Probably have more pull than Southeast and Clarkdale. Quitman also got screwed in the process. Kind of agree with you if they were asked. St Andrew's does not follow their team. So whoever host them will be getting a smaller gate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarkdale to Alcorn Central or Kossuth is further than Ripley. North Tippah is further than Ripley as well. I simply do not buy what they claim to be selling. I am not sure if anyone is selling anything. I always thought regions were by mileage or in the same general area. Someone always travels further than others in th playoffs. Traveling from Meridian to the Tennessee line is an issue to be discussed further. I think it is reason to appeal. Noxubee has really never had to travel that far by finishing first in their region. Now they have travel to Booneville tomorrow. I would like their input. With 45 4 lined you don't have get off until you get to Booneville or Tupelo to gas up or pregame meal.

We are 15 minutes from Clarkdale & 30 minutes from Southeast Lauderdale yet we are not in the same region?!?!?! Instead we are stuck traveling an hour & half to Megee & Mendenhall!! U play one at home each year and the other on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other sports you have a region tournament at the end like basketball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebel Bert Posted yesterday at 03:18 AM Author Share Posted yesterday at 03:18 AM We're there any appeals? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pancho Posted yesterday at 06:03 PM Share Posted yesterday at 06:03 PM I'm not sure there were actual appeals, only some discussion that I'm aware of. I don't know about the entire state but some schools never had the follow up head count done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess is they will only except your number for classification on Sept 28th the last day to change. If travel to a region games is 2 hours maybe something changes otherwise less likely.

Rebel Bert Posted 8 minutes ago Author Share Posted 8 minutes ago According to the handbook once MDE certifies the numbers those numbers can't be changed. Then the director and his staff will place the schools in class and region. Region will be with mileage in reason. Then 5 days to appeal after being approved by executive committee. I think that's 5 school days and not 5 days being they had until be end of a at Thursday to appeal after they were posted on Thursday before.
