchanan

 

*I could see Sweetwater being put in region 3 since they are the closest team to that region. That would give Region 2&3 each six teams.

Brian... there has to be at least seven teams in every region for it to balance out! I have heard that they will try to do this! This means they will have to move some teams around in region two to make it work. Region three will have seven it and makes more sense for them to play the teams just south of knox county than to drive all the way up to middle TN!

Don't think so ELA they cannot balance the Regions because of Region 8.

 

Region 8

 

George Washington Carver High School

Westview High School

B. T. Washington High School

Memphis South Side High School

Westwood High School

Oakhaven High School

Treadwell High School

Westside High School

 

8 teams in 1 region right there.

 

Look for Regions numbering from 6 to 9 members due to excessive travel. And that will be a consideration, don't think so then check fuel prices!

I've asked TSSAA about this and they told me that although they don't want any small regions (5-6 teams) they would rather have these they penalizing teams and shipping them to other regions to even things out.

If this is the case then the Class AA teams in the middle portion of the state will have big regions.

The only good thing about the Z-plan is that it would have eliminated these travel debates.

I think Rockwood is as close or closer than Sweetwater? :angry: I would like to see Rockwood & Oliver Springs in reg. 3

Here is another issue that has to be considered. Regions with an even number of teams such as 6,8 or 10 teams make scheduling easier. If a region has an odd number of teams one team has no region opponet for that given week. They then must search far and wide to find an opponet or play a week 0 game to get 10 games. For this reason I believe t$$aa will try to 6, 8, 10 team regions. Yes ,I know it can't always be done.

 

Also t$$aa has used natural boundaries to regionalize teams. Such as East or West of the Tn. river or they have used north/south lines. Look at the current region ELA is in: Stewart Co., Houston Co., westmoreland, east robertson , lipscomb, station camp and goodpasture. There is more than 100 miles East to West in this region. How did Harpeth not make it into this region? The T$$aa answer was that Harpeth fell to the south of the line drawn. If you can read a map you know that this makes no sense. Harpeth and waverly for that matter are both north of Interstate 40.

Not disagreeing with your argument but Westview High School is in Martin. Memphis has Westside & Westwood but not Westview.

    • The sandbagging begins… y’all made sure LV won’t be a problem by snagging 2 of their better players. 
    • Partin left? I’ll be.
    • And yes, in 2010 Clary/Scott Monger got into it with a R’dale fan. Well, mostly Monger lol. I think the fan took a swing at him. It’s funny as all get out listening to it on the replay. Scott told the guy to sit his a** down. Lol. That wasn’t the only time SM got into it with an opposing team. Seems like he got into it with someone at William Blount one year. He was an OG lol
    • Nope, they knew lol. He was just one tough hombre. Played right up to near the end of the Powell game like that and we almost won. I think they beat us, 21-17. Was a valiant effort on his part though.
    • No, that was in 2010. We played them in the quarterfinals in ‘11 the year I’m talking about, but we got hammered 35-14. 2010 was a fun year though. Played Maryville in the semis and gave them a really tough game for the majority of that game, but their depth eventually wore OR down, 38-21. Bradley had a few awesome runs in that game. He was a stud. Nothing fancy, but like I said, a mini Tebow. Would keep that read option up the middle and pound that tater in there. He was hard to bring down. Probably went for 195 lbs, if that.
