[Tyerman]

My predictions on the districts I know the most about:

 

21-3A

1. Pollok Central      DI

2. Central Heights      DII

3. Diboll  DI

4.   Woodville DII

 

22-3A (I agree with you here but can see some tiebreaker scenarios with Orangefield/EC as easily can flip both of them)

1. Kountze     DII

2. East Chambers    DII

3. Orangefield     DI

4. Anahuac     DI

 

23-3A (Toughest part on this district is 5 out of 6 coaches are brand new to the schools/districts, Anderson-Shiro in mix as well for 4 seed as they return a ton including best player. New Waverly had a couple of kids move out of district from what I have heard that were good players including their leading scorer. I predict District MVP will be Devon Vienneau for Onalaska.)

1. Onalaska      DII

2. Crockett     DI

3. Coldspring   DI

4. Trinity   DII

Was not aware of the two leaving New Waverly. With that being the case, I can see Trinity getting in there.

I thought about putting Central Heights in my top 4. Always well coached.

I didn't realize PC had a larger enrollment than Woodville.

Yes I only found out recently. And yes I was surprised too that they have around 50 more kids reported.

Let's see your preseason picks.

Brookeland will be D1 no matter what, they're the 2nd biggest in their district. Spurger will be D2 in that scenario.

If they'd gone to two divisions 15 years ago I bet there would be at least 3-4 more 4A championships in our coverage area in that time, maybe more.  I don't know if I'm a huge fan of it, but at least some of these big city schools won't get to just beat up on the little country schools.  Not sure of exactly how they're doing it, but IMO any 3A-4A school from a city of more than say 100,000 people should automatically be opted up to D1 in their division for the playoffs.

Divisions will be about enrollment.

Two largest of the four teams qualifying for playoffs will go DI, other two will go DII. 

This will be for this year and next. Nest realignment will have districts separated like football.

You are correct that there will be some districts that has all their schools with enrollments larger than every school in other districts. So it's likely you will have what some would consider DI schools still playing DII schools in the playoffs.

Kinda what I figured.  I guess if it's only lasting two years it's not too big of a deal, although they need to consider making all big city schools D1 in their classifications.

Did Tarkington lose a lot of guys to graduation? I thought they were pretty scrappy last year.

Yes but they moved up to 4A and that district is pretty good with HF, HJ, Huffman and Livingston.

Ahhh I got you. I didn't realize they made the move to 4A. That's tough.

That’s ok, this team likes playing the role of the underdog!!! I think some people predicted them not to make the playoffs last year either and made it to the third round.
